Good Sunday, friends. Today was one of those perfect lazy days when you wake up (in a bagel-less house, oh, the horror!), head out to the market, and then spend the afternoon eating nachos and drinking strawberry champagne in the company of good people. Everyone professed their love for one another. It was rather beautiful in a warm and fuzzy way. Tonight I think I'm staying in. Last night was the first night in a while that did not end with me drunkenly passing out somewhere, though I did alter my state and try to watch an episode of "Lost" [...]

There are two labels I shy away from writing about. The first is Red House and that's a shame since theyare one of the preminent folk labels. The reason I don't cover Red House artists is simple...they don't want me to. The second label I don't cover is Rounder and the same reason applies but I also have a prejudice against Rounder for some of it's heavy handed business practices.
