Calling Lonesome Cowboy Tim
Some time back, I referred to telephone recordings made by "Lonesome Cowboy Tim". These used to run on a (secret) telephone number in San Francisco, and the story changed from time to time. The story in general was that Lonesome Cowboy Tim lived out on the prairie with a lot of critters, and they had various adventures which were very, very funny.It seems that lots of Cowboy Tim fans still remember those days. I heard from Frank Mitford from south Florida and several others. Some of them have recordings.
In an attempt to bring these recordings back to the world, I've registered "lonesomecowboytim.com", and will be putting a website up in that location. Hopefully, I'll be able to garner recordings and post them there, and perhaps some other fans would like to help with this project, so that you can return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear.
Lonesome Cowboy Tim will ride again!

I throughly enjoyed Lonesome Cowboy Tim and the Tails From The Prairie. I lived in San Antonio when I heard these stories, 1982-1983 on a Jazz station. I'd love to hear these again. They were classic, the characters, Darlen Poot (and her double wide mobele home), Lana Poot, Mean Cows; all great. I recall hearing Lonesome's last story with the last line being, "life is a long journey of going to places you thought you would never visit and encountering people you thought you'd never meet" or something like this. Hope we hear them again.
