Mark your calendar, kids.

Front Parlor Ballads, Richard Thompson's new collection of acoustic originals, is due to be released August 9.

It's a damned good year to be an RT fan: new album, box set, songbook (finally), new 1,000 Years of Popular Music DVD... *glances at checking account* Aw, hell. Correction: it's an incredibly frustrating year to be an RT fan. Must...knock over...conveniencce store...

Meant to tell you: absolutely adored 1000 Years.... I was shocked to realize I knew more, percentage-wise, of the pre-1900 songs than the post-1900 songs. :)

*grin* Very glad you liked! (And impressed at your knowledge of the early stuff; I think I knew about three in that era.)

The 1000 Years show was really fabulous too...

Very much so. We got to catch it at the Egg in Albany, and I so wish I could've bootlegged it. *sigh*
