April 21, 2008 - If Garth Brooks can do it, fellow Oklahoman Joe Diffie can pull music out of the vaults, too.

In a move akin to Garth's release of the album The Lost Sessions, Joe Diffie went through the more than 100 songs he's written and started releasing them online in a series he calls "basement tapes." They can be heard on his website or his MySpace page for free, and downloaded for 99 cents.

"Like most artists who have been as lucky as I've been to have such a long career, there are many songs I love that have never made it onto any of my records," Joe says. "I've decided to make some of my favorites available for my friends and fans to download. I'll only leave them on the site for a short time; then I'll replace them with more."

Last night, Joe's MySpace page featured "I'm Holdin' On," "Til Death" and "Tapestry Of Heartaches."

Even as Joe's been dusting off the old recordings, he's also been working on another album of new material. The CD is reportedly close to completion.
