Episode #6 of the LMP features Jason Mraz and company from their 2006 fall tour. If you've never heard Mr. A-Z live you will be in for a pleasant treat. This show, at least, is a more stripped down version of his songs than you might hear on the radio (and it works very well). Jason's voice really shines when you pair it up with some acoustic guitars and a conga drum. This concert also features the talents of another singer/songwriter, Raul Midon, whose voice really matches up well with Jason's.  If you want to hear a good example of this check out Midon's song Keep on Hoping which can be downloaded on Itunes here .

Jason and his band also know how to have a good time on stage and the crowd that night was more than willing to follow along. At one point in the concert they stop the music to play something called the Song Game. In the Song Game, Jason asks the audience to come up with several phrases and he then uses those to spontaneously create a song. I didn't include this in the podcast because it would take up too much time but it is definitely worth downloading the full show to listen to it.

I'll stop my rambling about this one and let you form your own opinion about it. Hope you enjoy!

I intentionally left off one of the concerts from Bonnaroo on my last post since I absolutely had to feature it in my next podcast episode. Every year at Bonnnaroo there has been a Superjam where artists from different bands and styles of music come together. It really symbolizes the diverse array of styles on display at Bonnaroo and always ends up being an awesome show. It goes to show you that truly great musicians can adapt to play with just about anyone and produce great sounding music.

My mouth salivated when I saw the lineup for this year's Superjam: on lead guitar and vocals Ben Harper, on drums ?uestlove of the Roots, and on bass the legendary John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin. This ensemble truly lived up to the name of Superjam. The week after Bonnaroo I scoured the net and almost had given up hope on finding this one. Last week, however, I found a link on bt.etree.org to download my holy grail of tapings. After listening to it several times since then I can assure you that it definitely lived up to my hype and was worth the effort.

As you might expect they cover a lot of Zeppelin and throw in quite a few extended jams. This concert is in an early lead for taping of the year for me, so give it a listen and see if you agree.

Song listing
1) Good Times Bad Times
2) Ramble On
3) Superstitious
4) Them Changes
5) It's Your Thing

The Bonnaroo Music and Arts festival held annually in Manchester, TN is easily the most recorded music festival on the planet. Not only does this festival show case some of the best music around, but most of the bands are kind enough to allow fans to record their performances.

This year was definitely no exception featuring many of the usual suspects such as Ben Harper and the Innocent Criminals, Gov't Mule, and Widespread Panic as well as some new comers to the festival like the Police, Wolfmother, and the White Stripes. It is pretty cool to see how varied the line-up is each year and great to see the number of fans that continue to make the trip. There are a lot more shows out there from Bonnaroo 2007 so if you want to find more check out bt.etree.org and archive.org. UPDATE: A nearly complete list of all shows can be found here.

The Barenaked Ladies are another great live band and easily my favorite Canadian band (sorry Rush). I started listening to them probably about 10 years ago so I wasn't around for the early years. The word on the street, however, is that they built their fan base through lots of touring and word of mouth. This is usually a good sign that they are a great live band and definitely is true for BNL. For me the combination that really works for them is their ability to have fun on stage and their great musical talent. It's almost impossible not to have a good time listening to them play.

Last fall they came out with a new CD titled "Barenaked Ladies Are Me" and this concert was taped during a promotional tour for that CD. As you might expect a good majority of the songs that they play are from this CD and fortunately the new songs are really good. Also for those of you opposed to change they throw in a few of the hits as well.

Song Listing
1) Bull in a China Shop
2) Sound of Your Voice
3) Some Fantastic
4) Easy
5) Home
6) Wind It Up
7) Old Apartment
