Chan Marshall is one of my favourite vocalists ever, so I was pleasantly surprised to find out that her forthcoming album, the Greatest has leaked, three months ahead of its release date. Working with a bunch of Memphis session pros, it's soaked in slide guitar, horns, and a whole lotta soul. Make sure you buy this on January 24th. Until then, here's another sample (you can get the title track over at Matador) from the record. Those of you who have the Speaking for Trees dvd will recognize this tune.

If you're free tomorrow, you might want to head down to the Ukrainian Centre off of 16th and Ash from 11am-4pm to check out the record show. I'll be there, as I get great joy from sifting through boxes and boxes of old LPs.
