Both Syl and Betty were mysteries to me before this century. Betty was a favorite ‘discovery’ for a lot of music bloggers. It’s entirely possible to live a life immersed in music and still miss a few great ones

I still think the Fuzzy Glove Hour should be next renamed "The Kelly Jones Show".

I've thought about it more, and I think the "(featuring Ken and Andy)", so Kelly can keep them in line better.

Oops. Editing error.

I think the "(featuring Ken and Andy)" part should be left off, so Kelly can keep them in line better.
