    Good to see some love for the Jayhawks. I don't think they have a bad song.

    Hollywood Town Hall is one of my favorite records of all time.

    Hollywood Town Hall and Tomorrow the Green Grass are both great albums. They lost something when Mark walked away, although Sound of Lies was still pretty edgy. Glad to see Gary is touring with Mark again, although from the sound of things on the Jayhawks camp, they are on a definate hiatus.

    Depends on what type of music you gravitate towards. If you're not much of a country fan, don't start with Blue Earth. It has quite a bit of twang to it.

    If you want more of a pop feel, I'd start with Smile. You'll recognize "I'm Gonna Make You Love Me" from the radio.

    Personally, I don't think you can go wrong with any of them. I think I started with Rainy Day Music, then to Smile, Blue Earth, Tomorrow The Green Grass, then Hollywood Town Hall, and that worked great for me. No real reason for the order I went, other than that's the order they were available at the library so I could give them a listen.

    Great band.
