Like the PJ and Nick Cave references... Flaming Lips after midnight on Sundays works for me. The Harder They Come and Jackie Brown. Are soundtracks too lame? Junior Murvin and Desmond Decker always make me feel better. Bob Mould. Jayhawks. Yo La Tengo can also work wonders. Too eclectic?
Music for "Tough Times"
When you're feeling lousy, or maybe just had a tough day, what one LP, CD, tape, etc. do you play to make you feel better? In my case it's Cowboy Junkies CD "The Caution Horses". Margo Timmins voice is at once soft and soothing, but also haunting and immediate. This is music that I can get lost in. What music do others use on occasions like this?
