The lead >singer's voice is fracking awesome and totally makes the band what it >is. Saw these guys live in a small venue up the street in Atlanta and >it was one of the best shows I have ever attended to date.

Personally, it's >kinda my West Coast Soundtrack. I saw him live in SD and also in >Atlanta about 3 years ago. He's still touring AFAIK, and very soulful >and great music. I should seek out another tour date if he's still >playing venues. Slower stuff and some can be depressing but really >have alot of emotion to his music. >http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E8cMy-Jmoso > >Kevn Kinney >Kevn was the lead singer for a band called Drivin n Cryin, which was a >big time southern band when I was in high school, but didn't make it >too far beyond the south AFAIK. They still regularly play shows in >the Atlanta area, particularly festivals. They often toured with >Peter Buck (of REM). I was looking for the YouTube version of "The >House Above Tina's Grocery", which is one of my favorite songs of his, >but all I could find was this live performance (Tina's Grocery starts >at about the 3:20 mark).

Church was something that was fairly >routine thing in my family and I didn't enjoy it at all, aside from >the social aspects of "youth group". This song so perfectly summed up >my feelings about religeon at the time that I could hardly stand it. >http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hk41Gbjljfo > >The Stone Roses >I have probably listened to the song Fools Gold more than any song >ever. This is an album I could play over and over, but particularly >Fools Gold (and Elephant Stone) were some of the best music I could >have ever imagined at the time. They came out with a second album >that was bigger on the radio (called Second Coming), but the first was >far better IMHO. >http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k4bHMVAKDao > >Others >- Camper Van Bethoven >- Pixies >...too many to mention > >-Cameron > >...
