Gilliangirl Posted April 2, 2011 Share Posted April 2, 2011 A friend bought me two CDs for my b'day and one of them is still in the CD player because I just can't stop listening to it. Justin Townes Earle Harlem River Blues...... what a GREAT CD! There isn't a bad song on it. In fact, there isn't a mediocre song on it. It's one of those types of CDs that puts you in a good mood, no matter how you started out your day. The other CD is Lucinda Williams, Blessed. Not completely sold on that one yet as it's a bit depressing, but I have to give it a better chance, just as soon as I can drag JTE out of the CD player!

Gilliangirl Posted April 3, 2011 Author Share Posted April 3, 2011 Note that the CD is a lot more *produced* than those YouTube clips. Both are excellent tho', IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
