HOLY CRAP, Spidey!! Do you have visions or sumthin? :shock: :shock: If you look in my dining room window right now, you'll see the Steady On songbook open to Cry Like An Angel!!! NO LIE!!! That's SCARY, that is!!

Phenomenal song, phenomenal artist..... thanks for sharing that one. Open G, capo on the 5th fret.

"There were high school night dances
Where we played stump the band
We were raising each other
In a strange land
There were hard pills to swallow
But we drank 'em all down
Oh the nights were too short then
Now they're a little too long...."

:D :D

Apparently his spider senses are serving him well, John!! :shock: You may be sorry you mentioned your unfamiliarity with Shawn C. because now I have this desire to bombard you with all my favorites!! I'll try to show some mercy, though..... :wink: There's no one quite as good and as awesome as Shawn Colvin. Her Steady On CD is always with me, one in my house, and one in my truck. Same with Fat City and Cover Girl.

Thanks again, Spidey for posting!! :D

You'd look cool in that strap John, but pass on the dress :twisted:
Tom, I know you have a thing for Shawn so it was an easy guess, as for the songbook, my 8 legged minions are everywhere, everywhere, BWAHHAHA.

:lol: Well,......I've gone ahead and opted for a few of her Cds instead. :wink: Tom PMed me some great videos and songs, and I loved each one. Such Beautiful music, great lyrics...... So I'm starting from scratch. I ordered her First and second album, as well as the 'best of'. Eagerly awaiting them to arrive. See what you two have started. :D

Spiderman,

Never heard of her, until Now!

More great new material to work on. For anyone that uses ITunes, she has about 150+ songs on there. Another great find. :D

Article by Ms. Colvin in today's Wall Street Journal. In case the link goes away or behind a pay wall it is just a story of a couple of her adventures "on the road' as a musician. I thought the writing was good which bodes well for a songwriter or maybe her prose is good because she writes songs.
