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.
Forever young
