On a Ricky Lee binge for the past few days, this is interesting. The association with the mysterious harmonies of Steely Dan ( disclosure: if you do not have appreciation for music from ancient modes through all period music, jazz, and across the world, your tastes may be limited which leads exactly to the radio genre dementia problem noted in interview) and her disclaimer of harmonic knowledge - listen to her ability to find rich melodi & harmonic variations since her debut - you will need to listen more. The basics of music formal training are ear training and sightsinging, rather than whatever is imagined. Yeah, too many musicians do not expand through formal learning, but Ricky had always been an explorer, which you, too, will understand with a bit of binging on her skilled vocal adventures. Arranging is merely a matter of having instrumental tone qualities ( overtone series differ, and when RL here mentions oboe, i hear it in my mind. Cor Anglais is detectably different to an ear like hers, even were she unable to conjure up the difference!) Mostly, she is SO COOL! I am curious about her present range, because of meeting a marvelous elder operatically trained soprano in their late 60s who retired bc of feeling her own laryngeal ossification (i forget the technical term) before it was noticeable at nonoperatic levels of output. Expect the unexpected from Ricky Lee, even if, like mself, you have lived with classical, baroque, renaissance, jazz, and all rock, folk, flamenco, and other genre roommates. She is an explorer, skilled beyond imagination.

Oh, #1:
Heart.
Wondered how she was!
If they make a movie of the book, Michelle Williams should play Rickie

Nice to hear from this inventive, creative "road sister" 🙂 She thinks outside the box. Wish her well on her future endeavors.
Wow, great Rickie interview 🎹🎹🎹
WONDERFUL REAL PERSON GENIUS AND SO TALENTED, YET A TRUE HUMAN BEING WHO SHARES HER TAENT AND DOES NOT SELL IT.
She is a wonderful singer/songwriter.
