After a (weeks) worth of listening...

First of all, I Love Live Recordings. I also love great Americana and Alt-Country. This week I've been listening to Jame McMurtry and the Heartless Bastards - "Live in Aught-Three". I love this record! Makes me wish I was in whatever "bar" this was recorded at, standing at the bar, drinking' a few beers and enjoying the show........

Great songs and well played.......

Last week it was Alison Krauss, Windy City. I love the purity and pathos of her voice.

This week it's Sharon Van Etten, Epic. Especially Save Yourself. Eerily beautiful overdubbing herself.

K D Lang  "Ingenue"

I have 3 this week.

(1) A blast from the past, Steppenwolf "Live, at the Matrix". This has some very good songs. An imperfect recording as it’s heavy on the right channel and the vocals come solely from the right. Good to hear it again.
(2) My original copy of Iron Butterfly "Heavy". The sonics are extremely good. One of rocks great singers here as well.
(3) I just scored a EJ "Madman Across the Water" on DCC. Wow! Now I can listen and enjoy all of the greatness I had been missing.

@2channel8,

Thanks for the Sharon Van Etten post. I’ve got my copy out for another listen.
