    I was looking on Amazon and noticed that on August 18th “Ramblin on My Mind” and “Happy Woman Blues” are going to be reissued on LP. This is very cool, since these two titles are extremely hard to find on LP.

    Does anyone one have any more details?

    No more details, Parker, but thanks for this wonderful revelation. I assume it’s a label other than Smithsonian Folkways, right? I’ve combed many a musty vinyl bin, never found anything before the ’88 Rough Trade release. Speaking of that, I think early ’10 will bring us a reissue with bonus features there, since Lucinda owns the masters. We’ll see.

    Hope you got that Wilco shirt laundered and ready for further use at the STeve Earle show. . .

    I did. The earle show was really good. He always puts on a good show.

    Dylan is coming to Dallas next month, just not sure I can do the Ballpark show this go around. Not sure it is worth the price for 14-16 songs.

    Hopefully lucinda comes back through this way or Kansas City before the year is up.

    If Bob does “Forgetful Heart” with 3 harp solos like the other night in Ill., Parker, it would be worth going.

    Very cool. That album has really grown on me. The first few times, I was like oh gawd it is “knocked out loaded” pt 2.

    There is a rumor that McCartney is coming to Tulsa in August, so I might have to save my cash for that.

    I see on Amazon that the reissues have the original cover art.
    I will definitely be getting these. 8)

    I believe the question was asked elsewhere in here but the Folkways reissues were indeed done without any input from Lucinda or myself. In fact I found about it here while we were in Europe. Not real happy about that and my fingers are crossed that the quality is up to Lucinda’s standards.
    The problem is that Lucinda got a bit hoodwinked on these records back when the deal was done and she signed away most of the rights, so I’m not even sure that we can do anything about it-but it will be looked into.

    Thanks for the additional info, Tom.

    The place “elsewhere” Tom mentions is here if anyone is interested in additional details on these unauthorized reissues.
