padCD - Lost Cuts 1

Save Somebody
Nervous
Heart of A City
On The Other Side (live)
The Last Great Place

Alas, we don't have many left! Only available as part of The Works set. We're sorry! You can get it on iTunes, though (below).

The basics:

Janis wrote Heart of a City in the summer of 2001, began singing it in concert, and was immediately inundated with demands that we make it available on CD. What to do? No way we were ready to make a new record! Concurrently, the country was sliding into a recession... Janis liked the idea of everyone being able to afford to take home something from the show, so even though it cost us as much as a "regular" CD to manufacture, we priced it as a "Five bucks for five cuts" item. We picked the 5 current most-requested songs, and included them, then went to town with the cover!

Inside scoop: When Janis looked at the songs she'd assembled, she realized it was turning into a homage to NYC and the World Trade Center, where she'd played two weeks before the disaster struck. Hence the cover art. We were all in love with the demo of Save Somebody, produced by co-writer Jimmy Collins, and it seemed to fit the mood perfectly. And "Last Great Place", which was recorded for a Windham Hill special project that never got released, seemed to sum up everything we felt.
