The Shelby Lynn disc is good, the modern recording does sound better than Dusty's original; I missed her when she came to town, but read some really great reviews on her shows. There's a good live session of Langhorne Slim at hearya.com. It's my 2nd favorite after the one by Justin Townes Earle. Which reminds me, I missed Steve Earle this year. I'll try not to make that mistake next time. Ironically, Okkervil River is originally from NH. Check out the wikipedia entry... I'd add The Hold Steady and Drive-By Trucker albums to the list. Both put on good shows this year. I also liked the new Lucinda (saw her a couple of times this year).
