Judy Collins, "Fifth Album".

If I ever meet the people who negotiated those "5 great albums" package deals for Rhino records, I will hug them.

The Live at the Filmore version kicks some serious ass. Its from their first US tour in 69. Apparently at some of these sets the American hippy audience thought they were getting a peace and love flower power band :D

Quite a while ago I said I'd been listening to the you tube generated Swedish sisters "First Aid Kit: their songs are hauntingly beautiful.

This is their version of a Patty Smith song (as soimeone noted if you can bring Patti Smith to tears you've made it. I get a huge tingle up my spine listening to these girls & close to tears ona few of their songs). I just find them remarkable:

& another song because they're so damn good:

Just went out & bought First Aid Kit's: "The Lions Roar" their second album.

Title track:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... l5FdvRR4pQ -

Playing it through the blu ray - sounds pretty good on the book shelf speakers Usher S520.

If anyone is interested in buying small speakers I reckon consider these, they're great sounding & great value for the money (for bookshelf speakers). Bought mine a few years ago & have been very happy with them.
