The Posies - Acoustic Duo - 99X FM, Atlanta, GA, 5-5-1996

The Posies are a drastically underappreciated band. Maybe their problem is they had their heyday in the wrong place at the wrong time - Seattle in the 1990s. That was the heyday of grunge, and they tried to fit in, but in my opinion their strongest suit is there acoustic material.

For instance, this album. It's not nothing but two acoustic guitars, two voices harmonizing like angels, and excellent songwriting. Ken Stringfellow and Jon Auer play songs from the latest Posies album "Amazing Disgrace," and earlier albums.

I've added two songs at the end that are also done in acoustic duo style from the same year, for a different radio show. That fleshes the album out to a pleasing 42 minutes.

In early 2021, I changed the photo for the cover art after finding a better one. (The original was in black and white and low-res.) I don't know when or where this photo was taken, but judging by their appearance it's from their early years.
