In My Life<\/em> (1968), Judy Collins. Initially released in 1966 with a slightly different cover, this is the stereo mix released two years later. It was pretty common in the late 60s to re-release albums in stereo as this was when stereo was beginning to overturn mono sound.<\/p>\nThis album was important for not only Collins’ career, but also for another one of my favorite artists already featured on LP Mondays: Leonard Cohen. Collins’ cover of Cohen’s song “Suzanne” is often considered the first major introduction of Cohen to a much larger audience. This album was important to Collin because it established her more eclectic taste in music. She was a fairly popular folk singer, but this album saw her broadening her horizons in material she covered. From the Beatles title track to a Bob Dylan cover, from a pirate song to two Cohen songs. I’m really fond of musicians that pull from several musical backgrounds because I think it results in a richer musical experience ^^<\/p>\n
There are several great songs on this album and I was hard pressed to pick only two. The two I finally chose though were “Marat\/Sade” and “I Think It’s Going To Rain Today.” “Marat\/Sade” is a melody of multiple songs from the German play The Persecution and Assassination of Jean-Paul Marat as Performed by the Inmates of the Asylum of Charenton Under the Direction of the Marquis de Sade<\/em> (known as Marat\/Sade<\/em> for short) which was later made into a movie of the same title. “I Think It’s Going To Rain Today” is a Randy Newman song that I find extremely beautiful lyrically and musically.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Marat\/Sade – I Think It’s Going To Rain Today – Alright, here’s another fairly new artist to me that I’ve really been enjoying recently.
