JD Souther

A few things; JD is playing near me next Saturday, I have a ticket, got it a few months back, mostly out of curiosity and a desire to see/hear as many artists live while I and they still can.  Second, I recently watched the DVD The Sound Of My Voice (Linda Ronstadt), and he was interviewed there.  Third, I dug out my two (more on the way) JD discs, and discovered how fantastic his 2011 recording, Natural History, is.  Sound is wonderful (he thanks Kyle Lehning for mixing the record he wanted to hear), songs are great, its so fantastic.  If you like that style of "southern california singer/songwriter" music.  I do.

Black Rose is my second JD disc, have three more on the way.  Agree, too, about silver blue.  I recall when I bought Black Rose the man who owns the shop was shocked, and told me then that it was his favorite disc of all time.  So there are those who appreciate the man and the music.

bdp, I think we have some overlapping tastes; I too  dislike Eagles, adore Linda, and think JB is wonderful.  I think JD is worth the time/effort it takes to acclimate.

I have seen it, I purchased the DVD, first time watching I choked up/sobbed multiple times.  So many great artists in it, like Emmylou, the McGarrigles.  I saw the sisters once, long ago, in NYC, at the now gone Bottom Line, was enamored and in love after the show.  A few years back went to DC for a tribute concert for Emmy, its on DVD, was magical.  Music is, well, you know.  Buddy and Julie are at the top, as is Vince, many many others, for me.
