Yes, consider me a fan of his lyrics as well. Looking forward to this in a big way. He played a couple of new ones when I saw him live last.

I'll have to check this one out. Otherwise, nothing.

ditto that... I never tire of that. I love the Clash but Streetcore is my favorite thing Joe was involved with. Still sucks we won't hear anything new from him. RIP

Looking forward to this one. He released 'Walking Far From Home' as a single w/3 other songs and they sound good. Seems a bit of a departure from Shepard's Dog but that shouldn't suprise anyone.

I can get behind these. Have you heard Joey Kneiser's solo album? It should have been on my list for sure.

Twenty Four Bit - video Tweedy/Yo La Tengo

I could go for a repeat of Jacksonville City Nights.

Luther Dickinson for Best Traditional Folk album is pretty cool. Recorded a few days after his Dad passed. Also rooting for the Black Keys.

It's possible that I might even like Mavis less as a result of Tweedy's involvement. It's a great album though. my best of in no particular order: Black Keys - Brothers the Whigs - In the Dark Henry Clay People - Somewhere on the Golden Coast Alejandro Escovedo - Street Songs of Love Band of Horses - Infinite Arms Deer Tick - Black Dirt Sessions Greenhornes - ***** Sharon Jones & the Dap Kings - I Learned the Hard Way (maybe Tweedy can produce the next one?) Bobby Bare Jr - A Storm... Hold Steady - Heaven is Whenever National - High Violet (might be my favorite from them) Trampled by

I'd appreciate a bit of help with this.

Wow...very sad news. His version of Fast Train is one of my favorite songs of all time. RIP

Wait, did I miss this?

Yeah, I saw the Harvard thing. I'm a fan and had no idea. He was a bright guy for sure. Made me sad but it didn't shock me. His cd about 'crossing a river' is absolutely hilarious if you haven't heard it. RIP

Yeah, saw him open for DBT many years ago and loved him. Highly recommend his other albums.

I know that I'll get killed for this but I don't think he has reached the level of his Faces/Gasoline Alley days. Flame away folks but his newer stuff just isn't as good.

I'd like to hear this... I've only heard one song thus far. Love this guy. NP:

This is awesome.

Justin Townes Earle new Daytrotter session. Includes 1 new song and 1 unreleased along with a couple of others. Great stuff.

t-minus x to a full leak I'm sure. I would love to see her on this tour.

I really like Big Echo. You can hear influences without it sounding rehashed. Plus I'm a sucker for harmonies.

What new songs are you referring to? His recent albums are generally recognized as very solid albums. I can understand that you don't like them but "sad how bad" the new songs are? Jerusalem is the only album I don't like much.

yes, ditto on this. It was great to see but I strongly prefer his non-bluegrass stuff. I agree with the recommendations above but would also add his latest Townes Van Zandt tribute. Amazing stuff.

Not a horrible way to spend an evening.
