tomhull.com: January 2002 Notebook

The top entry on this page has two-sentence reviews of about 50 albums, including most of Bob Wills's Tiffany Transcriptions, For the Last Time, and the Longhorn Recordings; the two Billy Jack Wills compilations; Tommy Duncan's solo work; Adolph Hofner; Merle Travis; Jimmie Rogers (the Singing Brakeman); Jimmie Rivers (Brisbane Bop); and old-time fiddler Eck Robertson. This guy doesn't care for obscuring the music patter and chatter -- the sort you find on the Longhorn Recordings and on old radio transcriptions. I find the snippets of talk colorful and fascinating.
