James Nolan's Perpetual Care: Stories Worth reading - short stories mostly in, of, and about New Orleans. Read in spurts - can't take too much weirdness in large doses.

Thanks so much for posting that. Captures something of the time before I heard Cecil's music, so it truly was great to read. I hope Robert Levin finishes his book - look forward to reading it. Remember some of his writings from back when. Hope I've become a "good listener" and hope to become a better one.

Just finished reading David Fulmer's novel, Jass.

I wonder how many Yanks are enjoying this thread? I find it fascinating, even tho I've never set foot in any of the stores that have been mentioned.

Didn't Georgia experience a drought last year? What's going on down there?

Belated birthday wishes to Mr. Abrams. I hope there are many more to come. Thanks for all of the wonderful music.

Beautiful fall day - supposed to get to the low 70's - not a cloud in the sky & no humidity. More of this, please.

Good to read that Cecil is traveling. I was worried after the cancellation of his Australian dates some months back.
