Tanya said herself that it`s ‘Chet Baker mellow’ so I guess even quieter than her previous album.I love Tanya and I`m looking forward to this new album
yeah, she’s pretty cool … when i was at boston university i had a photo journalism assignment where we had to take a pic of a famous person + my famous person was tanya donnelly
… she was at tower records on newbury st, signing the 1st belly album w/the rest of the band … she was v.gracious + cool about it + she let me take 2 pix … unfortunately during the developing the 1st few shots on the roll (aka the tanya pix) stuck together, so i couldn’t use them 
… how bummed was i ?!?

That sucks
she`s always very nice on her message board answering questions from everyone,Kristin too oh right, that’s v.cool of her …
:aliensmile: …i just love her voice … it’s beautiful
…i forgot to mention that around the same time i was living w/some people who were tanya donnelly crazy + they clued me up to this show she was playing at some club on lansdowne st in boston … it was probably the small one (axis) + it turned out to be her v.1st belly show which was w/o a full band + i was so enchanted by her songs + her performance that night … i have to say that after being at that show, i was a teeny bit disappointed when the 1st record came out b/c the songs were so polished + she had a full band then + i guess i just wished she had kept it stripped down + live sounding … that’s not to say that i didn’t like it … but i guess i didn’t like it as much …
