Waylon Jennings -- Honky Tonk Heroes ("The devil made me do it the first time, the second time I did it on my own")
Listening to the Codeine box set right now and then Steve Reich/John Adams "Shaker Loops" next both on vinyl. The Parker/Lee/Evans "The Bleeding Edge" and Cassandra Wilson "Another Country" both on CD.
I've been obsessed with this music and the movie, since I first saw it a couple of weeks ago. Just ordered the cd, but can't find the dvd for a reasonable price. If anyone has any suggestions, I sure would be grateful!
My favourite things on there are the opener, Guy Clark's 'LA Freeway', all the gorgeous Townes Van Zandt tunes, and as I went on about it on fb, the amazing Larry Jon Wilson's 'Ohoopee River Bottomland'... one of the most perfect Southern-fried numbers I've ever heard, check him out with this great band!
RIP, Larry Jon Wilson...

Picked up the Duke Ellington Violin LP as well as mint copies of U2's The Unforgettable Fire and Neil Young's Comes a Time. I don't collect much pop on vinyl but these two are exceptions from my "yout".
