again, the delay is due to the 12 cups of snow outside

Here's last night's playlist. A pretty good show, I think. And I got one of the best phone calls I've ever gotten. Someone called up to thank me for introducing them to Way of the West and wanting to know if the CD I'd played was a good place to start. It would, in fact, be a good place to both start and finish (containing as it does their entire recorded output). That is, it would if it existed commercially. Which it doesn't. (many thanks again to swanhunter!! for hooking me up). I did some googling last night and discovered that: (1) the Way of the West catalog (five 12-inch singles, iirc) has never been issued on CD; (2) it's really hard to search for info on the band, because the movie keeps getting in the way. For those born too late or just not into the same kinda music as me (what?!?), Way of the West are one of the great forgotten bands of the 80s. I know... they only released a handful of singles so that's not too surprising. Best known (when known) for "City for Lovers" and "Don't Say That's Just for White Boys."
