James

I recently put some of my old CDs into my iPod, and as I'm sitting here listening to it on shuffle, I'm really glad that I did. The old James song "Sit Down" just came on, followed immediately by "How Was It For You," and I remember now how happy this band makes me feel. I used to have 2 or 3 of their albums, along with a cassette of a live show, and I used to listen to this stuff all the time. Unfortunately, the only CD I seem to still have is the self-titled James, from 1991 (cover pictured above). If you think you don't know who they are, I refer you to the 1993 song "Laid" off the album by the same name. Listen and read a review here.
