All CDs $13 or less for a limited time.

For those of you that enjoyed Joe Sacco's Rude Blues Comic (available only in the Fat Possum Darker Blues) be sure to check out last Sunday's New York Times Magazine -- Comic Journalsits Reports on The Battle Over Palestanian Tunnels and Israeli Bulldozer" for those that have no idea what I'm talking about.....

Darker Blues

Joe Callicott's Ain't A Gonna Lie to You, one of Fat Possums best records fell through the cracks, we forgot to send out an announcement to our fans ordering them to "buy this damn record now."

Even though it's hot as hell we've been getting an awful lot done. Keep a look out for the upcoming release Jimmy Lee Williams, another gem from the George Mitchell collection and Charles Caldwell, a here-to-fore unknown gem from the Yalobusha/Tallahatchtie county line. Derek Jackson has been working diligently, in ways I don't understand, and has revamped website, it's got mp3s, flashing lights, everything a person could want, except a barber pole and a hooker. To celebrate the website's facelift - all CD's only 13 bucks.
