I can send you Jimmy Carter Syndrome but I have yet to come across anything else by Munly, except for physical copies from a website of his that looks to be pretty dead. As far as Slim Cessna's Auto Club, I think I've got one or two of their albums uploaded that i can send as well.

I was recently contacted by Jim Strange from the Portland Oregon band Jim Strange with the Proud and the Damned. He's been following my blog for awhile now and likes what I've been doing. He recommended me this Portland band, Ashcan Orchid and I cannot stop listening to them. Their music is just such an eclectic blend of so many different styles. Lyrically it has a lot in common with various Gothic Country bands, however the sound the rest of the band creates is so varied that it's really hard to classify. At times it's very upbeat and swing sounding, then other times it's softer, slower, and more "ballady". I'm not sure if they've released any music for purchase yet, but when they do I will definitely get my hands on it.

Hello everyone. Im glad I came accross this thread. I grew up always saying how I hate country music. Then I heard some Hank 3 and realized I dont hate country music, I hate the music that the radio calls country that sounds more like 1980s pop. I havent listened to any of these other bands mentioned on this thread other than one song by Those Poor Bastards so I have a lot of listening to do.
