A few weeks ago Jarrett McCall came on Musical Musings with an alphabet. His picks from the #USAtoZ challenge on X — American bands, one per letter, all from the 1970s — ran to eleven letters, and he cheerfully titled the show USA A-Z (Missing Some!). Well, a title like that is a promise, and this week Jarrett is back to keep it. Volume 2 opens with eight of the missing letters in a row, and once again the alphabet does the programming for us, so the hour lurches gloriously from Harlem to Indiana to a Jacksonville bar-room.
