SOME COMMENTS FROM THE PUNTERS.
Hi, thanks for all potcasts!
Great music!
Cheers from Germany.
Peter
'A truly GREAT presentation!
Your dialog is as interesting as the music you play! I loved the WHOLE
SHOW!'
Paul Evans
'Thanks for updates! Podcasts are great! I live in CANADA and plan to
visit one day, maybe 'retire' there.'
Wayne Speller
'Hi Jerome, have been hanging out for the latest podcast, it was worth
the wait! Keep up the great work.'
Hugh Williams
'Just want to say thank you for the very very fine podcasts which South Australian
Roots & Blues produces. I've been listening for over a year
now, and have never ceased to be impressed with the high level of scholarship
and professionalism which goes into making each one. I know it
takes a great deal of effort to make the podcasts and that it
is a labor of love of the blues, a love which I share.'
Nick Teele
I have found yet another fine Blues podcast to add to my collection. Thanks for all your hard work on the show and for providing us with the download. I drive a truck for a living and driving with the Blues is the only way to go. Thanks again and Keep on Rockin' those tunes!
Jerry in St. Louis, Missouri.
Hi Jerome.
Big fan of the show. I listen every month, send it to my ipod and listen again while bicycling and working out.
Thanks for playing the cut from Dylan's new album, which leads me to a question that I am sure you've been asked before. Did Dylan "borrow" your "It's nighttime in the big city" show open for his Theme Time Radio Hour on XM, which begins with "It's nighttime in the city"? Bob is well-known for absconding with other artists' ideas...and I don't hold it against him. I love his body of work too much to ever be pissed at him. But I am curious. Keep up the good work, Jerome. The show is great. What a voice and delivery you have. Very unique!
I too just had a zero birthday (60). Each day is still a mystery filled with wonder.
