On 9/11/11 Vic Sadot Released A 16 Song CD Titled "9/11 Truth & Justice Songs" That Is Available As His Third CD At CD Baby. His New Official Web Site Was Launched On The Same Day As Vicsadot.Com Vic's Other Two CD's At CD Baby Are The 2005 Release Titled "Broadsides & Retrospectives" A "Best Of 25 Years Of Vic Sadot Crazy Planet Band Recordings" In The Original Folk-Rock And Blues Genres And The 1997 "Comin' Home" CD Of Cajun/Zydeco And New Orleans R&B Style Songs By Vic Sadot's Planète Folle Band.
