An introduction to Ryan Adams

My son has always suggested I might like Ryan Adams' music. I must have tried a clip somewhere and was not impressed. However there is a great website called www.allmusic.com. This has short extracts from all the tracks on loads of albums. And those from "Gold" encouraged me to buy the CD.

I was not disappointed. In fact there are two of the best back to back tracks I have heard for a long time. "When the stars go blue" and "Nobody Girl" are outstanding, especially the chorus on the former and the verse and instrumental opening and closing on the latter. This song makes me go weak at the knees and goes straight to my all time favourites. Thanks Michael.
