David, you've outdone yourself on the Tommy McLain feature today! It's so great to learn he's still alive and kicking, in fact kickin' it hard! From 1996-2000 I was American Project A&R rep for Demon/Edsel Records and helped the label secure rights to Huey Meaux's C Crazy Cajun catalog. I commissioned two of Tommy's albums and engaged my son, John Nova Lomax to write liners. The albums we're SWEET DREAMS and THE CAJUN ROD STEWART, both came in 1999 and were released in Europe only. Elvis Costello was one of Demon's owners so this may well have been how he found Tommy's great music. Onward & upward! John Lomax III
