How do you feel about Jackson Browne and Dan Fogelberg? I was driving around last night, windows down here in Cleveland in March, 60 degrees at 10 o clock at night (rare as hell!) and listening to those two guys. It doesn't get much better than them. I like Fogelberg more than Browne, but damn are they both good lyricists.
Love Fogelberg. Run for the Roses(Kentucky Derby) and Leader of the Band(his father) are tremendous songs.
Love Browne too, although as a person his character is a bit suspect after he pounded on his old lady awhile back.
If you put Springsteen, Dylan, Browne, Fogelberg and Lennon in a pot and stirred it...man. Of those five guys, only Dylan's voice is shitty. What did Bruce say about Dylan though? "Elvis freed your body, and Bob frees your mind."
Now put Cain in there, and tell me which one doesn't belong there.
