He was a superb musician.

I've always loved this song. John's harmony is sublime, too.

Such a brutal, tender, compassionate, honest examination of a marriage. Ingmar Bergman writes so clearly and beautifully. It's fascinating.

Very sad. What a brilliant show The Sopranos was.

This is a nice acoustic version of Old LA. Gotta love the big sound of Anders' Martin.

Agreed. I only picked up this CD a month or so ago and I've listened to it numerous times. It's only now just leaving heavy rotation. Old LA was the one that hit me hardest. Such a simple yet beautiful song.

Richmond Fontaine - Western Skyline

Bowie in 1972 - Hang Onto Yourself

Willie - Whiskey River

Nels' pedal board is about the size of my dining table.

Oh yes! Nice song.

...in London or some other seaport town...

A little more cashed up so I could get one of these:

Whoo-ee! I dig your taste, man! I've been listening to a lot of Townes lately. And the Son Volt album is just sublime. That record brought me to this one: ...and I'm loving it so far. The two disc edition has a bunch of extra tracks from Jay Farrar and Anders Parker.

Yes! The outro went on for longer if I recall.

Reading this again before tracking down the Jay Farrar/Ben Gibbard soundtrack to the Kerouac doco One Fast Move Or I'm Gone.
