(TV) review of 'land 1975-2002'



Review of Patti Smith's "Land 1975-2002":

http://www.flakmag.com/music/psmith.html
 The second disc is one of those "for 
 diehards only" affairs . . . Best of all 
 is the cut "Piss Factory," recorded 
 independently in 1974 (with Tom Verlaine 
 playing lead guitar) before Smith made 
 her New York splash. It may be a bit earnest, 
 even awkward in spots, but it's a fascinating 
 tale of working class resentment and anger, 
 and is the best example on these two discs 
 of Smith's ability to mix improvisational 
 poetry and rock riffs without compromise.
