I really enjoyed the Wood Brothers set when they opened for TTB this summer; I have since gotten their 2 live CDs, which I dig. (makes me think a bit in terms of ABB's 1st and 2nd set, not in sound but just in concept).

What would be the next album of theirs to grab?

I'm no Wood Brothers expert, but I quite like Loaded. It's got a real Big Pink quality to it.

I'm partial to their 1st record, Ways Not to Lose, but I love all of their stuff. Loaded, Smoke Ring Halo, Muse, all have very sold songs. Great band!

I've heard good things about this band.

Anyone have a favorite Youtube clip they'd recommend for someone curious to get into them?

Here is probably my favorite song of theirs.

As far as albums go, I would suggest "Live At The Barn" recorded at Levon's barn "The Muse" and "Loaded".

Get them all! You can't go wrong.

Shoofly Pie is one of their songs I can really get into... 😛
