Great country recording

Blue Rodeo - Five Days In July

Fantastic record if you like beautiful harmonies, tinkling toe tapping piano, and wonderful guitars

bdp ... its on a compilation called Sooner or Later. " Are You Through Yet " is great snapshot of a great band live...

The Dillards- any and all.

My first post.

For Western swing, I suggest ‘Jumpin Time’ by the Time Jumpers, some of Nashville’s best sidemen.  It’s a live recording, 2 CD set or a DVD of the performance.

And if you can find it, ‘Great American Cowboy’ by The Sons of the San Joaquin.
Think Sons of the Pioneers, beautifully recorded, all acoustic and cowboy harmonies to die for.  Beautifully recorded, can’t stress that enough.

I'm a big Buddy Miller fan, first encountered him when he was, supposedly, the opening act for Emmylou Harris at Benaroya Hall in Seattle. But the show was really the Buddy and Julie Miller show with Emmylou Harris. One of my all time favorite performances, despite less than ideal acoustics. 

If you don't have his "Cayamo Sessions At Sea" album with an amazing collection of collaborators, it's a must. The sonics of all his recordings are exceptional, as well.
