Steve Earle Copperhead Road " "Here's a guy as far away from the prodigal son as you can imagine."

Jerry Lee Lewis End of the Road "He sings this song, he pounds the piano. He says he wrote it and that's good enough for me."

Van Morrison and The Chieftains Raglan Road "A traditional song, but in the hands of someone like Van Morrison you can see how hard it is to separate the performer from the performance. It's like a great jazz musician bringing a new interpretation to a song you've heard dozens of times."

Mississippi John Hurt Candy Man "The sweet, gentle sounds of Mississippi John Hurt. You can hear elements of the songster tradition, the music that came before the blues, carrying elements of minstrel songs and other native American forms."

Bob Marley and the Wailers Sugar Sugar "In a crypt near his birthplace, buried along with him, were his Gibson Les Paul guitar, a ring he wore every day that was given to him by Prince Asfaw Wossen of Ethiopia, a marijuana bud, a soccer ball, and a bible. His needs were simple."

Clarence Palmer and The Jive Bombers Bad Boy

Betty Carter 'Round Midnight "...known as Betty Bebop, but she hated that name. She thought that bebop was limited and she wanted to do more, and she did."

Rolling Stones Let It Bleed
