CD - FOO FIGHTERS - "Skin and Bones"

I must say this CD was quite a nice surprise. I've been a Foo Fighters fan since their debut record now released over 10 years ago. Along the way, they have made some fantastic records and some, well, not so much. Their most recent effort, "In Your Honor", released last year, left me disapointed. "Skin and Bones" is an acoustic performance that was recorded at several L.A. concerts last summer and has the feel of the "Unplugged in New York" Nirvana CD (one of my favorite CDs of all time). Dave Grohl's voice is both charismatic and powerful and the musical arrangements (including violin, piano, etc.) work amazingly. If you've ever been a Foo Fighters fan, you must check it out !
