Lion Man has been played to death on the radio over here... It's the best song on the album if you ask me
I'm not that crazy about the other ones.. But maybe I should listen one more time!
I was just telling my other half about this band at the weekend, having heard them on the radio. Think this is going to be one of my next music purchases
My favourite has shifted a lot over time, I've warmed to every song on the album at one point. But after hundreds of listens, my current favourite is Dustbowl Dance. Thistle & Weeds held the no.1 spot for the majority of my listening, but as of recently I'm ranking it second.
I think "Dustbowl Dance" would either be number two or three for me right now. Really though I enjoy the entire album, THOUGH I must say that I actually prefer the original version of "Winter Winds" known as "But My Heart Told My Head" as opposed to the rerecording that appeared on "Sigh No More"....not to say I don't like that version also, just not quite as much.
You know what, I do too! I always felt the saxophone was way overpowered in Winter Winds. In the original, the foot drum, banjo, accordion and the big vocal harmony near the end are much more audible, and much better sounding IMO.
