THE IMAGINE PROJECT – HERBIE HANCOCK

dave@weheartmusic.com July 10, 2010

In the liner notes Herbie Hancock apologizes to anyone he may have left out. After listening to his latest album, The Imagine Project, I wonder who it might have been. The purpose of the project “is an effort to show the power and beauty of global collaboration as a golden path to peace.” How do you do that? By inviting everybody to be on your album from Pink and Chaka Khan to John Legend and Seal. Even my two favorite bands, Los Lobos and The Chieftains make an appearance, as well as international stars like Anoushka Shankar and Juanes.

Peggy Sue at the 400 Bar, Minneapolis (6/15/10)

vusleeper June 18, 2010

I can't help but think of Buddy Holly when I think of Peggy Sue, but clearly this Brighton-based band doesn't sound anything like Buddy. For one thing, they are supposed to sound like modern indie-folk, particularly with their opening song "The Shape We Made" with the brilliant line: "his pretty eyes will soon grow tired".
