Subject: RE: Help: Mike Jordan (Lazy River, Sweet on Sugar
Hi, I have searched for years to get copies of Mike's music. I was actually at his last performance at what is now called Big A's in St. Charles the night he passed away. A few years ago, I went to Big A's and asked if anyone knew how I could get his music knowing I would be lucky if anyone knew what I was talking about. (This was not my first attempt) I met a girl who said she had Indian Summer, Through the Window, and some other live recordings of his. She said if I would bring CD's to the bar, she would pick them up and record them for me and I could pick them up at a later date. I don't remember her name, but she did it! I have CD's she burned for me from her computer and I have it in my iTunes library. I feel fortunate to have any of his songs. One of the things Mike said during his last performance was that he was going to take a break for a few weeks and go to Alaska because his sister was getting married. He said if anything ever happened to him, she would probably be the only one who had his music. He never made it to her wedding and I always wondered if she would share his music. Obviously, she wasn't the only one who had his music since I was lucky enough to get some of it.
