Our Songs by Holley Bendtsen and Amasa Miller
Wow, what about Threadhead's, Our Songs, the first all original CD by Holley Bendtsen and Amasa Miller, also featuring Little Queenie, Charmaine Neville, Hack Bartholomew, George Porter, Raymond Weber and Darcy Boye ? OZ has filed it under R and B, if any of y'all want to check it out...
Thanks!
Thank you, WWOZ, for supporting local artists. I really appreciate the nod to my latest CD, and I especially appreciate all the airplay it's gotten from many different WWOZ DJs. THANKS SO MUCH!!!
