  1. What a great blog you're running! Lots of stuff that's familiar but hard to hear, and lots of stuff that's unfamiliar altogether. This is some of America's greatest music, and it's a pleasure to have someone out there with a great ear for it. Thanks.

  3. Thank You!
    I've been looking for stuff like this for a long time - stuff that seems to be of no interest to the big record companies. stuff that's so important to our understanding of "modern" music". Thanks again!
