I first saw him on Jools Hollands New Years Eve show (06/07) and was transfixed (mind, I was a little tired & emotional :D at the time).

Then bought the album & realised my initial impression was spot on. :thumbup:

Check him out on youtube. :)

Just have!

Nils Lofgren "Acoustic Live". Never mind his shennanigans with Springsteen, this is awesome stuff. Seen him numerous times and never ceases to make me want to destroy my guitar! :cry: :wink:

**NewsPhotog** · 25th January 2008, 18:15

Bright Eyes, "Cassadaga."
Great, great, stuff.

Particularly the tracks "Four Winds," "If The Brakeman Turns My Way," "Classic Cars."

**SimonK** · 25th January 2008, 21:46

Richard Thompson. He's been making great music for the thick end of forty years. Seen him in concert a few times - both as a solo artist and with his band - and it is always a tiptop show. I have to say he is probably the world's wittiest muslim.

Here's a taste (just listen to the words if you are not familiar with song - marvel at his finger-picking too!)

I had this on the other night - awesome acoustic guitar playing :shock: I like the track, "Kieth Don't Go". On my set up he sounds like he's in the room.

Great stuff

Didn't they make a track with Duane Eddy? I don't know why but this made me think of "The Power Station" and I'm going to listen to their first CD right now!

Great choice Eddie, I think I'll give that a spin myself later. :)

**mr1973** · 7th February 2008, 10:37

In 1986, Eddy recorded with Art of Noise, a collaboration that brought a contemporary edge to his 1960 best seller, "Peter Gunn". The song was a Top Ten hit around the world, ranking #1 on Rolling Stone Magazine's dance chart for six weeks that summer. "Peter Gunn" won The Grammy for Best Rock Instrumental of 1986. It also gave Eddy the distinction of being the only instrumentalist to have had Top 10 hit singles in four different decades in Great Britain.

Another 5 minutes on Youtube instead of working. :wink: Only it's never just 5 minutes is it? You always have to look at something else.

In case you think Duane Eddy only ever played easy stuff, look at this.

great gig....... wonderful evening
to each their own taste but Ian Anderson is a talented man and his way to interact (even though he has been telling some jokes for many years) makes for a great evening

so lots the old vinyl has been on the recordplayer

@ Eddie.... Paul Carrack is another multi talented guy as a solo artist or with Mike & the Mechanics, his vocal capabilities always stand out...

@Simon ..... payed all the CD's out a citizen box two weeks ago.... never get bored with these guys....

Jeroen

Jethro Tull................

Crest of a Knave album is great.
