One of the great bands of the last 20 years—largely unsung or ignored altogether, except for the hit, "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me," whose hooks were written by Matthew Sweet.

Perhaps not.

Mother Hips, Bob Schneider and Al Stewart come to mind.

That said, "Tomorrow Green Grass" will always be welcome in my CD tray -much like "Later Days," "I'm Good Now" and "Past, Present & Future".

Indeed, "Rainy Day Music," "Sounds of Lies" and "Hollywood Town Hall" are also gems.

Alas, they've disbanded. But the Golden Smog and Louris/Olsen material I've heard also strikes me as outstanding.
 
At the recent show at the TLA in Philly they announced that they would be releasing a new CD, with Mark Olsen!, at the end of March or in April and are planning a summer tour.  They played several new songs and they were all very good.

Since there was only one Philly show, they did a mix of Tomorrow and Hollywood.

Are you seeing the "Hollywood Town Hall" show or the "Tomorrow The Green Grass" show?

This ensemble always takes me back to living in Minnesota.... Hearing them now, I still go back to the first time I heard them and love them just the same but even more. They had a sound that was indescribable, it was more an experience or a  remeniscence of somewhere lost in time or perhaps a place that never existed but in my mind. I wish their members all the best and keep on with the great work... "wherever you are"...

I bought this on cassette when it first came out, and played it to death. I probably still have it somewhere, but I don't have much of a cassette player anymore. Guess it's time to break down and get it either on CD or MP3 (except that I don't have an MP3 player, either, except on my computer, and it's pretty hard to drive down the road with a computer in the passenger seat.)

Time to upgrade..... {#Dancingbanana}

the whole cd is fab, but this is one of my favs!
 

This album even made me appreciate a Grand Funk tune ("Bad Time"), and I certainly thought the chances of that ever happening were less than zero...

Thoroughly enjoying Bill and Rebecca's "run" music today.  Maybe I'll be lucky enough after this month to "run" down to Costa Rica.

I'll fourth that - or fifth that!  I especially enjoy their more "alt-country" leanings like this tune.  That being said, their poppier stuff is great too.
 
6th that!  What day is it again??

I'll third this comment! The Jayhawks are underrated.
