Review of Cowboy Junkies: In their own words


I am fan of the Cowboy Junkies, but not a well-informed one, just so you know.... Even if I didn't like them these pieces provide a lovely insight into their music, and the relationship between the family members which appears close, very close, and full of mutual respect; this latter fact makes me like them all the more. I am not sure I detected the difference between versions 1 and 2, but 3 is a minute shorter if time is limited. Whichever one you choose, choose one; each would sit perfectly in ATC or ME, and feature enough music excerpts to get a good feel for their style. As noted they are touring currently so an upcoming local appearance could provide a good hook.
