It's hard to pinpoint what separates him from the million-and-one guys with guitars out there. PacNW fellow from Hazel and Golden Delicious... It's part Young Fresh Fellows pop, part Elliott Smith downbeats, all of which is awash in warmth and twang. The voice is versatile and the songs are wonderful -- tender, sad, desperate, but also humorous, as is the case with "Analog," a song about LPs sung from the LPs perspective. "Sitting on the stereo... waiting for you to turn me around..." It's on Cavity Search. I can't stop playing the bugger. Don, Jake, anyone up that way... will ya testify? Neal Weiss

The Dharma Bums...now there's a long, lost, lamented band. I have Bliss and Welcome, and dig them muchly.

Neil asks, what about Pete Krebs. What can I say, I was a Hazel fan. First saw him solo on a bill with my little bro down at NXNW 4-5 years ago. I played a show on a bill with him in 1996 at the old club Moe. His thing keep growing on me. Like what I've heard of the record. PST is cool song. Like "Mr Smalltown (I think that's what it's called ) also. Only seen him once with the band. Mix wasn't great that night. I'll be back again though. Much more familiar with Marc Olsen. That guy is the unsung hero of the Seattle scene. His old band Sage was great live. I like their first album better than the second one. His first solo record is cool, but it really doesn't do justice to what he's into now. His band has really jelled in the last year or so. Fender Rhodes player adds a lot. I haven't heard the new record, but I'm looking forward to it. He's one of my favorite guitars players, period. jake Jake London
