OK folks. Just wanted to follow up on the last post, "David Darling", which debuted the "Grey Gardens" material for You, the Listening Public. Here are two more cuts from the Jan 2014 sessions, down in Sei's basement in Station North, Baltimore. Roady, Dillo and I knocked out the backing tracks there, after which there was some overdubbing done back in the northlands.
"The Suitors Turned Away" comes from relatively early in the story, as "Little Edie" Beale has to face up to the fact that her marriage options aren't panning out for one reason or another in the big city, and back she goes to live with her mother on the Island.
"All in the Stars" pretty much wraps up the whole thing in uplifting fashion. The Beales, and Little Edie in particular, were a superstitious lot and, wrapped up in tarot cards and stars and dream interpretation and all, it's Edie telling everyone that she knows what's up and that everybody else has it "aaaawwl wrong!" Roll credits.
