I recently requested this one and Mr. Gans was kind enough to make it available for streaming. This was one of the first hours I ever remember hearing, and having misplaced the tape years ago, I thought I would never hear it again.

I recall how cool it was to hear the mix of fans explaining their professions, and how diverse we can all be. The music is great also, my personal favorite versions of Easy Wind, BIODTL, and Cumberland Blues. Unfortunately, I can't listen right now because of...'well, this job I got'.

By the way, I do Purchasing and IT for a flooring company in Louisville, KY..what's your gig?

This job I got ....
