EVERYTHING’s Changed On the Dance Floor – Jim Bogue remix
While tidying her computer this morning, Devon re-stumbled upon this out've-his-tree remix by Coventry's own, Mr. Jim Bogue, aka Jim Schmimm, aka Invitation to Love. Thanks, Jim! (I'm to blame for the crap vid, by the way. Just zoinked some pics of Jim's FB page & hit repeat.)
“The Big Shitty” – Line of Best Fit review
"Consistently imaginative with depth to each visceral vignette, Paul Curreri’s black-and-bluesy Big Shitty is sharply and compellingly wrought. Chris Jones takes a tour."
“So Bad,” (Baby Dee) arr. by PC
On Nov 4th, Paul is guest-performing one of Tin Angel labelmate Baby Dee's beautiful (but particularly terrifying) songs at an upcoming show of hers in London. Here he is working up an early, and early morning arrangement in Richard's newly dismantled kitchen -- Steve, Paul, and Neil actually did the dismantling. That's Mr. Mason Le Long's guitar.

Directed by Aaron Farrington
From Paul Curreri’s 2011 record, The Big Shitty, on Tin Angel Records.
Very special and sincere thanks to Mr. Aaron Farrington for so much, to Megan Huddleston for masterfully piloting her El Camino with Aaron in the back, to Jessika Flint for pre-production assistance, to Megan, Jessika, Jessica Shade and Devon Sproule for swimming round so nicely and pouring margaritas, to Jonathan Bartels for loaning me that poor little motorbike, and to Nathan West for introducing me to Jonathan. Without a doubt, my favorite afternoon of the summer.
“God Moves On The City”
I suppose I wrote this 9 years, and 364 days ago. I remember I was
sitting on a tractor under a big tree outside of Barboursville, trying
wrap my head around the news. I performed in NYC about a month later,
and my buddy Gus Powell
virtually grabbed me by the collar and demanded I play it. I was glad
he did. Devon suggested I post it today, and I’m also glad she did. It
can be difficult to align oneself with such a universal suffering. It
can be difficult to put aside the inclination to consider it more
privately, but I’m glad I do.
