A quick comment and a quick question: In her invaluable Chicago calendar, Linda Ray notes: >>> Special days clipped from Heather's Li'l Country calendar, available for $12 from the Record Roundup, 2034 W. Montrose. >>> And I'm happy to report that since a month and half of 1999 has slipped away on us already, the calendar is now an even bigger bargain at the new, improved price of $10. Without it, how would you know that the Big E and Priscilla d-i-v-o-r-c-e-d on this date in 1972? My little girl picked up a cool pair of finger cymbals there, too. And while I couldn't justify paying the dough for any of those fine looking slabs of old country vinyl, it was fun to dream.

I haven't seen or heard anything from them since "tricycle," which came out on Delmore in 94 or 95. A real nice record, with a little hint of that wiggly Feelies vibe mixed in with some moody (and some pretty), indie-poppish songs. Graded up even more for having a song about baseball on it. Tom np: "Sad and Dangerous" - Dirty Three (fits my mood at work today just perfectly)
