BiTS and Pieces: Stuff and occasional nonsence

First off, this will be a regular place to find out stuff about BiTS and the growing BiTS team. We now
have well in excess of 300 subscribers and by the standards of online publications, the involvement
of those folks is very high. BiTS gets bigger practically every month and we have just added Stan
Cockeram of the Riversaide Blues Band to our group of reviewers: Welcome Stan! Papa John Livermore,
is our assitant editor, and has also taken on the task of finding videos for your monthly viewing delight.

We are over the moon to have the thoughtful reviews of CDs produced by Norman Darwen, Graham
Harrison, Brian Harman and occasional contributions from erstwhile editor of BiTS, Bob Pearce. We
are delighted that Ms Lawerence Lebo in LA reports regularly on a wealth of things from the USA, and
finally that we can revel in the sometimes eccentric behaviour of bluesmen Buddy and Hopkins from
the talented pen of Jason Nocera. Thanks to all y’all.

We are about to launch a FlipBook alternative to the scrolling version of BiTS that has been in place
for sometime. It seems not to be everyone’s cup of tea, but check it out, you may never know.

Sometimes some errors creep in, and here we will try to issue corrections and occasisonal apologies
when that happens. In the February column by Lawrence Lebo, the pictures
embeded in the text were erroniously indicated to have been taken by
Lawrence. She does take some great pics, those were not hers. They must
now be designated as ‘photographer unknown’. Mea Culpa (Ed)

In an interview, the pic on the right was captioned “Bob (Hall) when he
wore a younger man’s clothes.” It is not a picture of the Bob Hall who was
the subject of the article, but of someone else of the same name! Mea Culpa
