@slaw  - That was my feeling a couple of years ago when I bought it. But I'll give it another shot and see if I've changed my mind.

@boxer12 

"Push it out", what are they talking about there?

Funny you should ask. Had never heard it before. But when I was sitting there listening to it I was thinking "I don't even what to know what they're talking about."

After reading the lyrics on-line, still don't want to know...

Delvon Lamarr Organ Trio - "Close But No Cigar"

Coleman Records - Numbered, Limited Edition on beautiful translucent Coke Bottle Green vinyl. Got an early copy from the guys at my local record store - Plaid Room Records, who also happen to own/run the record label - Colemine Records.......

Funky Organ Soul Jazz........
The Rainmakers - "The Good News and the Bad News"

I've had the CD since it was released in 1990. Finally picked up a copy on vinyl and I'm really enjoying it....

Great Midwestern Americana Rock and Roll (my description).........
Nils Lofgren - "Acoustic Live" - Analogue Productions - A great sounding record......

Second record from the latest Plaid Room pile...

Daniel Lanois - "Acadie"

Promo copy from WYSO - Yellow Springs, Ohio - Listener Supported Radio. Yellow Springs, location of Antioch College and lifelong home to Dave Chappelle. It's a really cool small town...

Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young - "American Dream"

I'm loving it! I probably haven't listened to this record in 20 years. I'm listening and remembering why I bought it in the first place, long ago..........
@tooblue - YES it is! Really enjoyed "Gold Plated" tonight. Haven'y listened to it in a year or so.

Based on your post, tomorrow night - "Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School". Another great one, released just after my high school years......
Climax Blues Band - "Gold Plated" 

From my high school years. Still love it........
So, I'm listening to Warren Zevon's "Bad Luck Streak in Dancing School" (Thanks @tooblue ) and reading the credits in the liner notes. How's this list of musicians?

Credits to:

David Lindley
Leland Skylar
Rick Marotta
Waddy Watchel
Don Felder
Jorge Calderon
Jackson Browne
Linda Ronstadt
Joe Walsh
Glenn Frey
J.D. Souther
Don Henley
Ben Keith

And a co-writer credit to The Boss - Bruce Springsteen for "Jennie Needs a Shooter"

Not bad, not bad...........
Jimbo Mathus and the Tri-State Coalition - "Dark Night of the Soul"

Authentic!
@slaw and @tooblue - I love "Just Won't Burn". I saw Tedeschi back in the day, shortly after that album came out. What a great artist. Haven't enjoyed her as much since she hooked up with that trucker.......;~)

Supertramp - "Brother Where You Bound?"

Supertramp's best IMHO, by a good margin. And without Roger Hodgson. Maybe that's why?
@slaw - From Wiki - David Gilmour – guitar solos on Brother Where You Bound

Just the one song, but it's about 30% - 40% of the album run time.......
USPS just showed up with a nice package......

Listening to my newly acquired copy of Roger McGuinn - "Back From Rio". 

I really like this record. I've had it on CD since it was released in 1990 or so. But the vinyl LP is better in every way.....

Up Next - The bonus record that came with "back from Rio". Brewer and Shipley - "ST11261". I have no idea what to expect. Never heard this record and I'm unfamiliar with the artist, only knowing their hit "One Toke Over the Line", which is not on this record.....
Just getting around to my bonus record - Brewer and Shipley - "ST11261". I'm almost completely unfamiliar with these guys. Honestly, had no idea what to expect. But I like it! Not bad at all and the sound quality is really good. Not the kind of music I was listening to in 1974 when it was released. But I like it in 2018.
@slaw - Have you seen Shovels and Rope live? Awesome stuff. I’ve been fortunate to see them a few times, in small venues, up close and personal. Some of my favorite live shows. I’ve always left feel they put everything out there and were completely spent when they walked off the stage.

You might not know it by listening to their studio albums, but there live show ROCK!
@slaw  - I listened to  Colter Wall - "Songs of the Plains" via Spotify. Very nice. Great voice for his style of music.
Boston - S/T

Haven't listened to this record in years. Brings back some great memories........

Teenage son and his friend dropped into my listening room and wanted to hear "The Rager" So, on went...

 

Kyle Craft - "Full Circle Nightmare"

 

Not from the latest Plaid Room Records Haul....
