List seven songs you are into right now. No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they’re not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now.

Let me fire up ITunes and see what I’ve been playing the most lately:

  1. Ain’t No Sunshine — Bill Withers
  2. Hallelujah — both the Jeff Buckley and the Brandie Carlile versions
  3. Cancion Del Mariachi — Los Lobos (from the Desperado soundtrack)
  4. Someday Baby — Boy Dylan
  5. The Hustle — G. Love and Special Sauce
  6. What I Really Mean — Robert Earle Keen
  7. Into the Mystic — Van Morrison

I usually just keep my music collection on shuffle, but I’m wearing out the new Bob Dylan album, Modern Times and American V: A Hundred Highways by Johnny Cash.

Modern Times has a very strong Texas blues sound to it…I’m certain that’s the influence of legendary blues guitarist Denny Freeman from Austin, who was in Dylan’s band for this recording (Denny was a member of the Cobras with Stevie Ray Vaughan back in the day).

Got something you want to say?
