What is your favorite Greg Brown CD?

"Slant Mind Six"
Some incredible lines of word pictures.
To bad you don't have a TT, "Poets Game" is a great album that I think is only available on vinyl.

My favorite is a live CD called "In Harmony" that he did to benefit foster children. It has a few songs by Dave Carter/Tracy Grammar and Kate MacKenzie too. It isn't sold in stores, but is available at

FYI, he has a brand new live double CD culled from various performances over the years from the Kate Wolf Festival in Northern California. It's also to benefit children. Looks like it also may not be available at stores.

I haven't heard it, but expect that most of the songs include other artists, as I've been to most of the KW festivals and he generally has some backup performers at that festival. Often the incomparable Nina Gerber.

Hard to say . . . I really like "Dream Cafe," especially the title track, but "The Poet Game" is also a good one, as are most of his. "The Poet Game" on vinyl sounds TERRIFIC!

Pick up "If I Had Known-Essential Recordings,1980 - 1996" You'll get a great overview. Disc 2 is a DVD documentary which gives some insight as to what makes him such a great artist. Eventually get "Milk Of The Moon" but have some of the others mentioned above first.

The Poet Game is available on CD. I have a Red House CD 68 of it. I believe that everyone I know has liked " In the Dark with you". Any of his CDs is worthwhile. Two interesting CDs of covers by him are Greg Brown and Bill Morrissey "Friend of Mine" and "The Songs of Innocence and Experience." The later is Brown doing William Blake. "Further In" is one of my favorites. "Going Driftless" a tribute to Greg Brown by various female singers is also well done, my sister liked it so much I got her a copy.
