MAE WEST

 


You might not think that this shit is important....you also might be wrong. "Why Don't You Come Up And See Me Sometime?" said Mae West. Said the woman who slurred "When I'm good, I'm very good. But when I'm bad, I'm better" and a thousand other quotables. In a way, this listens like a salon Americana version of a Reiko Ike film....but maybe that's the tail wagging the dog (without the blatant sex). Check the key solo in "Frankie & Johnny" and just known that West was light years ahead of her time.
