Just had a message from Carole Spires that Kris is safe and well following Katrina. He has lost almost everything he owns though and is currently somewhere in northern TX.

I avoided the temptation to ask about water damaged records for obvious reasons.

I'm sure it will be a while before he is hunting out vinyl again but great news that he's safe.

Thats good news. Who is he?

Thats good news. Who is he?

He's a big collector who I have had some nice bits from. He is also a font of knowledge particularly about New Orleans labels. I was sure there would be others on here that deal / dealt with him but if not forget I said anything

This is good news Ged.

Please remind me of his email addy so I can pass on my best as I seem to have mislaid it....

By the way Ged - did you purposely crumple up that flyer before scanning it for you avatar, or did you pick one up from a beer soaked table at the end of an event??????
