Damon Albarn - Everyday Robots

Inexplicably, a CD that has not been played for a while. The Naims are getting to the heart of the groove. And, it being a day off, a cold San Mig has been broached.

Emmylou Harris and Rodney Crowell - Old Yellow Moon

Another Emmylou collaboration, this time with Rodney Crowell, who used to record with her in the Hot Band. This is one spectacular album. If you like the Robert Plant / Alison Krauss collaboration, you really must hear this.

Did they record another album together after this one ?
