Quote:
On this edition of All Songs Considered, Lowe joins host Bob Boilen to talk about The Old Magic and his long career making razor-sharp pop music. Lowe also shares some of the artists and songs he's loved over the years, from the country-boogie singer Tennessee Ernie Ford to a Conway Twitty-Loretta Lynn duet, as well as a rarely heard R&B tune from Jewel and the Rubies.

:cheers:

shit, for a second I thought he played one of my songs.

I'm seeing him open for Wilco this month, and I'm a hair more excited to see him.

And, today he is being interviewed by perhaps the all-time greatest pure interview: Terry Gross, on Fresh Air.

(audio won't be up until around 5:00 or so tonight, Eastern.)

Pun intended?

That's a helluva a head of hair on Nick.

I saw this yesterday but haven't listened yet. Thanks for the link, Togg.
