Oh Yeah! Let's hear it for Jonatha!
New Dress, off of Steady Pull has got to be one of the most sensuous songs ever.

Ian Moore - found Modernday Folklore today for .89 cents. What a great CD!! Just love that southern Texas rock.

MatS: Funny you mention Drive By Truckers. I've got them on my wishlist. Just ordered Decoration Day today from BMG music. They also have Southern Rock Opera which I may pick up later.

Chet -

I'm just going to list one artist, so pay close attention.

Richard Thompson.

Since I've "discovered" him, I cannot get enough. Head on over to Amazon.com and pull up Action Packed: Best of the Capitol Years and listen to some samples. I'd be interested to hear what you think.

Jon_Are - That's funny! I just picked up Beat The Retreat - Songs by Richard Thompson. A great list of performers covering his songs. So far it's pretty good.

I did check out some of his songs but the quality & length of the samples are rather bad. Hard to get a REAL feel for his music from those samples. I think I'll pick up Action Packed though from BMG.

Charles Gurganus: I have 2 CDs of Peter H, one being Synesthesia. No that good though when I listened to it. Picked it up for .92 cents so no big deal. I also have Love Thinketh No Evil which I like. I'll try out Strength to Strength next.
