Re: Jesse Winchester
I'm delighted that Jesse Winchester is doing another album...must have some good songs done by now! As many of you know, Stony Plain has the rights to the Bearsville catalogue, and all seven albums from that fetile period remain in the catalogue. And, hey, if Sugar Hill has Jerry Douglas with Jesse, Stony Plain's got Amos Garrett with Jesse... Jesse HATES performing live, gives interviews reluctantly (but has been very good in supporting the Stony Plain releases - oh, yes, did I say I do publicity for Stony Plain?)...Jesse also gave the late John Bauldie of Mojo what Bauldie later described as "the worst interview I've ever done on the phone" but it made a nice whatever-happened-to article. Congrats to Barry Poss and the Sugar Hill gang for getting the man to make another one. Now, if they can get him to tour, I want to do the Toronto date! Cheers, Richard

Someone asked about Jesse Winchester (sorry, I'm slow, I'm on digest). I can't tell you too much about the upcoming CD yet since we won't get advances until May. I have heard the rough mixes, though, and I think fans of Jesse should like it. The songs are great, but of course the mixes are, well, rough. Jerry Douglas is producing it and he does wonders with the final mix. I had someone say that they'd crawl naked across a field of broken glass in the pouring rain to see Jesse. Other fans of his that I've talked to seem to be just as...um...rabid. -- == Steve Gardner * Sugar Hill Records Radio Promotion [EMAIL PROTECTED] * www.sugarhillrecords.com WXDU "Topsoil" * A Century of Country Music [EMAIL PROTECTED] * www.topsoil.net ==

Let's hope a tour supports the CD and makes it's way through Beantown. Kate NP - Tom/God Knows Where
