Here is what Anna-Louise Jackson from Medill Reports - Chicago, had to say in a March 2008 interview.
"Michael Scott O’Donnell knows all about the recession blues. In the 1980s, the Boston area singer and songwriter penned the folk song, “Recession Depressin’ Blues” to capture some of the sentiment in the economy. The song tells of a notion that the grass is greener elsewhere, but O’Donnell said he learned otherwise." - Medill Reports - Chicago,
Here is what Alfred Nesser from Harmony Hill Musical Productions has to say about Michael,
"Michael is a strong organizer and the backbone of many venues. He works a regular job and runs the open mike at Borders Books every 3rd Friday of each month. He also helps produce a televised open mike over SATV the 3rd Monday of every month. A strong solo and lead guitarist, his style and performance are very down-to-earth Americana tradition, and he also does well as a background musician and accompanist. He has a CD available, and our favorite selection is Recession and Depression Blues. He is a regular at the Topsfield Fair. (CD on file)"
