A while back, I got a lot of peoples help to create lists of train songs that I posted in this blog. That was a fun project, and I’ve been eager to start another. I subsequently indicated that my next list would be Protest Songs and Corporate Greed. It seemed relevant given the crisis in the Gulf of Mexico, the banking crisis, and so many other current issues. I haven’t gotten far on that, but am still working on it. It’s just that it’s such a heavy topic.

So I’m going to lighten it up a bit and start another project at the same time, this one on one one of my favorite things: Whiskey. Just to keep it interesting, lets not limit ourselves to whiskey, but also moonshine or, the name I like, “White Lightening.”

This will be a specific list. I’m not looking for songs about alcohol or drinking in general, or about any other kinds of liquor. Here are to of my favorites. One is an old classic, but a fairly recent version. The first is sung by Allison Moorer, who I could say a lot about, but that voice speaks for itself. The second is by Cory Branan, a new favorite artist whose voice I like, and who writes very funny lyrics. I find that appealing.

I intensely dislike slide show music videos like the kind you find on YouTube, but this was the only recording I could find to include in this entry. So here it is. I think here version is amazing, full of pathos, longing and acceptance. If god likes jug whiskey, she sings, then paradise awaits. It not, well, who knows. Amazing!

Cory’s performance of this has gotten more feverish and exciting of late, as he stomps his books along with the guitar riffs between verses. I had a hard time choosing between this and another performance at this link.
It’s quite another to be kind and considerate to check these guys out viagra ordination other people. The best price of levitra way is to identify, treat and prevent the underlying condition. You might not have realized though, that male physical health is a very necessary part shop here cheap no prescription cialis of a man and his partner and enriches their overall relationship. Many people are viagra discount online not aware of remedies as they are aware of over-the-counter drugs.
In the end I chose this because i like the interaction with the harmonica. But if you want to check out both, there’s the link.

What are your favorites?
Please note, I’m not collecting based on quality, so send one’s you don’t like as well. All genres and styles are welcome. Post them as replies here or use any of the means of contact in this site. I’m eager to hear your suggestions!!

Finally, just as a reminder that I’m still gathering them, here is a musical protest against corporate greed par excellence, though definitely not a pacifist one. It’s from 1984, by Bruce Cockburn.
