Just a comment on Lauderdale and most probably an unpopular one -
I really do like him but I have to complain about the vocal mix on his last
cd.
Way too out front, pretty grating on the ears. He has a nice voice, but
most of the cd sounds as though he had his lips stapled to the microphone so
Bill, just to refresh my memory, you were recommending Planet of
Love as the best Lauderdale album, right?

Three months ago, there was a thread here about "getting" Jim Lauderdale. A
few of us fans felt like Jim hadn't really gotten his due as both a great
