I don't know. That punk music the kids like can be so abrasive.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

But look at the catchy titles!
I love Lucinda Williams' two pre-Gravel albums, the eponymous one and Sweet Old World.
Super spiff, I aver.

I love Lucinda Williams' Lucinda Williams and Sweet Old World. I don't like the later ones as much. And I certainly should have mentioned Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, although again I like the first two albums, Revival and Hell Among the Yearlings, best.

"Essence" is in permanent rotation in my most-used iTunes playlist. I adore that song.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I want to sit out back with Lucinda and drink beers while the sun sets. Car Wheels is one of my most favourites ever. Lake Charles can get set on repeat and I am a happy camper. Also, I never tire of seeing her in concert.
Others to add to that list: Nanci Griffith, Lyle Lovett, Emmylou Harris, Dwight Yoakam, Old 97s, Elvis Costello, David Bowie

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Oh, that poor misguided boy.
Oh, he likes the Clash, and the Ramones, and Stooges, and VU. He just acknowledges that the Sex Pistols couldn't fucking play.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
I'm not big on Lucinda Williams either, from what I've heard. I loathe the song that was played on our "adult alternative" station from her most recent CD. Loathed it.
I hated her last album, actually. But Car Wheels is still brilliant.

Are you guys seeing the reviews for the new Loretta Lynn album? I might have to get it today if I manage to get out of the house.
Yesterday I heard four tracks from the soon-to-be-released (6/15) Beastie Boys album. How do they do it? They amaze me with their consistent ability to live up to the insane expectations set by their previous albums with each new release (not that every album of theirs is fantastic even by fan-standards, but they have never fully bombed either). Fans expect full, funny, brilliant, dance-able, drive-able, party-able, singalong-able album experiences from each release. That's a lot of pressure. What I heard sounds just as good as their best stuff.
