The CD sounds great. I picked up three of them Friday night.

Are they selling the CDs at Sneaky Beans? I’ll be by there tomorrow…

Yeah! They’re up on the front counter. 14 professionally-produced, recorded and mixed songs by talented Jackson musicians for 8 bucks. Can’t beat that!

Coolio. I will grab one tomorrow before my meeting!

Just had to come back and say how much I am LOVING this CD. It is the perfect soundtrack here just a few days before Christmas. Good job to everyone who had a part!

Mississippi native Donna Ladd and partner Todd Stauffer founded the Jackson Free Press in 2002 in the capital city. The heavily awarded local newspaper did many investigations heralded across the state and nation and served as a paper of record due to its diversity, inclusion, in-depth reporting and deep connection to readers and dedication to narrative change in and about Mississippi. In 2022, the nonprofit Mississippi Free Press, founded by Ladd and JFP Associate Publisher Kimberly Griffin in 2020, purchased the journalism assets and archives of the Jackson Free Press. A Google grant through AAN Publishers enabled Newspack's integration of the JFP archives into the Mississippi Free Press website to become part of a more searchable archive of recent Mississippi history and essential journalism.
