I was Music Director at the time and knew about many of the local bands and players, but had never heard of Jay. He was playing lead guitar with local country rockers Steve Pride & his Blood Kin. Steve's band was better than average and were worth checking out, but when Jay started playing, it was clear that he was operating on "another level". This was probably summer '92. I wasn't too surprised when a few years later I found out that he was going to be playing the then preeminent local rock club "The Blind Pig" as a member of Wilco. I was working nights and couldn't get the time off to see the show, but arranged an interview with Jeff & Jay for one of our djs, and remeber that Jay did most of the talking since Jeff was feeling grumpy and bored. Gonna have to catch up with Jay's recent recordings, thanks for offering up the tracks as a starting point.
