EXTD=ategic Marketing\n\nOriginally Released June 28, 2005\n\nAMG EXPERT REVIEW
EXTD=: Duchess of Coolsville is Rhino's three-CD career retrospective of the wo
EXTD=rk of singer and songwriter Rickie Lee Jones, an artist who changed the fa
EXTD=ce of pop in the 1970s in her own way beginning with her surprise hit "Chu
EXTD=ck E's in Love." Since that time she has continued on a highly personal, o
EXTD=ften idiosyncratic path; one that does not always give the marketplace its
EXTD= due. Critics have celebrated and vilified her. Her hardcore legion of fan
EXTD=s has scratched their collective head more than once in the last 26 years,
EXTD= over her changes in direction, her sporadic activity, and even at some of
EXTD= her live performances. But Jones has always been stubbornly true to the r
EXTD=estless, sometimes tempestuous heart of the artist she is. Thank goodness.
EXTD= This collection, co-produced by Jones and Karen Ahmed, is an example of w
EXTD=hat every career retrospective should be. The three discs contained here f
EXTD=eature generous helpings from all of her studio recordings, as well as liv
EXTD=e material. Discs one and two present her catalog from Rickie Lee Jones to
EXTD= The Evening of My Best Day. In addition, there are some real rarities, su
EXTD=ch as "Easter Parade," performed with the Blue Nile, and the live version 
EXTD=of "Something Cool," released only on the cassette version of Girl at Her 
EXTD=Volcano. Jones' cover of Donovan's "Sunshine Superman" is here from the Pa
EXTD=rty of Five soundtrack, as is "Atlas' Marker (Aviator's Song)," her contri
EXTD=bution to Century of Song with Bill Frisell. But there's much more. For st
EXTD=arters, the set includes a whopping total of eight unissued demos, includi
EXTD=ng one of "Young Blood" and another of "Satellites." The sequencing is ano
EXTD=ther plus. While it may be irritating for those who like the "same old sam
EXTD=e old" of chronological style, or those who wish all album's tracks were k
EXTD=ept together, this method, as free-ranging as the artist herself, makes fo
EXTD=r a much more engaging , poetic, and surprising listen. It's a complete ye
EXTD=t utterly wonderful jolt to hear "Vessels of Light" from Ghostyhead follow
EXTD=ed by "We Belong Together" from Pirates, or "Bitchenostrophy" from The Eve
EXTD=ning of My Best Day preceding her read of "Bye Bye Blackbird" from Pop Pop
EXTD=. The package itself is elegant. It's not only full of photographs, but ha
EXTD=s essays by Hilton Als and Lee Cantelon, and Walter Becker; there's a long
EXTD= introductory poem by Jones, and testimonies from peers such as Randy Newm
EXTD=an, Emmylou Harris, Chuck E. Weiss, Quincy Jones, and others, as well as p
EXTD=eople Jones has influenced such as Stina Nordenstam and Tori Amos. It's ev
EXTD=erything a career retrospective should be and then some, and it places the
EXTD= artist in her proper context: as an adventurer with a fiery yet tender he
EXTD=art that expresses itself in song without reservation, artifice, or guile.

EXTD=ng-overdue Rickie Lee Jones compilation covering the years 1979-2003, she 
EXTD=decided to sequence most of the songs in alphabetical order. It's a unique
EXTD=, yet rather bizarre, concept that dispenses with all sense of continuity,
EXTD= either chronological or musical. While this randomness behooves an artist
EXTD= as willfully eclectic as Jones, it also makes for a rollercoaster listeni
EXTD=ng experience. Selecting tracks from 10 albums that alternately focused on
EXTD= folk, jazz, pop standards, and even electronica makes putting together an
EXTD=y compilation of Jones's work a tough assignment, especially since each of
EXTD= her records has a distinctive flow. The 34 selections on the first two di

EXTD=oshua Smith (CT, USA)\nThis is an awesome collection of Rickie Lee Jones' 
EXTD=work. Of course there are some glaring omissions as other reviewers have p
EXTD=ointed out. Still, I would have given this collection a full 5 stars if it
EXTD= had included the full version of "The Horses." Did anybody else notice th
EXTD=at the version included on this anthology has been shortened? They have co
EXTD=mpletely taken out the part of the song where Rickie sings "When I Was You
EXTD=ng, I was a Wild, Wild One." It's true that she sings this line in the son
EXTD=g "Flying Cowboys" as well and the full version of that song is included h
EXTD=ere. But, I always found it incredibly charming and cool that she sang the
EXTD= same line in "The Horses" and it is a shame that it has been edited out f
EXTD=or this release. So, we still have to go back to our unremastered "Flying 
EXTD=Cowboys" CD to hear "The Horses" as it was originally recorded. \n\nAMAZON

EXTD=w long listening to this essential collection.) From her eponomyous first 
EXTD=record to the "new" works on this set, Rickie has never done anything with

EXTD= voice is a pleasure, though an acquired taste to be sure. Nevertheless, h
EXTD=er influence on today's roster of performers is immeasurable. That "Juke B

EXTD=the fabulous Blue Nile is another reason to be grateful that this lady sti

EXTD=r 17, 2005\nReviewer: D. Monroe (Austin, TX)\nI own a lot of Rickie Lee Jo
EXTD=nes. I love her work. I disagree with the reviewer who thought the alphabe
EXTD=tical order of her songs was pointless. Since so many of her albums were--
EXTD=wonderfully--"set pieces," it's been great to hear familiar songs in unfam
EXTD=iliar contexts. It's as if I'm hearing some of these songs for the first t
EXTD=ime. \n\nHer music had a huge influence on a lot of the breathy girl singe
EXTD=rs since, who've served up her phrasing but in a watered down fashion. But
EXTD= she's really important, like Louis Armstrong, in terms of innovating, cha
EXTD=nging our conception of what a voice can do. Not to mention she wrote all 
EXTD=this music too. \n\nAMAZON.COM CUSTOMER REVIEW\nNot for Idiots, September 
EXTD=14, 2005\nReviewer: cattlovrr\nFor an artist of Rickie Lee Jones' stature 
EXTD=it says a lot about the mediocrity of the average American's musical taste
EXTD= that this album seems to have received only minimal coverage in the press
EXTD=. \n\nThis is a thinking person's album created by an obviously intelligen

EXTD=, but this collection is lovely. The remastering process has made a stunni
EXTD=ng improvement to the sound quality (which was already good!), and the "go

EXTD=Parade" with Blue Nile is a gem!!). Rickie Lee Jones is a remarkable music
EXTD=ian, a fantastic singer, a great arranger, and a genius with words. A very
EXTD= special lady indeed. I often wonder why she isn't as popular as the quali

EXTD=es "Jimmy James" (Canada)\nIf you like RLJ, then you will love this compil
EXTD=ation. Digital re-mastering is a big plus for some of her early hits inclu
EXTD=ded here. There are only a few songs which I hoped would be included but a
EXTD=re not on this compilation: "Ghetto of my Mind," "The Real End," and, "Rai
EXTD=nbow Sleeves." Also missing is RLJ's masterful renditions of "Walk Away Re
EXTD=ne," and "Under the Boardwalk." Thus, I can only give four stars to this o
EXTD=therwise remarkable retrospective. The third disc is very interesting from
EXTD= a songwriters / arrangers' perspective, with early demo versions that, in
EXTD= some cases, bear little resemblance to the versions which were eventually
EXTD= released on vinyl/disc. RLJ is a remarkably gifted songwriter and perform

EXTD=he people who review reviews on the British site seem not to have noticed 
EXTD=a very wise change in amazon's guidelines which now allows for comments on
EXTD= the sound quality of discs. Maybe I'll have more luck here in the States.
EXTD=... \n\nBecause the remastering standard of this Anthology is absolutely s
EXTD=uperb. Hats off to Dan Hersch at Digiprep and his latest equipment. Superb
EXTD= sound. I can hear tom-toms reverberating, bass strings resonating, it's j
EXTD=ust delicious, Dan. Thanks to you and Rhino for this invaluable update of 
EXTD=Rickie Lee Jones music. \n\nThe music! Well, she, RLJ, is a unique, gifted
EXTD=, and truly American artist and her eccentricities are well represented he
EXTD=re. Listeners who seek consistency of style and tempo might get frustrated
EXTD= by the alphabetical sequencing on discs 1 and 2, but if you are prepared 
EXTD=to go with the flow then relax and let this terrific selection wash over y
EXTD=ou. Particularly if you only know a few of her albums, in which case surpr
EXTD=ises will pop out at you all over the place. For me, new friends included 
EXTD=the old Sinatra number "Cycles" and the haunting "Sailor Song", blending i
EXTD=n successfully with absolute classics like "Flying Cowboys" (a massive fav
EXTD=ourite), "It Must Be Love", "Living It Up", and of course "Chuck E's In Lo
EXTD=ve". \n\nThe third disc is far better than most of these "odds and sods" a
EXTD=ppendages, with wonderful demos of "Easy Money" (developed thereafter by L
EXTD=owell George) and "Satellites" for example, and rarities like Donovan's so
EXTD=ng of romantic determination "Sunshine Superman" (performed in her most ch
EXTD=eerful uptempo style, from the movie 'Party Of Five') and "Easter Parade" 
EXTD=with equally unusual Scottish band Blue Nile (who are well worth separate 
EXTD=investigation, by the way). Everyone will enjoy different items here. \n\n
EXTD=But the full proof of RLJ's idiosyncratic brilliance is covered ahead of t
EXTD=his on the first two discs. Let me state the obvious - she has a fantastic
EXTD= voice. Soak it up, and choose your own favourites. Have fun making your o
EXTD=wn single-disc collection for the car! (Now - Warner/Rhino - do the decent
EXTD= thing and remaster all the original albums. Soon. Call Dan!). \n\nHalf.co

EXTD=ality of Jones's ever-changing musical vision.\nPlenty of Jones's best son
EXTD=gs are here, including her only true "hit," the poppy "Chuck E's in Love,"
EXTD= and "The Horses," a beautiful ode to her daughter, co-written with Steely
EXTD= Dan's Walter Becker. For the Jones faithful, the third disc is the real r
EXTD=evelation, since it includes a slew of previously unreleased live tracks a
EXTD=nd demos, in addition to collaborations with Dr. John, Bill Frisell, the B
EXTD=lue Nile, and others. Ideal for fans and newcomers alike, DUCHESS OF COOLS
