::: EXC quality master mono SBD. Check samples for unvarnished verisimilitude or aural morsels.

Nothing here ever commercially released to my knowledge. If I'm wrong, please advise & I'll take the offending trax offline.

CoolSonics 272 ::: Thanks to the original taper, the intrepid Fast Freddie himself! ::: Corrections welcome ::: Well, to be honest, Jesse was a gent whose first album & early demos have always knocked me out but after that my interest has always rather spotty. Anyway, he's playing a cross section of his material here, basically skipping over most of the material from "Talk Memphis", which had just been released the year before. At any rate, there seems not to have been any Jesse from the 1980s on DIME before, so this'll help to rectify that & add some more Jesse to your digital mix should that be yr inclination. Enjoy!

Kudos to Zongo for life support, Lochner for mikes&more & Fast Freddie for runnin' Video Dick's Record Emporium with the bathroom office full of tape decks. Thanks to Hanwaker (few among us can keep his pace). Mountains of gratitude to Davmar, D.White, Sanchez, Elliot, The Florida Kid, Kloiber, Zingg, JTW, Bershaw, Boston Gold, Dixon, Moore, Gough & SO many more for all that collecting & sharing... Royal thanks to The Man In The Palace, Doc Tinker, Brinkhoffs, Barely Eatin', Reel Master Gaule, Parrish & all the traders who housed me thru my music acquisition & travel years. Hats off to Brother Kent, Uncle Jake, Little Queenie (& her neighbor Frank) & his honor Ptomaine Thomas. Glasses raised to Byron for musical horizon expansion & much obliged to J & Thurston for keepin' my concert fires burnin' since my continental shift. Thanks to the Mods for keepin' DIME alive. Enjoy, share, give, spread peace. Yers truly, Knees
