A damn fine new album.

I love this man's music

 

[klang]

one of my all-time faves.

i find the lack of ry-heads round here mildly upsetting.

 

[SaskiaJayne]

Oh I'm a reasonable Ry-head. Perhaps most of the forum users are quite young.

 

[boohoo]

I use to listen to quite a lot of his stuff cos my mum use to play it.

Paris Texas takes some beating for a film score. Having said that I also like Chávez Ravine - note you young un's it's not a place where they throw all the chavs!

 

[Nanker Phelge]

I liked Paris Texas, Johnny Handsome soundtracks, he did some of the Performance soundtrack too and that was good. When I explored other stuff it all sounded a bit too polished and over produced.....or not very genuine.....

Teardrops Will Fall

 

[Humberto]

In with Neil Young for me because I know some of his recordings but there's loads I haven't gotten around too.

He tends to play all the various instruments on his tracks in the studio, and just adds the backing vocals, or he did at that stage.
