In addition to the new record and S/T reissue, there are several other projects coming up, some of which have been previously mentioned here, that should be coming out over the course of the year. These include:
The Ballad Of Lucy Jordan for the Shel Silverstein Tribute– I believe this is coming in JuneWNKU 89.7, my listening choice while puttering around the house, just spun this song. I have to agree with some of the blogs I have read regarding arrangement of song. Plaintitive. Some twangy electric. The record is due for June 8 release titled Twistable, Turnable Man: Shel Silverstein Tribute
You can listen to samples on Amazon:

Holly is scheduled to appear on “Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour,” along with “Farewell Drifters” on Monday, May 24.
Here is a list of affiliates that broadcast taped shows.

Jeez, I forgot to add Band of Heathens. Stoll opened a show for them a few months ago in Lexington.
I would absoluetly consider going to Friday’s lineup if not knowing I have 3 of my favorite artists going out in the fall. I must save travel and $$$ favors with DH on the shows that are more dear to my <}
Too long (of a drive!)
I would definitely need to load the ipod up with lots of (you forgot LUCINDA!!!), Stoll, JM, and Amos, however, can you believe I don’t own an ipod?!?! I would have to stick with CD’s and XM. Friday’s lineup looks most intriguing to me, JJ Grey and MoFro, Carolyn Wonderland (she played Janis Joplin tribute…AMAZING!), Ryan Bingham. Robert Randolph and The Family Band. Don’t Forget Norah Jones (she jumpstarted Amos), Pete Yorn (my brother is a big fan of his), are names I recognize and familiar with. Ruby James, when I frequented MySpace, was ALL over the space, she was hard to miss.
Yes, anxious to see who will be taping ACL this year.
This must have slipped your mind with all the other great news you reported on, TO. I would think Lu is touched Pegi Young is covering one of her songs on an upcoming release.
Article follows:

Track Listing of Record:
FOUL DEEDS track listing is as follows:
1. Pleasing to Me (W. Jennings)
2. Broken Vows (P. Young)
3. Foul Deeds (P. Young)
4. Starting Over (P. Young/A. Crawford)
5. Who Knew (P. Young)
6. Side of the Road (L. Williams)
7. Blue Sunday (B. Boatman)
8. Traveling (P. Young)
9. Body Breaks (D. Banhart)Stoll covering “Angel From Montgomery” and “Jolene” at a tribute music festival in Florida. Dang, I’ve never heard him do cover songs from such great artists, I need to fine tune my requests!
Thank you, lwj! Mystery solved !Very cool Greg responded. I am loving that song and loving that Stoll covered it.

I may be jumping the gun a little bit but it looks like she will also be recording songs for two more amazing tribute projects–Loretta Lynn and Nick Drake. The day she got a handwritten note from Loretta in the mail asking Lucinda if she’d do a song –well let’s just say it was very very special and there were more than a few tears. ]
My recent course work in Luology, as I was reading items of interest about her days on Broadway in Nashville, had me stumbling across an interview that reminded me of Lu’s reaction to the handwritten note from Loretta. Lu was asked what she planned on taking with her as she was beginning a new tour. Lu’s response was she was taking some correspondence, she loved writing letters and sending greeting cards. Handwritten letters are something lost in translation with today’s technology so I can only imagine how much it meant to her. Thanks, TO, for always providing such great insight to events that are personal to Lu and sharing those with her fans. AMAZING!

Wait -there’s more -Lu will also be doing guest appearances on two other artists records -one of which I think is going to make a certain someone in this forum very happy.]
Hmmm, could it be the “Methuselah of Righteous Cool,” Neil Young, Anne McCue ( doubtful, she just released new record,) Erika Wennerstrom (doubtful, touring), John Mellencamp (doubtful, he’s releasing record Aug 3 but could he add Lu, theres’ a TBone Burnett connection here, of sorts), OR could it be Amos Lee, who is recording material he was previewing at some recent shows, saying he was going into studio end of May. Let me go on record, that IF it is either Mr. Mellencamp or Mr. Lee, this fan will be near an orgasmic state, to say the least! 😆 😮 😛

Oh yeah–Still no word on the long in the can Hank Williams project (I’m So Happy I Found You). This one seems to have been shelved.
My hope is Lu plays this from time to time at her shows. I LOVE this tune and knowing she played it the night of the wedding, even better!
I love Izzy Zaidman’s version, too! I’m beginning to wonder if this is truly the song title. You would think with 2 different artists posting it on YT as such it is indeed the song title, it’s just so weird there is no recorded version coming up when searching . Anxious to see if you hear a response lwj. Thanks!
Here is a link to some photos from Bill Rouda’s “NASHVILLE’S LOWER BROAD: The Street That Music Made” with the foreword written by Lucinda. There are several photos of Lucinda featured, one of them at Robert’s Western World. More dot connecting. Back in April I drove to Nashville by myself to catch Amos Lee at Mercy Lounge. I was asking the gal at the merch table, a local, for a good place to catch some late night live music after Amos’s show . She directed me to Robert’s. I was staying on Broadway, random luck, drove down the street, but didn’t have the nerve to saunter in to Robert’s.
So sorry. I just had an Edith Bunker moment ^. Here’s the link.

Yes, it is cool how all the …… connect ! The other night Stoll also brought up Kenny Vaughan. Kenny (I assume) was/is playing with Marty Stuart. Stoll opened several shows for Marty, whom he absolutely adores as well. He proceeded to tell me, as he was relaying his Greg story, that “Kenny Vaughan is one of the great session players and he said he would PAY to play with Greg.” I must have misunderstood him, especially with the revelation Kenny played with Greg.
Thanks for looking lwj! The mystery still continues as to the origin of “Down In The Bottom.”
The book is now on my wish list.
Stoll came through my neck of the woods last week, playing a singer songwriter round with two local musicians. This was probably one of my more favorite Stoll Vaughan shows. Here is a little gospel tune he wrote, has never recorded, but I hope he does soon. The lighting is terrible in the video but the sound is decent.

BTW, tnt…Stoll is coming to Eddie’s Attic on May 22. I would seriously consider traveling to your beloved state but the timing is not working in my favor.
