Richard Dobson / Sergio Webb / March 2010

Sergio has played with Pinto Bennett, Gail Davies, Tish Hinojosa, David Olney, and yours truly with my old State of the Heart band. He has recently released two excellent CDs of his own.

Originally titled "Poor Richard's Newsletter", this series goes back to Galveston Island in the late 1970's. Some of the original pieces were printed in Peter O'Brien's Omaha Rainbow,an English fanzine devoted to independent music.

Published three or four times a year, one of my back burner projects is to edit these with a view towards making the entire collection available.
