When I saw that you had Eddie Vedder and his damned ukelele on the Weekend Mix I was set to hit the skip button. I didn't. 'Without You' has a touch of Cat Stevens and Glen Hansard and I'll admit I liked it very much. I hate you!<br />Ron Sexsmith was a no-brainer and I was glad to see the Smithereens and Cake. <br />I think Adele deserved a spot. Didn't much care for her 1st album but I'm loving the new one.<br />The big finds for me were Liam Finn and especially Gerry Beckley. Great tunes! Thanks for turning me on to them.cmealhanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-73587585667294456292011-06-17T18:51:54.714-07:002011-06-17T18:51:54.714-07:00Thanks Sal - just downloaded and looking forward t...Thanks Sal - just downloaded and looking forward to hearing.

Per...What, no Robbie Robertson on your list?? (jk)<br /><br />Personally, I have really liked the new Rebirth Brass Band disc a lot this year. Warren Haynes and Smithereens are excellent too. Just picked up the new Marc Broussard yesterday, and the jury is still out on it.

I don't want to second guess the master but I would say my live show of the year so far was Joel Plaskett and The Emergency.<br /><br />I know there is more to life than Rock and Roll stardom but why this guy isn't huge is beyond me. Joel has a new record out this week of B sides, alternates and outtakes -- essential for the fan but maybe not the place to start for the uninitiated.<br /><br />If you get the chance to see him live or listen to any of his records grab it.<br /><br />Have a great weekend.<br /><br />JayessemmJAYESSEMMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00043689582943456784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4357001616333664522.post-7887303880136715842011-06-17T06:10:50.922-07:002011-06-17T06:10:50.922-07:00Thanks BW.

I'm an oldie and my music tastes run to "The Big Chill" era, but you have such great ideas about music that I'm eager to hear your picks for the best of this year - and any year. Really appreciate your kindness.
