Subject: RE: James Carr is dead
Fair play P.J. I would reccommend PJ.Curtis's progs. to anyone interested in Folk, R'n'B, Rock'n'Roll, Blues,Jazz,Trad, World Music etc.It was on one of his shows I first heard James Carr, many years ago. He has been flying the flag of real music against the rising tide of dross and slick marketing for twenty years or more.More often than not against an apathetic radio authority.He has also produced over 40 albums, among the best of Irish music ever produced,two which recieved awards in the U.S. Listen to him, he knows what he's talking about, a rare thing on radio these days!. God I had better stop or else people might think I run his fan club or something(LOL) Seriously though, do your ears a favour and tune in to anything P.J. Curtis puts out, you won't be dissapointed.
