I find the Paige stuff tedious, I find Stan's marriage tedious. I like (at least I think I do) character development, but I prefer non-relationship plot lines. In Mad Men, I always find the advertising stories more interesting than the romances.

A bit of a hidden gem is his collaboration with Marty Stuart on a Buddy Holly tribute:

Guitar Town
My Old Friend the Blues
Hardcore Troubadour
Ft. Worth Blues
The Week of Living Dangerously
Tennessee Blues (better without drum machine)
Goodbye's All We've Got Left
Sometimes She Forgets
I Thought You Should Know
I'm Still in Love With You

He said "Goodbye Guitar Town" in "Tennessee Blues" but it was in reference to Nashville, not his album. Guitar Town is fantastic, and was of historic significance in my opinion.
