just listening to the latest crooked fingers album - thanks for the tip

I haven't, but I really need to. I just listened to some samples and it sounds great. I am listening to The Hated and Three Shades of Dirty for the first time and am amused at just how different Daniel sounds.

Thank you for your post man, I am a fan of Tara's solo work but I have not listened to Cynthia before. There was a period when I was trying to explore more genres and the ladies came up in my search I will read your review and get back to you!

Ditto the commenter below. Click and Slap is great. Thanks for the recommendation.

hey, good call on the K. album! I love Ida and I'm enjoying this too!

Really liking the new Damon and Naomi record, but my favorite is still Wondorous World (or maybe More Sad Hits, hard to say). Their past two records never really did much for me. Everything was starting to sound more or less the same. I think the songwriting is at the strongest it has ever been. I'd like to see them in concert with a full band.

Thanks for letting me know. I'm looking forward to May 2010. I love Damon & Naomi's music. I got to see them years and years ago when they first started playing out as a duo. The show started at 10:00, and I got there about 8:00, thinking the line would be out the door, because hey, they were part of Galaxie 500 and everything. Sadly, I was the first to arrive and not many people were there. But it was amazing, standing about three feet away from them when they played their set.

hey ! Thanks for sharing about the New album ! looking forward to it now ! Cheers ! :)

have you heard the new nina nastasia record?

hiya! cool to meet ya. ;) well, beyond which is my favorite, i hadn't really thought to rank them--but let's go for it! okay, my order would be: "featuring" birds (no question) > american gong > sword of god > when the going gets dark > hot shit > field studies > r&b transmogrification. ooooh, must acquire the early recordings! sweet!!!

hi there! i am actually a new-ish quasi fan, but i've been meaning to listen to them for a long time. i really love the new album, tracks 3 & 4 are my favorites!

thanks!

Saw Laura Veirs in Amsterdam last night, she was awesome!!! Am loving her new album too.

-Hey thanks, I appreciate that! I figured my comment might make me a little unpopular, lol.....it just makes me sad to think of how much Laura has to spend personally, only to have people steal the music. I know, I'm an artist myself.

Mates of State in Montreal!!!!! Yeah - both favorites of mine
