I was introducted to Robert Ellis by Jeremy Dietz, one of my pals in Mission Spotlight.
I own two Robert Ellis albums, which I love. Just saw the Rusty Bottoms video which is both extraordinarily competent and also a sad commentary on how talented musicians are struggling to make it, even when people listen to music more than ever (but don't pay for it).
So, my mind set off in a whirl.
