  • Recently,I saw the credits for Jennifer Love Hewitt's show "The Client List". And I noticed the name LIZ PHAIR suddenly appearing in the music credits (2nd season.)
    Back in the day (the Nineties) LIZ PHAIR did several alternative-music albums for Matador Records. As a then-music reviewer for the now-defunct magazines DISCOVERIES and ROCK CITY NEWS,I was already aware of this artist. Ms.Phair often used controversial,sexual lyrics in her songs. But she was/is a solid singer-songwriter-guitarist. Ms. Phair,with her plain-sounding voice,nonetheless managed to be the Everywoman of the alternative-rock world.
    Recently,I did a spring cleaning of my collection...and found this remarkable clip. 3X more than you'll find elsewhere on RUclips. In early 1999 I was recording what I could off of analog,network TV...and this included some female rockers.

    One of the great female rhythm guitarists. She is known for her song writing, but underrated as an instrumentalist.

    I bought GUYVILLE when it came out, but it was this broadcast that turned me into a fan. I had it on VHS, but alas I no longer have a player. Thank goodness for RUclips.

    I came across this performance on KCET late one night. When Liz began singing I actually said out loud to the TV, "I don't know who you are, but you have my. UNDIVIDED. ATTENTION."

    Makes sense.....LIZ PHAIR mixed sex with music......so,worked for THE CLIENT LIST.
    But this clip shows LIZ at her greatest. :)
