The top five from my list of albums that don't have a wasted track. Obviously heavy on albums I first heard in my 20s, back when I thought popular song could change your life. sigh.
1) Court and Spark (with a pass for Twisted, which I don't think fits.) A friend suggests Blue, but I like Joni better when her voice is in a lower register.
2) Blood On The Tracks. Lots of Dylan options. But this one hit at the right time. I can twist most of my relationships to fit one of these songs.
3) Late For the Sky. Ditto.
4) Zuma. (with a pass for Stupid Girl.) Cortez The Killer! And the last decent CSN&Y song.
5) The Roches. This is actually the album (and song) that made me compile this list. Great, great album.
Townes Van Zandt, y'all.
These are the drawings that caught my eye from this year's Chalk It Up.
