The message broad has turned me on to some great music. Sun kil moon is the last. His vioce is dark & kind of monotone, the guitars are lite & up liftin, great contrast.
Going to try some Red House P next.

Ghosts is very, very good. My go-to track is "Carry Me Ohio."

Gentle Moon and Last Tide are fantastic. One of my Desert Island Discs.

That is a great album, I like its sister song Pancho Vílla better however. Glenn Tipton and Lily and Parrots are classics.

Hmm.

If only there was some high tech device that would allow one could type in any question and get an answer to that question - INSTANTLY!

His Red House Painters stuff is good too. Especially Songs for a Blue Guitar.

Sun Kil Moon's GHOSTS OF THE GREAT HIGHWAY is the greatest album of the last 15 years imo. Just a truly inspired piece of work.

Check out "Trucker's Atlas" off his Modest Mouse Covers album.
Going off to Alaska...

Salvador Sanchez arrived and vanished
Only twenty-three with so much speed
Owning the highway

Mexico City bred so many
But none quite like him sweet warrior
Pure magic matador

Pancho Villa would never rest
'Til 1925 he closed his eyes
Two Manilla stars would rise

Ghosts of the Phillipines, choirs and angels sing
Ukelele strings play for his legend
Iloilo king

How have they gone
Felled by leather
All alone
Bound together

Benny "kid" Paret came a good way
Climbed to the grey sky to lift his hands
Stopped by the better man

Eyes of Las Villas cry for sons
Lost on distant shores, unforeseen horrors
Struck and delivered him

How have they gone
Felled by leather
All alone
Bound together

Why have they gone
Felled by leather
All alone
All bound together

I'm sincere. That's the one.

Love it baby, and I listen to Mark's song over and over,
Pony

grift, are you being sincere? if so,
