“Long Snake Moan” by PJ Harvey

"Long Snake Moan" slithers out of To Bring You My Love, the 1995 album PJ Harvey made after the trio that bore her name broke up: her first real solo record, and one soaked in American blues. She wrote it alone and plays piano and Hammond organ on it, while John Parish, who co-produced the album with her and Flood, handles drums, percussion and organ and shares guitar duty with Joe Gore, over Mick Harvey's bass. Flood engineered and mixed.

The album became her breakthrough and her best-selling studio record, and Rolling Stone later ranked it in the first edition of its 500 greatest albums.
