Lyle Lovett - Pontiac

Good choice. Probably my favorite of Lovett's albums.

I just got it, and likes it quite a bit already. Next will be The Road to Ensenada.

I remember the '78 Stones tour, but didn't see it. My loss!

Another excellent album. The Live in Texas album is also fantastic, plus it's Texas.

This is the first live stuff I've heard from that tour. It's quite good. I picked up a bunch of live Stones over the last few days and am working my way through it.

Was playing along to this a few minutes ago. I think it showed me yet again I should have been a horn player instead of a guitarist. I couldn't quite pick up the rather simple guitar parts, though I did correctly figure out the underlying chords. However, I was able to figure out the entirety of the sax player's input the second time through. I've always been good with melody. Rhythm and harmony not so much.

Bruce Springsteen - Wrecking Ball
Quite an interesting mix with a few really good songs. It needs a few more listens. The extra tracks have a great live version of "Wrecking Ball". "Rocky Ground" can be ignored.

Taking a little trip in the wayback machine for this one.

Today's playlist brought to you by the fact that I'm going to my favorite Ethiopian restaurant for dinner tonight.

Just read about this over at No Depression and thought it sounded like something worth checking out.

I have their new album, Leaving Eden, on order. I'm really enjoying their old time county blues-bluegrass sound. They pull off the authenticity well, and her voice is great. I'm sure you'll like most of their songs as well.

Its funny how my tastes have shifted back and forth over the years. I liked bluegrass-country mix some while growing up, including a cajun singer/fiddler named Doug Kershaw. I'm appreciating various American roots styles much more these days.

First listen. The previous album was like musical crack.
