Jinder Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Anthony, I agree about Ryan's acoustic stuff. Suicide Handbook is stellar. 48hrs is wonderful too in terms of unreleased stuff. I gather that Ry finds playing acoustic guitar for a long time painful since his stage tumble and shattered wrist in '04. I saw him doing a solo tour in '06 during which he was pounding on a couple of bottles of red wine per show and nipping off for Cortizone injections in the wings during sets. He seemed really uncomfortable with the guitar. I saw him later in the year with The Cardinals, and he was clean, sober and playing electric as if he was channeling energy out of the sky and conjuring a thunderstorm...I'd never seen anything as startling or powerful, in terms of raw electric guitar dynamic and interplay. I think electric is a much more comfortable medium for him to use at the moment, although Cardinology has some great acoustic work on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jefleppard Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I am a big RA fan' date=' but hae been dragging my feet picking this one up. I guess I should give it a try? I have been obsessed recently with his ::unreleased:: Suicide Handbook record. Outstanding (and very much acoustic guitar based; ryan is at his best when unplugged, IMHO).[/quote'] he's my current fave. his lyrics are cutting and truthful. the ladyfriend i took with me to see him in cleveland has become obsessed with him, plastering her cell phone and pc with pics of him. its actually a little frightening. careful, jinder! you might be next - i played her your gibson lounge video.

It is amazing how three chords can be used to create soooooo many different songs.[/quote'] their tunes make for great counrty-fried conversions. i used to do an alt-country version of 'you shook me'. it IS a country song IMO. back to the post topic.... my first cooder cassette was the "paris, texas' soundtrack. really great stuff. legend has it he recorded most of it on a guitar he bought from a pawn shop right before the session. great movie, too. strange but cool - it stays with you.

jefleppard Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 and furthermore...(clears throat)... this may be old news for some but at any rate, last.fm is a great free streaming radio network that has all sorts of specialty stations as well as fan and dedicated ones as well. i just tapped in looking for some ryan adams stuff after jinder mentioned suicide handbook. lots of great stuff here - townes, guy clark, lucinda, kathleen edwards, etc...

Funny you mentioned 48 hours. I just downloaded that one yesterday. Very Whiskeytown-esque (read: county). Like it alot after a few spins. RA may be a bit unpredictable (and could use an editor to filter out some filler material), but since Y2K, he might be the best artist at the top of his game. For those who haven't discovered him (mainstream radio doesnt play him, no?) he is worth seeking out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Don't own any CDs. Got everything on my iPods and computers. I have about 7,000 songs on my iPod. If you are asking what am I listening to right now, here ya go. Currently I am absolutely loving the following bands Black Stone Cherry The Answer The Hurt Farewell to Freeway I just got GnR's Chinese Democracy and have to say it is a great CD, guitars, vocals, melodies are all very strong. I like one song on the new AC/DC Black Rain, the rest of it is so so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jchabalk Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 I knew i was forgetting something - wow could i forget this one? Justin Townes Earle - The Good Life. We had the opportunity to see him at the hardly strictly bluegrass festival this year in San Francisco. After the show i was waiting to get my CD signed and his dad tapped me on the shoulder to get me out of the way to he could tell him what a great set he played. I had to agree..
