I'm pushing to do Hairy the Hipster. Any support out there? There's enough for
two full CDs..all the MacGregors plus V-Discs (the Jubilee tracks have been
issued on Hep) for one disc, and the Musicrafts, Diamonds and the odd Hip Fairy
Tales (Aladdin and one other label, I think Intro) for the second.
