#84 Anchorage -- Michelle Shocked (1989)


2013 was not a particularly good year for Barack Obama. It was a bad year for just about everybody associated with Washington’s NFL team. But it may have been even a worse year for singer-songwriter Michelle Shocked.


Not following either Michelle or entertainment world news all that closely, I didn’t become aware of this until recently, when I was trying to find “Anchorage” on YouTube. (Michelle apparently doesn’t like to have her material out there, so no link to the song from here.)

So maybe there is something to GrooveLily’s “Screwed-Up People Make Great Art.” It’s a shame, because she put out some great music in the late 1980s and 1990s.
