I took a drive out to the antique mall to see what Chilliwack could be found. There were two albums, the one with Baby Blue, and the one with Arms Of Mary.... I couldn't part with the $8 each, but I got the Sutherlands lp with Arms Of Mary. That is a good song, but a quick listen to the rest reminded my why I ditched it years ago. Disco drums! I prefered this version to the Everly's or the Chilliwack. I may get brave and grab one of the Chilli's when I have spare cash. rs Cornely, Michael wrote: >From: Ronald Sanchez - Career Records > > > >>I was playing Thunderclap Newman, the Reason last night and Karen said >>"who is this" Chilliwack?
