A Conversation with Gus Cannon


Mixing for Dom Flemons

I would like to talk to Gus Cannon over a cup of tea & cigarettes. Oh, if life could be like that. Luckily I got the music and a conscientious mind to make a mix for a stranger. I wonder what it would be like to sit and have a cup of tea with Dom Flemons. The internet allows me to share this mix with people I appreciate. Making music is a wonderment. Every time I listen to the Carolina Chocolate Drops I become part of the music because, I study old-time music, collect 78's & read books about the people & things that stir my soul. Enjoy, Dom!
