The Garden, a PJ Harvey Discussion Site

Surprised no one’s posted this here yet. You can hear Ben Wishaw discussing things he loves, including his friend PJ Harvey’s “The Garden,” on the new podcast Things I Love. They play a good chunk of the demo.

Great interview. I would love it if Polly herself was a guest on this podcast one day!

thank you for this. it's interesting how many times the live versions of certain songs are not reworkings but interpretations of her original arrangements on the demos (I'm thinking of 'Hook' when it was played in 1995 outside the trio format, or 'Water' on that same tour including her original solo note by note). makes me wonder if the 'Joy' demo will have the arrangement of the live version as well.

Thanks for the heads up! I really can't wait to buy this demo record. Hope it doesn't get pushed back again.
