The Space Lady - The Space Lady's Other Hits
Format : LP
Label : Night School
Catalog # : LSSN020
Genre : Experimental
The Space Lady began her odyssey on the streets of Boston and San
Francisco in the late 70s, playing versions of contemporary pop
music on accordion and dressed flamboyantly, transmitting messages
of peace and harmony.
Following the theft of her accordion, The Space Lady invested in a
then-new Casio keyboard and an echo unit, birthing an otherworldly
new dimension to popular song that has captured the imagination
of the world. Of her early street sets, only one recording was made, self-released originally on cassette and then transferred to a home-made CD.
‘The Space Lady’s Greatest Hits’ features the best of these recordings
- mostly covers of 60s pop and psych alongside interstellar originals
and features archival photographs and liner notes from The Space
Lady herself. “Greatest Hits” contains The Space Lady’s personal
favourites; her haunting take on The Electric Prunes’ “I Had Too
Much To Dream (Last Night),” a frantic “Ballroom Blitz”, and an unbelievably perfect version of “Major Tom” - amidst other reconstructed pop music. Originally released by Night School Records.
