I'd read about Garcia but had missed out on her recent CD - she lives up to her rep and I need to check her album out. Boyd, I knew from his collab with Binker, but Theon Cross was new to me. I have this nightmare where I'm dodging around a corner to avoid a banjoist only to be confronted with a tuba player plumbing the subterranean depths of his instrument. However, if that tuba man had been Cross my nightmare would have morphed into a pleasant dream - the sort you have just before you awaken to reality.

CD Review: Theon Cross - FYAH
I'd read about Garcia but had missed out on her recent CD - she lives up to her rep and I need to check her album out. Boyd, I knew from his collab with Binker, but Theon Cross was new to me. I have this nightmare where I'm dodging around a corner to avoid a banjoist only to be confronted with a tuba player plumbing the subterranean depths of his instrument. However, if that tuba man had been Cross my nightmare would have morphed into a pleasant dream - the sort you have just before you awaken to reality.
