You mean...  :-\

No polka...  :'(

Not until there is a freak accident and some polka CDs are delivered to my address by mistake.  :D

Was the whoopee cushion named after him, or vice versa?

Damn, I actually thought long and hard about including that Cowboy Junkies album.

I also thought someone would call me out for my last selection, as I posted it as a joke to see if anyone was paying attention. :P

I've never heard of the Kenny Wayne Shepherd Band...I thought it might be some white blues guy. I wasn't about to question your integrity :D  You know, with a name like that, it could also be a country band...except he isn't wearing a cowboy hat  ;D

Dave - I give up!  ;D  Just went through the 'Jazz Desert Island' recordings and ran out @ the beginning of the alphabet; now, I have so many of the ones already mentioned here - just too hard a choice for me?   :)   

But, I'll enjoy seeing the choices of others, likely to add to my already 'large' collection in this area!  Dave  :)

I understand. This is an extremely silly exercise.

It certainly is...and even sillier that I've wasted an entire day of my life making these silly lists  ;D

Ha! Indeed. Though I'm always interested in your views, Sarge.

I came this close to listing that Albert King album, and some Mississippi John Hurt (I have the 60s stuff).   Nearly awesome taste, dude.
The man that hath no music in himself,
Nor is not moved with concord of sweet sounds,
Is fit for treasons, stratagems, and spoils.
The motions of his spirit are dull as night,
And his affections dark as Erebus.
Let no such man be trusted.

-- William Shakespeare, The Merchant of Venice

There will never be another era like the Golden Age of Hollywood.  We didn't know how to blow up buildings then so we had no choice but to tell great stories with great characters.-Ben Mankiewicz

I love folk, and some country I hold high as well. Blues just ain't my thing.

Won't include the blues on this list, because there's too many I'd like to include:

Woody Guthrie--Dust Bowl Ballads
Woody Guthrie--The Best of the War Years
Hank Williams Sr--40 Greatest Hits
Hank Snow-RCA Country Legends
Buck Owens--The Best of, Vol 1
Johnny Cash--Live at Folsom Prison
Bob Dylan--Nashville Skyline
Bob Dylan--Blood on the Tracks
Merle Haggard--Back to the Barrooms
Hank III--Risin' Outlaw

Some cool stuff here, and some I haven't heard. To remedy that somewhat, I now own the Fairport Convention album that Rubio posted.
