2005 was quite as year for Ryan Adams. He released 3 albums, and played the Hurricane Katrina benefit, AND somehow found the time to hang out and play shows with Phil Lesh. Cold Roses was his first album of the year, and his first with The Cardinals. The album is typical Adams: some amazingly catchy and beautiful songs, surrounded by songs that just seem to scream "look at me! I'm prolific, and I'm not afraid to release anything!". Adams ups the annoyance quotient by releasing this as a double album, when the music on both discs would easily fit on one.
But, the good moments far outshine the bad, as is usually the case with Ryan Adams. The Cardinals are a great band, and he even gets the excellent Rachel Yamagata to sing along. All in all, you'll be happy with this. It's an album that has grown on me steadily over the years, and it never disappoints. Just don't pay double album price for it..buy it online for a better price. Ripping people off like that is not cool. [First added to this chart: 04/11/2012]

6. Games

14. Don’t Fail Me Now
In 2005, it was hard to find anyone more prolific than Ryan Adams. He released three albums that year: Cold Roses, Jacksonville City Nights, and 29. Jacksonville (a reference to Adam’s hometown in North Carolina) is the more country oriented of the three, and contains some of Adams’ more beautiful songs. With the opening track, Adams lets you know that this is most definitely a country album, led by Jon Graboff’s pedal steel. “Dear John” is a duet with Norah Jones, and almost all of the songs are listed as group compositions.
The album is not as strong as the excellent Cold Roses, but is still a fine album from Adams. Like all of his records, it does contain its share of filler, but unlike some of his efforts, it’s not too long that those lesser tracks become burdensome. Adams is a streaky writer…his streaks are very large, and he tends to record it all. Still, Jacksonville is a good look at the more country side of Ryan Adams. [First added to this chart: 04/12/2012]
