It's been a while since we did one of these, so I figured, "why not"? I was just curious as to what everyone is listening to these days. Here's what's in the changer:

1.) John Mayer - Continuum: This guy is very impressive. This album is a nice mix of styles with some blues, rock, and acoustic stuff. I just saw him in concert and he was awesome. It's nice to see some good, young musicians having success.

2.) Bob Dylan - Modern Times: This CD just gets better and better with every listen. If you're a Dylan fan ... get it!

3.) Elton John - The Captain And The Kid: I just downloaded this and haven't heard the whole thing, but so far, it's very good stuff. I haven't bought a new EJ album in many years, but this one seems to be a winner. It's very much like his 70's stuff.

4.) Rush - Feedback: This is an EP that Rush recorded to celebrate their 30th anniversary. It's interesting hearing them cover Cream, Buffalo Springfield, and The Who among others.

5.)Al Stewart - Rhymes In Rooms (Live): This is a great live acoustic set by Al Stewart featuring Peter White on guitar, accordian, and piano. They both play Ovations on this one which should make it a "must listen" for OFC'ers.

6.) My own crappy Demo CD - 'nuff said :D

Scanning through my "Last 200 tracks played" on Napster...

- Phish "Farmhouse"
- Counting Crows "Films About Ghosts..."
- Gerry Rafferty "Baker Street"
- Mark Knopflerr and Emmylou Harris "All the RoadRunning"
- James Gang (various tracks)
- Bob Dylan "Modern Times"
- Sade "Lovers Rock"
- Seals and Crofts (various tracks)
- Billie Holiday (various tracks)
- Neil Diamond "Sweet Caroline"

and last but not least

- Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs "Lil' Red Riding Hood"

My mom gave me the new Tom Petty CD for my birthday. It (the CD format, not the music) almost seemed quaint. I've pretty much switched over to 100% Napster at this point.

Of the stuff listed, I'd really recommend the Knopfler/Harris stuff. Wow. She is SOOOOOOO hot.

Going retro lately -

- Steve Miller Band - Young at Heart
- Mama's and Papa's Greatest Hits
- The Who - Live at Leeds and Quadrophenia
- Stevie Vaughn - In The Beginning (Before the "Ray" was added, I guess)
- The Chieftains - The Long Black Veil
- Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

I also like to put Musicmatch Radio on and set it to an artist and similar - for example Elvis Costello - comes up with alot of cool music.

I'm usually just doing random shuffle on the ipod, but by coincidence last night I backed up my entire computer to one of those standalone drives, which takes quite a long time. Took the opportunity to actually sit down and thumb through come CD's.

"Death Cab For Cutie - Plans"

Good band! I've recently gotten into them. I've been thinking of throwing a song or two into our set, even if I'm the only one who knows it.

It's funny how time passes and things change.

I haven't used a CD player now is some time. It's either the iPod set on "Rock" or XM Radio set to Channel 49.

Is the Los Lonely Boys album as good as their first?

Is the Los Lonely Boys album as good as their first?
Depends on your perspective. This album is less acoustic, and a bit more produced with organ and horns. More Henry strat with wah and sustain than the previous album which is a-ok with me. Personally, I like the album a lot. Definitely not a victim of the sophomore jinx ... songs for the most part are well written, and the classic LLB dual lead (harmony) vocals shine through. The songs are a bit more personal, including one they do with their Dad (and a guest verse sung by Willie Nelson). If you liked the first album, you'll like this one. Blues ... Texican style.

Was lucky enough to see them live about three weeks ago ... from three rows back. Great musicianship all the way around. Susan Tedeschi opened the show and then came out part way into the show and traded licks with Henry, and her sax player took some measures too. Dad then made an appearance and played a couple of songs with the boys.
