Pop Kulcher Review: I finally got around to picking up this EP, released last year, and all I could do was kick myself for waiting so long. Barbara Manning was (until recently) a San Francisco mainstay, playing a lot of local gigs in support of her favorite indie artists while releasing a handful of solo albums (as well as albums with a rotating band of supporting musicians, the SF Seals). While her work with the band can be pretty fun, upbeat pop, her solo work places her somewhere between Suzanne Vega and Sebadoh's Lou Barlow; pretty acoustic pieces with poetic and articulate lyricism. She's long professed a love for the wonderful alterna-pop from New Zealand's Flying Nun record label (she did a cover of the Bats' beautiful "Smoking Her Wings" awhile back), and last year visited New Zealand and recorded a handful of tunes with various members of their rock underground (including members of the Clean, Bats, Verlaines, and Chris Knox, among others). The result is moody, subtle, and quietly edgy -- not too far afield from her own early solo work, but with some of the more jagged edges of the New Zealand scene slipping in now and then. It's a short album (30 minutes, a good third of which is taken up by a beautiful but meandering instrumental piece); but of the 6 vocal tracks, 5 are all-out stunning and absolutely worth having (the Chris Knox collaboration, like Knox's own work, is a bit too off-putting for this collection). Another notch in the belt of one of the greatest but least known female performers of the nineties.
