pike51 Don't think we're going to impress big Steve, McMurtry is a great storyteller.

P1....This guy (J.McMurtry) IS a songwriter! Very nice indeed. Tight band as well. Impressive....and I can see him making a living in this industry. It will be a cult following...but, so what. He is talented.

    Common Sense........Common sense just tells me.............they suck!

    darpar

    Wild Horses............Hmmm.......Listening to her sing...,.could drag me away.

    Rodney Crowell............Band is tight..,.Do not like the way he plays to the camera...But, just another band...nothing extraordinary. Plain Jane would have been a better name for the band.

    What else ya' got?

    Bangoman I would suggest many of those I mentioned fall into that category. I'm not much for mainstream stuff. I like niche stuff... doesn't appeal to everyone.

      Pike..........That is what I used to say about Mad River, Quick Silver Messenger Service, Illinois Speed Press, The Illusion and Taste (Rory G.) But, it turns out that some break out with or without the group. But, the player or players that have the talent they will MOST CERTAINLY get noticed. What was considered Cult blazes into Glory!

      Now...what else ya' got?

      How about some Hayes Carll?

      Todd Snyder:

      Aaron Lee Tasjan (make sure to finish this one, great story here):

        Seeing Hayes Carll Friday, or is it Saturday, at Old Settlers Music Festival. Rodney C. is Friday.

        Hey Bango let's see you post some tasty tunes and see what you can bring to the table! 😉

          Hayes Karl and Bonnie.........Just terrible. No stage presence in the least. They have played wayyy too many small town bars.......and they perform like it.

          Todd Snider..........Interesting song writing for The Kingsmen. BUT...He is a poormans Neil Young with a bit of Dylan thrown in (badly) I might add).

          Will review Aaron tomorrow.

            darpar I'll help Steve out. I'm fairly certain this would be in his top 5.
