His good friend Vance Gilbert also has a new live CD out
called "Vance Gilbert Live at Somerville", and I highly
recommend it, not just because he's my friend, but because
this is the true Vance Gilbert... live and unfettered!
Not quite a 2 Cd set, but it has a couple of computer-active
cuts on the end... not to be missed!
