John Miller - Biding my time LP
rra:
I was at an old friend's home today. His college aged son recently started collecting vinyl so the two of them have been going out and purchasing records. He knows I play guitar so he put this on today and said "I think you'd like this one". Sounded fantastic and when I saw the album cover I was stunned - is that John Miller?????
Go to https://www.noyage.com/jm/ to see the full sized images. Had a great time listening to John's album. Really miss the magic of vinyl!
Johnm:
Hi rra,
Welcome to Weenie Campbell! Yup, that was me, a good long while ago. I'm glad you enjoyed the album.
All best,
Johnm

Old Man Ned:
This was the first album that I heard John's playing on. It was lent to me by Duck Baker who recommended it highly. It's a terrific album and completely blew me away. From time to time I sometimes think I'm getting pretty good on the guitar, then I go back to John's version of I Got Rhythm and try to play it. It soon puts me in my place :-) Seriously, there is some amazing playing on this album.
All the Best,
Ned

I wish Rounder would reissue some of their older catalog.
