I certainly know the Buddy Guy and Zimmerman, but I don't know much Uncle Tupelo - I believe they morphed into Wilco, which is a band I do like. And I agree completely about Hag.Mr. Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13920907647566015611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-38649340313471651142008-11-07T13:59:00.000-06:002008-11-07T13:59:00.000-06:00Mark,It's hard to beat Sir Duke. I am giving this ...Mark,<BR/>It's hard to beat Sir Duke. <BR/><BR/>I am giving this a whirl on the IPOD right now. Here's my next five:<BR/><BR/>1) Pretty Boy Floyd by Woody Guthrie.<BR/>I can't find Woody's version, but here's Bob Zimmerman's<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBlwt9li-os<BR/><BR/>2) Chickimauga by Uncle Tupelo<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUEAg1AIDv0<BR/><BR/>3) Feels Like Rain by Buddy Guy<BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dnq0AvAJFuU<BR/><BR/>Set to a montage of the city I love: Chicago. (Seems to be a hot topic these days).<BR/><BR/>4) Tangled Up In Blue by the aforementioned Mr. Zimmerman from <BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvBkbPEoeAI<BR/><BR/>This is a live version, but the original is on the 1974 album Blood on the Tracks, which is on my short list of albums I would want with me if stranded on a deserted island.<BR/><BR/>5) I'm a Lonesome Fugitive by Merle Haggard<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_fUvEUmyNI<BR/><BR/>It's just my opinion, but I listen to guys like Merle Haggard and cringe at what has become of mainstream Country Music these days. A real classic.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for getting our mind off politics for a while. Withdrawl is gonna be a biatch.<BR/><BR/>Regards, <BR/>RichAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-77669458963688991492008-11-07T02:26:00.000-06:002008-11-07T02:26:00.000-06:00Random songs that make me happy:Groove is in the H...Random songs that make me happy:<BR/>Groove is in the Heart - Deee - lite<BR/>Genius of Love - the Tom Tom Club<BR/>You Sexy Thing - Hot Chocolate,<BR/>You Dropped a Bomb on Me - the Gap Band<BR/><BR/>Odd that I love dance music, since I'm probably the worst dancer this side of Elaine BenisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19838051.post-69554407367173322282008-11-07T00:14:00.000-06:002008-11-07T00:14:00.000-06:00It's tough to be angry or depressed when listening...It's tough to be angry or depressed when listening to Herb Alpert.
