Some of you have heard about this, but for those of you who haven't, Chuck Jones' new CD, The Southpaw Jones Starter Kit is being released this Friday, Dec. 3. He was kind enough to give me an advance copy and, honestly speaking, it's a great album. If you're a Chuck Jones fan at all then you've heard songs such as "Communist Girlfriend" and "White Boy Blues" (my two presonal favorites) as well as "Soup du Jour" (remixed from it's original release on the Writer's Night album) and "Her Heart's in Alabama." This is your chance to have these songs, and many others (over an hour of great music in all), to listen to forever and ever. It's also at a nice, cost-effective, way-better-than-Sam-Goody price of $10. It's no doubt that one of the qualities that draws us to Chuck's music is that no one else has ever dared to go where he has gone. . .this CD is one that cannot be matched. We here at the LU are partial to Chuck slightly because he's a Lipscomb graduate and largely because he's a LUer.
