This week's guest spot from the delightful Mrs S: I've heard that her 12-egg carbonara has to be tasted to be believed! So I will be placing my order in advance please!!
So ... picture this attractive scene: Jon & I collapsed on the sofa some considerable time after we should have gone to bed sort-of watching Jools Holland. I had just decided it was time to stop arsing about & actually go to bed when someone new appeared on stage and distracted me (not a tough thing to do.) The someone was a girl with a guitar and to be honest I didn't pay much attention because that was not extraordinary in itself. Still, I stuck around to watch, mostly because I still couldn't be bothered to go to bed.

KT Tunstall started out busking and is in my opinion still at her best left to her own devices with as little accompaniment as possible. Proof of this if proof could possibly still be needed:-

Tulis commentsAh.. The fantastic 'Delay Modeler' pedals.... they entrance me all the time especially because when there's no room for error! Great versions, hadn't heard "I want you back" and I like it! Agree that she's probably best to see in her busking best!
ReplyHoly moly! I sort of liked a few of her songs but if I had seen that performance on Jools Holland, I would have been blown away and probably a big fan! It gives "one man band" a whole new meaning!
ReplyMrs S, you are spot on. I remember seeing this 'Later' performance and being similarly knocked out but, again, being a little disappointed as she became a 'name' artist and added all the usual 'production values'. I'd love it if she got back to basics. I saw a video of her doing a guest post on US radio station KCRW's 'Morning Becomes Eclectic' back in the early was and it was equally entrancing. I expect you can still find it on their web-site.
ReplySometimes things are best when they are stripped back and you can see the raw talent. 'I Want You Back' proves it. Thanks Kate for sharing this, I never saw KT Tuntall do this on Jools Holland and I now see her in a different light.
ReplyKnocked out by both performances, downloading both from Utube, 'I want you back' my favourite MJ. I have a couple of Dylan Covers by her but I really sort of dismissed her, my loss. Thanks for putting back on the S&N.
