Greetings gentleman, after reading your posts I am more anxious to listen to the new CD. I am also waiting to receive mine in the mail. Garfish, when you receive yours be sure to post you thoughts, I am curious to read what you have to say. I know you are addicted to the Junckies :-)
Cowboy Junkies "Open" opinions
I just got the new album today and I'm not very enthusiastic. The first five cuts are what I'd describe as acid grunge, not to my liking. Track six is good but seems out of context with the rest of the album, but from at least here on it is more enjoyable. I like track nine the best. I listened twice through using tube electronics and once with solid state, much better with tubes. My current preference for seven albums I have are #1 "Lay It Down", #2 "Black Eyed Man", #3 " The Trinity Session", #4 "Whites off the Earth Now", #5 "MIles from our Home", #6 "Cresent Moon", #7 the latest "Open". Margo has such a great voice that I don't know why they don't display better.
