You?
I had that problem back in the 70's & 80's.

I've listened to a ton of Lucinda Williams in the past two weeks, including World Without Tears, Essence, Sweet Old World, and my fav. Car Wheels on a Gravel Road.

Also, the new Sarah MacLachlan Afterglow. She never gets much/any mention around here. But IMHO she has a hauntingly beautiful voice - very unique - I can't think of anyone who sounds even remotely similar.

Joe Cocker Mad Dogs & Englishmen. A great album from way back.

Steely Dan Pretzel Logic

Live In The X-Lounge VI. Our local alternative station here in town does one album per year with bands coming to town for concerts. They are acoustic (MTV Unplugged type) sets performed in a small studio, and the station invites a select few listeners. The songs are compiled into a disc, and only 15,000 are made/sold. I have 3 or 4, including Vol. VI, the newest, which is pretty good. The lineup includes:
1) COLDPLAY - Yellow 2) MAROON 5 - Harder To Breathe 3) SEETHER - Broken4) SWITCHFOOT - Dare You To Move 5) REM - Losing My Religion 6) SALIVA - Always7) JASON MRAZ - Curbside Prophet 8) SISTER HAZEL - Your Mistake 9) SOUTH FM - Dear Claudia10) PETE YORN - For Nancy11) EVE 6 - Inside Out

Comps:
Tug's Grateful Dead set

Finchy's RHCP set - a very good comp if you like this music. Nice job FP.

Finchy's "Piece of Cake - 20 Years of Ryko". Quite a few unknowns to me, as well as some gems (Zappa, W. Zevon, Joe Jackson).
