[mplpost] Pre-Historic Flohil and other long tooths

[Tom Coxworth]

This summer David Francy mentioned that Chris Rawlings lives near
him in southern Quebec. You may want to email him:

http://laker@abacom.com

And still with the  topic of David - anyone who hasn't seem him in performance
is missing one of our new top acoustic folk artists.  The only album I have
from Chris is 97's Soupe du Hour - guesting on it is Cathy Fink and Duck
Donald....very strange though ! no liner notes from Richard ! Don't worry
Richard we still luv ya.
