Music! What are you listening to now?

[Susan Westemeyer]

My dad's family comes from NC, (Beaufort Co.) and my mom still lives there (Edenton), so I have strong Tar Heel connections.

I went to Va. Tech and that's where I got turned on to country and bluegrass music. Saw Emmylou Harris at a small club in DC many years ago. And I will never forget seeing Linda Ronstadt at the Cellar Door in Georgetown with an acoustic band in the early-mid 70s.

I love Emmylou!

I am jealous. I love the Outer Banks.

I'll think of you in three weeks, then. We're taking Mom there to celebrate her birthday.

I've been to the Outer Banks nearly every year of my life. My husband and son have come to love it, too.

David Allen Coe! I haven't thought of him in ages, but I instantly remember his absolutely classic song, "You Never Even Call Me By My Name," with the most incredible lyrics, for "the perfect country song":

Well, I was drunk the day my Mom got outta prison.
And I went to pick her up in the rain.
But, before I could get to the station in my pickup truck
She got runned over by a damned old train.

My gawd, if that doesn't wind up the way back machine! When I lived in Miami, my brother in law and myself bought a real pit of a bar. There was a previous clientele who thought they could continue their prior practice of drinking without paying.This song was playing on the jukebox when one of these louts took it upon himself to do a burnout on his motorcycle, starting at the pool tables and out the back door.

I know I've heard that song a hundred times. I couldn't take it off the juke box, it was just so daggone popular.

Legion Of Mary, "Tore Up Over You" live .

 

[craig1985]

Going to download the song dedicated to Rabobank's Koos Moerenhout - There It Goes (for Koos) by The Gasoline Brothers (you can download for free off their website).

They wrote it after he won the Dutch National Road Race (I think Moerenhout plugged them in a twitter post and they got back to him by offering to write a song for him if he won the Dutch NRC). Michael Boogerd had a song, and I think Laurens ten Dam has one, albiet sung by drunk Dutch fans on Alpe d'Huez as he rode past them.

We just bought the remastered version of Abbey Road -- frankly, it sounds the same to me.

Susan

Edit: I don't really mean that negatively, as far as I'm concerned it's the greatest album ever made.

Side two is the greatest b-side ever made.. im still not convinced about side 1 (as someone who has every beatles, wings, mccarteny and lennon album)..

Lou Reeds "new york", Nick Caves "murder ballads", Velvets/Nico, Levellers "levelling the land", Dylan "highway 61", "self portrait" and Blonde on Blonde" and "Revolver" are always going to stop abbey road being the greatest for me..

Is Cuban Links 2 any good? If it's half as good as the first It will be the second cd I buy this year.

Everthing All the Time was great, but Cease to Begin was a little disappointing.

I'd say it's better . . . if that's possible.
