This is a re-post, from 2/06, of an, oft-requested, A.D. reader favorite. Below are the Loft Sessions Ryan Adams & The Cardinals (original lineup sans Cindy Cashdollar) recorded for XM Radio just prior to the kickoff of the Cold Roses tour in Los Angeles Spring 2005. These come highly recommended to even mild RA fans. The blues/jam workout on Gold’s “NY NY” is fantastic, as is the feedback laden finale of Love Is Hell’s “I See Monsters.”
