Church Street Blues

Theories have involved enormous seas, flooding, structural failure, shoaling, and combinations thereof.

We heard Tony Rice's cover from his delightful, no, great album, 1989's Church Street Blues.

Before that, Rory Block's cover of Titanic, When the Great Ship Went Down.

Long before Gordon Lightfoot told the story of the Edmund Fitzgerald, American singers were doing much the same thing with another great maritime disaster.

Rounder was the label I dreamed of being on as a kid.

I mean, that is the album that the label that released Church Street Blues and all of the Allison albums I loved.

I used to draw the Rounder logo on the back of fake CD covers as a kid.

I loved doing art and I would like, you know, make up fake song titles like this is my record, you know.
