Wow! That's hard to remember. Other than local bands through high school, I think Black Sabbath was the first concert I paid for but I stood 6 feet away from the Allman Brothers in a gezebo in Piedmont Park, Atlanta and was awestruck…

Frank Sinatra's version of "Strangers In The Night" often runs through my mind when I am seeking a distraction, although I sometimes get a fixation on "Quick Joey Small".

Lost in the Woods. Who else would take a Zulu expression and make it into a hit? Too bad tunes from The Wedding Album aren't included. That is a really powerful set of tunes and should have more prominence in the catalog.

Bill Long commented on No Depression's blog post 'Exile On Main Street vs The White Album smackdown contest'

Interesting stuff. Maybe they could get Phil Tanner & John Carson on their program.
Bill Long replied to Jim Pipkin's discussion 'Is a Folkie just an Americana Artist Whose Band Quit?' in the group Folk Alley
