This is new. Bear Family beat me to it by having it up on Amazon before I could announce it here. This isn't just a J&TNs anthology, although the majority of the tracks on the two CDs are J&TNs (but a few previously unheard live tracks). Of interest is "Freefall," the track I recorded for the never released Richie Podolor tribute CD and all of the tracks I recorded with Marty Tippens for a never released acoustic instrumental CD. No promises, but I hope to have physical copies available at the SG101 Convention on 4 August. Let's Rumble!!! www.johnblair.us Last edited: Jul 02, 2018 13:45:16 |

That's awesome! Though a little weird that they go with a stock surf image rather than John himself! — |

As I mentioned a few weeks ago, I'm involved with THREE very cool CDs, coming this summer, that I've been working on for the past six months. The "Live at The Whisky A Go-Go" CD (and forthcoming vinyl LP reissue), the new 2-CD "John Blair Anthology" release from Bear Family (announced today), and.....one more CD that I'll announce here right after the July 4th holiday!!! Jeez, I'm tired.... — |

Just to clarify...the new Bear Family "John Blair Anthology" is NOT a Jon & The Nightriders' anthology. The NPR release back in '94 WAS a J&TNs' anthology. But, not the new Bear Family package. There's much more than just J&TNs here. — |

Happily stumbled on original vinyl release of Whisky live at Jerry’s Records in ... Pittsburgh (believe it!).
