With a day off and nothing much to do I decided to just listen to some music and relax. So here are 12 albums that suit the mood.
1.Love-Forever Changes[1967] Still the best album from the early psychedelic period.
2.Eric Andersen-Ghosts upon the Road[1988] A album of lost lives and loves from one of the best Singer/Songwriters of my Generation.

3.Loretta Lynn-Van Lear Rose[2004] What a comeback! The perfect blend of country,folk and Rock ably assisted by Jack White
4.Nick Drake-Five Leaves Left[1969] Haunting vocals and sparse instrumentation make this a classic.
5.Richard and Linda Thompson-Shoot Out the Lights[1982] Listen to a marriage fall apart, both artistically and personally.
6.Lenny Gallant-The open Window[1994] East coast singer'/songwriter at his Canadian best.
7.Todd Snider-Songs for the Daily Planet[1994] The Who's My Generation has never sounded so good as on this album.
8.David Ackles-American Gothic[1972] Fighting for the American Dream[and not finding it] "The Montana Song" is a classic.
9.John Stewart-California Bloodlines[1969] The former member of The Kingston Trio makes the perfect country album for the new decade.
10.Laura Nyro-Eli and the 13th Confession[1968] Others may have had bigger hit's with her songs, but the original is always better.
11.John Gorka-Out of the Valley[1994] Alternative Country's leader, "Good Noise" is the best anti Republican song I have heard.
12.Gram Parsons-Return of the Grevious Angel[1974] The grandfather of Country Rock's Finest Moment. Ass kicking country and tender love songs. True American Cosmic Music.
