Van Morrison - (Straight To Your Heart) Like A Cannonball
(Feb 02, 2012 - 14:30)
I like Van Morrison, but this one is not my favorite... next!

Fleetwood Mac - The Chain

Boy & Bear - Fall At Your Feet

I'm a big Crowded House fan and love the original, but this cover is really nice, too!  cool~ {#Cowboy}

Morphine - Buena
(Sep 29, 2011 - 12:57)

Crowded House - Into Temptation
(Sep 28, 2011 - 09:18)
I love it that RP plays a good amount of Crowded House and Neil Finn— His lyrics are stunners and his voice, beautiful {#Music}

Yes, she was very talented. She recorded a version of the song Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow for one of the Bridget Jones movies. When co-writer Gerry Goffin heard her version, he was so moved he cried.

Here's that version:

Talk Talk is great.  They really rise above a lot of other 80's stuff that hasn't aged as well.  And the singer's voice is always so instantly recognizable and cool

This is probably Lucinda's best album. The song "Drunken Angel" off this disc is partially about Townes Van Zandt, who was an old and dear friend to her and the other half of "The Twang Trust", Steve Earle.

If you like your rock and roll "Dixie Fried", this album is for you.

And all the flamers amaze me. They aren't worth responding to, leave it at that. The rest of us will just go right on knowing how much we lost with that helicopter crash. I heard him play Voodoo Chile last friday on an Austin FM station, my fav SRV song of all time, and I just had to go right in and listen to all 5 live recordings I have of it. It's good enough for me and I don't give a rat's ass what any of you idiots say. He was the best there was and Double Trouble were the perfect mirror to reflect his light.
