![]() Live performance and chat with Misty Roses (Robert Conroy and Michael Harron) (Click here for a video of "Address Book.") |
||||||
|
The dark and the dramatic elements of towering song from a bygone era are the stylistic embodiments of Misty Roses' music. Fronted by Robert Conroy and Johnny Perl, they channel the likes of Scott Walker, Dusty Springfield, Burt Bacharach,, Serge Gainsbourg, Jimmy Webb, Ennio Morricone and many other musicians who incorporate a certain sweeping orchestral sound into their work. Since carrying an orchestra with them is a bit out of the price range these days, Misty Roses often strips things down to an electronic version. Misty Roses strips down even further to an acoustic version with piano for their latest performance on Irene's show. |

Nice NICE song Irene "Only the Rain".....great for a Monday.... | |

Now that I don't know. Sparks seem to like women. I mean "otherworldly" if anything. | |

Van in Dallas:
Really loved that set. Was researching Laura Gibson and saw that same track of hers played a few days ago on Shrunken Planet :) | |

SteveF:
I looked for the track on Spotify - not listed...sadly | |
|
Mon. 11/28/11 2:41pm
Irene:
Steve, I do see it on iTunes, if buying it is your thing. Spotify doesn't have everything unfortunately. | |

I heard a blurb on the (other) radio saying Motian played well into his 80s. | |
|
Mon. 11/28/11 2:46pm
Irene:
Paul Motion was just 80, but a very young 80. My husband & I saw him play I think a little earlier this year. Very sad! | |
