Another Top Tip

I have been away in my own private Idaho. Plus working. Yawn.

Sorry.

As partial recompense for for ignoring you and then boring you here's some music by a great group with a great name: Alabama Shakes. They have a genuinely brilliant genuinely American girl singer who looks like someone who sat next to you in history class (named, alas, Brittany). Still, you'll love it - oh the guitars. Try "Hold On" for starters. More great stuff follows.

Cheers.

Nan - Thanks so much for letting me know. Really, your enthusiasm made my day. I bought the EP too and have listened to it 4x over as I have been unwinding today. Isn't it great to find stuff like this? It reminds me what a great country this is.
