5. Iron and Wine (Sub Pop cd, 2002): in which some bearded Miami dude from South Carolina named Sam Beam channels the deceptively gentle psyche-folk (& blues, tho' there aren't any real rags or hollers) muse in a manner so damn beautiful. I now have the perfect record to play after Tommy Flanders' The Moonstone (Verne Forecast lp, 1969). 6. Ray Price and the Cherokee Cowboys (Bear Family 10 cd set, 1995): yeah, two handfuls might be a little much but really, only a just little. When I get heartsick for barbecue, soil, sky, long horizons and Shiner, this is the sorta shit I listen to. Thought of the night: Don't trust a Texan who doesn't love at least some Willie Nelson. Button of the day: Kiss Me, I'm Ernest Tubb! 7. Syd Barrett Wouldn't You Miss Me? (Harvest cd, 2001): did I really need to buy this (an estimable anthology drawn from three records I already own in multiple versions), just for the previously unreleased, "Bob Dylan's Blues"? Apparently so. 8. Tuli Kuperferg: various readings.
