| which cowboy junkies cd? I saw the Junkies live in DC at Wolftrap the "National Park for the Performance Arts" a few years ago. It's true, they're not a dynamic live show, but I would still recommend seeing their show to anyone who is a fan. They have a DVD out that's qui... | |

| which cowboy junkies cd? Absolutely Larryi! "Neath the Covers" was a freebe with my purchase of "One Soul Now" and is one of my favorites. | |
| which cowboy junkies cd? My favorite is "Lay it Down". I don't see too many folks citing a similar preference, but IMO that's the one with the best songs all the way through. Trinity Sessions surely isn't a bad place to start and it has that unique "airiness" given the wa... | |
