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.

Carmen Villain s excellent Perlita feels effortless, natural, and inevitable, says Bernie Brooks
This morning, at around 5:00 AM, I took the dog outside. Unbeknownst to me, it had been snowing – it still was. A blanket of the fresh, downy stuff lay on the compacted strata of old snowfall from the past couple of weeks. Big, graceful flakes drifted down in the bright night. I stood there in the quiet stillness for a while. Then, I brought the dog inside and went back to sleep. Later, as I made coffee, I put on Carmen Villain s latest cassette,
Perlita, and thought about the snow.
