Saturday music: If you don't love country, you hate 'mer'ca

A twofer today.  First up, Caroline Rose, "Time Spent, Money Grow!" from I Will Not Be Afraid.  Then, something that is more on the border of country, blues and rock: JJ Cale, "Lies."  This is actually the first cut from JJ's second album, Really, but the one I found on youtube was from a compilation.  Whatever.  Anyway, this one's for you, Mikey!  Side note:  if JJ sounds familiar, that is because his style was ripped off by a bunch of famous Brits in the '70s, like Clapton and Knopfler.  I wonder what Ralph Waldo Emerson would have said about this kind of thing...

(The American Scholar, anyone?  No?  Just me?... Never mind.)
