Another good reason for you all to check Patti’s website daily:
Patti Smith’s “iTunes Originals,” a full-length set of new performances, classic tracks and revelatory interviews debuts exclusively on iTunes on Tuesday, January 8. Structured around new interviews and performances recorded at New York’s Electric Lady Studios in the spring of 2007, the 90 minute “iTunes Originals” premieres new studio recordings of Smith’s “pissing in the river,” “ghost dance,” and “peaceable kingdom” as well as exclusive new versions of the Allman Brothers’ “Midnight Rider,” the Doors’ “Soul Kitchen,” and Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit,” featuring guest artist Steve Earle.
The “iTunes Originals” collection also includes the original 1978 studio recording of “because the night”; the 1996 digital remaster of “frederick”; Patti’s meditation on Kurt Cobain “about a boy”; “beneath the southern cross” featuring the late Jeff Buckley and John Cale; “one voice” (from 2000’s gung ho); “my blakean year” (from her Columbia Records debut album, 2004’s trampin’); and a mind-bending performance of her signature opus “gloria: in excelsis deo,” recorded live at the Royal Festival Hall in London on June 25, 2005 in celebration of the 30th anniversary of the release of horses, Patti Smith’s debut album.
I can’t get the link to work without spending way too much time, so just go feed your head and click on “ihavesomeinformationforyou” for the iTunes link.
