FUNNIEST NEW ALBUM TITLE

This from an e-mail list of upcoming releases from Sony/BMG:

KENNY G - The Essential Kenny G (Arista/Legacy).

The good news on the list is that Big Al Anderson's After Hours will be released in early March. I have the self-released version of the album, which has been out for a couple of years. In fact, I played a song on last Friday's Santa Fe Opry.

A slight quibble with the Sony/BMG announcement. It says, "These days, Al splits his time between Connecticut and Nashville where he writes with some of the best tunesmiths in Music City."

Actually, he spends some time in Santa Fe, (a place where there is no music. ) This reminds me of some Junior Brown bios I've read that never mention his misspent youth in Santa Fe.

ROUNDHOUSE BLOGGING

Once again, I'll be writing a separate blog concerning the New Mexico state Legislature.

There's not much there yet, but you can find it HERE. It's on the New Mexican's free Web site. (You have to register, but it's free and relatively painless.)

If you're a real legislative trivia buff you can find my 2005 Legislature blog HERE.

I'll still post my weekly Roundhouse Round-up on this blog just for consistency's sake.

I can't believe the session is already starting ...
