WICKED CHARLESTON NEW COVER; TURN SIGNALS & SHELBY LYNNE



Happy to announce the new Wicked Charleston cover will be in book stores in early April. A much more appropriate cover than the original.

Has anyone other than me noticed that people who drive luxury cars (BMW, Mercedes, Jaguar, etc.) are mor often opting to purchase their vehicle without turn signals? Just a thought.

I have always been a fan of the singer/songwriter school of music. Particularly the female variety. The list of my favorite artists always will include: Roseanne Cash, Mary Chapin Carpenter, Lucinda Williams, Nanci Griffith, and the Indigo Girls. So I am now wondering HOW THE HELL DID I MISS SHELBY LYNNE?
I had heard of her of course, but for some reason I had dismissed her as a packaged country singer. And of course, she was in the early part of her career. However, I picked up her latest release, Just a Little Loving, a tribute to Dusty Springfield. Being a huge Springfield fan I bought it on impulse and the next day went and purchased two more Shelby CDs. Wow!
Just A Little Loving proves to me everything I've been complaining about modern female singers. All histronics and no emotion. Shelby is the polar opposite. Subtle singing, never screeches, almost whispering. I'm sorry it took me so long.
