I have about 25 minutes before I leave for work, so I'm going to listen to a little Joss Stone until then... Enjoy the rest of your night everyone...

Have a good evening, Rick...

evening folks. Beautiful winter day here in southern california...spent the day walking the canals in Venice. Saw the most amazing house. The ground floor walls were huge sliding doors. The owners were sitting in the room on the couch and it was like they were outside. so cool. Watched some Woodstock on Palladia channel, played some guitar; now i'll listen to some tunes, do a little writing, play some more guitar....anything to get my mind off the fact that tomorrow is a work day. Steve

Easy -- CD

Kelly Willis

2002 Rykodisc Records

Amazon.com



The complexities of love provide plenty of opportunity for rueful reflection on the deceptively titled Easy.
Though Kelly Willis has shown that she can belt a country song with the
best of them, she opts for a more intimate approach on this collection
of midtempo ballads. The arrangements are primarily acoustic and
harmony-laden (with Alison Krauss and Vince Gill among those providing
vocal support), as Willis draws from the songbooks of husband Bruce
Robison ("What Did You Think"), Paul Kelly ("You Can't Take It with
You"), Kirsty MacColl ("Don't Come the Cowboy with Me Sunny Jim!"), and
Marcia Ball ("Find Another Fool"). The singer's own writing extends the
artistic progression of her previous album, What I Deserve,
with the bittersweet "If I Left You" and the melodic reverie of "Wait
Until Dark" (written with John Levanthal) showing how much she has
matured as an artist since her days as an alt-country ingénue. Willis
saves the best for last with the shimmering transcendence of "Reason to
Believe," a celebration of the everyday wonder a baby brings to her
mother, providing redemption after all the heartbreak previously evoked.

Gosh, I just love Kelly Willis!! I have all her CDs, and have been hoping for a new one for awhile now. She only seems to release new music every 6 or 7 years...

Thanks Rick! I'm probably going to listen to some music! [;)]

...and I've got a list as long as my arm, of things that need to be done around here. [:|]

So, it is more of a stay-cation. It's just nice not to have to go to work! yes.gif

Songs Of The West -- CD

Emmylou Harris

1992 Warner Western Records

Finally, several lost Emmylou Songs out on CD!!! Don't miss, October 30, 1999


By A Customer



This review is from: Songs of the West (Audio CD)



Forget about what you read above: Sure this is a retread but what this
review doesn't tell you is that three of the most lovely songs on this
CD have never before been available on Domestic CD. They were released
on the LP CIMARRON which is apparently only availble on Australian CD
and I have never seen it for sale. Since that Album has been out of
print for years, I gladly paid the price for this CD just to have those
songs. Also, if you have not had a decent sampling of Emmlyou's
Western style and only been listening to her more pop oriented music,
this will be an eye-opening experience for you. I popped this into the
Car Stereo last Christmas while driving my parents about town and they
loved it, having only heard her radio hits before. Accept this CD for
what it is: an introduction to a side of Emmylou not heard on the
Radio and a welcome chance to own a few precious songs not included on
the PORTRAITS Boxed Set or on any other CD.

  1. "I'll Be Your San Antone Rose" (Susanna Clark) - 3:43
  2. "Even Cowgirls Get the Blues" (Rodney Crowell) - 3:56
  3. "Amarillo" (Emmylou Harris/Rodney Crowell) - 3:05
  4. "The Sweetheart of the Rodeo" (Emmylou Harris/Paul Kennerley) - 3:42
  5. "Queen of the Silver Dollar" (Shel Silverstein) - 5:14
  6. "One Paper Kid" [with Willie Nelson] (Walter Martin Cowart) - 2:58
  7. "Rose of Cimarron" (Rusty Young) - 4:18
  8. "Spanish Is a Loving Tongue" (Traditional/arr. Brian Ahern) - 3:20
  9. "Cattle Call" (Tex Owens) - 2:52
  10. "Montana Cowgirl" (Ray Park) - 2:45

Prairie Wind -- CD

Neil Young

2005 Reprise Records

Amazon.com



An artist for all musical seasons, Neil Young returns to autumnal harvest mode on Prairie Wind,
with homespun material and sing-song melodies that renew the spirit of
some of his most popular releases. Yet the mood here is darker in its
maturity than on Harvest and Harvest Moon--the
previous releases in what now sounds like a trilogy--and the
arrangements have greater range and aural depth, with Wayne Jackson of
the soulful Memphis Horns, the Fisk University Jubilee Singers gospel
choir, and a string section employed to striking effect. This is a song
cycle of dreams, memories, family ties, and the passage of time--what is
lost and what endures. The elliptical, epic "No Wonder," with its
evocation of 9/11, ranks with the most ambitious songs of Young's
career, while "Falling Off the Face of the Earth," "It's a Dream," and
the bluesy title cut combine childlike innocence with unsettling
experience. Spooner Oldham's church keyboards and coproducer Ben Keith's
steel guitar reinforce the sound's sturdy simplicity. Young has
released a lot of albums in different musical styles, but Prairie Wind feels like a homecoming, and ranks with his very best. --Don McLeese

All songs written by Neil Young, and ©2005 Silver Fiddle Music (ASCAP)

  1. "The Painter" – 4:36
  2. "No Wonder" – 5:45
  3. "Falling Off the Face of the Earth" – 3:35

Hi Rick--hanging in there. Got sidetracked from the music listening by You Tube. Watched a pretty good short documentary called 20 Minutes that Changed Music. It's about Queen's performance at LiveAid. I've always liked that band, so it's cool to hear other music industry people talking about how impactful that performance was. I was supposed to do some writing tonight; but, it's getting late. I'll play the guitar for a half hour or so, then head off to bed. Hope your work night goes smootly.
