It's a bonus track on some copies of Jacksonville City Nights...I think it's the Japanese version.

For you traveling type, I created this Google Map of the tour.
 
Heads-up for anyone interested...iTunes has the Follow the Lights music video featuring the ABC show October Road up for free download. Ryan doesn't show up much in it, but he is in there for a few shots at least.
 
I would have to say I am now officially a semi-crazy RA fan...

I have all the albums now except Demolition and I am amazed how I can listen to them over and over again and not get bored...

My ranking so far:

1 - Cold Roses
2 - Love Is Hell
3 - Jacksonville City Nights
4 - Easy Tiger
5 - Heartbreaker
6 - Gold
7 - 29
8 - Rock N Roll
 
Demolotion is my least favorite, it has a few good songs in it..hmm... Dear Chicago, You Will Always Be The Same ... but you might as well get it, cause at least it will feel complete. Also you should look around the internets for his brilliant, unreleased masterpiece Suicide Handbook if you don't already have it.

as hard as it is rank Ryan's work (cause most of it is just too brilliant), I will give it a shot

Cold Roses
29
Love is Hell
Jackosnville
Heartbreaker
Easy Tiger
Gold
Rock N Roll
Demolition
 
I'll bite.

1. Cold Roses
2. Heartbreaker
3. Gold
4. Love is Hell
5. 29
6. Jacksonville City Nights
7. Demolition
8. Easy Tiger
9. Rock N Roll
 
This is hard...and if you asked me to do this again in the near future, it might change.

1. Cold Roses
2. Gold
3. Love Is Hell
4. Jacksonville City Nights
5. Heartbreaker
6. 29
7. Demolition
8. Easy Tiger
9. Rock N Roll
 
I'm glad to see my opinion of Rock N Roll is shared, I'm surprised you guys don't like Easy Tiger more although I am guessing it's more a testament to the quality of his work overall...

Any recommendations for live shows/bootlegs?
 
I hate ranking Easy Tiger so low, especially with so many people considering it to have been disappointing. But, like you said, he just has so much amazing stuff. I wish Easy Tiger could be higher on my list even if just because of "The Sun Also Sets". That's one of my favorites of his.
 
Ticketmaster is showing a second LA date:

Thu, 01/31/08

07:00 PM Royce Hall UCLA
Los Angeles, CA

on sale: Sat, 12/08/07 10:00 AM
 
This is tough...


1. Cold Roses
2. Love Is Hell
3. Heartbreaker
4. Jacksonville City Nights
5. Gold
6. 29
7. Demolition
8. Easy Tiger
9. Rock N Roll


I hate putting Easy Tiger and RnR so low but something had to fill those slots. I still like ET, and listen to RnR quite a bit, although not as much as when I first got it. But 'So Alive' I still probably listen to once a day.
 
I love 29, it's just that as an album as a whole, it's not one I'd toss in the car and introduce Ryan to a friend.

It's a self indulgent album, which in Ryan's case actually works, but only for big fans.

But has Nightbirds and the Sadness:drool:
 
Hey, BC. I got it and it has been destroyed, so you can add it back.


Thanks again!
 
I'm still too much of a Ryan newbie to grasp the breadth and depth of the entire career, but this is definitely one of my serious new loves of 2007 (of which I have way too many).

When my Ryan hunger ran deep yesterday after writing my everybodyfields piece for the main page (Ryan fans should all check out this band, btw), I chose this Ryanlist to play on my 'puter to absorb while getting clean and ready for my sweetie to arrive:

Dear John
Games
Peaceful Valley
Easy Plateau
Magnolia Mountain
Cold Roses
Now That Youre Gone
Two
The Sun Also Sets
I Taught Myself How To Grow Old
 
I think i may be the only person
who just doesn't get/appreciate/like
the song "Two". It's so generic, there's no feeling in it, the lyrics fall flat and don't conjure up anything real or honest... like something Maroon 5 would write.

It's not quite that bad, but it's not great. Especially sandwiched between "Goodnight Rose" and "Everybody Knows."
