Review of Interview with Juliana HatfieldI totaly underscribe the review by kerry made earlier. But even diehard fans of Hatfield can miss this one. 1. Who learned Clinton Kerby to interview? Wasn't the first lesson: listen to what the person next to you says? Kerby also doesn't finish questions and start smiling, intimidated by the mood of Hatfield. This is where the train leaves the track, and as a listener you feel the voyeur of an emberassing conversation.
2. Please make this kind of pop-interviews on location and not by the phone. If only for technical reasons a must. The quality of the phoneline is not good, especialy in this case where Hatfield speaks very soft. On location you can do close-miking and even make someone wispering sound good. Besides from the soundquality I am sure Kerry would have adjusted to the mood of Hatfield a little more if he would have been on location with Hatfield and the interview would have come out a lot better.

Review of Interview with Juliana HatfieldIn this interview, Juliana Hatfield joins WUSM Music Director Clinton Kirby by phone. Kirby mixes the converstation with select cuts from the latest Hatfield album, "In Exile Deo". Kirby's eager questions reflect his knowledge and appreciation of Hatfield's career. Hatfield's melancholic responses are often confrontational, bordering on the hostile. Kirby could have edited out the awkward interactions that ensue. Instead, he let's the tape roll, giving the audience a revealing look at this idol/idolator interaction. The finished product likely will appeal to die hard Hatfield fans who relate to her attitude. |

Review of Interview with Juliana Hatfield
A very enjoyable interview. Juliana reveals a lot about herself, and gives the listener an insight into her muse.
The interviewer does a fine job. He's a big fan, and does other fans of JH a favor when he accidentally elicits a tidbit like "But you don't know me" from her.
I didn't find the telephonic nature of the interview distracting at all.
Her comments show a complex and remarkable talent.
The cuts from her album were outstanding, as well.
