Did you try searching the respective websites and/or discographies of Roger Daltrey, Carly Simon and Bob Dylan? How about a short, respectful e-mail to Mr. Botti himself, direct or thru his record company? Best of luck, let us know what you find, He's quite gifted. Tom
Most of the time, Pandora is spooky amazing at picking music you'll like, at other times it's way off the mark. Be sure to tell it that you 'like' or 'don't like' each song it plays so it gets (alledgedly) smarter. Tom

I never miss a chance to recommend Jonatha Brooke's New Dress off of her Steady Pull CD or DVD-A. http://www.jonathabrooke.com/music/steadypull.php Tom
She was on NPR (World Cafe) last week, sounded pretty good, just her on piano, and someone on guitar. Stream the show here. http://www.npr.org/templates/story/s...toryId=4842927 Tom
Guo, I ordered it from Amazon, which allowed me to stream the entire album, with Dar's commentary between songs. I've not received the CD yet, but just finished listening to the stream. I think this is a little more introspective than her last album. Cool covers of Neil Young and Pink Floyd...
The Duhks - Cool Folk/Americana. Doc Watson loves 'em! http://www.duhks.com/ Shannon McNally - Soulful singer. A mix of roots & pop, with a little R&B for good measure. Produced by Charlie Sexton http://www.shannonmcnally.com/ Brandi Carlile - Powerful, country flavored roots/rock. The...
I've long been an admirer of Mary Lee's Corvette. Mary Lee has a new album out in January, but there's an EP available on her website to make the waiting a little easier. Sound samples are available, please check them out. I don't think you'll be disappointed. Tom

I heard Jack and Meg on NPR yesterday. Jack did most of the talking, and it was very interesting to hear him comment on the new CD and also about producing Van Lear Rose. He appears to be sincere and intelligent. He seems to know his way around any musical instrument he picks up, and does some...
Rachael, The Thorns covered 'Blue', and nicely I might add. Maybe that's why it's familiar to ya, but the Jayhawks have been all over college radio, so it could be that too. Tom
Submitted for your approval (or not): David Elias - The Window Mark Knopfler - Shangri-La John Hiatt - Bring The Family and of course Jorma and anything by AK+US. Tom
I asked the record dept droid at Wal*Mart why they only had THREE HUNDRED Toby Keith CD's in the rack. He said they didn't want to run out. Then I did. Tom
Rachael, I had the oportunity to listen to disc 2 a bunch today, (I was working in the garage, getting ready for a river trip). I think you've got ol' Ryan figgered out. To me, disc 1 sounds like the Jayhawks, most of disc 2 sounds like Jerry Garcia. I still like Gold the best. Who was he...
