    I'll Take Care of You is an excellent album; full of more obscure covers. But don't let that fool you. It was the last one of his six solo albums that I bought; since it was all covers, it didn't entise me as much. HOWEVER, once I heard the album I was pretty amazed at his take on those covers. His vocals on songs like Consider Me, On Jesus' Program, and Shiloh Town are some of his best, IMO.
    Consider Me is one of my favourite Lanegan songs. And you can't call yourself a Lanegan fan until you've heard him sing Carry Home. :)

    I fell apart when I saw him do Carry Home on the Isobel tour. I can't wait for the new solo album...I mean...the other stuff is great an' all but it's just been too long

    I'm hoping to hear it at the stripped down Gutter Twins show in January. :)

    What are the chances Mark and Greg play some US dates? I know they've said there will be no more dates announced but one can dream right?? I would be willing to fly anywhere in the US for a show.

    My tickets arrived for the London show in January....this is gonna be good.

    I really hope they play some dates in the US, they do seem a bit neglectful of the US fans. I've managed 8 shows in the last 2 years alone, I must have done something pretty good in a past life!!!!!!

    i say start with bubblegum... his work with QOTSA is his dark side, gutter twins his folksy/dark side, soulsavers his gospel side, screaming trees his upbeat, straight rock side, and the rest of his solo stuff is pretty mellow acoustic stuff... bubblegum has a great balance and some nice cameos from friends

    everything the man touches is gold! a true artist!

    the order IMO is:
    -bubblegum
    -soulsavers
    -sweet oblivion
    -adorata


    I picked up Bubblegum and Soulsavers over the weekend. I also obtained a copy of Chinese Democracy. I was more emotionally moved/connected in the first minue of Soulsavers than I was on the entire new GNR. Mark is indeed the man.

    Anyone who isn't moved by Revival is dead inside, really.

    Agreed. It's funny how much I love gospel music when I couldn't be more anti-religious.

    Mark could do a rap album and I'll probably like it.

    Ya know I think Mark could pull it off. It doesn't matter what he does, everything he touches is timeless and classy.

    Totally agree. I'm not particularly religious myself but Lanegan can sing some gospel songs, no doubt. Revival, On Jesus' Program, Peace In The Valley (Screaming Trees); it's all golden.

    I would absolutely love to hear him sing Amazing Grace. I've always felt that to be a very powerful song; whether you're religious or not.

    some of the soulsavers stuff borders on some slower hip hop stuff... you might be right... he would at the very least do it with full sincerity and integrity

    Hold up!!! Screaming Trees covered Peace in the Valley???? How did miss that. I remember singing that song at church when I was little.
