Yes I do like that too. I like all Howe's stuff, that I've heard, to varying degrees ...
.. and Giant Sand led me on to Calexice, Gotan Project, Mariachi, and it just keeps rolling on !

"'Sno Angel" was to hand last night - really enjoy his interplay with the Gospel Choir backing on it.

See about the reissue program ?

Gerry,

Thanks for the reissue list. You've saved me the bother of posting it as a certain person here with a hat and beard would be very interested in that list :-)
