The Last Concert featured Bryan Bowers on Feb. 17. This issue features the theme Blues in Times of Pandemic, which includes an article, Blues in the time of Pandemic, 1919 — “In a few days influenza would be controlled,” by Shalom Goldman, reprinted from Informed Comment, followed by More Pandemic Blues Songs. There will be no more Concerts during the coronavirus pandemic. The Couth Buzzard is closed for the duration, but you can phone, e-mail, and place online book orders, and contribute to their Emergency Fund here. We will continue the NW HOOT as long as we have new articles to publish. We are always looking for more writers (send us your ideas and articles).
