Liz Green – ‘Bad Medicine’ (Play It Again Sam)

Life is good Again, one of my favourite songs (alongside ‘Hey Joe’) from Liz Green’s ‘O, Devotion’ album is now a single. ‘Bad Medicine’ is a slice of the peculiar, other-worldly jazz and blues riffs, over at times sparse vocal. Liz Green can, with cohorts, be  a tadge experimental, but in a good way Tom Waits, PJ Harvey or Mothers Of Invention. ‘Bad Medicine’ is compared to it’s brothers and sisters on the ‘O, Devotion ‘album, is a little more straightforward. But it is lyrically a rich dark story, in the the landscape of the better story telling troubadours. Great album, a very worthwhile single. 7.5/10
