Re: "PJ Harvey Curates" [playlists of her favourite songs]
Surprised she seems to like The Doors so much. Morrison is often knocked as a dreadful poet. At least among those who study poetry. Then again, this is rock music and so lyrics are intertwined with the music. Lyrics that wouldn't necessarily stand on their own can still work within a musical ...

The live video streaming will be available here. Record it as soon as it begins because they always put archived versions with a cut after on the website. The resolution is going to be excellent as it is a cultural website created by French national television.

Re: "PJ Harvey Curates" [playlists of her favourite songs]
It is not her all-time favourite songs apparently, it was songs specifically chosen by her for her 180min radioshow she did on the BBBC radio 4 in 2014 in which people who deal with question of freedom of speech, were interviewed like Julian Assange.

Re: How do you feel about Polly's current musical inclinatio
There's a new road currently opening for her, something more soulful, a deeper music from within, with sorrow and hope of the same time : it is almost gospel by essence, she must enjoy Porgy and Bess :). The songs of THSDP have evolved live due to this rich brass section which brilliantly sounds ...

I heard a few seconds too and the sound was very low: they must encounter technical problems. Let's hope they're gonna find a solution

Re: Absolute favourite track off the "Hope Six"
River Anacostia is my favourite, it evokes the vibe of old Louis Armstrong records, jazz blues, an album like "Louis and the Good Book". It speaks to the soul, it is gospel, it is a beautiful music to soothe. I dunno if she has ever mentioned Louis Armstrong but he is one of the voices that a ...

Re: 2016-06-14 - Nuits de Fourvière (Lyon, France)
The live version of River Anacostia tonight was monumental and was a kind of fantastic tribute to what happened in the states. It made me think to Louis Armstrong , has she already mentioned him in interviews. There was a jazz blues feeling, her brass section sounded like some big band from Lousiana ...

Re: 2016-06-04 - Primavera Sound (Barcelona, Spain)
The live version of The Ministry of Defense is breathtaking, haunting, intense, it is much better than the studio version. And she enjoys herself again. There is fever, tension, a sharp quality that was cruelly absent on the LES tour. This is a fantastic show that Polly offers this year and it is ...

Re: June 1 & 2 - Le Bikini (Toulouse, France)
It is a 1500 seat venue (3000 tickets sold for both nights) and so far no complete clip, no excerpt has surfaced on youtube. Has youtube received messages from her management to delete live videos, let's hope it is not the case. It is pretty frustrating to only get 30 second clips from instagram ...

Re: PJ Sites
Thank you DrDark !
There are many interviews still available online but they are hard to find. I'd tried to find one fansite that collects all of them, (like the ones that exist for Radiohead) but didn't find any. Here's an old interview still online that is not archived at the Sirens Rising website ...

Re: PJ Sites
Is there a website where all her interviews for magazines are reproduced or shown with scans ?
