The extraordinary creative partnership of New Haven, CT duo Kath Bloom and Loren Connors has haunted psych-folk fans since the early 80s. Kath taught herself guitar during shifts as a janitor at a New Haven cemetery, while Loren's free-form idiosyncratic style had been developing since the late 60s. Between 1981 and 1984, the duo recorded two live and four studio albums, mostly self-released in tiny quantities. Early on, their music mixed folk and blues traditionals with a hand- ful of Kath's vulnerable, moving originals. By the later albums the songs were all Kath's - her fragile voice and subdued finger- picking set against Loren's abstract but always supportive playing. Together the duo created a sound almost impossibly emotional and haunting. Kath & Loren's first two albums in 1981-82 were live recordings, released via Loren's Daggett Records label. Next came 1982's Sing The Children Over on Massachusetts label Ambiguous Records. Then Sand In My Shoe emerged in 1983 as the first release on Loren's new St. Joan label, in an edition of 200-300 copies with handmade sleeves. Restless Faithful Desperate and Moonlight followed in 1983-84, before the prodigious duo parted ways. Kath did not release any- thing again until a 1993 solo cassette Love Explosion, but then developed a devoted cult following through the pivotal use of her song Come Here in Richard Linklater's 1995 film Before Sunrise. Kath has since released three solo albums on Chapter Music (Finally in 2005, Terror in 2008 and Pass Through Here in 2015), as well as the Bloom tribute album Loving Takes This Course, featur- ing covers by the likes of Bill Callahan, Mark Kozelek, Devendra Banhart, Josephine Foster and many more. Loren also retreated from music for a period until re-emerging in the late 1980s. He is now recognised as a pioneering guitar explorer, and has worked with the likes of Thurston Moore, Keiji Haino, Jim O'Rourke and many more. After reissuing Kath & Loren's four landmark studio albums on CD in the late 2000s, Chapter has now embarked on the first ever vinyl reissues for these remarkable records. Restless Faithful Desperate was reissued in 2018, while Moonlight will be released alongside Sand In My Shoe in October 2019. Sand In My Shoe includes five digital-only bonus tracks, from 1982 live EP Pushin' Up Daisies, as well as comprehensive digital liner notes.

Great plots, lovely use of English, lovable characters.
Format: Kindle
This series is a joy to read for lovers of the English language. The characters are interesting and/lovable. My family on my mother’s side lives in Florida and growing up I was certainly subjected to the mores and traditional thinking of the South, which did not help me at all in life, so the exposure to that culture raises an exasperated smile in me. For someone like me who loves to read the fact that the books are longer than normal for cozy books makes me very happy.

This would be a terrific book even without the mystery!
Format: Mass Market Paperback
The book has so much literary merit, that it could be placed among the novels. However, the excellent mystery plot also wins it a place among the mysteries.
Haines creates characters who are memorable and vivid and places them in the Mississippi Delta town of Zinnia (I'm kind of reminded of the movie "In the Heat of the Night"). Sarah Booth is living in the ancestral home -- she is an orphan and an only child, the last of the Delaneys -- but is about to lose it, because she is destitute despite her social credentials. Her only company at Dahlia House - the antebellum house -- is the ghost of a slave, who appears in a variety of outfits and "encourages" Sarah to get to work reproducing.
In an attempt to earn some money, Sarah takes on the task of trying to get to the truth of a scandal from 20 years ago in which first a leading citizen and then the leading citizen's wife die in some very questionable accidents. THe two young offspring are whispered to have something to do with it, and Sarah's client wants to find out if Hamilton the Fifth is as bad as rumors have it. Hamilton the Fifth is a romantic interest worthy of Evanovich -- and did I mention the book is often funny?
Sarah is stirring up some dangerous memories and some deaths start to follow.
I really loved this book and can hardly wait to read the next in this series and discover what happens to Sarah.

Southern Melancholy
Format: Kindle
On the plus side, "Them Bones" delivered on transporting me to the Mississippi delta (how do you stop typing Mississippi? it just begs to go on endlessly, like banana). I was there in the South and in a small country town. Brilliant on setting, which is what I like in a cosy mystery.
The mystery itself took a while to settle in and then, well, I guessed the plot. That meant instead of suspense, I plodded through having my hunches confirmed. But if I'd been charmed, that wouldn't have mattered.
This is not a negative review, but I'm heading towards the big problem I had with the book -- and I think this may be related to the fact that I was so busy and looking to enjoy some simply, happy downtime.
"Them Bones" has humour and a southern feel, but it also struck me as melancholic. And melancholy I did not need. For others (and maybe for me at a different time) that sense of mourning and tangled history might resonate. But it was a heavy load for the plot to carry.
Three stars for a solid read.

Expect to be hooked
Format: Kindle
Great cozy mystery with characters that become friends in a story that is great 'light" reading for an escape from the usual serious stories and politics on the news. Some laughs, some scares, some regular activities to fill out the characters are in good balance for the genre.

Not Really a Daddy's Girl Any More..but can sure know how to use it..
Format: Mass Market Paperback
I have at least five of this series that have been in the TBR pile on the bedroom bookshelf..What was I thinking? I absolutely loved this first one for many reasons.One being the rich content that makes up this book, as well as the main protagonist, an Ole Miss Southern Belle, Sarah Booth Delaney, a bit of an outlier when it comes to her former stereotype in the Daddy's Girls(DG's) clique...which is what endears me to her most...never, ever typecast someone as starting out as cut from the same cloth when circumstances aide in their character development..a definite asset in this case. Independent and also in need of money to save the Family home, Dahlia House.and in no hurry to give up her independence for marriage but will consider some stops along the way..when all her former buds have married for economic security rather than love. The dot of on the 'i' is a several generations removed ghost in the form of Jitty..her great, great, grandmother's maid who provides insights and caustic humor throughout. Thrown into these dire circumstances, she latches on to the opportunity to become a Private Investigator. Add a transgender character who happens to work for a local paper in the gossip area, and Sarah Booth is off to the races. Sprinkle in an alleged, physic who is a mainstay of her life long and still successful "DG's, Tinkie, " a murder mystery, a sibling in a psych ward(comfortable of course) a sheriff, and you have all the ingredients of a good ol moss draped mystery. You gotta love it..I know I did.
