Amos Lee - Some Days Are Diamonds

I have been a big Amos Lee fan for a long time now.  I've seen him in concert multiple times, including the Oregon Zoo and a bunch of different venues in S.F. from college.  He does an amazing Michael McDonald impression sometimes, and he just generally has great banter between songs.  He just recorded a cover of John Denver's "Some Days Are Diamonds" for the forthcoming "The Music is You: A Tribute to John Denver," out April 2nd.



Other artists contributing to The Music Is You include Dave Matthews, My Morning Jacket, and Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeroes. Pre-order now at Amazon and iTunes.



Here are some of my other favorite Amos Lee songs.  I generally like his earlier stuff better (Amos Lee, Supply and Demand, and Last Days at the Lodge) and haven't been as wowed by his more recent releases.
