This month’s Spin magazine has got a pretty snazzy oral history of Jane’s Addiction that is well worth checking out. It also has a brief interview with Liz Phair that actually goes a long way to putting her new disc into context and at least offering all the naysayers — including me — some justification that is difficult to argue with regarding her new direction.
Just think, just one year ago if you had told me that this year Jane’s Addiction would be releasing a pretty good album, Liz Phair would be releasing a pretty bad album and Spin would actually have up to two decent articles in their magazine I would have called you cuckoo!
Silly me.
