Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska
That is one of his greatest. I don't find it easy to listen to, but it's brilliant.
+1. My favourite Springsteen album, just ahead of Tunnel of Love, but right now I'm listening to Devils and Dust.
Have either of you read Born to Run. Pretty good book.

Samantha Fish - a bunch of YouTube live performances.
I just discovered her because of a video someone shared on Facebook. If you like blues rockers, she's worth checking out.
She's pretty solid, and tours alot- catch her live. Good show.
Bon Iver- 22, a Million- playing with musical textures and soundscapes. It has grown on me. So much so that I just bought a ticket to see them Friday night.
Bon Iver at AIR Studios (4AD/Jagjaguwar Session)
So so good.

How would you compare to Bonni Raitt or
Susan Tedeschi?

Much better looking!
I've seen a bunch of her videos as well. The two times she has played near me haven't worked out to attend. A fairly "modern" style of blues, I would say. A little more fiery and energetic than the two you mentioned. And Fish throws in some interesting covers, such as Black Sabbath's War Pigs. I will say I've noticed the occasional flubbed note on her solos.

How is it? I'm intrigued and at this point they're better off doing an album like that. I'd prefer they just stop though. Pleeease.

Listened to it on Apple Music the day it was released. It's OK. I think they recorded it in a single day (or two) and much, if not all, of it was live off the floor in the studio. It shows. It's sloppy in places, but not in an "authentic, rootsy sloppy" way. Just a "sloppy sloppy" way.
Some tracks are more successful than others. Some are very good; some made me cringe in places.
agreed. I actually would not have considered listening had it not been for a buddy praising the album.
Praising is definitely generous but it's actually not bad in a blues, grassy roots kinda way yet unmistakably stones.
it does make you cringe in places. I thought it was cold in my office but it's the music.

Mick and Keith were interviewed on CBS Sunday Morning last weekend and said they were mostly screwing around in the studio and ended up with a couple of tracks they liked, then a couple more etc. Also that Mick didn't want to release them but the other guys prevailed upon him to do so. Not sure I buy that but it makes a nice story......

I keep listening to this, wanting to like it, but cant get over bon iver through autotune. Not sure i've even made it all the way through the full album yet.

I have a streaming service (why someone who likes music doesn't is beyond me)...listened to it twice...probably won't again. I'll take Albert King anyday...or a dozen others.
As for the Stones, they were entertaining but not great at Desert Trip...but haven't released anything worth listening repeatedly since Tattoo You.

+1. I use pandora. I've got over 150 lps, over 300 cds and maybe 1000 songs on digits, but I don't buy much anymore. One of the main things I like, I can create a station with one artist and get turned on to so much new stuff I wouldn't have listened to. I've been using to stuff on YouTube a lot these days too, if there is something specific I want to listen to.

...maybe because streaming music services have been screwing artists over for royalties? And continue to do so?

FIFY. The only really good song on Tattoo You is Waiting on a Friend and it came from the Exile on Main Street bin.

Wow. I was going to post this exact sentiment this morning, but got distracted.
Great minds think alike? Or fools seldom differ? 
Last Bandoleros
Handel's Messiah (the Thomas Beachem version which is probably my favorite - everything seems just a little over the top)

Kinda with you guys on that one and even Some Girls is a bit suspect. It was the transition to a more pop sound that began there. With that said there are usually 1 to 3 tracks on each of the later albums Ive enjoyed.
I thought "Some Girls" was a return to form after both "It's Only Rock & Roll" and the especially lame "Black & Blue".
I love Black and Blue
Really Like Some Girls also but just wasn't as bluesy as they used to be.
Miss You was a disco tune.
Exile is my favorite

What Sunny said. Lots to like on "Some Girls".

Hey, I liked both of those albums even though they are uneven. Time Waits for No One has some of Mick Taylor's best guitar work imho. The second side is weak though except for Short and Curlies.
Black and Blue...Memory Motel, Hand of Fate, Fool to Cry, Hot Stuff.
You want lame...Goat's Head Soup is pretty lame. It was the beginning of the end.
Some Girls. Yes, Miss You is disco and I hated it at first, but came around on it. Good example of them soaking up other musical styles of the day. Far Away Eyes is my hands down favourite from that album, but several other good ones.
Alejandro Escoveda - Thirteen Years
Bach Christmas Oratorio
