Members houseofglass21 Posted January 2, 2012 Members Share Posted January 2, 2012 One album alt-country album that gets no love is "How Was Tomorrow" by the Cash Brother. Check out the song "Night Shift Guru" on spotify. Great fookin tune that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members erksin Posted January 2, 2012 Members Share Posted January 2, 2012 Neko is amazing - such an incredible musician.A buddy of mine is her tech and got us backstage last summer in PDX. Turns out she and CB Castillo went to the same HS in Tacoma so they gabbed about that while Waldo and me drank Neko's beer and hung out with her guitarist Paul Rigby who is a monster player BTW. I first heard her live album 'The Tigers Have Spoken' with The Sadies as her backing band and immediately fell in love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to hear an album with Neko and Elvis - their styles would blend amazingly well I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checking it our right now. Very cool! When I saw him with the Imposters, he was rockin a V-front Super/Dual-Professional. The casual observer would never guess he was such a guitar geek.
