The real thing

Last Chance Texaco is such a brilliantly written memoir, her mind truly amazes me!

first two albums are fabulous

she is CRIMINALLY underrated 🥺 Living It Up is kind of one of the most expertly crafted pop songs of the 80s

One of a kind.

Song from "Pinocchio and the emperor of the night"? Anyone?

I love "Vessel of Light" from Ghostyhead, surreal.

I like how the songs build up.

I follow her since 1979 (✿◠‿◠ )

still can't get over how good the "ghostyhead" album is.

Rickie is one of the greatest singer songwriters ever.her voice is wonderful the first two albums self titled and Pirates are her best albums so many catchy melodies and check out Naked Songs live acoustic . I wish i could meet a woman like Rickie who is a muscian like me any songwriter should check out all her albums the ones i listed are her best!

first self titled is a classic.

What were the skies like in Arizona when you grew up?

Really underrated...

Y is s difficulft to track down a song and listen to it on Last FM it tries to take you all over the shop aman i ain't got time 4 that!!!

well the real thing comes and the real thing goes.....

so underrated [2]

She picked up all the right influences, didn't she, in her haunts? Blues, R&B, soul, folk, she's got them all in her work.

I am appreciating her other songs other than Chucky's in Love. You can't beat that little ditty. She sings with soul and heart. Where is she now?

Strange how 'On Saturday Afternoons in 1963', a tender little meditation on being a kid and learning to stop time has reached double the listens of her second most popular song on last.fm. It was not, as you can imagine, a hit in '79 (obviously the song's new-found success is due to its unlikely appearance on season 1 of a certain small screen medical drama), but it did come out as a single back in the day - on the B-side of Chuck E.'s in Love!

I finally got to see her. She performed "Rickie Lee Jones" and "Pirates" in their entirety. She was amazing.

aww, I'm in love c:

her debut album is stunning

very nice

What were the skies like in Arizona when you grew up? :D

Rickie Lee Jones @ The Tivoli, Brisbane 31st May 2010 [Live Review] http://lifemusicmedia.com/?p=9015 #review

Nerina Pallot did a cover of 'Skeletons' at a gig. It's very good, you should check it out :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tH6XPX6DCwY&playnext_from=TL&videos=Mp2ndSjReRk&feature=sub

Uploaded some new pictures - but vote for this one: http://www.last.fm/music/Rickie+Lee+Jones/+images/45289137

[track artist=the orb]Little Fluffy Clouds[/track] <3 I now she sued them for using the sample but its still a master stroke; a beautiful song. :D

I just saw Rickie in Seattle over the weekend at The Triple Door. She was terrific. Her voice sounds better than ever. Rickie's still making beautiful music. Check out the new album - it's some of her best work.

chuck E's in love <3

SWEET !!!!!

'Living It Up' from Pirates is sublime.

RLJ is one of my favorites. She was the precursor to Sheryl Crow. As a matter of fact, from the first time I heard Sheryl Crow, I've always maintained she was a Rickie Lee Jones ripoff. I do have to give Sheryl her props, though. She ripped off RLJ and then did what RLJ couldn't do, i.e., become a commercial success. I do wish RLJ would tour in the Heartland, though. It would be nice to see her in concert without having to travel to either coast!

yeah, happy birthday :)))

Happy Birthday, Rickie.

i'm going to see her tonight in poughkeepsie. <3

Check out Rickie performing Dylan - It's really amazing! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmlv-aEk9Xo
