30 years ago today (9/15/92), The Jayhawks released their third and arguably finest studio album Hollywood Town Hall. Led by the co-songwriting/vocal team of Gary Louis and Mark Olson, the Twin Cities-based band brought in smooth harmonies with rustic hints of alt-country years before artists like Ryan Adams and Wilco helped popularize that sound. Hollywood Town Hall still sounds ripe and ready today, as with most Jayhawks albums, quality always perseveres. Check out the video for the album’s “big” single “Waiting For The Sun.”
