There is one thing people who know me know to never question, and that's my knowledge of the Ryan Adams discography :)

What do you think of the new cd Tom? Alot of people says he puts out too much, and these are the same people buying old bootlegs of stuff other bands never released.

He can't put out enough for me. The new album is good, better than his last few official releases, but doesn't touch his earlier stuff. That being said the two demo versions of songs I've heard from the album, recorded in NYC a year earlier, sound better to my ears. It's been a common theme the last few years for me, the songs are better when he plays all the instruments and does all the arrangements then when he makes an album. The HOPE demos are amazing, which are like 50 songs, many of which ended up on Easy Tiger and Cardinology.
Stuart Pace

where can I find the Hope demos?
Tom Troncone
10:38 am on Monday, October 31, 2011
Not sure if you can. They were never compiled as such. Over a couple of years Ryan put various demos or clips on youtube, or he sent out one-off downloads. Fans sort of compiled the stuff themselves, however they see fit... You can search ryanadamsarchive.com for a tracklist... A few are on youtube, like this song from Cardinology http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvDCcUiN2KM
