The lovely K. Kennedy bought my then girlfriend and me tickets to a concert in Madison, WI. I think it might be the single best live music experience I've ever had (although Beck in a small club in Hamburg, Germany, and Leo Kottke and Lyle Lovette and His Large Band at the Leid Center in Lincoln, NE, are right up there).<BR/><BR/>And Dylan, as for your advice to your readers about using iTunes . . . I would turn right around and scold you for ever using a proprietary format. You're sending this thing out into the world. You have lots of devoted readers. The least you could do is attempt to be a little more universal. That being said, I have yet to see an organizational tool for digital music files as well-built or as easy to use as iTunes--although <A HREF="http://songbirdnest.com" REL="nofollow">Songbird</A> is looking very promising.<BR/><BR/>Continued thanks for your hard work, sir.shhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12176978203253514796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9925901.post-1162868756356760322006-11-06T21:05:00.000-06:002006-11-06T21:05:00.000-06:00I'm with you, Dylan....although i'll go a step fur...I'm with you, Dylan....although i'll go a step further and declare these guys my favorite US band, which pretty much started the moment Georgia starting singing leads on their records, and James McNew became a permanent member. I love the fact that they can go in any musical direction with ease [and skill], and you nailed it....their covers are fantastic [Needle Of Death [Jansch] and For Shame Of Doing Wrong [Thompson]] are two of my faves, among dozens. Couple that with live stuff i've heard with members of the Sun Ra Arkestra playing with them, and there doesn't seem to be a ceiling on this band. Oddly enough, not crazy about their live shows....though i've never seen two that were remotely alike.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9925901.post-1162733100109370152006-11-05T07:25:00.000-06:002006-11-05T07:25:00.000-06:00Those links aren't broken; they're links to .m4a f...Those links aren't broken; they're links to .m4a files. If you aren't using iTunes, you probably can't download them because .m4a is a proprietary file extension. If I get around to it in the next few days, I'll try to repost them as .mp3 links. If not, you should be using iTunes.Dylan Gaughanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00450496248701505386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9925901.post-1162731025173089002006-11-05T06:50:00.000-06:002006-11-05T06:50:00.000-06:00I think there are a couple of broken links on the ...I think there are a couple of broken links on the downloads--"You Tore Me Down" and "By the Time It Gets Dark."<BR/><BR/>Thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9925901.post-1162272307081112552006-10-30T23:25:00.000-06:002006-10-30T23:25:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
