Song of the Day (8-5-05)

In case you didn't listen to the previous Song of the Day ("White Crosses" by Edwin McCain), I'm leaving the link in the sidebar.

Today's Song of the Day is by Jonny Lang, the most soulful skinny white boy I've ever heard. I saw this kid play (he's 22 or so now) when he opened for Aerosmith--he was 17! He mainly played blues back then, but recently he released his album Long Time Coming which is a lot more mainstream rock. He is an amazing guitarist and he has one of the most full and emotional voices in rock. This song, "The One I Got," is an obvious tribute to his wife of a few years. Enjoy!
