....when you spend a lot of time driving mobs of grand-daughters and their BFF's around the county , you eventually realize that you have inadvertently learned the lyrics to every Taylor Swift song ever written....not a bad thing I suppose....she's really quite good...

....personally though , when driving alone , I like to slip Joan Baez's '' Diamonds And Rust '' cassette into the dash of my ancient Buick Park Avenue and the miles just melt away....

for a female Gretchen Parlato

Nobody had a voice like Patsy Cline & Elvis is STILL KING!

Roy Orbison a close 2nd & if you never heard of Lonnie Donegan & his Skiffle Group you haven't lived!

Nervous Norvus & "Transfusion" --Greatest novelty record ever!

[toppcat]

Part and parcel to me:

Bad Religion - Greg Graffin
Social Distortion - Mike Ness
Lucero - Ben Nichols
Descendents - Milo Aukerman
Drag The River - Chad Price and Jon Snodgrass

I also like Sinatra a lot on the non R&R front. I'd probably have to include Muddy Waters as well.

Whether it was with Buffalo Springfield, solo, Crazy Horse, CSNY, always thought provoking, socially conscious and equally adept accoustically or electronic. If anybody deserves one of those Kennedy Center medals, it's Neil.

Keep on Rockin' in the Free World!

I always prefer female singers. The last several years, I have really enjoyed Eva Cassidy, who died far too early.

I got through heavy traffic coming home from a long road trip today listening to her Greatest Hits...wonderful! Once I had heard all the sound twice, I slid in 'Prisoner in Disguise' by Linda Ronstadt, my all-time favorite. I had not heard it in a while and forgot what wonderful 'pips' she had. Unfortunately, she now has Parkinson's and can no longer sing.

I intend to send her a letter of appreciation for how much her gift has enriched my life. I wish I had been able to do the same for Eva Cassidy.

Even though our favorite singers have millions of fans, and they probably won't get to read our letters personally, I feel we owe them a minute of our time to show some appreciation. It might even brighten up one of their days- who knows...

Elvis, Cash, Sinatra.
