Cowboy Junkies fans........

I know a lot of Audiogon members are Cowboy Junkies fans so I thought I'd put out this notice. The Cowboy Junkies new CD "Waltz Across America" is out and is excellent. The recording is Live, very good, and has some great new songs-- although a couple are pretty far out for me. If you've got a decent system, you'll think Margo Timmins is in your listening room. Highly recommended. Cheers. Craig.

I ordered all of the CD's that I do not have from the Cowboy Junkies website a few days ago (only had two from their listing). Total cost was under $90.00US for the bunch as they list for under $10.00US each. Good deal Aye?

Glad to hear from so many 'Junkies fans. I think I saw on their website, or maybe via their Junkmail (I'm on their email list), that the band is working on a new studio album to be released spring/summer-- looking forward to it. Happy Holidays. Craig

Waltz is a wonderful album. The version of five room is one of the best songs I've ever heard. These last two albums have that laid back 'Lava Lamp' sound that I haven't really heard (as much) in the last few years. Songs like Walking After Midnight, Postcard Blues, and Me and the Devil. All of their albums are pretty good, but there was a little bit of a 'commercial' sense that had crept into some of their recent albums. I felt like a couple of 'radio friendly' tracks had been thrown into them. These new albums are more esoteric, and sound more like 'their songs'. Opinions ? Thoughts ? (don't want to be anti-capitalistic)

The "Wad'O" CD's arrived yesterday, six days after my order. I have not had time to listen to them all, but "Waltz" is my favorite so far. Great live recordings and stellar performances that really project the thoughts and feelings of the songs. It is going to be hard not to wear then out.
