I can never decide on a favourite Emmylou album, it depends on my mood. Quarter Moon is the one I listen to over and over though, it's definately gotten me through some difficult times. I love 'All I Intended to Be', her newest album, she wrote quite a few of the songs on there and they're just incredible, especially 'Take that Ride'.

Top 6 Tv Shows

1. The West Wing

Chili - thanks for bringing this thread back! There's room for 2 compulsive lsit-makers!

Bonnie RULES! I can't believe she wasn't on my list. It really should be a top 10 thread, not top 6... My favourite albums of hers are Takin' My Time, Sweet Forgiveness and Luck Of The Draw. She's just fantastic.

As for The West Wing - how can you describe it other than intelligent, funny and awesome?!

I expanded to 10...dropped Bonnie down a bit.

Yeah, I loved TWW...only downside was that Josh Lyman got on my nerves quite a bit. Have had a tough time seeing Bradley Whitford as any other character...even on that Studio One or whatever Sorkin's followup was...he still irked me in that. His new one with Colin Hanks (The Good Guys finally has me watching him again.
