Thanks Carl
Reverend, I have listened to Uncle Tupelo, but I need to listen to more of their albums. It seems Jay Farrar is on a small tour
with a new band supporting their new Woody Guthrie tribute album.

Two of my very favorite albums are the Billy Bragg and Wilco tribute albums to Woody Guthrie called   Mermaid Ave.  Volume I and II.  Both these albums are fantastic!!!!!  Billy Bragg and Wico came together to form a band to write the music for found Woody Guthrie lyrics. The music and lyrics just come together to form 2 masterful albums!!!
I will be picking up this new tribute album.

Yup, the mermaid ave. albums are good.  My favorite album is Being There which I have on double vinyl.  I think i've seen all those bands/guys in different variations live throughout the years.

Thanks Bunni !!

Is there a specific area on here dedicated to discussing new bands, music , concerts etc...  ?

The new Jay Farrar tribute band to Woody Guthrie called the  New Multitudes is available on Spotify.   
I only listened to two songs so far. It sounds good though.
Thanks,
Todd
