Julie Christie... she makes me go misty | Print |  Email
...with her good works, as you can see on this week's Website of the Week. No, this isn't Ms Christie, it's Lorraine Bowen of The Lorraine Bowen Experience, who sings a dynamite tribute to JC (hear a snippet in this YouTube clip from the film Better Than Chocolate).
 
Lorraine was on stage at the Royal Vauxhall Tavern for our engagement party in 2000 (well, we did see her perform at Duckie on our first date) and she's playing there again in April and June. In case you think I'm totally off-topic, Lorraine actually has several songs with eco themes. Not only are there two fab tunes dedicated to cycling ('Bicycle Adventure' and 'Matching Bikes') there's the informative yet entertaining 'Compost', 'Lost Love in the Recycle Bin' and the ode to vegetarianism 'Burger Song':
What goes into a burger?
What goes in between the buns?
If we knew the answer I'm sure we'd be more fickle
If we knew what we were chewing with our dill pickle!
 
Still, I confess a real soft spot for not-necessarily-green tunes such as 'Richard', 'Interesting Mail' and 'Cup of Tea in Bed'. Add a touch of 'Suburban Exotica' to your life: buy one of her CDs, pop to a gig or hire her for your next big party. Get a taster at LorraineBowenTV.
