As a fervent believer in quality music, you’ll be thrilled to know Ryan Adams has not one but three releases in 2005. The debut of “Cold Roses” in May, under the name Ryan Adams and the Cardinals, features contributions from skilled musicians like J.P. Bowersock and Cindy Cashdollar on guitar, Brad Pemberton on drums, and Catherine Popper on bass. Plus, the added bonus of guest vocals by Rachael Yamagata on both “Cold Roses” and “Let It Ride.”
