Hi Martha Wainwright Review from the Guardian (UK). Quite a few Loudon references as to be expected. ...

Hey folks, Went to my first LW III show on Friday. Got to meet him, gave him some Peter Blegvad live shows (which he seemed to like), got my picture with him,...
Kind of a fun article. My favorite line: "If things carry on at this rate, they'll end up with their own section in HMV: Hip Hop/R&B/Metal/Punk/Emo/Music...
Good (and bad) news for the completists amongst you. What looks like full details of all of Loudo's sessions for John Peel are now on the BBC's archive website...

Just saw last night another incredible and incredibly intimiate Loudon Wainwright III show - this one at an unusual venue, a cajun restaurant in westchester...
Loudon brought lots of energy and enthusiasm to his show Thursday night. Several songs for the 1970s and some great new songs. Also, probably so songs with...

Last year I started writing about Loudon's creative legacy on a messageboard with a relatively small membership. I wrote lengthy pieces on each of Loudon's...
Martha was interviewed on Radio Scotland this morning, talking amongst other things about pants and how much she admires her parents' music. She also plays a...
I don't remember Martha's knees being mentioned on here before, so having noticed them I thought I'd bring them up - just like she did. Martha was on a BBC...

I didn't realize the album had a title or release date, so I did a quick google. In the November 27, 2007 Billboard...
Well, I suppose that it's about time I chipped in with a reference to the as yet unheard Recovery album. I once said that the continuation of live albums was...

Lwason, you'll receive no roasting from me! I'll buy Recovery because I'm a fan and I'm a collector and that's what fan(atic) collectors do but this sure isn't...
I have to say I disagree. In fact, since Last Man On earth, LW3 has written some truly fabulous songs - albeit not always presented on record in a way that...
I agree. "Half Fist" is one of his best songs, and is so powerful live, but the production on the album takes away from that raw emotion. On Tue, May 27, 2008...
I agree with this thread. I personally have always preferred Loudo's solo acoustic numbers to most of his produced songs. Some exceptions would be cuts from...

I couldn't agree more. Maybe it's because Loudon left the east coast, "where a man gleans the most." Larry (my first post here since 9/11/01) ... [Non-text...
I think that attempts to write Loudon off as "past his prime" or "on the downward slope" tend to come around every several years, particularly as he puts out...
Good thread here on the list, it has been a little while since we have had such a discussion. Loudon "past his prime"? I don't think so - he's still just as...

Good points, Lew, especially about new fans wanting the old songs. Although, aren't those early albums in print at this point? But on what basis are you...
It seems like the consensus might be that we'd love to hear a live album of all new songs, or at least a recording that is minimally produced. If he is going...
