The heirs to Lee Hazlewood and Nancy Sinatra ?


      No, maybe not just yet. But if anything approaches the genius of this sacred duo, it's Adam Green & Binki Shapiro's intimate record. The Moldy Peaches man and The Little Joy girl drew their songs naturally from their conversations, through which, according to Shapiro, they found at they were "each other's people". And their voices match as if they had been the response to each other's lullabies when they were still wearing diapers. Nothing new under the sun, but God this hauntingly beautiful song, Here I Am is very pleasant to listen to.
