William Elliott Whitmore
Any love for my favorite artist from my home state of Iowa (slim pickings I know)?
I really think he would fit in great in the Third Man blue series.
I could see Jack playing drums on mutiny:

Caught WEW here in Indy last year. Small club, practically empty, I sat right in front of him. That cat's the real deal.

Re: William Elliott Whitmore
Saw him in Los Angeles a few years back and I was impressed. I'm really surprised he hasn't gotten more traction. I'm going to keep my fingers crossed that Third Man finds himdylnfan wrote:Caught WEW here in Indy last year. Small club, practically empty, I sat right in front of him. That cat's the real deal.

Re: William Elliott Whitmore
Looks like he'll be at the Americana Music Festival in Nashville on September 18th, at Third Man Records. Could my dream of a WEW record on TM come true? I can always dream.

A WEW blue series would be VERY high on my TMR wish list.gst510 wrote:Looks like he'll be at the Americana Music Festival in Nashville on September 18th, at Third Man Records. Could my dream of a WEW record on TM come true? I can always dream.

Re: William Elliott Whitmore
No doubt. WEW is the only artist I'm a completest on (first pressings vinyl anyway). Hmmmm...perhaps I should post my ISO now!avrate wrote:A WEW blue series would be VERY high on my TMR wish list.gst510 wrote:Looks like he'll be at the Americana Music Festival in Nashville on September 18th, at Third Man Records.

I glad he's going to be there. He seems to be a good fit for TM, and definitely deserves the exposure.

Re: William Elliott Whitmore
Still one vinyl edition missing from my collection, probably some of the cd's he's been selling from the trunk of his car, and the book/cd collaboration set. Got to enjoy the chase. And I'll find them, sooner or later.
Crossing fingers for a TMR recording while he's in Nashville, and hoping for some vinyl to come out of it.

Re: William Elliott Whitmore
Yeah I'm actually missing the After The Gold Rush set. The 7" single artwork is for sale, but I believe it was ~$3,000 when I inquired, so I'm sure I'll never own that. I don't collect CDs, but I do have his "demo" set he sold early in his career. I got it off Ebay years ago and I've never seen another for sale. What albums are you missing? I may have an extra.avrate wrote:Still one vinyl edition missing from my collection, probably some of the cd's he's been selling from the trunk of his car, and the book/cd collaboration set.
