Middle aged alt-country (whatever that is)lover. A closet full of L.P.s, a wall full of CDs and now a hard drive full of MP3s. I love all music, at least the stuff I love. Open to anything good.

"Probably blasphemy to hard core fans, but I think this is the DTT's best album. Jason Isbell contributes some freat tracks. Danko/Manuel is classic. Give this one a try. You won't be disappointed." less

"You just can't go wrong with this guy..." more

"You just can't go wrong with this guy. And this is my favorite. Timeless country music. This souinds like it was recorded in the '50s, not 2003." less

"Grat songwriter and vocalist. Again, ..." more

"Grat songwriter and vocalist. Again, any of her stuff is worth downloading." less

"Power pop from a one man band. I can'..." more

"Power pop from a one man band. I can't believe this guy isn't really famous. Seriously, you need to hear this." less

"Real country music."

"The former front man for '80's hit ma..." more

"The former front man for '80's hit machine "Men at Work". This is one of five albums currently available on emusic. All of them are worth downloading. But this one is my favorite. He has a wonderful voice that can be compared to a good 12 year old scotch. His songwriting skills are a match for anyone. A reflective, beautiful trip through a man's ups and downs through life. Highly recommended." less

"Another modern blues artist. Taylor takes it to a whole new level." less

"Classic electric blues."

"Another terrific guitarist. While he ..." more

"Another terrific guitarist. While he can tear it up on the electric, these are all acoustic, traditional blues numbers. But the best of the bunch are the ones he wrote himself. This guy has it all." less

"A great guitarist and vocalist. Not y..." more

"A great guitarist and vocalist. Not your father's blues. But just as good." less

"Claw-hammered style banjo player. Bea..." more

"Claw-hammered style banjo player. Beautiful vocals, too. As an added bonus, Abigail is fluent in Mandarin and sings one of the songs in Chinese. I resisted this one for a long time, but now can't recall why." less

"So much good stuff here. "Keep Search..." more

"So much good stuff here. "Keep Searchin'" and "I Go to Pieces" are the highlights. But this is the best of a giant of the early '60s." less

"See the movie "Once", then try to resist downloading this." less

"A Steve Earle accolyte with truly gre..." more
