I like the studio sound better. A great song none the less.

Saw 'em live 5 or 6 years ago, maybe even 7. Hated 'em! But I keep hearing songs since - in large part due to RP - that I like. So I don't know what went wrong that one night. I hadn't heard anything by them at the time - don't know whether that had anything to do with it or not.

 
I had a similar experience with Cowboy Junkies when they backed up Sting.

Yes but they are nothing without their reverb.  It has to be a cavernous hall.

I agree.  I've heard some of their stuff, but nothing really pulled me in for repeat listenings, up until this one.

Maybe it's the live vibe, but this one's good.

It is because there is too many people in NYC.

I like MMJ, but this particular song comes in somewhere below country. . .

Even if I don't really like country - this song just doesn't sound like country - when I find some country song here it's almost everytime a great song.

This song here reminds me strongly of some Runrig songs, especially the guitar sounds like played by MacDonald.

I generally don't like country and western music but I'm amazed at how much alt country I am enjoying here at RP:  Neko Case, Calexico and My Morning Jacket.  And yes, I like the way he sings!

I was definitely digging the edgier guitars on this.  Next time, I'll have to pay more attention to the vocals...

Bill must be getting himself jacked up for the weekend.  He's really playing some music that has me turning up the volume here at the office.

He plays a song, it completes and I turn down the volume because I think the next one will be a dud, BUT NNOOOOOO!

The next one's even better and I turn it up again.

Great Thursday Bill.

Thanks!{#Clap}

In order for my ratings to follow some kind of bell curve and actually make statistic sense I'm going to have to start adding stuff in the 1-4 category. This track will do nicely as a counter to all the tens I've awarded.
 
Hah... totally agree.

My ratings are VERY top heavy... just never feel the need to rank something I utterly hate.  This one just isn't good though.  Lots of folks here like it so, more power to them.  Can't like everything here...

...single tear trickles down one's cheek as he thinks about past loves, past pain, and the past hayday of "a-wee-ohm-bohm-bohm" singing; an era now gone, to be forgotten by later generations.
