The National...losless downloads?

yeah, I'm from Cincinnati. I remember them putting out Alligator and thinking, "these guys might break it big," and then not much later they're on Letterman and have a song in a Democratic campaign ad.

I think Alligator is their most focused effort, but I really cant say I like any album more than the other.

Cherry Tree is a unique album because its a pretty intimate showing, and a really interesting document in terms of seeing were theyve come from. It's not my favorite, but it does have my favorite song, "Wasp's Nest", on it.

cool...i am just up the road in columbus. i used to get to cinci 3 or 4 days a week so i know it well. lots of good music from that area...the wiggs, adrian belew...some classic talent.

have not had time to get into any of the other records. i have been screwing with my network/server stuff and it is killing me! audio used to be so easy. i love the current evolution in digital but it really needs some standards. half the time i feel like i am guessing but it sounds pretty damn good at the moment.

meant afghan whigs not wiggs...eating and typing!

The Afghan Whigs are incredible. On a side note, Shake It! Records in Cincy is doing a 7" tribute series to Eddie Hinton, and Gregg Duli (afghan whigs singer) did vol 2. You need these two songs. Haha.

The record is called Dagerous Highway vol2.

i will put it on my list for sure. i think i have every record he has ever been on. thanks for the tip!
