I've just moved to chicago for a year, where AaronKJ lives. . .sadly,
I left my copy of this album:

back in Cincinnati, so I can't play it for him. Sadly, because I think
it says a lot in the accordion's favor.

By the way, this is a great label, though obscure. this

like it, or shit a brick . . . .
