OMG, Good Music

I'm currently listening to Billy Bragg sing a duet of Johnny Cash's song "I Still Miss Someone" with Rosanne Cash. Amazing!

It's the November 21 performance of Mountain Stage.

I'll try to find and post a link directly to the episode if anyone is interested.

I am interested in a link!

OK. Here's the link to Billy Bragg's set (http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=97540882). I couldn't find a link to the entire show, but I'll look again when I get home tonight.

I love Billy Bragg... He's been an influence of mine for sometime now.. His cover of "Everywhere" is one of the most incredible things... (It's a WWII era protest song. An oddity in itself.)

I got to see him in the mid nineties, opening for BNL... It was just him on stage with a guitar, for the most part. A girl would come out here and there and play piano, and do some harmony... But it was all Billy... It's one of the most incredible moments I've had in a concert.

That sounds like a great show. He's one of those performers I'd really love to see live.

Cool! My buddies The Argument were on Mountain Stage a few years back (before they broke up).

It's another of the podcasts that I really love. Although, I don't think the link in my list is to the same feed that I listen to. I'll have to double check.

Listening to the duet now. It's really incredible.

I should give you some Grant-Lee Phillips -- you'd like him. Neko Case as well.

That'd be great. I'm always up for new music, although in this case I think I have heard a little of both of their music before. The names definitely sound familiar.

They're both awesome. Remind me next time I see you and I'll burn you a couple CDs.

Cool. I'll try to remember.
