Brian Wilson, Our Prayer / Gee, Smile Brian Wilson, Heroes and Villains, Smile Brian Wilson, Roll Plymouth Rock, Smile Brian Wilson, Barnyard, Smile Brian Wilson, Old Master Painter / You Are My Sunshine, Smile Brian Wilson, Cabin Essence, Smile Elly Brown - guest Elly first came to my attention back in the late 80s when she sang with the band called Grace Pool. She's been living a life outside the music world for a while, taking time off to have a family. She's finally decided to test the waters (of the Grace Pool?) again and has just released her first solo album "Wax The Roses," a beautiful and understated collection of songs that ring true and deep. She appeared tonight with guitarists Bob Riley and Bill Derby. Unfortunately some technical glitches on my end - ghosts in the machine, an almost full moon - cut short the live performance aspect of their visit. But we had a nice conversation. Pay her a visit at www.ellybrown.net.

When last Amy last appeared on the show (back in March) we had been playing her fully realized demo album "On Second Thought" - the long overdue follow-up to her 2000 debut "Carnival Love" - for several months and wondering when some smart record company would finally sign this wonderful songwriter and release this terrific record already! Well, Nettwerk America got hip to the woman's grooves and is releasing that very same CD - with a new title, "Lakeville" - in early October. Amy comes back tonight to celebrate ... and give us the skinny on her latest attempts to find the meaning of life and true happiness via too many hours spent surfing the Internet.
