Those two Michael Stewart albums certainly have a western flavor to them. By the way, if you ever hear anyone say that music is a universal language be aware you're talking to a diplomat. It's not and never has been.

I visited Manhattan back in march for the first time, and absolutely loved it. It makes hearing certain songs more fun cause now i know what they are talking about a little more. Living in Kansas City I don't hear a lot of songs referring to this town--a couple by Melissa Ethridge---so it's fun to hear references to NYC in songs now. It is a vastly different town from mine, maybe from any other, I think mostly because most poepole take public transportation and it gets poeple out into the world more. Most of us are so tied to our cars that we can go places and never interact with anyone else. I loved the idea of walking and taking hte subway, buses etc, and met lots of nice people that way---and did not meet one rude or mean person the whole time. deb
