New Cowboy Junkies- Wow

I just picked up the new Cowboy Junkies disc, "Early 21st Century Blues" and it's fantastic! It's the first Junkies album I've picked up since "The Trinity Sessions" but the track list on this looked cool, lots of interesting covers, so I said what the heck. Boy am I glad I did! There's a Dylan tune, two Springsteen tunes, one George Harrison, and my favorite Richie Havens "Handouts In The Rain". They even do a U2 tune, "One"! It's available pretty much everywhere, check it out.

Thanks Jond. I will go buy it this weekend. I had your speakers before. If you add a sub to them, you would thank me later. I would try a Rel first.

My personal fav is "The Caution Horses" I did just recently rediscover "trinity Sessions" in my collection. Glad this was brought up for I might not have known and gone without. Paul

Thanks for the lead Jond.

My personal favorite is "Whites Off Earth Now". If you like "The Trinity Sessions" I know you'll like it too. Similar recording technique in a church.

Anybody know if it's going to be on vinyl? It's 6am, I think I'll go listen to them now with my coffee.

Nickt,
So how'd you like my speakers and what did you drive them with? I'm currently using an 18 watt per side KR Audio tube amp and I'm amazed at how easy they are to drive and how great they sound. In my small room a sub isn't really needed. I get usable output down to 40hz, that's good enough for me and I'm sure my neighbors thank me as well. Everyone enjoy the disc, also a similar recommendation, everyone should pick up the debut album of The Great Unknowns if you like Americana music and I'm guessing you all do. It's on Daemon records and it's an amazing record, good sound, great tunes. Enjoy!
Cheers,
