MG Well, now I know why MG expected me to have some answers - we've set a new mark for "songs I own but fail to recognize" in a single BFT. 2, 4, 9, 12, 13 and 14 are all in my collection (as well as ten, which I did identify in general if not specifics).

Oh dear, oh dear! VERY pleased to see you've got the Jackie Ivory! MG Quote
mikeweil Posted May 23, 2007 Report Posted May 23, 2007 (edited) Good to see you back to board business, MG! re # 1: I had that Chamblee Lp for a few years but sold it along with other stuff I noticed I almost never pulled out to listen to. Lou Bennett was a bad cat! I need some more of him! Rhoda Scott ..... need more of her, too! Reading through the answers makes the selections even more interesting. Great job!

birdanddizzy Posted June 16, 2007 Report Posted June 16, 2007 Hi Allan, Thank you for your really interesting BFT. I have been really "lost" and couldn't find more than 3 or 4 titles ! I'm glad to discover such interesting artists/recordings ! Best Steven Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted June 16, 2007 Author Report Posted June 16, 2007 Glad you liked it Steven. I bet you got the Lou Bennetts... MG Quote
