Indigo Girls, Look Long, 2020 on Rounder Records

15th album from Amy Ray and Emily Saliers, with guests including Lucy Wainwright Roche, Lucy Jules, and producer John Reynolds. Recorded at Peter Gabriel’s Real World Studios in Bath and Reynolds’ own New Aer Studios in Kilburn.

Loved seeing the Lilith Fair documentary Building a Mystery and the role Indigo Girls seemed to play in bringing the musicians on the tour together as a community.

My copy—direct from Rounder Records store—is the standard black vinyl 2xLP pressing with a gatefold and lyrics sheet.

Indigo Girls, Indigo Girls, 1989 on Epic

Sophomore album from Amy Ray and Emily Sallers, with their massive breakout hit “Closer To Fine.” Michael Stipe guests on “Kid Fears” and Hothouse Flowers guest on multiple tracks including “Closer to Fine” (which recently had a revival as it appeared in the movie Barbie).

My copy—via A1 Records in NYC—is a promo copy labelled with WDFH-FM, which is a public radio affiliate in Westchester County. It probably had a hype sticker or inventory sticker on the front cover as well which a previous owner removed. I know some people hate a cover that is “marred” but I think it just adds some provenance and color. :shrug:

Indigo Girls: It’s Only Life After All

Indigo Girls: It's Only Life After All is a documentary as unique as the Indigo Girls themselves. It uses lots of saved movies and photos belonging to the Indigo Girls as well as interviews and concert footage to tell the story of their career and growth as musicians and as people.

Indigo Girls: It's Only Life After All, directed by Alexandria Bombach, has an edgy feel that totally befits the life and history of the Indigo Girls. Amy Ray and Emily Saliers tell their story with open [...]

Springsteen and “Born to Run”, Amy Ray and “Romeo and Juliet”, tonight I saw Death Cab play “We Looked Like Giants”. Makes me wish I’d had the foresight to see the Dire Straits do “The Man’s Too Strong”. These are the #songs that stay with me, and I am lucky to have seen them.

It was Amy Ray who, in 2001, who sang:

“Janny Wenner Janny Wenner
Rolling Stone’s most fearless leader
Gave the boys what they deserve
but with the girls he lost his nerve”

Weird it took two more decades for the rest of the industry to get to this point.

Whoo hoo now.
