Calexico Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 also, tim o reagans album rules. i dont think this has ever been discussed here. one of my favorites. Oh yes, Tim's album was so good and well worth checking out for those who don't have it. There are two guys from the Jawhawks fanpage who are travelling all round Oz to catch the boys in show.

solace Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 Tim's solo record is by far the best post-Jayhawks solo release by anyone in the band, no question. amazing record. word is he's hoping to have a new one out in the next year or so... *fingers crossed* Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wild Frank Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 my apologies if this has been done before, but i'm just getting into the jayhawks (i've had rainy day music for a while and always enjoyed it, but never got any of their other albums) and the related side/solo projects.... and was wondering if some longtime fans could help me put together a list of their favorite jayhawks tunes my top 3 so far..... save it for a rainy day, i'm gonna make you love me, all the right reasons what are your favorites?? My personal favourite album is 'Sound of Lies', the first album after Mark Olsen departed. Songs like 'Trouble', 'Up to You', 'Sound of Lies' 'Dying On The Vine' are beautiful. 'Hollywood Town Hall' is obviously chocked full of great songs and is the best place to start. Great band, but not enough 'grit' and 'experimentation' for my liking. I always following the Jayhawks and Wilco from the early days but the latter went down the 'YHF' route and Jayhawks went down the more 'twee' route with 'Rainy Day Music'.

Wild Frank Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Looking at that anthology I'd forgotton how many great tunes the Jayhawks put out. Looking forward to hearing disk two and the bonus disc. Whats everyone's favourite jayhawks record. I'm a massive fan of 'Sound of Lies' but it doesn't seem to get as much love at 'HTH' and 'TTGG'. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DrNo Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 I recently got a bunch of cds out of storage after moving and found Sound of Lies in one of the boxes. Probably my second favorite Jayhawks record after Hollywood Town Hall. It's been fun getting reacquainted with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

A very, very solid disc. Hollywood Town Hall will always be my favorite....it's SO great. But on certain days I'd put Sound of Lies at least even with Tomorrow the Green Grass.

Sounds like a blissful moment to me! There is something about that album that can make me feel as young as I was in '95! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Smokestack Joe Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 HTH and TTGG yes bring me back to mid 90s, good ole days of my youth. high school years. before the bullsh*t started. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You are right, it doesn't get mentioned as much as the two you mentioned but I think it may possibly be the best Jayhawks album. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
