Like Neil Young and Joni Mitchell (to whom she's often compared), Rickie Lee Jones is an erratic artist in the best sense of the word. She's more interested in following her own muse than in musical trends. It's Like This (Artemis) is only her ninth album in more than two decades. It's great. She doesn't just interpret 11 hits ranging from Charlie Chaplin's Smile to Steely Dan's Show Biz Kids, she inhabits them. Jones' blend of wizened hipster and vulnerable child rings true and breathes fresh life into both Marvin Gaye's Trouble Man and I Can't Get Started. But her take on teh Beatles' For No One is a masterpiece.Her genius is not just in making these songs her own, but also in making them accessible.
