Cat Power

OCD might not be the best precondition for a Rock Star career, but despite the ticks and fits Cat Power's Town Hall show was unbelievably good. And how many people get to have their videos shot by 'Kids'-writer Harmony Korine. But it sure helps to have a voice somewhere between Marianne Faithful and Dusty Springfield and a backbeat like Ben Webster or Dexter Gordon, which makes even songs like 'House of the Rising Sun' or 'Hit the Road Jack' sound fresh.
