Performer Notes:

• The Corn Sisters: Carolyn Mark, Neko Case (vocals, guitar, percussion).
• Recorded live at Hatties Hat, Seattle, Washington in May 1998.
• Audio Mixer: Scott McCaughey.
• Recording information: Hatties Hat, Seattle, WA (05/1998).
• Photographer: David Walega.
• The Corn Sisters are Neko Case and Carolyn Mark, a couple of alternative rock converts to traditional country music. (Case has two very fine albums on Bloodshot). Like most converts, theyre pretty zealous, but with their excellent voices, harmonies, warmth, and humor, the Corn Sisters are way out in front of most of their alt country peers. OTHER WOMEN was recorded live in a Seattle restaurant, and what it lacks in fidelity it more than makes up for in enthusiasm, impertinence, and unadulterated vocal power.
• Case has an Appalachian wail like a young Loretta Lynn that lets you know shes not a woman to be trifled with. Mark is Patsy Cline to Cases Lynn--sensuous, robust and worldly-wise. High points include a poignant version of Nick Lowes "Endless Grey Ribbon," the sanctified gospel rave-up "This Little Light," and the mirthful, insanely catchy "Corn on the Cob." For those whose definition of country leans toward Dwight Yoakam, Kitty Wells, and The Carter Family, OTHER WOMEN is highly recommended.

Professional Reviews: Spin (4/01, pp.156-58) - 6 out of 10 - "...Like everything that Neko Case is involved in, what begins as a genre exercise careens with singular personality....hopping through less-predictable song choices and the originals are pretty fine too..."
