OK—I admit to being a lifelong optimist and believer in best outcomes, but THIS IS AMAZING!!

On August 2nd, Omnivore Records released "Stars In The Southern Sky" 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition 3CD Box Set by Steve Young (acclaimed songwriter of "Seven Bridges Road" fame), featuring "Honky-Tonk Man"—an album I produced for my indie label, Mountain Railroad Records, in 1975 (when?), plus 2 CDs of a live concert I recorded at Charlotte's Web in the 70s.

THIS NEVER HAPPENS!... (but it did!!)
"Stars" just made 4 different BEST SELLER charts in the UK, including TOP 10 Country and Top 5 Country Rock!! (Look out, Taylor ;-). Here's our Amazon UK Best Sellers chart rankings:
#5 - Country Rock
#9 - Country
#23 - Box Sets (CDs & Vinyl)
#145 - Top 200 CDs & Vinyl

We also received a 5-star "Editors Choice" in AllMusic!

So grateful to everyone who made this possible, especially my set co-producer and liner notes co-author, Ted Olson, Omnivore President Cheryl Pawelski, Steve's son Jubal Lee Young, photographer Bonny Kaske Holder, my wife Tigris, and my Charlotte's Web partners, Karen & Bill Howard.

and fields, we’ve been chasing tiny butterflies. There are two very similar looking species of yellow sulphur butterflies in the air right now, orange sulphurs and clouded sulphurs, but their appearance varies by individual insect and they almost never stay still long enough, or let you get close enough, for a careful inspection. So for practical purposes, it’s probably best just call it a sulphur butterfly, and move on to congratulating yourself that you left dandelions, violets, wild strawberries and other pollinator-pleasing spring flowers blooming in your lawn. Notice the buttefly’s funky lime green eyes and its extended proboscis, which the butterfly is using to suck nectar from the dandelion’s center.

Sulphur butterflies arrive early in the growing season and stay late; if the weather cooperates, there will still be a summer-hatched generation fluttering around the goldenrod in late September.
