“Isn’t it great how the internet works?” asked Margaret as she read an email message from Kevin Marks over my shoulder (don’t email me about what you’re giving her for Christmas, or at least put a warning in the subject line). Kevin seems to know someone who knows someone who may be able to alleviate my vintage-Jools-Holland withdrawal pangs. Tell Jools I saw him with Squeeze in Portland, Maine in 1979? touring behind Cool for Cats (when much of the set still relied on material from their first album).
[Later]: By the way, if you haven’t visited Shannon Campbell’s site and downloaded freely from her generous supply of music, you’re seriously missing out. “Dreaming of Violets” (the Scott Andrew LePera collaboration version, near the bottom of the page as it’s presently configured) is part of my life’s aural background, now, and her recent tribute to Ben and Mena, “Your Own Dot Org,” is terrific too. But especially “Dreaming of Violets.”
I’ve missed some recent additions, so I have to download them now. Then go to Mass.
