Thanks! … to all of you who have played my CD, You Really Had To Be There, in the past month. It has been exciting to see it pop on your lists all around the world! It has been gratifying that you have liked several different songs: funny stuff, sad stuff, political stuff. Particular thanks on this list to Arthur, David, Eddie, Gerd, Jan, Jenny, Mark & Rich. I hope others will give it a second listen too! Happy holidays …
