(29) Lovage :: Strangers On A Train

Lovage :: Strangers On A Train
First an apology - my inter-webs went out on Wednesday, and still aren't up (exactly).

Second, Nathaniel Merriweather presets: Lovage, Music To Make Love To Your Old Lady By, is one of the greatest albums ever created.

It's a sexy concept album with three major players. Nathaniel Merriweather is the one and only Dan the Automater (who has gotten his hands dirty with everyone from the Gorillaz to Glass Jaw). The primary male vocalist is Mike Patton, of Faith No More. The sultry vocals of Ms. Jennifer Charles are his accompaniment. Other talents are featured on the album as well, including the magnificent Kid Koala.

The entire album is sultry, sexy, and gets your libido pumping. Which I imagine was the intent.

Also an interesting factoid, several of the songs were named after Hitchcock films, including this one.

Grab some wine and i nice cigar and give it a listen.
