Just a note...

I'm a big fan of Derek's Daily 45.

Over time, Derek's sent me searching for quite a few records. He's always offering up something interesting....in fact, something interesting every day [duh].

Honestly, I can't help but be influenced by what he does. Not only is he a nice guy, but the whole tone of the blog reflects an infectious enthusiasm for the music. If I ever manage to do a tenth as well as Derek in expressing my own enthusiasm, then I'll consider myself a success.

Derek has been kind enough to link to this blog....he's the first to do so. I am very touched. Thanks hon. I'd give ya a kiss if I could and will try to return the favor as soon as I have the time to do so [i mean to do a whole list].

While I'm at it, I should also thank my pals for the kind emails. Truth is, I have an ulterior motive in setting up the blog. Maybe now ya'll will stop pestering me for copies of my records.
