Live At The Make Out Room

Just saw Chuck & the Mission Express on Mountain Stage in Charleston, WV. Huge fan. Favorite track, the one he killed on stage there. "Who put the bomp in the bomp shooby doddy bomp?" (shout your answer here)

Bloody Noses EP
by Richard Thompson
supported by 6 fans who also own “1968”
John Drumbo French from Captain Beefheart and The Magic Band worked with Thompson on two albums along with Fred Frith and Henry Kaiser. Those two French, Frith, Kaiser and Thompson albums led me to this. Also, Richard Thompson taught Hugh Cornwell (of The Stranglers) how to play the bass guitar in a band when they were both at the same school (Emil and The Detectives?). With a career spanning 50 years and playing with two of my heroes (French and Cornwell) Thompson has produced a fascinating EP.
