Plip, plip, plip, can't disagree. I might be planting flowers, but I'm not.

Steve Kirkland (host)
Damper on your green-thumb Saturday evening out, but glad you're in with us, Benoît

Weird, I don't think I've ever heard *Jeremiah*, but it's really not new...

6:24 PM, May 20th, 2023
Steve Kirkland (host)
From a lesser-known Buffy album, B

That Valdy song still plays well! But it's also the curse of the older musician, that successful song...

6:36 PM, May 20th, 2023
Steve Kirkland (host)
It's a very poignant song, B, kinda sums up my take on him... it's the only song of his I really ever listen to

6:38 PM, May 20th, 2023

Have you ever played any Parker MIllsap? A still young American singer/guitar whiz, perhaps a bit like Colin James may have been. Saw him live (on impulse, rewarded) at Neat Coffee Shop in Burnstown, bought his *Other Arrangements* disc, etc. It plays well, contains good rockers and good ballads.

6:40 PM, May 20th, 2023
Steve Kirkland (host)
Parker Millsap is new to me, Thanks for the tip, I'll look up/listen...

Canoe in rain....beauty! Tub & "Brilliance" now, perfect!...& beauty! I'm a Valdy fan....Diamond Joe White used to open for him....I knew Joe....

Steve Kirkland (host)
Howdy hillbilly! Glad we're helping you relax after a wet river (lake?) ride!

Another detail re Parker Millsap, he's got a fun, 'fed up' rocker about "tonka trucks" in the US; it's called *Some People*.

Steve Kirkland (host)
Cheers B!

This show is, nicely, going madly off in all directions. Which was the title of a favourite radio comedy show. Aaaah, Lorne Elliott! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Madly_Off_in_All_Directions

I met Valdy in a coffee shop outside of Victoria- a perfect gentlemen in a perfect locale.
