A new compilation by Ivo Watts-Russell, innovator of 4AD Records… very different from Robin’s compilation ‘Concentrated’… we had a lot of fun working together on 4AD and I appreciate their different view of what they saw in my music.
p.s. Ivo’s wish when he sent it to me was to ‘just listen’… no list of songs given…

In 2006, Lisa made Songs From Tierra Sabrosa available through her website and at shows during 2006-2007. Described as a compilation that former 4AD label head Ivo Watts-Russell created of Lisa’s music, the release featured selections of Lisa’s songs that spanned from 1991-2002, although no selections from Happiness appear with the exception of “Sycophant,” which is the version found on Inconsiderate Bitch.
Four years previously, Lisa self-released Concentrated exclusively through her website, which were selections by Robin Hurley, the former head of 4AD Records.
Both compilations, plus Rare, Unusual or Just Bad Songs, are very hard to come by and only rarely surface on trading sites like Discogs.
