The song playing under the "Lost Vegas" images this week is by "Corb Lund & the Hurtin Albertan's" from his new amazing CD called "Losing Lately Gambler" .
Ten years ago I met Corb at a magazine launch for a magazine that I had shot George Plimpton for the cover and he was doing an acoustic set by himself. I asked if if he would let me use some of his music for my first film that I was working on at the time called "Marymount Again..." . He let me use a great song called "The Oldest Rhytm" for the epilogue that I edited for the film (for free!). Since that time he has established himself as one of Canada's great singer songwriters and is beginning to break in the US with this latest album. Support him by buying his music and go see him live if he is playing anywhere near you, you won't be disapointed.
Thanks for everything Corb,
