Natalie Merchant Live

One of my absolutely favorite albums-- just wish there were more songs. Thanks to David Hawkins for bringing her to my attention. Her live album is phenomenal. She was with the 10,000 Maniacs before going solo and their live MTV Unplugged album is also very good. For a complete retrospective get the Natalie Merchant Retrospective 1990-2005 album which is all you need without the live stuff.

Other songs of hers (not on the live album) which I love are:

Build a Levee
Jealousy
Kind and Generous
Saint Judas
Put the Law on You
Just Can't Last
Sally Ann
Children Go Where I Send Thee
This House is on Fire

I would love to spend a weekend at a concert featuring her, Alison Krauss, and Loreena McKennitt.
