Folkworks  A great place to learn what is going in the traditional folk scene.

Elderly Instruments  A great music store for CD's, books, strings, and traditional folk instruments, as well as the standard gear we all love.

Lark In The Morning  Same as above with the exception of "standard gear"

Forgotten Films  Great old movie site offering very hard to find movies on DVD, "Mississippi" starring W.C. Fields and Bing Crosby.  Prices are very attractive.

Rennsongs  Mike Renneker's site.  Some darn good songwriting

Smart Loops    Nice drum/percussion loops for music production.  Tell Frank I sent you.

Freak Beat Records    Boy Say's new "record" store. Bob's knowledge of the recorded music biz is amazing. I am sure he can get anything that is in print.

Pat Flynn    Check out Pat's music and his biography. It has been quoted that "Pat Flynn changed the face of Bluegrass guitar". Be sure to check out Pat's new flatpicking instructional DVD at Homespun Tapes

Rich Severson's Guitar College    If you play guitar you must check out Rich's courses and the DVD magazine he produces.

Colin Goldie and Overton Whistles    As some of you know I am learning to play whistle and low whistle. I played a wee bit on "Walls", a track from the new Cody Road CD "Driven". If you want to get a really great whistle contact Colin. He is currently crafting the great Overton whistles in his shop in Germany, longing for a few minutes to practice his pipes.
