Run C&W re-issued

2009-10-28T07:47:00.000-07:00

BGO records has re-released Run C&W's two records as a 2-disc set. For those unfamiliar with Run C&W, it was a comedic music group of which Bernie Leadon was a member. It spoofed then-modern music (early 90s) by covering it in bluegrass style, along with a few original joke tracks. See the BLO page on their albums here. To order a re-issue, go to the BGO records site.

Bernie Treats

2009-07-25T12:05:00.001-07:00

I added a new section to the discography - a gospel band Bernie was in called Ever Call Ready. He sang lead on four songs from that album: River of Jordan, Rule Over My Soul, God Loves His Children and Boat of Love. Visit the song pages to download those songs (the album is no longer in print). Alternatively, you'll find them on the Fun Stuff Audio page if you scroll down.

By special request, I've also uploaded the Eagles performing Earlybird on the BBC in 1973.
