This is really great. Somewhere between the Michael Nesmith stuff and Townes Van Zandt with a touch of New Skin For The Old Ceremony heartbreak (at least on track 1).  Plus the dl I procured is a warm lp rip with lots of little pops and crackles.

Just arrived in the mail from South Korea today.  Sounds wonderful.  Thank you, Hugman.  Thank you, FOT in general.

Really great stuff.  Just the dude and his guitar.  The songs are great and the stage banter is kind of fun.

Excellent record. One of the greatest live albums ever made. Maybe one of the greatest albums ever, period.

Yeah, it's really something special.  It's just him in a room cranking out great song after great song.  It's a perfect example of "less is more".

For a guy that writes such sad songs, he's surprisingly funny.
I'll probably go into the wee hours.

Boris - Heavy Rocks (the new purple one). I bought this and Attention Please yesterday. They are great.

I love the joke about his losing his girl.

Be Here to Love Me is really worth watching.

Yeah, that's great too.  I just watched 'Heartworn Highways' which is a little dated but has lots of great performances.

I need to hear this, fonpr, I grew up in East Nashville. Google nashville shelby park and you will see the wilds where I was raised.

Yes!  So amazing.  Guy Clark was great too. 

This one is also a recent listen:



'The Cape' is my favorite song lately.
"Heave Ho!"

I played "The Cape" three times today. 

One time Eric Bibb's version.

haha! You're mocking me, arent' you? Not the sentiment but my failed attempt to trim down a quote.
