Special thanks to all the bands on My Space who not only turned me on to their own music, but also promoted other bands that they really liked. Y'all Rawk in a serious way! (and check out the CJ's Radio Olio My Space page) And Hooray! for Twin/Tone records out of Minnesota for digitizing Big Hits of Mid-America vol.3. The vinyl 2-album set I bought in 1981 came with two Album 1s and no Album 2s. I've finally heard sides 3 and 4! Ain't the Long Tail a blast??
Love and Peace, Clarence
