When I want a whole album and not just a playlist, it's always either Anodyne or Live In Seattle.
EDIT: and to prove it, here is an article that appeared this morning that amazingly uses my spotify post to FB from LAST NIGHT!!

American Central Dust has been in heavy rotation. It's down home Jay and it scratches me right where I itch. I think it'll be one of those albums I come back to for years to come.
But for me Anodyne is the one that feels like coming home. It was my intro to Jay and Slate was the song I'd been waiting to hear all my life.
Then Windfall, and Last Minute Shakdown, and Route, and Live Free.....

Poppa!
Every single one of Jay's songs at any point in time.
Just today, I sang "Station to Station" for Baby Doll and the twins. "It's not the end of the world; you can't even see it from here ..."
She rolled her eyes and finished cooking our breakfast.
Love

p.s. Heading out for a long walk with the dogs now. Settle Up. The Girls are on the way.

the staying power of Jay's records
What record of Jay's (whether UT, SV, solo, Gob Iron, etc.) do you find yourself coming back to more than any other? This doesn't necessarily mean which is your favorite record -- but which one do you listen to most often?
For me, it's 'Straightaways.' So beautifully understated. I perpetually find myself craving the soaring Boquist solos and the whining Heywood steel. Such a brilliant record, so underrated.
I love 'Trace,' but sometimes the songs feel almost too epic, too precious, if that makes any sense. And that's hardly criticism.
