This is so cool, I consider Whiskeytown “Pneumonia” one of my top three albums and I love hearing this stuff, thank you for sharing!
Gregor,
Great stuff – haven’t heard these songs in years. Made me remember that I once actually liked Ryan Adams.
Tracks 10 & 11 aren’t working properly, at least for me.
yeah its crazy that at one time he was pretty awesome. he’s just so freakin hit or miss the past few records and its hard to get into any of his later releases. maybe just make a mix of the good/great songs off those records and call it a day. btw, 10 and 11 are working fine for me…
I’m getting a “file not found” message when I try to download. They stream just fine though.
Very cool. Thanks Gregor. Whiskeytown is one band, maybe the only band, that I wish I never saw live. They would have been a nice band to have had a little air of mystery around them. So talented but such a tremendous tool. For years after seeing them live, I had a difficult time listening to them objectively. I’ve gotten past it. If Mandy can accept him, so can I.
