    June Tabor -and- Irish Descendants. Two great artists from that -other- genre I collect a lot of. Love it! You have heard her rendition of Elvis Costello's "All This Useless Beauty" and Billy Bragg's "Rumors of War", right? I know you're a fan of both of those original artists…

    Also really enjoyed that Musically Challenged, and I was stunned when you were -so- close to getting that first Haiku. I was convinced that since I got it, you would at any moment as well…

    At the end of the show (#651), you say there are 653 shows in the archives now, but I can't find the other two… *grin* Although now I'm tempted to 'reconstruct' the missing two in some entertaining fashion.

    Finally caught up with this. Did you intentionally put the Ivy and Fountains of Wayne covers together, given that Adam Schlesinger is involved with both groups? If so, well played. If not, one heck of a coincidence. I may have to check out more of the Ivy album now — found a few more cover gems in there already.

    Wish there was a way to buy the whole album – they have so many great covers on their website but no link for cd purchase- just shirts on such.
