Letters To Cleo: "Here and Now" [Live in Los Angeles, 2008]
Probably no secret that we've still got a soft spot for "I See" and "Here and Now," which
were, for a certain generation of Boston musician, the gateway drug to
girlie power-pop. LETTERS TO CLEO kick off a sold-out, two-night homecoming at the Paradise tonight and tomorrow, and if Kay Hanley has anything to say about it, this is a one-time-only affair -- so everyone is hereby encouraged to make the most of it. We chatted up Kay and drummer Stacy Jones, who relived the best (and worst) moments from the band's history, gave props to their new boss Miley Cyrus, and talked good-natured shit about each other.

And in case you've forgotten how fun LTC were in their heyday, here's the full set of their 1995 show at the legendary Fort Apache studios, fresh from the WFNX vaults:
