What's on this USB? And why a USB?
People mostly don't have CD players anymore, so you can plug the USB straight into your car or computer if you don’t have a CD player.

TWELVE ALBUMS, AROUND 12 HOURS OF STORYTELLING!
NEW VERSIONS OF OLD STORIES
LIVE RECORDINGS
EXCERTPS FROM TWO OF MY BOOKS
​
​
I recorded my first CD in 1999. That would be Buck Meets the Monster Stick. I recorded it in a cold and lonely studio and really did not enjoy the process. After that I tried only to record live albums. They are certainly better quality, but, still and all, some of that stuff is twenty+ years old. And some of those recordings aren't available anymore. So, here's 12 albums I recorded mostly between 1999 and 2007, with some other things thrown in, AND because some of these stories are so old, and have changed so much over the years, there are new recordings of some of the classics.
INCLUDES:
Live, 2021 concert at the International Storytelling Center recorded August 2021, with a long Skeeter and Bil tale which covers several favorites.
2021 Version of Mayhem Dressed as an Eight Point Buck
2021 version of Egg Babies
2021 version of Buck Ain't No ordinary Dog
Two 2021 versions of the King of Little Things (well, it's the same version, but one has the intro of the orgin of the story and book.)

IT'S WITH ME ME ALL THE TIME
A WWII STORY
The story on this CD is Claude Dolin’s. It is Bil Lepp speaking, but it is Claude words. In the late 1990s, award winning storyteller Bil Lepp set out to interview West Virginia veterans of WWII in the hopes of publishing a book. No publisher was interested in the stories Bil had collected, so they sat silently on his shelf for years. Known for his hilarious, award winning tall-tales, Lepp felt it was time to breath life into these more serious stories. The result is It’s With Me All the Time.
