Speaking of The High Strung who are a still active despite basically settling back into the Detroit area. I was aware of their Address Unknown album that came out in 2023, but today learned about a 20 year old Lost Album that was released in 2022.  Prior to recording their first proper album "These Are Good Times" they recorded an album as a sort of warmup exercise which sat unreleased until it was found in their archives of stuff during the pandemic.

Wow - I haven't thought about The High Strung in nearly 20 years. I had no idea they were still around, much less so productive.

Since they primarily stick to FaceBook I rarely see what they are up to and I forgotten that the main guy Josh Malerman was a published author whose book "Bird Box" was made into a NetFlix movie.

Upgraded to the hardback edition which is packaged like an old 78 rpm album

I find a lot to like in these albums of standards by Bob.

Hearing Bob tackle the great American songbook like when he sings “As time goes by” interests me.
