The Kindness of Mudcatters often brings me to tears. So it was this past week when Rog brought home the mail. In it was a package from England. I'd forgotten that a new found friend among the Mudcat had offered to clean up my dad's Cow Songs tape and transfer it to CD. As I listened to the clear, strong, sounds of my dad's pickin' and singin'...so much better than the home-taped version, I just cried and laughed and cried some more...at the Joy of hearing my dad and at the Kindness of our own wilbyhillbilly.

Please check out his very nicely designed website at Vinyl Transfer and click on his Samples page. There you will find a sample of "before" and "after" of my dad's tape, plus there's a small blurb about him.

With what whb had to work with, he did a superb job and I am MOST grateful. His daughter and he have some great voices, too!(He also sent me a CD of them!)

So...if you have old tapes, vinyl, etc. that you want preserved, "freshened-up," scratches, etc. removed, wilbyhillbilly's yer man! He does a really thoughtful and great job, with obvious pleasure in the sharing.

Thanks, so much, whb! More proof that Mudcatters are the Best!
