A sample of some obscure – and maybe not obscure – tunes from my strange and off-the-wall collection.

Today’s selection: Cowboy Junkies – “Where Are You Tonight?” 1990

Cowboy Junkies is a Canadian band formed in 1985. Still together with the same line-up. A 4-man band, three of the members are siblings. A 4th family member left the band early on. The 5th (now 4th) member of the band was a childhood friend from kindergarten. Their first album was released in 1986 but their 1989 release of The Trinity Session had a cover of Lou Reed’s Sweet Jane which peaked at #5 in the US. To date, they’ve released 18 albums.

This cut comes from their 3rd album, The Caution Horses.
