This is going to be my last entry for quite some time. I will leave all my entries and links up and active because the music should be heard, that's why it was released and recorded.

  2. That is sad news. Getting new (to me) Jim Shepard has been really great. Hope you'll reconsider. Thanks...

  3. Very sad to see you'll be stopping this great blog. I have hugely appreciated the stuff you've uploaded, and have awaited each new posting with bated breath. So much more to go, too... Hope you haven't been scarred for life by the souring of the project. Best wishes from New Zealand.

  7. You should add a c-box or something so others can add Jim related shit (interviews, photos, mp3s) in the meantime.

    Looking forward to the near future.

  9. Thanks so much for introducing me to this music - never heard of him before. Listened to V-3 while walking by the river in the driving snow yesterday. It was awesome.
