“Last Chance Texaco,” named for one of many memorable songs on that first album, additionally presents accounts of her problematic romances with Tom Waits, Lowell George and Dr. John. Musicians are hassle, nevertheless it’s music (beginning with childhood obsessions with “West Side Story” and Laura Nyro) that gives her stability. She has a breakthrough writing the gorgeous ballad “Company” — “a visceral, tortuous process … these were pure feelings as airy and unrooted as a color or a tingle.”

There’s an in depth description of a genuinely odd, fantastical encounter with Van Morrison at an Irish music pageant, however she principally breezes by her final a number of a long time, through which she has continued to make attention-grabbing, if much less celebrated, new music, and grew out of simply being “the girl in the red beret.” Still, Jones paints a putting, distinctive self-portrait.

✹

‘Rihanna doesn’t a lot sing as bluntly bat on the sound.’

Rickie Lee Jones and Sinead O’Connor would discover themselves amongst kindred spirits in Lesley Chow’s YOU’RE HISTORY: The Twelve Strangest Women in Music (Repeater, 147 pp., paper, $14.95). The slim, sharp guide considers a spread of feminine artists from Janet Jackson and Taylor Swift to TLC and Nicki Minaj, a bunch that the Australian cultural critic Chow views as “outliers, marking moments where the culture might have swerved to incorporate their influence, but somehow contrived not to.”

Chow’s actual premise is that music writers have their priorities all unsuitable, that they analyze lyrics slightly than sounds and that the pop canon “too often … venerates the same old stinging monologues and obvious cynicism.” Of course she’s proper — it’s a lot simpler to write down about phrases than about music, particularly if phrases, and never music, is the way you make your residing. And she’s right that one impact of this tactic is to attenuate the contributions and achievements of feminine pop singers, who’re so usually dismissed as minor figures subsequent to the Dylan/Cohen axis of rock ’n’ roll “poets.”

Chow makes the case for a few of her topics extra convincingly than others, and some of the ladies — Kate Bush, Shakespears Sister — resonate far better within the U.Ok. than they do stateside. (The subtitle can also be an pointless distraction.) But she persistently delivers observations which are bracingly good and authentic: that Taylor Swift is “as enamored with fashion as Fitzgerald was,” that “Rihanna doesn’t so much sing as bluntly bat at the sound,” that Janet Jackson’s finest music is outlined by a “fascinating tension between rigor and relaxation.”

“You’re History” shows the significance of those particulars, however they’re in service of a better level, which is to attempt to grasp music’s mysterious and unknowable essence. “The best pop songs are not ‘universal,’ but unaccountably specific in their detail,” she writes, noting elsewhere that to grasp a music “involves trying to digest the emotional meaning of sounds — something that criticism has historically been reluctant to do.” Chow writes usually of the wordless components of singing, musing early within the guide that the story of pop might be informed as a historical past of the “oohs” in songs — main, inevitably and delightfully, to the appendix: “The Greatest ‘Oohs’ in Modern Music.”
