but useful none the less. If you are a guitar player and want a little insight, John Mayer offered this video. He goes pretty fast, but if you listen, it makes sense.

New Amos Lee Album

July 9, 2008

I bought the new Amos Lee album, Last Days at the Lodge, a few weeks ago when it came out. I just got around to listening to it, and I love it. Anything this guy does really is pretty amazing. I’ve been listening to him for a couple of years now. If you haven’t heard of him, below is one of my favorite Amos Lee songs called “Arms of a Woman”. If you think it sounds like Norah Jones, it is because he was one of the first signed to her record label. So there you go. Buy his albums and support him. Do it now.
