Cowboy Junkies junky needs to expand


Hey there 'Goners

H, my name is Andrew and I'm a Junkies-aholic. I need a little support from the group if you could be so kind. As a confirmed though never-to-recover Cowboy Junkies fan, I too often find the CJ's playing. My GF is gonna hijack my CD's and my iPod soon and do a little shuffling of her own. Without the thread going too far off course or getting too far from my professed comfort zone, any suggestions on expanding my musical horizons?

Thanks much!

thanks Dekay but I find Trainfare Home to be very upbeat not slow

thanks anyway...
It is hard to match the cowboy Junkies laid back sound which I like very much too. I have looked for quite some time and never really found anything.

Who can match Margo Timmens?

not really similar but nice are:

His Name is Alive - Last Night is my favorite of theirs

Ida - Will You Find Me? very good and hope you like it

fwiw, from the selections above Cat Power may match the mood of CJ the best...

good luck
What strikes me is that most of the music above is faster paced than I was expecting. But then I am mostly thinking of the Trinity Sessions when I think Cowboy Junkies.

Can anyone recommend some really slow music in the same vein?

I will go to Pandora to look - a cool site and thanks for that.

And cudos to Awightman1 for making it about music!
thanks Lokie I have owned Ingenue since it came out and I just bought my first Bill Frisell (Have a little faith) the other day! I am listening to Good Dog Happy Man right now and it is mellow.

btw sorry to hi jack your thread Awightman1
