Mark,
Thank for the kind words. I hadn’t intended to return to this subject matter anytime soon (if ever) but then HST threw me a curve ball. I’m glad this episode touched you. You’re the counterbalance to the guy who grumpily told me how much I suck this morning.
I couldn’t have put it any better than Mark did above. I’ll just consider his words the Hallmark card I wanted to write, but couldn’t find the words.

Reveals no Grace Braun. Checked out her website, and downloaded another mp3 or two. She reminds me of the female folk/rock/country/etc singers I liked so much back in the late 60’s and the 70’s. I’ll be buying the CD when/if I find it.

I have no idea who this chick is on the guitar, but it sure sounds like Phoebe from Friends singing smelly cat :-)… Other then that great show Dave, please keep up the great shows.
Awesome stuff. I think your show has more soul than any other one out there. Keep it up.
Ken,
I bought my CDs straight from the record label – Dark Beloved Cloud. You can PayPal them now, which beats when I had to cut them a check a year ago. You are correct, nothing for Grace or DQE in iTunes.
Well the weekend as arrived and I finally listened to the show and opened my USPS package from the EGC. The shirt arrived and thanks for the note on back of George Carlin January 17. If I knew how much trouble it was I would have taken the black shirt, but thanks for your efforts. I will unwrap the CD and listen to it.
Thanks for the show. Mourn the losses, but life goes on.
