What am I missing? Americana?


I have really been enjoying certain types of recordings, Ryan Adams "Heart Breaker and Bright Eyes "I'm wide awake it's morning", for example.

Can you guys help recommend similar type recordings?

I recommend The Volebeats, and I must commend this thread for mentioning the Vulgar Boatmen AND the Silos, and coincidentally containing posts by one "waltersalas".

Yes, it is a coincidence. I'm just a big fan, not the singer/songwriting genuis Walter Salas-Humara.

Can't recommend those Silos albums strongly enough, especially "Cuba," "Heater," and the eponymous album.
I dunno... maybe a Ventures greatest hits disc, Danny Gatton Cruising Deuces, Allman Brothers Live at Fillmore East, Smithereens Especially For You. The Crime Jazz compilations provide a good cross section of memorable soundtrack pieces from American TV and films.
