So, I have this new job that has many fabulous perks, but one of the best is I am only 6 blocks away from WXPN and World Cafe Live. WXPN holds a weekly Free at Noon concert every Friday, which is beyond amazing because this week's concert was the incomparable Adele!
If you don't know Adele, here is the poop!
She is an AMAZING soul singer from the UK
Her voice is very rich, and she doesn't do all of that horrible curly singing to get her point across
She has been nominated for 4 Grammys
She writes most of her own stuff, but kills the Bob Dylan covers she does
She is a size 14
She is 20 years old
her show was amazing, she has this intense quality to her voice that has the rare ability to come through on a recording the same way it does live.
The only real problem I have with her is that she didn't get up off of her stool the whole time, and didn't say thank you at the end of her set... she just walked off of the stage after her last song... it was very strange.
however, you should check out her music, download this from ITunes:
Chasing Pavements
or
Right as Rain
it's worth the $.99
