Ray LaMontagne is a beautiful man. He is a folk singer with a gorgeous voice and a pure soul. He also happens to be my best friend's favourite musician of all time. Recently, she asked me to find her a handful of his demo albums. These albums all preceded 2004's Trouble, and according to my friend, Ray is "embarrassed" by the raw quality of these pre-label albums, which means he'll probably never make them public again. Thankfully, the internet is a great place, so I found them. One of my readers requested that I post them, so here they are. Enjoy!

Beautiful thanks for this! And great info on the fall tour that is something that I did not know, I smell a road trip in the foreseeable future!
you guys are very welcome.
Great post. Never new these existed and been a fan for awhile. Unfortunately, I've never seen him live. He tours so little and the New York shows sell out so quick. Will definitely explore your blog. Thanks.
i can't thank you enough for the live zip files. fantastic. i heart you.
I agree he's a folk singer with a gorgeous voice an pure soul but "beautiful man?" I don't think so just look at his face he's really ugly.
Awesome! Hey all, check out a GREAT band from Australia called "the blackwater fever".
Thanks so much!!!

Hi Alexandra, what is your e-mail ? :)
Can you PLEASE e-mail me Acre of Land also
Will someone please email me or provide a link to these albums? I'll take anything I can get. I also used to have these, but a computer crash and a stolen external hard drive later, I've got nothing. Slowly rebuilding my music library. My email is tylerchouser@gmail.com . Thank you in advance!
I used to have all these albums on burned CDs and I haven't been able to listen to any of them in so long. I think they'd be just what I needed in this moment of my life. Is there anyone who can send me the files to my email? These links aren't working. daveydavidson13@gmail.com
