  2. Hi!

    Thanx for this one. Know most artists but LP track are "new" hears here. LUV your site (been following for years) & your WIDE variety of music. Fun stuff!
    Don't usually request but looking/collecting Canadian music, the more obscure the better. Would you happen to have any Canadian music to share?
    T.I.A.

    Cheers!
    Ciao! For now.
