"Rome" by Danger Mouse and friends ( Jack White , Nora Jones ) has been a pretty enjoyable listen.... Also, the two Mccartney re-releases have been terrific Sandy Denny's "Northstar" re-release has also been on the CD player a lot.

Great guitart player ! Before his solo career, was a member of ther Beach Boys for awhile ( circa 1965 ), also played on most Beach Boys tracks up to and including Pet Sounds, also played on many Monkees sessions, and was a member of Phil Spectors Wrecking Crew--so he's played on more hits and great albums than you can imagine ! Of course he had that fantastic stretch of hits in the mid to

Ok all this talk about Mccartney II makes me have to go back and re-experience it again. I always loved Mccartney I , but never could connect with "II" -- but since so many of you recommend it, I will go back today and re-listen. I'm really glad he's re-releasing all this stuff.

Loving Mccartney--one of my all-time favorite albums. Not so much Mac II -- cant put my finger on it, but was never a big fan of that one-- maybe too much synth... But Mccartney I big thumbs up !

Personally I would love to see the Stones and Jack White get together-- I think the results would be tremendous-- Jack White's production work with artists like Loretta Lynn and Wanda Jackson were great, and he's even releasing a live album by Jerry Lee Lewis-- he has a real sense of history and respects it. You know he would do an outstanding job with the Stones. He loves them. The

Nope. The Beatles and the Stones were the top -- We Yanks did have artists that could at times rival them - The Beach Boys, The Byrds, but they could not sustain it over the years. We also had a great 60's band that cranked out killer hits called Paul Revere and the Raiders... And we have Dylan.... and Springsteen...... But you guys over in the UK win the prize hands down...

If I remember correctly, back in 1967-1968 the Stones and Beatles were talking about going into a record label together--a record label and a recording studio---- when that fell apart the Beatles launched Apple, and the Stones were going to do Mother Earth....

Hi all-- I host a weekly radio show here in Maine called "Mystery Train" and this week I am dedicating the entire three hour show to the Stones.
