Music Thread: The Unbearable Lightness Of Messenger Bags
Look what we found in Garrett's closet!

I don't know much about "New Country," because mostly it seems all the same and has too much of a pop sound... and because I am a curmudgeon who hates everything new.
But I heard this and sort of liked it. Is it "New Country?" Yeah...it sort of is...I guess. But I like it anyway.
Scott Helmer - Small Town Saturday Night
***
Everybody has done covers of this, but I like CCR...a lot. So I am predisposed to liking their version.
Creedence Clearwater Revival - Hello Mary Lou
Although I think the first time I ever heard the song was the New Riders Of The Purple Sage. Yeah...there's no accounting for taste!

Jackson Browne is a toad. That being said...his version of
Stay is damned good. But he's still a toad.
***
Hootie & The Blowfish -
Let Her Cry
Shut up. I think they are a professional band. Great? No. But they remind me of my youth, and in a good way.
***
I'm sure I have linked this song before, but it is one of my favorites, so as usual, you will be punished with my taste!
The Waterboys - Fisherman's Blues
***
Hard to beat this. Southern Rock doesn't get much better than
Lynyrd Skynyrd -
Sweet Home Alabama.

When I think of Todd Rundgren I don't think of goofy stuff like this, but what the hell; it's fun!
Todd Rundgren - Bang The Drum All Day
