I think we're going to have to forget about the radio and just go back to word of mouth

Middle School Moment Vol. 1
I'm cheating a little bit: I may have actually been in elementary school when the Sam Phillips smash "I Need Love" hit the airwaves. But it wasn't until sixth grade, a few years after it's 1994 release that I remember humming along to her haunting vocals on my way to school. Back before I owned my own extensive record collection, and in the midst of branching beyond my parents' taste, there was a lot of radio in my life. Mostly crappy, but some quality. Sam was one such serendipitous experience. I still love this song as much as I did 10 years ago.
Just a few words honored guests... MP3s or MP3 links are posted for sampling purposes only, and therefore are only available for a limited time. If anyone needs a link removed, email me at lcruz09@cmc.edu, and I will remove it immediately.
If you like what you hear on Umbrellas, I encourage you to support these worship-worthy artists by buying their tunes, merch, and all-out stalking them if a restraining order should not prevent you.
If you are in a band, or represent an artist looking to get a little free hype/promotion, feel free to e-mail me your tracks as well. I'm all ears.
