Jay Farrar

JW-- Anyway you go is fun, and fine, but you absolutely cannot go wrong with Lawrence Fan's advice. The anthology makes for a nice primer, and as soon as that UT appetite flairs up for real, dive straight into No Depression. And yeah, it's a beautiful thing to be discovering it all for the first tim...

I can not believe this thread went eight pages and nobody mentioned Stephen Stills. That's underrated for ya. The man is a guitar god walking amongst us and no one notices.

The Chicks are mainstream country, but I think they are a step in the right direction. They at least co-write their songs and play their own instruments.

Soundgarden's A Sides... good for shakin' the bats out of the belfry when Aerosmith's first record won't do it anymore. I love me some Soundgarden.

The resident Libs have made clear their reasons for not digging W, and often the retort is that he's better than Kerry, Gore, et al. I agree that they were flawed candidates, but to my mind their flaws had more to do with not being good at the theatre of politics - something on whichthe GOP is ligh...
