A link to an article about Murder Ballads, for later reference.

Also the title of one of Nick Cave's best CDs.

They mention it as well in the article.

I remember hearing about these tunes, including hearing "The Wild Rose", on CBC Radio One. Not sure if it was The Current or Sounds Like Canada...

Um, yeah, the quality of this article is compromised by their very skimpy Nick Cave bit and also for selecting the hit off of "Murder Ballads" and not discussing the album at any depth beyond the title when it's explicitly dedicated to your SUBJECT.

They also omitted the fact Johnny Cash produced a compilation album entitled "Murder" with American.

Still, it was useful in that it made me want to buy things, and I think that's all we can ask for.

I'm just annoyed that Nick Cave wasn't given his due. Sure, it's a puff piece, but a little research isn't asking too much of journalism these days.

Right?
