Sounds Like
Listen for yourself!
"Gayleanne": Featuring Lucinda Williams, this is the song about a woman I met in Nashville married to an overbearing soul and so very tied to her dream of reaching stardom in a city brimming over with everyone else’s songs.
"Whatever Happened Between Richard Payne and Burton Post?": this is a story of a young man from West Virginia in the 1950’s who did his time in prison for his crimes of robbery only to commit his next fatal do wrong within hours of his release. The question still remains why.
"Fool": a song of love unrequited
"Hidden Track": this conversation takes place with the last living relative of mine who knew and lived the experience of my family’s moonshine dealings. My great, great half uncle Raymond tells the story (and sings the family tune) the best he can recall of the day the sheriff came to bust the still. (Ironically another Binion family member became sheriff in that very county decades later!)

Hello there. Just writing to let you know that Misophone’s new album ‘Be glad you are only human’ will finally be released on the 1st of November on Kning Disk. We hope you enjoy it.
Just writing to let you know about the arrival of another new album from misophone- I sit at open windows, on another-record. (another-record.com, myspace.com/anotherrecord) Due out on May 5th.
The album contains 12 unreleased songs, including the previously lost archive tracks ‘castles in the sand’ & ‘cow bell blues’.
Thanks Terri. My head is as big as Charlie Brown's now. Can't wait to hear your new cd to see where you're travelling! I still owe you a bottle of wine.
Thanks you so much. By the way, we have been working with a new keyboard player that I think you know. His name is Jack Stirling and he used to play with the Legendary JC's. When will I get to see you again? It has been too long.
Yer Sounding good yourselves and many thanks for the friendship. If you're interested we have just released a CD for which you can pay what you choose (with Free Worldwide Postage)...cheers
Nice. I understand completely. ;) I'm really excited about the festival... it's really starting to pan out into something I couldn't have imagined. Keep good thoughts in your head for me and the festival, I hope it's a great success. See you soon. Much love and respect to you darling.
