OMG... Joe Henry


I really can't explain why I had never discovered Joe Henry.  He's associated with some of my all-time favorite artists:  Elvis Costello, Billy Bragg, Vic Chesnutt, and others...  How did his genius escape me for all of these years???
A good friend of mine recently turned me on to him.  I'm so thankful...
Please check him out if you are so inclined to discovering great music that falls outside of the main stream.

I need to listen to more Joe Henry. Can't even remember how long I've loved the magically beautiful Lighthouse. It's James Joyce set to music.

Captain eat your beefy heart out!

Joe and Rodney Crowell perform together on ACL: Americana Honors on some PBS stations tomorrow (Saturday, 11/23). Other great acts, too.

His gorgeous new album "The Gospel According to Water".  Stunning and moving.  +1 for Joe!
