Whats playing on your system today?

OK Guys, for you fans of Alt-Country/Americana I’m going to recommend a recording I’ve recommended a few times in the past. I believe this recorded was recommended here on AudiogoN several years ago, but I don’t remember who originally recommended it. Whoever it was, I thank you. It’s a wonderful recording.

Here goes: Chip Taylor and Carrie Rodriguez - "Live at the Ruhr Triennale". This is a fantastic recording by a couple of great artist, plus the band is really an All-Star Band. For anyone that doesn’t know Chip Taylor, he is the writer of both "Angel of the Morning" and "Wild Thing". He’s also the brother or Jon Voight. The aging Chip Taylor, and the very young Carrie Rodriguez (at the time of this recording) make great music together here. And the band is incredible - Bill Frisell, Greg Leisz, David Piltch, Kenny Wollesen and a special guest appearance by Buddy Miller.

This is playing on my system right now and I’m enjoying the crap out of it........

@ghosthouse ,

@reubent,

Sounds like a good one!

Triumph, Just a Game

reubent, I don't have Chip & Carrie's live album, but I have their Red Dog Tracks, and Carrie's Seven Angels on a Bicycle, Good music!

The sole album by The Notorious Cherry Bombs, a Super Group if there ever was one. NCB members include Rodney Crowell, Vince Gill, Richard Bennett (an absolutely fantastic guitarist), Hank DeVito, Tony Brown (yeah, the bigtime producer. But remember, he played piano for Elvis), and Eddie Bayers. Think of them as the Rockpile (Dave Edmunds/Nick Lowe/Billy Bremner/Terry Williams) of Country music (real Country, not the stuff on the radio now). THIS is the kind of songwriting, singing, and musicianship pro’s listen for from their peers. I’ll bet Robert Plant, a fairly recent convert to Country, is very much intimidated by these guys. From 2004, one of the very best albums of recent decades. Seriously!
