I'll be in here should you need me



Various Artists - Alan Lomax in Haiti (listen) I'll be in here should you need me, daydreaming that I am Alan Lomax in 1936 lugging 500 pounds of recording equipment through the mess of post-U.S. occupation Haiti along with my child bride and a terrible case of malaria.

But I'm not Alan Lomax, or I am in my own little way, and anyway I'm blessed to have my sweet bride of 11 years on my team through my expeditions, imagined and real. Happy anniversary!

  1. This must be Alan Lomax week. I finally saw Cadillac Records where there's a scene of Lomax recording Muddy Waters on the plantation.
