"If you love the coast--particularly the NC coast from the Outer Banks to the SC border towns, then you MUST own this music.I have bought at least a dozen tapes and CDs of this musical to give as gifts and everyone who gets one becomes a fan who then gives it to others.......it sums up everything good and wonderful, and threatened, about the NC beaches.And yes, there's plenty of music about the storms too."

Hey buddy, have you heard the news?

"This is a high quality musical. It's humorous, serious, and even scary - "Maco Light" is a true (sort of) story about a train engineer who looses his head. If you are from North Carolina, or visit its beaches, then you need to get this CD.The music's clever lyrics are perfect for easy listening, and will provide you with a great picture of the NC beaches. If you like this CD, maybe you should check out Bland Simpsons' other works, like The Red Clay Ramblers. It's a folk music group."Triple A don't answer calls down here, am I right?" - Who's Idea Was This Anyway (the group goes joyriding only to get their car stuck in the sand)"
