Track B4 is not listed in the tracklist. Spare and scratchy, this album is rougher and less even than the later efforts of Miss Marshall. Absolutely amazing is "Rockets" -- still one of her best in it's sweetness and sing-along-ability. "Headlights" is tragic and pained, and more driving (sorry about the pun) than most Cat Power songs. This is a wonderful rainy day album probably better suited to people who are already fans of her music, but absolutely necessary in a CP fan's library. Also: she's backed by Tim Foljahn and Steve Shelley, who add a whole different set of sonic youth-ey influences.. Cat Power - Rockets 1995 Live Sonic Youth's Steve Shelley drumming.. Its the first live footage Ive ever seen of her from the New York period. Her first three albums are so garagey and raw its unbelieveable and I think this comes across even more when you see live footage like this. .... her voice is even better live at this point. more emotional investment or something i guess. Cat Power - The Sleepwalker Next to "Rockets" and "Mr. Gallo" this is the best song on Dear Sir. I illustrated it with some cat power pictures and some random ones
