Customer Reviews
Great stuff!
I saw Otis Gibbs perform when he supported Dan Baird & Homemade Sin a year or two ago. He impressed me so much that I bought a couple of cd's - excellent they are too. However, I chanced upon these podcasts a few weeks ago and I highly recommend them to anyone with even a passing interest in modern day Americana. His guests - like Ian Hunter, Bill DeMain, Todd Snider and many more - are never less than interesting and often very funny. Well done, Otis!
Welcome back
Hi Otis - It was so good to see the podcast back, and wish you & Amy & animals all the very best in your new home cheers steve UK Northumberland oh what was the storey behind the the NEWCASTLE scenes in one of your music videos !!!
Addictive listening
