Kudos to you and the Selection Committee, Jeff on an amazing job with this landmark LP. Every track I have heard is exceptional. What a music town Ottawa has evolved into over the years. CKCU has been a driving force for the many talented artists to emerge from the Ottawa Scene. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY to all !

Jeff is writing too much
Thanks Neil. Dave Aardvark, Bruce White, our selection committee, Jordon Zadorozny (Skylark Park Studios) and John Thompson (The Record Centre) all played vital roles. Many thanks to all of the local artists who participated. Stay tuned for an announcement about an expanded 50 song digital playlist.

I'll let "Jeff is writing too much" to repond every week, since "tic talks" but doesn't write too much. Get it?
