    My wife and friend say that the thing about Cowboy Junkies that is beautiful is that they don't even sound like they're trying. Watching this little concert, you can see how carefully she frames it, and then lets it drip, organically, from her mouth, as her bandmates let it spring from their fingertips.
    They are where they should be, doing what they should be doing, for the right reasons, and in the right way. How many of us can say that? Bless 'em.

    you don't have to wail.. You don't have to reach a certain register to have a BEAUTIFUL soothing voice. This I find here. Other artist may have more albums, may have more fans, may have more "awards" I dj as a hobby. I hear a lot of voices. This right here soothes my soul.

      Great album, but for me, it's "Black Eyed Man", a few years later , a Townes song, a duet with Prine ( if memory serves ), and especially "Southern Rain" , an underrated Canadian classic.

    Subjectively, some rare voices stand out as personifications of mercy, kindness; as shoulders to cry on, as patron saints of the lonely. To me, Carla Torgerson (from The Walkabouts) is one such person and Margo Timmins is the other. Must note that they are also linked by their love of late great Townes Van Zandt, whose work contains the greatest joy and the greatest sorrow. --Waving from Istanbul.

      Randy Miller III .... September 11, 2001 was the date the twin towers in NYC and the Pentagon in Washington DC were attacked and thousands of people lost their lives ... I imagine despite being Canadian they did it out of respect for those that lost their lives that day ... many of us in Canada were traumatized by this event as well ... :(

    Id like to learn ore bout them. is this really a family band ? Is "Junkie" their last name ? If they're canadian what does "Cowboy" have to do with them ? I think a better name for their band would be "Hockey Puck Junkies" or "Moose Cowboys", "Maple Syrup Riders" ... "New Riders of the Tundra Ice".
