I love the music posts, WD!

Wondering if you've ever encountered Mark Lanegan. He's associated with heavier music but the guy could sing anything with perfect pitch and soul. My favorite stuff is his stripped down performances (he does wade into electronic music in his later albums which I assume isnt your thing so watch out for that).

This recording at the Ding Dong Lounge has too many ads but nevertheless I keep going back to it because it's that good:

Thanks for the feedback and music recommendation! I had not heard him. Guess I know what I’m listening to this afternoon!
