MS Led - Music and MS
– Shawn Telford
“Do we dance or do we riot?” is the question that seems to drive the new album from Seattle’s Ms. Led. At the center of the band is Lesli Wood, a spunky singer with a keen ability to howl, growl or snarl — and just as easily lure listeners to the bedroom, occasionally in the same song. Her dexterity is matched only by her capacity to turn a phrase, which tend to be straightforward, politically charged and largely feminist pangs that would be didactic in the hands of a lesser wordsmith.
….
Some of the CD’s finest moments, however, are also its most personal.
“Fools,” a gorgeous, complicated swan song, which closes out the
record, appears to be about relationships. But when you listen closer,
it’s about inevitability, or in Lesli Wood’s case, her fight with
multiple sclerosis.

Hi, I apologize for the ‘form’ letter but it is the easiest way to pass word most quickly.
I am thrilled with the response to the MS Blogger project started at my blog, Brass and Ivory. I appreciate all those who took time to post about it on their blogs. I have discovered even more bloggers who have MS, whether they blog about the MS or not. A new listing is available at MS Blogger Community Project Revised.
Secondly, I’m looking for submissions for next week’s Carnival of MS Bloggers. Information can be found at the end of each issue archived at Carnival of MS Bloggers. What I’m looking for this week are posts related to creativity. I discovered so many new bloggers who quilt, or knit, or crochet, or write, or photograph, etc. Basically, what do you do to express yourself?
Thank you so much for participating.
Lisa Emrich
P.S. I also apologize for any increased ’spamming’ of blog comments due to my growing linklist of bloggers with MS. For that I am sincerely sorry.
