Listening to lately…
A friend asked me what I’ve been listening to lately so I put this list together for him. Some of these are free downloads from Amazon… the rest are links to where you can listen to a sample or a YouTube video. I listen to a lot of different styles of music (translation: my wife often rolls her eyes and sighs when I say, “Hey, listen to this!“) but right now I’m going through an pop/acoustic/country phase. Discovered anything worth listening to lately?
Update: Thanks to Angélica, click here for the Favtape.com version of the list below. Click the song titles to listen. It’s missing Devil Don’t Remember My Name and Savannah Drive because it couldn’t find them. :( They’re both worth listening to so I left the links below.

You may find interesting favtape.com. They have quite a nice array of music and you can create playlists there with virtually no effort. I’m always on the lookout for new music, so will check your recommendations now! Cheers.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll check it out. (There goes my afternoon.)
Country, but not your average country: Corb Lund (http://www.corblund.com/ ).
Nice eclectic list. Not sure if you noticed, but Pumpkins and Paisley by the Spinto Band was a free MP3 Download of the day on Spinner.com. I don’t have the link readily accessible, but I’m sure it’s an easy find…
It’s free right now at Amazon too.
