Entering his final year as host of the Late Show, it’s hard to imagine anyone taking David Letterman’s place as a mainstream supporter of roots music.
Ryan Adam and his and band The Shining stopped by to treat Dave and the audience with his latest single “Gimme Something Good†from his self-titled 14th studio album.
Once Adams the band were done with a rousing performance, Letterman reverted to fanboy mode — “Come on!â€, “What do you want?â€, “Oh my God is taht nice! Can you do just a little bit more?†An obliging Adams kicked into the opening chords as the credits rolled.
Can you recall Letterman requesting an encore? I can’t. Damn, I’m going to miss that man and how much he’s supported great music.

He requested an encore from DBT when they played “Everybody Needs Love”
