You can add The Gourds' GHOST OF HALLELUJAH to this date (March 9).

Best record I've heard in awhile.
And for all you Damnations fans, just know that they agree with me on
this one.

Plus, Rob Bernard (guitar, banjo, singing, songwriting for Damnations)
and Keith Langford (drums on HALF MAD and before, he quit their band to
join The Gourds) play on the record.

And all you ANODYNE, A.M., and BEING THERE, etc. fans can hear what Max
Johnston is up to these days.

Oh yeah, and don't forget Jimmy, Kev., and Claude, the winds beneath
'everyone's' wings.

Are you makin' fun of me?
'Cause if you are, I don't think I can take it.

Never happened to me before.

P.S.--I had to stop (drinking) prematurely last night so I wouldn't
embarrass myself too bad upon my rereading of my gushings today.
I think I might catch up tonight.
Too bad I don't live in Austin (yet), Max, Jim, and I could drink 96
beers (while listening to the Police) before sundown again.
You should hear me talk when I'm thatta way.  While, I cannot type so
well plastered, I can still talk.  And believe me, it's the most
profound shit you ever heard.
But you can't blame alcohol for your own stupidity.
And I've got alla that with or without the poisons.

Aw, I'm just joshing ya. Those few posts you made while hammered
(few?!!) had me rolling on the floor. Never have I seen anyone who could
type the way a drunken man talks gibberish. So I was almost disappointed
with your straight review of the Gourds, but that's alright. It was
still a good review.

Well, then, have yerself a good drunk tonight. Speaking of which, this
reminds me of a somewhat amusing Bob Sovine story, for what it's worth.
Last practice, the man had finished a 40 ouncer and was sitting down
when I started off a song. I get done with the little intro lick, and
instead of him coming in with his part, suddenly, Bob's guitar flies
through the air, smashing into the mic stand with a great
"grrboingpcrash!" in perfect time. "Damn strap." he sez.

 That's an impressive list, Bill.  I too am eager to hear the new
 Walter Clevenger (go P2!! g) and to fork out my bucks for that
 Willie Nelson twofer with Roger Miller and Faron.  Tasty!

I'd like to know more myself about details of how and when those records
were made. But the two-fer sounds like a no-brainer.

 So where do you get all these lists, Bill?  They're very
 informative

Well, this one was just copy-and-paste off the ICE Magazine website.

Glad it was of interest. I know it's probably old news for some around
here.
