  I am a fan of Emmy Lou Harris and am amazed that she has so little support in Last FM. She definitely is one of the greats of American country/bluegrass music. Are there any followers of her music in this group.

  I connected Robert Plant & Alison Krauss--I wasn't impressed with the collaboration, but alot of folks like it. Last year I noted Robert Plant & the Band of Joy concerts, but last fm doesn't distinguish between his Led-Zep days and his acoustic modern Band of Joy. I'm thinking that would just goof up our Similar Artists a bit too much.

  @ jcshepard : Could you connect Robert Plant & Alison Krauss and Robert Plant to the group please? I have always considered his collaboration with Alison Krauss and with Band of Joy as Americana. http://www.last.fm/music/Robert+Plant http://www.last.fm/music/Robert%2BPlant%2B%2526%2BAlison%2BKrauss

  I L-U-V Son Volt! One of the greatest bands on earth. I really can't stop listening to them, and I can't stop sing along to them either. I LUUUUV Jay Farrar - even more than I love Jeff Tweedy and Wilco.
