Anyone who knows me well knows that the music filling my air space most of the time has a very distinct country western flavour to it. (No, not "new" country – "real" country.)

Through the wonders of the internet, I've had the opportunity to chat with a few of the people whose music I play. A while ago, I invited one of my favorite singer/songwriters (and a former high school English teacher – just like me!) to read Hot Apple Cider and give us an endorsement.

Today, this arrived in my email box – all the way from Texas… Thanks, jAm!
