Any teasers about what will be on tonight?

From: Rick Fielding

Well, "Duckboots" aka Heather, will be at a meeting of the "Adoption Council of Canada", for most of the evening, so I'll be on my own. Actually since finding her birth mother (and a bunch of new relations) she's become aware of a lot of the problems and stigma(s) that adopted kids deal with on a life-long basis. I've suggested that we do a radio show on the subject, with appropriate songs and a couple of interviews, and have left the planning up to her. My simple-minded philosophy on ALL situations of exclusion, is that when one person gets up the nerve to tell their story publicly, others in the same boat feel less alone. And that has to be good.
Since I don't have a guest tonight, I'll play some CDs, vinyl, and maybe bring in a banjo or guitar (no tipples) and sing a few songs.

Right now listening to the "Catspaw's Rag"! Glad I finally got to hear that song! I've heard so much about it! Right now Rick is talking about the "Rag" and all the instrumentation included in it. I think he ought to work in some ocarina (aka Possum's ass) to round out the song! What do you think Rick?

Duane says it was a pleasure to hear your playing, Rick, & that he enjoyed playing along. We both think Catspaw's Rag would be a great theme song & can't wait for your new recording to be out. When? Will it be available through Folk Legacy? It was great talking to you. Sorry I couldn't think of a request under pressure. Looking forward to next time!

Thanks all. I appreciate you listening. Bbc, the new CD will be on Borealis.
I thought of re-titleing the new theme song "possum Butt Blues", but we get a mixed audience, who just might not understand. Looks like Catspaw's Rag will be the theme song for the next year. Sorry Pat, but if you hadn't gotten sick, none of this would have happened!

Rick! I was so disappointed. When I tuned in to your show I was told that I had to download RealPlayer software! By the time I found it and downloaded it, it was too late. It came zipped and I'm not sure if I can unzip it, or where I should put it so CIUT software can access it. I need to do more investigation. I should have it up by next week. I hope!!

I think I heard through the static that Heather is not there to do the engineer work tonight. The sound really is horrible tonight, but maybe it's a good opportunity for us to give Rick a hard time for trying to go it alone without Heather, although I'm sure he'd rather have her there, too.

Steve Latimer was in the studio, Joe. His sister, Susan, was the guest. We were very frustrated here, too. Bill Sables is visiting from England & we were trying to listen. Usually the show is on in the middle of the night for him. We did call Rick & chat for the minute, though; that was fun. And I tried the Mudcat chatroom for the 1st time, w/ Bill's encouragement. Bill may visit the show next week. Sure sounds like fun!

Subject: RE: That Fielding show is on tonight!
From: Steve Latimer

I have to take full responsibility for the sound. Rick had me get down on one knee, tapped me on the shoulder with a fiddle bow and dubbed me 'producer' two minutes before the show. I must have messed up, although I swear I touched nothing but the phone. It's too bad there was so much static, I know that Susan, My Girl Marilyn and I really enjoyed the experience.

Now I think it's generally accepted on Mudcat that Heather is a fine woman and meeting her after the show over a pint certainly bore that out, but what might come as a surprise to many is that Rick is a really nice guy *grin* and he sure is a fine player. Nice little session after the show. Rick played Woody on "Woody", did a few more tunes on Michael's new 12 string Laskin and his Breedlove, both are beautiful instruments. Rick knew how to get the best out of them. Swapped a few stories. Perhaps Rick should ask Rick to tell you about St. Vladimir. All in all, it was a very pleasant night. I look forward to seeing the Fieldings again, even though it appears that Heather had enough of my Producing and vows that she will be back next week.
