Hey Professor Rockman--

One of these days, before too long, you gotta get yourself up to New York and then to one of Levon's Midnight Rambles. 150-200 people in a big old barn in Woodstock listening to mountain music and bordello blues--what could be better?

An event made for you, sir--

Thanks always for all the info.

Glenn Barber's Ice Water that hard to find, massive slice of
rockin' Hillbilly Bop can be found as opening track of Lovers and Killers



ROCKMAN

Oh sorry to hear Glenn Barber has passed away, I liked that Ice Water

Yeah Erik knew ya'd get the drift......

I got an old time car all shiny black
All dressed up like a Cadillac
If I look too shot, don't let me start her
Was my face in ice cold water

There's been so much chrome & chains here lately, so it's about time Lovers&Killers got a re-listen - and it does, right now - excellent stuff, Rockman
