This list was compiled a few years ago. It doesn't include Ed Foote's
second CD, I'm
not sure the Temperamental Journey tape is currently available - but I
encourage
inquiries.And I don't know about what else is or isn't available.
Also, I suggest contacting Tim Farley, RPT and Farleys House of Music, in
Madison.
