Anyone know anything about American Media Services?

Are they associated with American Public Radio? All I know is I tried your link and they said they'd never heard of Freddy Clarke.

They should do some Googling or just follow <this link>. He's got six beautiful albums of fantastic guitar work, along with some world-wide support!

He also was featured in the <One Six Right video>. They used track 1 and 7 from the "Images From the Sky Woven by Strings" album.

Don't know about American Public Radio, or whether they are associated. Sorry. I'm just full of non-information tonight.

I'd never heard of Freddy either. Good guitarist.

BTW, theradio hasn't heard of the Limelighters or Red Grammer or Mike Strickland.

Kimmer: Check out the American spelling.... Limeliters

I've now got them doing a live version of Hard, Ain't It Hard... only other track it seems able to find, though, is "This Land" ("When I first came to this land, I was not a wealthy man...")
Kingston Trio are on there too.
Seems a bit random - after searching for Limeliters several times it seemed to find only those two tracks and after that we seemed to get random selections from The Folk Channel; Hoyt Axton, Buffalo Springfield, Tim Hardin.

New Christy Minstrels ("Downtown").... hardly what I'd call folk! Still, there is an invitation to sign up for beta, so they may welcome suggestions.

Drats, that my auto fill in spell checker thing. Thanks ... I'll go check it out again tomorrow.

Earlier I tried Ella Fitzgerald and they said not found, and then when I tried again later suddenly there was Ella. Go figure.

Yep, American Public Radio is part of American Public Media, to wit:

<Here's their main home page.> I still don't know what that web site has to do with American Public Media, however.
