A couple of recent acquisitions of Americana CDs has led to the necessity to downgrade a couple of burns to downloads to free up some space. Yes, the Blue shelves are creaking at the seams.
The first to get the chop is Where The Killers Run an album by the band Viarosa from 2005 on the Pranoia Records label. They are described as Alternative / Indie and Folk. It is quite possible that I confused them with Glasgow Americana band Vera Cruse

The second one being culled is definitely a case of mistaken identity. Bought by mistake by my pal Gordon Marc Olsen, formally a guitarist with Seattle trio Sage and who has worked with Mark Lanegan, was confused with Mark Olson of Jayhawks fame.
Had the E been replaced by an O it would still be on the shelves!


Regrettable but easy error to make, CC. Sometimes our excitement at what we think is a find speeds up the mind and makes everything cloudy. That’s how I end up with multiple copies of the same album. - Brian
