Drop Me Off Downtown

A chorus of trumpet bleats seems in order to announce the launch of Pete Cherches’ Overview of Downtown Music. I haven’t had time to delve too deeply into the online project, but a cursory cruise through the sections suggests a lot of edifying material on display. As someone who lived through the evolution of that scene and was a direct observer to much of it, Pete possesses the positioning to take an accurate pulse of both its development and outcomes. Do check it out and also swing by his other web home, Word of Mouth, a food blog boasting few worthy peers that appears to be on a temporary hiatus no doubt due to the auspicious launch.
