“In me the rain has stopped falling. The fading light, walls barely white, in me the night has stopped calling.”
Trish Keenan died a year ago today.

“When Richard B Woodward wrote on Lee in the November 1989 Artnews, he referred to a photograph from 1970, taken in a Las Vegas motel room of me standing in a block of light against a dark wall, with Lee’s shadow imposed on my body. For him the picture read ‘as… a portrait of a marriage in which [Lee’s] photography has overshadowed both their lives.’ In a way, all of these photographs, not just that one, were formed because photography did indeed overshadow all four of our lives.”
— Maria Friendlander in her foreword to Lee Friedlander’s Family

This Mortal Coil, Ivy and Neet
(Filigree & Shadow, 1986)
Everyone loves This Mortal Coil for their ethereal covers of songs by Tim Buckley, Alex Chilton, Syd Barrett, Randy California, Chris Bell, and others.
Me, I love them for their sneaky Madonna covers.

I like her; I could watch her the rest of my life. She has breasts that smile.
