This guy?

Today I was blessed to spend most of the day with one or the other of what I think are two of the most beautiful songs stuck in my head. It's tough to have a bad day when that happens.

First up was Xavier Rudd. Singer, songwriter, surfer dude, dijeridoo, stompbox, and guitar player, percussionist, and one-man-band - at least he was then I believe he plays better with others these days. I first encountered him at the Winnipeg Folk Festival back in around 2004. Absolutely phenomenal performer.



And then around lunchtime I was visited by the ghost of Woody, channeled through Wilco, singing what I think may be *the* most beautiful song ever written.



Incidentally, there's another great solo version of this done by Jeff Tweedy at one of the FarmAid shows. That, too, is brilliant.

Have a great day everyone!
