Love the Dirty Dozen and a mix fetauring George Jones on it can't really be a bad one.

Very, very nice. I like all of these. Your title and your choice of a Howlin Wolf song remind me of what Sam Phillips used to say of the Wolf's music. Something about "where the soul of man never dies."

Hey, I just noticed something else. Different versions of "I'll Be Glad When You're Dead, You Rascal You" have been cropping up in your mixes. Are you familiar with the Louis Armstrong/Louis Jordan version? Very cool and lotsa fun.

Absolutely phenomenal, Mark. After I send your discs, we should discuss trading for this...

Steve, I hadn't heard the Armstrong/Jordan version of "I'll Be Glad When You're Dead," but I downloaded it after reading your comments. Thanks for the tip; I love it!
