Whiskeytown – Those Weren’t The Days

Apr 21st, 07 / 0 Comments

I don’t have much info on this, just that it was recorded sometime between Faithless Street & Stranger’s Almanac and never released. I read somewhere that Ryan Adams wanted it released when Faithless Street was re-released but that never happened for whatever reason. I could not find any artwork online so I just whipped something up real quick.

Whiskeytown – Rural Free Delivery

Apr 20th, 07 / 1 Comment

Released in 1997 fresh on the heels of Stranger’s Almanac, this now out of print E.P. is a collection of early recordings and was released by their first record label to try to capitalize on their major label debut. It also features some of Whiskeytown’s (and Ryan Adam’s) most “alt-country” songs to date. What that means is there’s alot of punk in this here country (think Uncle Tupelo). Featuring 8 songs, a couple are alternate versions of songs available on the essential Faithless Street (Tennessee Square & Angels Are Messengers From God, which became the title track off Faithless Street)

1. Take Your Guns To Town
2. Nervous Breakdown
3. Tennessee Square
4. Captain Smith
5. Macon, Georgia County Line
6. Pawnshop Ain’t No Place For A Wedding Ring
7. Oklahoma
8. Angels Are Messengers From God

Whiskeytown – Acoustic

Apr 9th, 07 / 0 Comments

This is a nice little acoustic set from Whiskeytown’s acoustic tour supporting “Stranger’s Almanac”. That’s about all the information I have on this, but it’s a good set of tunes. The highlight of this disc are the Mountain Stage songs at the end….perfect sound quality, and great, great performances. Also worth Mention is an excellent cover of Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams”.

Ryan Adams – Live at Das Haus October 17, 2006

Apr 3rd, 07 / 0 Comments

Ryan Adams also has a new album coming out in a month or so, so here is one of his live shows. Pulled from Archive.org, this is a REAL laid back show even though he has a full band behind him. If you’ve never heard Ryan sing “Magnolia Mountain” you need to give it listen…..great, great version with some sweet, sweet pedal steel. This recording is very “Grateful Dead-like” with some slowed down versions of “To Be Young” and “Kiss Before I Go”. This is not the rousing honky tonk of Jacksonville City Nights but it has it’s place. I especially love the sweet, sweet pedal steel throughout all the songs (did I already say that :P ). Nice version of “Let it Ride” to finish it off too.
