Billy Conway gets the honors batting lead-off to what starts off as the second set, runs through a few stop signs and yellow lights, winding up as the third set too. I learned long ago that these things happen, and it’s best to go with the flow. I urge you to check out the Billy Conway Artist Fund (click), one of the finest humans I have encountered in this business, and a hell of a musician. This is a Billy demo version of one of his songs, never released. Speaking of, the new release bin is responsible for live My Morning Jacket, new albums from Joan Armatrading, Jazz Sabbath, Andrew Weiss and Friends and the decades in the making collaboration of The Last Poets and Tony Allen. In addition a wonderful 50th Anniversary Edition of Al Stewart’s seminal “Past, Present and Future” album, live Father John Misty and a jam-packed recording of last year’s Crossroads Guitar Festival.

The twists, turns and tales are plentiful before wrapping with a send off to King Crimson lyricist and co-founder Peter Sinfield, and in their announcement of his passing they tagged on “original roadie, lights operator and live sound engineer.” He wrote the lyrics for their first four albums. Also “I Believe In Father Christmas” with Greg Lake and in later years everyone from Bucks Fizz to Celine Dion.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your generous contributions to keeping this project alive, our tip jar will be visible through the end of the year.
