Cat -

We've only archived here at Mudcat... an exclusive contract that we signed!!! I will add this one to our collection as well.

I am amazed at the number of jug bands out there. I was speaking with Jack Pignatello of the Birdies and he has been trading CD's with other bands. He has recordings of jug bands across the states and around the world, including Australia and Israel. He reports that the Israeli jug band added a clarinet for a great sound. Jack has ageed to come on the show sometime with some of these recordings and we will do a whole show on Jug band history and music.

It is great fun! By the way, the Birdies will be appearing at Boodles Opera House in Chester, NY this Sunday night.
