From ‘The Wooden Jam Band’, to ‘The Dixie Flyers’, to ‘Rural Retreat’, to ‘Mudd Salad’, to ‘Blackwell’, to ‘Snuffy Jenkins’, and now, proud to say, AMS. It’s been quite a ride this 50 years. More music to come.    Special thanks to my good friend Hermie. Your love of music and generosity made it much more.

Thanks for all of it.
