Western NC is full of independent music venues that were totally devastated by Helene. Help if you can. Link at the top of the article. Thanks, friends.

Helene takes toll on Asheville music scene

Helene ravaged western North Carolina last weekend, bringing devastation and destruction to homes and businesses throughout the region. This event has caused major harm to the entire area, which of course includes the music scene.

"Jazz is the big brother of the blues. If a guy's playing blues like we play, he's in high school. When he starts playing jazz it's like going on to college, to a school of higher learning." - B. B. King, born this day in 1925.

I've given away 111 free records over the last 25 months to N&G members. I'd love to send you one. Come getcha some...

In September, year two of Vinyl Me, D will come to a close. I can't believe this thing has been percolating for 24 months.

I've had a blast giving away 108 records and I hope all the recipients have enjoyed it half as much as I have.

It's too late to stop now - I'm gonna go for the triple dog dare. Or the Three-Headed Dog if you're a Roky Erickson fan.

I think y'all enjoyed the 3 new winners every month / win once in a year format so that will remain in place - spreads more love and joy that way.

It's very simple to take part in this whole fiasco - simply like this post....

"If you want to be a singer, you've got to concentrate on it twenty-four hours a day. You can't be a well driller, too. You've got to concentrate on the business of entertaining and writing songs. Always think different from the next person. Don't ever do a song as you heard somebody else do it." - Otis Redding, born this day in 1941.

"I just block out the demons. I sing. I block them away. I put my pain into my music. I paint. I make my own videos. I direct myself. No one directs me anymore. I am in charge of my destiny." - Dolores O'Riordan, born this day in 1971.

I'm giving away another year of free records beginning in a couple days. Head over here and capitalize on my unsmartness. All the cool kids are taking advantage of me. It's quite fun...

I've made the very irresponsible decision to send 36 folks a free record in the next year. Get in on this lunacy before I'm corralled to the rubber room...

"I absolutely adore and idolize women. All women. I think they are all amazing. The female musicians I've met have been far more inspiring than the male ones. Women tend to be much more creative and ambitious. I think I may have been a woman in a past life." - Robert Plant, born this day in 1948.

Michael Bloomfield, born this day in 1963 - “I was performing with Paul Butterfield and I was the hot-shot guitarist on the block, I thought I was it. I'd never heard of Hendrix...I went across the street and saw him. Hendrix knew who I was, and that day, in front of my eyes, he burned me to death. H-bombs were going off; guided missiles were flying. I can't tell you the sounds he was getting out of his instrument...
