Ray LaMontagne - Got the Stuff

Last night I went to see Ray LaMontagne in Seattle. What a great artist! That guy has soul - right from the center of his core. Somewhere between Joe Cocker and Aretha Franklin on the soule scale, with his own appreciation of life's ups and downs thrown in. Great voice, and he can really convey emotion. He is currently on tour, and I would encourage all to check out his music and consider catching a concert while he's currently out and about. Here is his website.

Thanks fellas for the tip. I just bought both & they are fantastic. BTW, I just saw Gregg Allman on tour a few weeks ago (really great on this fall tour) here in Fla & someone asked him who he currently liked to listen to & the only artist he mentioned was Ray.

This thread was right on time. I have the opportunity to go to see him in a 1,600 seat cathedral tonight (in Detroit) with my brother and a friend. I will report back after the show. I am really looking forward to it.
