X - Fourth of July [SEE HOW WE ARE/Slash]
	A little obvious?  Maybe.  Still a GREAT song, and I sure as 
	hell haven't heard it on the radio in years ... written by 
	Dave Alvin
THE BLASTERS - American Music [AMERICAN MUSIC/Hightone]
	More from those devilishly talented Alvin boys.

RANDY NEWMAN - Political Science [SAIL AWAY/Reprise]
	One of my favorite ... um, patriotic songs.  Eerily relevant today.

	Himself and acoustic guitar.
BLACK 47 - Living in America [FIRE OF FREEDOM/EMI]
DOLORES KEANE and MICK HANLY - My Love Is In America [BRINGING IT 
	ALL BACK HOME/BBC-Hummingbird]
	Two songs of the Irish emigrant experience in America about 
	a dozen years ago.  Nowadays they're mostly staying home, enjoying 
	the booming economy of "The Celtic Tiger" and not writing so many 
	sad songs, which I guess is a good thing.
	
JAY UNGAR - Ashokan Farewell [THE CIVIL WAR: ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK 
	RECORDING/Elektra-Nonesuch]
	A really sweet tune that you probably haven't heard in a 
	few years, and quintessentially American.

	Rounder]
	A gorgeous cover of a tune by Jay Ungar.
