As a relative new-comer to Mudcat, I, too, would like to hear some of the music from the various 'catters. Of course, as a co-host of a folk music radio show, I have an additional motive. And as an acquaintance of Jerry, Ruth, and the members of the 'Messengers, I can attest to the fact that he is just as fine a fellow as he is a song writer/performer! And he is a fellow Lonnie Donegan fan---a high complement, indeed!
    In an exchange of emails with Art T., he and I decided it is time for Jerry to produce a CD of his own material, and I gather from a comment or two above that there might be a 'Messengers CD in the works, as well In either case, I better hear about it so I can get a copy when it/they come(s) out.
    If any of you who are attending this thread want to send CD's with an excellent chance for air play, contact me by PM and I will supply an address. You can check out my program at www.yourfolkconnection.org. And, boy! Would I love to have a Mudcatter CD with all of you on it!
      Hi, Jerry and Ruth!

Big Jim - the mudcat CD turned into a collection of 5 CD's - Collectively they are the mudcat 'Blue Plate Special' (with a supplemental 'Blue Bottle Special' that was done in honor of Max's daughter)

Ordering info for the Mudcat CD collection can be found here

Thanks, Jim: Always good to see your name in here. I have the equipment to record the Gospel Messengers, and a new CD of my own, and plenty of material. It's more a matter of trying to get us all together to do the recording. We're retired, so we don't have any spare time any more...

You'll surely get a copy of either, if we ever get them done..
