Just a quickie here – I’ve gotten several emails from people following my last big post on Mazzy Star, asking for the other two songs I referenced but didn’t include. Happy to share, they’re excellent:
Cherry Blossom Girl (Hope Sandoval version) – Air
Asleep From Day (with Hope Sandoval) – Chemical Brothers
Name: Heather Browne
Location: Colorado, originally by way of California
Giving context to the torrent since 2005.
"I love the relationship that anyone has with music: because there's something in us that is beyond the reach of words, something that eludes and defies our best attempts to spit it out. It's the best part of us, probably, the richest and strangest part..."
—Nick Hornby, Songbook
"Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of Fuel. Sentimental people call it Inspiration, but what they really mean is Fuel."
—Hunter S. Thompson
Mp3s are for sampling purposes, kinda like when they give you the cheese cube at Costco, knowing that you'll often go home with having bought the whole 7 lb. spiced Brie log. They are left up for a limited time. If you LIKE the music, go and support these artists, buy their schwag, go to their concerts, purchase their CDs/records and tell all your friends. Rock on.

Hope Sandoval has such a haunting and beautiful voice. Thank you for all the Mazzy posts.
I would appreciate the original of Fade Into You if you would be kind enough to post it?

Hello,
That air cover is almost as pretty as Hope herself. Thanks for posting it.

I’m dreaming of Hope Sandoval in 320. Maybe Santa, if you ever read this. Life can be better with a voice like hers, thanks so much for uploading so much beauty in this world…
