Rest In Peace

I loved her songwriting. She was a huge influence on me, one of the people who taught me through her example how lyrics could be so much more than what you see on the surface. Her song “Barren an Egg” is just one example of her amazing artistry and craft, and I have shared her song “Heroes” with so many people.

I am going to miss her presence in the world.

Just came here to report the same. Rest easy Brian.

Jill Sobule has died. In a house fire. I talked to her on the phone 8 days ago. I am having a difficult time processing this.

I was only a little more than vaguely aware of Jill Sobule but everything I heard I liked and she was awesome in the couple of interviews I heard on the radio back in the day. I watched the videos and was caught up a little bit. Anyway, sorry you lost her. She seemed great.

Neither Brian Wilson nor Sly Stone were big in my listening habits but they were both great artists. Kinda makes you think.

Probably kinda niche for this place... but Douglas McCarthy of Nitzer Ebb 58.
