Awesome blog. Love all the Arizona stuff, especially the Al Perry 7". Any chance you'll ever upload his album Cattle Crossing?

Thanks trevor, appreciate the kind words. I will ask Al if he would mind, I know he was still selling it on his old site so I don't want to take any money out of his pocket! It's a classic though!

Can you direct me to the site? I'd love to buy it if it is still available. I thought it was long out of print.

C said...

it used to be alperry.net but the site appears to be down, let me check with him!

C said...

Trevor, please send me an e-mail at azlocal at g mail.com as Al said you can contact him directly!
