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.

Jond,
I was driving them w/ Cary 805C. I never thought I lacked any bass until I decided to add a sub one day and see what it did.
I know you dont need more bass but a sub added more than just bass. Instruments were fuller and rounder. Soundstage was bigger, and most important there was a sense of ease without any strain.
Just my 2 cents...

I am a fan of CJ, and have pretty much everything they've put out, but what's up with the Title Song (track 10)on the new CD. Hip/Hop Rap on a CJ release???????.

Jond, Thanks for reminding me about them. I bought TTS many tears ago, one of my favorite CD's, but haven't listened to it in a while. After reading your post I bought ETCB yesterday and izza winner. My favorite cut on first listen is #4.
