I have no vital discographical insights to offer - I just wanted to say how much I've enjoyed looking round this blog. It adds up to a very important contribution to American discography and it's packed full of great music, not to mention those lovely label-shots! This track, for one (Whittaker Rag) is a real beauty, but there's just so much great stuff here. Many thanks for your efforts and your generosity.
ReplyDeleteA link to Tommy's website with lots of pictures and a nice short biography. I wonder how many from Oregon know they once had such a star in their midst? http://tommykizziah.com/
