What's new

Last good song you listened to?

That Lou Reed/Antony song, specifically Lou made me think of Johnny Cash's Hurt album.

The American song book albums are great, there's a great story about Rick Rubin who produced them calling Nick Cave and saying "Nick, its Rick Rubin I'm working with Johnny Cash he wants to cover the Mercy Seat is that ok?"

Nick said, I paused to not sound too eager and said "yeah that's ok"

and Rick Rubin says "yeah i thought it would be all right."

Cash did some of his very best work in the few years before his death. The true epitome of an artist. Sad to see him pass, but man did he go out with a bang. The man is THE legend in music.
