Until recently, I never much cared for Ryan Adams, the insanely prolific alt-country rocker who cut his teeth in the North Carolina band Whiskeytown. Then, Lost Highway records sent me a copy of Jacksonville City Nights, one of the three albums Adams released with his band, the Cardinals, in the past two years. Unlike Adams' other more rock-oriented albums, this one leans heavily toward Gram Parsons-style country, and the more subdued mood really suits me. I especially like this track "Don't Fail Me Now," with its haunting piano and mournful fiddles. You can listen if you read more

This is the kind of song that I always think I hate until I actually listen to it. I love that you post a variety of songs for song of the day - it gets me to listen to such different things!
1I'm with you, Buzz. I loved Heartbreaker but I haven't been a fan of any of his other stuff until this record came out.
I love and miss Whiskeytown, though.
2If this great song is any indication, this could be a wondrful CD. Can't wait to hear it all.
3The song is ok. I have heard better.
4My ex-boyfriend introduced me to Ryan Adams and I was in love with his music. Except now it reminds me of my ex and I can't listen to it! *Sigh*
