Cowboy Junkies


I recently purchased a copy of "Open" and I love it. The music is great and Margo Timmins's voice is warm and terrific.
Which other Cowboy Junkies albums would I enjoy given my success with Open?

Hi.

Note that the "space-rocker" Open is quite different from the much folkier albums that made CJ famous: Trinity, Caution Horses, and Black Eyed Man. The earlier ones are my faves, but if you're keen on Open, try some of the middle to recent catalog, like Lay It Down, Pale Moon, and One Soul Now. Miles from Our Home immediately preceded Open; it's trending in that direction, but I like it much better -- a fine record.

CJ has a good website, and sell direct for good prices, depending on exchange rate. A nice recording is the limited release Acoustic Junk, which may turn up on their website. (I think their recordings tend to be better than average for pop/rock.)

And go see them, if you haven't. They're on the road a lot. Sleepy shows, but warm and friendly.
