The polarizing alt-country pretty boy Ryan Adams is set to release his 9th album Easy Tiger on June 26th via Lost Highway Records. The Cardinals (again) joined him as a backing band which is good since I liked Jacksonville City Nights more than virtually all of his post-Heartbreaker output. Easy Tiger (however) sounds like it could be a return to form.
MP3 | Ryan Adams - Two Easy Tiger
MP3 | Ryan Adams - Everybody Knows Easy Tiger
Even though what I've heard of Easy Tiger sounds promising, my favorite Ryan Adams stuff is still probably Whiskeytown. Way back in 1996 before he went solo, Ryan Adams and drummer Skillet Gilmore (both of Whiskeytown at that point) formed the short-lived indie alt-country band Freightwhaler and (to the best of my knowledge) the songs below (known as The Freightwhaler Sessions) are all that was documented.
MP3 | Freightwhaler - At The Drive-In The Freightwhaler Sessions
MP3 | Freightwhaler - Bar Lights The Freightwhaler Sessions
MP3 | Freightwhaler - The Ghosts Are Out Tonight The Freightwhaler Sessions
MP3 | Freightwhaler - Sometimes That's Hard To Do The Freightwhaler Sessions
MP3 | Freightwhaler - Picture Of Jesus On The Dashboard The Freightwhaler Sessions
Find more MP3's at The Hype Machine or buy from Amazon

LOVE this blog. I've been browsing a few music blogs here and there but this one is great. Keep up the good work.
Your post and the new Ryan adams tracks inspired me to post something (actually only the 2nd post on my new blog.) http://thegospelaccordeontomikey.wordpress.com/2007/05/28/ryan-adams/
I don't know how you feel about Blog-pimping so feel free to delete this if it offends :-)
link didn't work so if anyones interested click on my name in this 2nd comment.
And just to make this comment useful, I read in the Wiki entry to easy tiger says that the female vocalist in two is none other than Sheryl Crow. Their voices are a oerfect fit IMHO though maybe not as special as with Emmy in Sweet Carolina
thanks for posting, these songs are so rare!
but it seems that the files are missing, escept "at the drive in". or is it just me?
All the broken links should now be fixed. My bad!
now it works! thanks, eric! :)
