I hadn't watched SNL in years, but I thought, "Cowboy Junkies? With a name like that, I have to check this out." I was expecting some dumbass punk rock group that couldn't make music to save their lives, but what I got when they came out was Margot Timmons coming out on stage looking all fine with her high hair and singing 'Sweet Jane' in one hell of a seductive tone. I can't find that clip anywhere, but I'll link to a video of that song from about that same time down below the track list so you can see what I mean.
Anyways, the second song they did that night, 'Misguided Angel', was just as good as the first, so I found myself down that the record store the next morning buying the cassette tape.
I bought the next two albums and while they weren't bad, this one was unarguably the best for just some nice mellow music. Be sure to check out '200 Miles' too - great music for those late night drives down a lonesome road.
