Re: Anodyne

well, you were right about the Johnson vocal cross of Lou Reed and Cohen. But I don't see the point of comparing because of time. Maybe then, but now? pfft Coomer: Jeff was becoming a better writer. I think some of it, and this is an outside opinion, yet an inside opinion, was like, Jeff was always ...

Re: Anodyne

For me, music can be like spending time
with an old friend that I haven’t seen in a while.
Refreshing. And I’m grateful for the time.

Re: 26Live & New Single!

What a lineup and set list! Fall 2019 in SoCal was gold.
Wonder where this was recorded and when vinyl might come?

New Jay sounds necessary...

Tweedy

I have spent about 15 years boasting of Jay Bennett and Jay Farrar’s immense talent.
Somewhere along the way I have fallen for Jeff Tweedy’s voice.
As the drummer once said, “ I could listen to him reading the phone book.”
It’s good to let go of the negative vibes

There is no compromise. Now all the names are called. Packed house full of believers. Like a six string belief. Guitar revival Amen! Rural route sleeps while LA bleeds all over itself

Mark Patterson is an amazingly solid drummer. A joy to rock with I bet. Chris Frame is a veteran of SV and man is he amazing. His tone from a slew of what seems to me like Fender Telecasters is every bit mix of Brad Rice, Boquist, Walbourne, David Gilmour and every perfect Mick Taylor lick you can t...

The owner and a volunteer guy Frank walked me around, told me about the plan -record store open 11-4, then prep for pizza and salads and beers 6-730, then Andrew opens 730...

Neal Casal

I’d expect love on this board for the man that colored Ryan Adams greatest work.
I loved Cold Roses, and this board pointed me in that direction at that time

So sweet a vocalist and guitarist-RIP
