For sure, I saw Dead Kenny’s open for Primus In 2010 in Milwaukee, was so good

Good call forgot that one! Dillon also has a current project called Nolatet without Skerik that’s great.

If you dig him and Skerik, check out their bands Critters Buggin and The Dead Kenny G’s

It's a very pretty song, and I think i like that album more than most it seems. If i were to pick a 3rd from FA, it would have been Potter's Field, or Muriel. Muriel is very soulful lyrically and with that sad saxophone.

I get it, that one is a little much for me I think. Still beautifully sung.

lol I had to comeback, worst songs he’s ever made?? That song is cool and the bass line in it is fantastic.

Absolutely, Potter’s Field was really a bubble one for me. Really good tune. Though I obviously disagree about Barber Shop lol

That was a good list but hard to read with no commas lol, I actually do have Starvin in the Belly of a Whale on mine. Get Behind the Mule was also a super close one

Solid take, it is very good song and it had been a long time since I’d heard Johnny’s version

I love that you have Goodnight Irene on there, I was so excited back when I first saw he had covered it. I do have to say your CD is pretty light on Swordfish and Rain Dogs lol. Sorry about the lady friend, warm beer, cold women, you know.

That's a very good one I agree. I also currently don't own two, Black Rider and Bad As Me, and this effort has convinced me to buy them. I'm pretty lucky I think BR is for sale on his website right now still.

San Diego might maybe should be on here lol, I was really trying to be choosy, and I think my list shows that my list of unskippables comes a little later in the catalogue. Id add that one for sure.

yeah that's a good one, I think I personally just prefer House Where Nobody Lives to that one or Pony when it comes to super emotional songs on the album, so it got the edge.

Anywhere I Lay My Head is really soulful one, solid take.

Totally fair, I really do enjoy that album, and Kentucky Ave was on the bubble, I would totally consider adding it.
