Light In The Attic's new compilation spanning Leslie Winer's criminally slept-on career is near-perfect and a must-listen, says Bernie Brooks
I didn't know Light In The Attic was releasing
When I Hit You – You'll Feel It, a long overdue, career-spanning compilation of Leslie Winer's work, until this past Friday. My partner and I listened to it for the first time as we drove to Toledo, Ohio, the following day. Toledo – home to a minor-league baseball team called the Mud Hens, a good zoo, a great art museum in the tradition of corroded Rust Belt cities, and a glass factory – is neither far afield from our home base of Metro Detroit, nor is it a particularly glamorous destination, but this was the first time we'd left our home city in probably 15 months.
