Yea, that is too bad, though kind of surprised they have been able to keep going so long. I've honestly only bought a couple issues over the years cause it seemed kind of a dry read with lots of good information, but not much entertainment value. Probably the only music mag that eschewed the glitter and glamor approach to music writing. But I think they are expanding their website and continuing it online. I've always been a fan of the americana.uk site which is contributor driven, so maybe they can do something like that with occasional sample discs to subscribers.

On another note, Wednesday is Cardinal day here. Playing the one and only full length that came out of the early teaming of Richard Davies and Eric Matthews in 1994, expanded and reissued in 2005 on Empyrean Records. Only $10 postpaid and they throw in the latest EP from Eric Matthews. Nice. Makes me hope that Davies finds a deal and a label to master and release his latest recording.
