Slept- On: Dionne Farris The Lost CD The project that nobody heard is a brill assortment of grown woman songs with heavy, cinematic lyrics that have much in common with the full-blooded women of Pedro Almodovar films. "For Truth If Not Love" is more adult rhythm and blues than the altie-rock influenced "Wild Seed—Wild Passion," and is equal or better to anything a so-called neo-soul diva has put out in the last decade. Which is why it kills me every time I hear fans at a new Dionne Farris concert says: Why she ain't come out with anything since "Hopeless?" Well, she had, and owners of cuts like "Laughing & Crying," "Possibilities" or "So Blind" can probably catch a mint for those tracks since Farris recently pulled the project from iTunes and Amazon. But, never fear 2010 promises to bring a new LP entitled "Signs Of Life" with lead singles "Baggage" and "For U" already ready for true fans. Now don't miss out this time, not unless you were just a trendy granola-eating, back-packing Farris fan for play, play not for real, real. For truthseekers only. UPDATE: CD AVAILABLE FOR DOWNLOAD ON ITUNES.
