lick my legs: pj harvey live in cologne, germany
sometime in 92 my view of women in rock went from one of pure indifference to unabashed rock hard cockery. the change of the starchiness in my lower extreminties was all due to miss polly jean harvey’s monumental debut, dry. dry was pure aural sex to me. it was everything i never knew i wanted out of a record. this was like nailin some chick that might not have bathed in a week, but still wanted you to do the deed - if you comprende? it was/is dirty and dangerous. on the flipside, liz’s exile, released a year later, was like your high school girlfriend, a lot of talk but very little action. dry was and is everything that exile is not, pure raw passion which very few records can touch.
i have only seen pj once and that was many moons ago, but i remember that for a woman that is quite small she sure as hell gives off a persona and presence that is greater than her stature.
here she is live in cologne, germany on april 29, 1995.

Down by the water has to be one of my all time favorites… it’s sultry, dirty, and innocent all at the same time. It was also very apropos at the time of my youth - the hard but naive rock grrrl. Sigh.

never really got into PJ that much. whatever i’ve heard i’ve liked though. her guest appearance with josh homme a while ago was cool.
Thanks so much!
I LOVE Pj Harvey, but
haven’t heard this era live much!
Great songs!
Or such.
Though, shouldn’t you have put:
Uh, it didn’t work, but it
was the cover of TO BRING YOU MY LOVE
rather than stories from the city album.
what you talkin bout sasha?
Great stuff, I saw her later that Year in NY, the gig still sticks in my brain.
