: the great stuff that Blue Goose put out.
: Now a few questions:
: Is the John Miller whose postings I'm reading
: the same one whose wrecked vinyl album I'm
: STILL playing? (Same one who played bass
: for Country Cooking? Same one who writes
: great reviews for the Old-Time Herald?)
: Who owns all those recordings now?
: I haven't seen 'em reissued on CD....are they
: available?
: Glad I found the site!

Yes, I am the same guy. Your question is kind of timely--I just found out a couple of days ago that a Japanese label called VividSound has licensed my Blue Goose albums (and the JoAnn Kelly Blue Goose album) from Shanachie, who owns the Blue Goose catalog, and is releasing them all on CD, scheduled for 8/25/02. VividSound released my last two albums for Rounder on CD last year and have also licensed my first Rounder album, "Let's Go Riding", which is Country Blues and Old Time Music. All of the CDs should be available from Amazon.com or CDNow.com. I am happy that VividSound has undertaken this reissue project. All Best,
John
