Kim Deal 30 Playlist:
Hi — turns out I love Kim Deal even more than I realized.
After revisiting her whole catalogue (Pixies, Breeders, Amps, solo) to make last week’s episode, I remembered just how deep my affection goes — the voice, the traditional songwriting, the experimental songwriting, the off-kilter arrangements, the harmonies, the humor, the sweetness, the nastiness…everything really. You can put on any album and be totally captivated.
Friend of the show Austin Kleon pointed out this quote from the late, great engineer Steve Albini:
I agree.
But, as I mentioned in the episode, her catalogue can be a little confusing, so for anyone who wants a little guidance, I’ve made a playlist of 30 of my favorite Kim Deal tracks.
