Legalsounds has a couple....go for "Fly Between Falls" it's good, old fashioned hippy music (and still $0.99)

Sun Kil Moon - Neil Young from the classic period of "Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere"

Haven't went through the entire list yet,but I plan to.
So far the first one has sounded good.

Just as an aside,I,ve been listening to JJ Cale all week now!

Dave C · **Anyone know of Danielson or The Danielson Famile -** 06-04-2008, 10:01 PM

Just got an album by Danielson (or The Danielson Famile??) called Ships and I am absolutely loving it. Never heard of them before and was wondering if anyone here had & could recommend which of their other albums are worth trying (e-music seem to have them all)?
Cheers,
Dave C

And I like a lot of different genres.

There are a lot of bands out there,many I have never even heard any of their music.
I pick one as a wildcard now and then,and very seldom find one I like.

Do any of these newer artists sound like or resemble the style of any of these groups?
Rock:
1.Pink Floyd(Wish You Were Here/Animals)
2.The Doors
3.Dire Straits
4.Boston(Boston)
5.Kansas
6.Led Zeppelin
7.Peter Frampton
8.Ted Nugent
9.The Moody Blues
10.ZZ Top
11.CCR
12.Black Sabbath

Country:
Anything sound a likes from the Merle Haggard,George Jones,Marty Robbins,Willie Nelson,Charley Pride,Conway Twitty era?

I have heard of many of the newer artists from the USA,both country and rock,and don't like them much.
It is the artists that maybe have never been released or went mainstream in the US that I am interested in.
I found this artist,Johannes Hopfner,that I like on jamando.com.
Or Solal.This group is good too,but only has 1 album.
Never heard of them before and probally never would have if I didn't just pick a wildcard.

Some really good mellow flattop guitar pickin' would be good too.
Stuff like Mike Oldfield.
Who cares what language the artist speaks as long as they can pick a good tune?

EDIT: What is with the time limit anymore when being logged in?
The short time that I wrote this message to a text document,then paste it in the new thread I'm starting,I had to re-login.
It logs me out too soon unless I keep active with new pages.

Have you tried anything by The New Pornographers ? They have 4 cd's and the first 3 are really good (imho), the last one is a bit different but still 4 stars.

And even if you don't love their music, you simply gotta love that name...
