9/25/2007 Dig Up The Roots
Today local accordionist, band leader collector Dan Newton brought in music by, compiled by or illustrated by Robert Crumb. From Crumb's 1970's band The Cheap Suit Serenader's to the actual recordings that inspired them (from the hand lettered cassette tapes made by sent to Dan by Crumb) we heard some wonderfully delightful music. The tapes Dan brought in have great names:
Putting The Cheap Suits To Shame
Shake Your Dogs
Steppin' Out
