    Such a gift for the season, is surely worth a word or six, wouldn't you say?

      That sounds probable as there was a connection between Larry Wallis of the PF and Wreckless Eric in the form of Stiff Records...

      Merry Christmas!

    I had the great pleasure of seeing Eric perform with Amy Rigby at a house party gig in Somerville, MA. Simply wonderful.

    Can't wait to hear this.

    In a strange coincidence I was listening to Mr. Wreckless earlier this Xmas morning (and was also inspired to look up his Wikipedia entry).

    Thanks again!
