I have both the original and the Friday Music remastered from the original Grunt analog tapes reissue on 180g vinyl. Both sound great, especially the 180g vinyl. ONe of my favorite JS records. I'm pretty sure I have everything J and JS released. Most of Hot Tuna too.

Hi Jim
I have quite a few LPs but for each one I have there's at least 10 I don't have.
I'll keep an eye out for anything by them Thanks

I've owned three of their albums since they were released back in the late 60's/early 70's. Classical baroque rock by Julliard trained musicians. Allmusic compares them to The Left Banke and The Zombies. P-man, I think you will like them. I will be on the lookout for some clean copies.

Hi Laura,

Are you familiar with the music/work of Alison Krauss? Though she comes from a strong bluegrass and traditionalist background, I thought for some reason you might really like her. The strength of her songs, accompanying musicians and arrangements are top notch. She also specializes in Appalachian style spirituals. Her brother is a very accomplished bass player, backs her up, as well as he is in Lyle Lovett's band. This might be too "country" for you, but nonetheless I thought of you...

Here's a good example:

Hi Din,

Thanks for thinking of me. You are right, I do like her (and some bluegrass as well--Nickel Creek and early String Cheese Incident). I have two AK & Union Station LPs, a CD by her (A Hundred Miles or More) and an AK & Union Station DVD. I also have Raising Sand by her & Robert Plant. I saw her and Union Station a few years ago from the 6th row in Spokane Arena's Star Theater. Excellent show. She has the voice of an angel. Her band is terrific and has played with her for a long time. Jerry Douglas might be the best Dobra player on the planet.

I am going to look for the album you posted. Thanks again.

Laura

Great Laura. Then your hip to Alison. I would have loved to see that show... 6th row, not bad. To tell you the truth, I was a little disappointed in her collaboration with Robert Plant. Although I have "Raising Sand" on LP, I haven't really been able to get into it. Maybe I need to pull it out and give it a spin again. From what I understand, Alison heralds from my neck of the woods... Illinois.

BTW, the example I posted I only have on CD... hope that's not cheatin'.

Best regards, Din
