Tuesday, April 01, 2003 There's something doubly scary about this: Neva Chonin's insists on referring to the band members by their first names, and seems completely unaware that she's pegged why today's retro might be so popular: Stripes' 'Elephant' -- unforgettable music / Album takes raw, powerful look at loveAt the same time, "Elephant," in stores today, digs deeper than treatises on waning romance. Recorded onto an eight-track tape with equipment built before 1963, it also testifies to the loss of raw immediacy in a digital world. Listen closely and you can hear the creak of a stool, the movement of hand on guitar as Jack shifts into the distortion of a slack, brilliant guitar solo. Increasingly rare in an age of seamless technology, these moments feel as tactile as a human touch. posted by Jeff Lester | 9:47 AM | |
