Strangely enough, one of the best shows I ever saw was Pearl Jam at Satyricon on Portland.

 

Pearl Jam plays in a little hole in the wall tavern out side of Jtree every couple years... they come in to town to trip, and take spiretual journies with a med man that live out in the desert down there...

why is it awfully sad? the songs are brilliantly song by the american legend... I realize he's on his way out but, whatever the music will always live on.... bigdrink.gif

and thank you for the name of the album. grin.gif

In my opinion some poor choices of songs were

made on that album, or in some cases just poor instrumentation

and production choices. About half the songs are not well

rendered and make Mr. Cash sound old and undignified. The back

up music is pedantic and soul-less and distracts from his

voice which is still quite moving and powerful when given the

chance. "Hurt" is quite well done although the clanging piano

is a bit overbearing. "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face"

is very nice and touching. "Sam Hall" is fun. But Fiona Apple

rots thumbs_down.gif and does the world really need another cover

of "Desperado"? hellno3d.gif

 

or something bigdrink.gif

And he is old and near death.... He did win some award recently on CMT (ithink thats the xtry music channel)....his wife accepted it for him; if that says anything about his condition.....Please everyone have a bigdrink.gif for Johnny Cash. He rocks the world over.

I could have done without ever hearing Desperado again. There are a few other week moments on the disc, but over all i liked it alot. My son even digs it , for the most part, particularly Hurt ,Personal Jesus, and I hang My Head[ not sue if that's the title].

 

Ever hear him do Nick Caves ,Mercy Seat? Chilling!!

Ahh, you lucked out and got a good one. When she played in Olympia, I don't think she finished a single song, just sort of sputtered out in mid-verse, got up, wandered around the stage a bit, sat down and started another one, until she finally wandered all the way off stage.
