New album stream on npr. Pretty sure Jim and Bo contributed on this baby....

Check out "Where Did I Leave That Fire" on some headphones! :shocked:
And "Night Still Comes". A pinch of Jim makes everything taste better!
I heard Night Still Comes and liked it a great deal. This sounds better to me than most of her other work. I never was a huge fan of her country-tinged stuff. I look forward to hearing the whole album. Don't forget that Bo is on it too.
i love her
So looking thru the liner notes Bo plays on every song that has any kind of keys and Jim sings on Night Still Comes. M. Ward plays guitar on several songs and sings on Madonna of the Wasps, a Robyn Hitchcock cover.
I think the album is pretty fantastic. I have not listened to a lot of her solo stuff prior but have recently ben listening to the new pornographers a lot.
I will be listening to her back catalog on rdio next few days!
I think the album is pretty terrific. The bonus tracks are quite good as well. I did a little write up for a friend's website recently:

I only know about four Neko Case songs but everything I hear I like. Great write up Ben. I might have to listen to more.
check out the live acoustic version of Calling Cards at the 49:00 mark of the podcast at the bottom of this blog post. Love that song.

I never thought about it that way. Good insight!
Just noticed Carl plays on two songs as well, including a very MMJish sounding solo on City Swan!
