Another Thing: the Title of this Blog

is a shout-out to Sweet Honey In The Rock, the sistahs from whose "I Believe" on Sacred Ground the line is taken, to Brother Arnold down by the Riverside, (do you want a plug here, AT? heh.) who introduced me to their work, all of which, in its many glorious facets, is highly recommended,

"...I'm here, still running; I believe", a rich line to me, as I hope will become apparent if "this thing" live.

I'm more in a Robert Johnson or Howlin Wolf frame of mind tonight, I think. GMT2218 20.01.08

This is the best blog in the universe. Everybody else's blogs are crap compared to this one. Love the swans.

That's my favorite Sweet Honey song, JohnieB.

Thank you for the King story, too. I'm glad you started writing here.

Excellent, Kristin; the whole album is so good, as is all their work.

Prayers for your swift and complete recovery.
