Whats on your turntable tonight?

I mean, there is just something about The message (emotional transfer) of a song delivered by the maker of it.  “The Crossing” is very much one of those Experiences.   

+1

I saw AE in a small local club a couple years ago. He’s such a wonderful artist. (I’m getting chills writing this) Down to earth, no pretence,REAL!

FWIW, did you know Sheila E is a relative?

So what if the songs on “The Crossing” could be covered by a young Linda Ronstadt?  Might be a great collaboration.   Half the world wood swoon over them and the message would be delivered with Seductive strength but it wouldn’t be, well, as authentic as sung by the guy with the lesser voice who wrote them.  

Agreed my brother

There are a lot of covers vs. originals arguments of course. This is nothing new.
+1 slaw on “real”. Human. Authentic. Weight.

I am both shaken and stirred by the young Aoife.

Greg Liszt, the force behind this band is a fantastic and extremely innovative banjo player genius guy. College Science professor who quit to play music. Seriously, check out The Deadly Gentleman, his last band (he’s recently disbanded it return to teaching but now teaching banjo at Berklee). Deadly Gentlemen are bluegrass formation playing rock, rap, punk, fun stuff.
