It's a bit of a landmark period for Joan Wasser - this album arrives ahead of her 50th birthday, her last studio album was the exceptional 'Damned Devotion' and last year we also got the self explanatorily-titled 'Joanthology'. Now she gives us 'Cover Two', her second album of covers - a particularly problematic undertaking for any artist, but one she has long-since proven adept at. As ever the choices are personal and therefore make for a random playlist - opening with a heartbreaking, lunging acoustic version of Prince's 'Kiss', and featuring The Strokes' 'Under Control' re-read as classy, sultry R&B. Talk Talk's timeless 'Life's What You Make Of It' becomes a surreal piece of sophisticated avant-pop, 'Out of Time' by Blur is turned into a breathy, enigmatic piano solo. Taking on some big pieces and coming out on top, we expected no less.
