Black Star



one of my personal top shows at bonnaroo this year (hold steady & spoon hold the top slots) gillian welch really surprised and pleased us with a fantastic sounding set. i had a couple of spine-tinging moments, partially because i didn't know what to expect...first of all, i didn't realize she performed with david rawlings and then when she dazzled us with this radiohead cover that i've grown to love, it was a real treat. someone posted it, you just have to get past the poster's warbling. really, though, it pasted a huge smile on my face that first day.

Thanks for the post! Gillian Welch is amazing. I highly recommend her "Time (The Revelator)" album. Top 10!
