Hothouse Flowers  "Into Your Heart".

I have always been a big fan.  

I thought "Songs from the Rain" was a superb album, very well crafted as individual songs and as an album as a whole, with tremendous vocals, great songwriting, and excellent musicianship.

I also liked "Home" and "People", though not as much as this album and "Songs from the Rain".

Into your Heart isn't as all around as good as "Songs", but it has some really great vocals, and some highly personal lyrics.  I have felt for a long time that these guys were a very underrated band, never getting the due they deserve.
A third-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the majority. A second-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking with the minority. A first-rate mind is only happy when it is thinking.

A quotation is a handy thing to have about, saving one the trouble of thinking for oneself.

Speaking of great music....they have the whole Stevie Wonder collection out now.  A buddy of mine at work let me borrow it.  Amazing how some of the muscians can put out solid albums for 3-4 decades in a row.  Talk about longevity.

Anyone listen to Los Lonely Boys out of San Angelo, Texas? 3 piece band, all fleshly brothers, amazing talent. Just saw them live the other day. Impressive sound out of a 3 piece band. Great energy.

101 is always braggi about his Abba collection too....
On the set of Walker Texas Ranger Chuck Norris brought a dying lamb back to life by nuzzling it with his beard. As the onlookers gathered, the lamb sprang to life. Chuck Norris then roundhouse kicked it, killing it instantly. The lesson? The good Chuck giveth, and the good Chuck, he taketh away.

Dare I say...anything with Hootie and the Blowfish?  

Seriously, Darius Rucker, the lead singer of Hootie made a solo jazzy, R&B album that is smooth, and Jill Scott had a few duets with him on it.  She's tight.  (shuttup x3.)
