Music reviews of Live at Jittery Joe's
Music Review: Pre-Aeroplane
Rating: 5 Stars
This is a must have for any NMH fan. It's a live set that pre-dates the release of "In the Aeroplane Over the Sea" by a good bit. The entire set if Jeff Mangum and an acoustic guitar. The sound isn't always great and a lot of background noise is present. As far as I'm concerned, this only helps create the atmosphere in which Mangum created his best stuff. At points it's almost painfully intimate. I'm sorry I never saw him when he was performing and this live album only fuels my disappointment because it really is great.
Description of Live at Jittery Joe's
Live at Jitter Joe's is a long-rumored recording of the Neutral Milk Hotel lead singer performing at an Athens, Georgia, coffee shop in early 1997. His set includes selections from On Avery Island and In the Aeroplane over the Sea (the latter of which would not appear for another year), a generous portion of B-sides and unreleased tracks, and a heartfelt cover of Phil Spector's "I Love How You Love Me." It's enthralling to hear these songs in such a casual, unadorned setting: one envies the small crowd in attendance. Mangum's clearly having fun, joking with the audience and asking for requests. It's particularly revealing when he refers to "Two-Headed Boy, Part II" as a song that "will probably never come out or anything," and spontaneously decides to merge a short hymn to Jesus with "Up and Over We Go"--a medley that would later turn up on record as "King of Carrot Flowers, Part II and III." Also included: a QuickTime video of the entire set shot by video director Lance Bangs. It's just Mangum in almost complete darkness, with a few colored lights hanging behind him and a small child cavorting in the background. The visuals are sweet yet mysterious--the perfect accompaniment to these brilliant songs. --Mike AppelsteinGeneral CDs
