5.) Band of Horses - Cease to Begin
I was going to put an Avett Brothers album here, but I couldn't move this album out of the top 5. Band of Horses' first album is great for Fall too.Two to listen to: "No One's Gonna Love You" and "The General Specific"
4.) Neko Case and Her Boyfriends - Furnace Room Lullaby
It takes about 2 seconds for this album to get good...because that's how long it takes for Neko to start singing. Her voice is so good it's unfair.Two to listen to: "Set Out Running" and "Twist the Knife"
3.) Jeff Tweedy - Sunken Treasure: Live in the Pacific Northwest
This isn't actually an album, it's the soundtrack to the DVD of the same name. The DVD comes with a free download. I bought this on impulse Junior year of college and it is now perhaps my favorite Wilco related material. It's just outstanding from start to finish.Two to listen to: "Radio King" and "One by One"
2.) Neil Young - Harvest Moon
The song "Harvest Moon" is the greatest fall song of all time. It's also the first song I learned to play on the guitar. It's also one of my 10 favorite songs of all-time.Two to listen to: "From Hank to Hendrix" and "Harvest Moon"
1.) My Morning Jacket - Acoustic Citsuoca
While I love MMJ's more rockin' side, their softer/acoustic side has always been my favorite. Jim James' voice shines on this 5 song-EP, which was recorded on Halloween in 2004 (if that doesn't scream "FALL" nothing does.)Two to listen to: "The Bear" and "Golden"
There you have it my 5 favorite albums to listen to in the Fall. Now, go grab a Pumpkin beer, bourbon or Pumpkin spice latte (those things are amazing) and put on one of these albums as you take in the greatness of Autumn.
Have a good one.
Song of the Day: Neil Young - Harvest Moon
GRE Word: Specious - Seeming true, but actually being false; misleadingly attractive.
