Great Dream Franck!! Congratulations for your new CD. How Deep is The Ocean is amazing... I wish you very much success. Un abrazo desde Barcelona. Rosa
J'espère que tout va bien. Ça y est, le nouvel album est dans les bacs (expression que l'on ne dira plus très longtemps, je le crains !!) depuis le 26/10... ... et je n'en suis pas peu fier !!!
Hi Franck, thanks for adding our first comment! We love your disc 'Out A Day'. Our drummer, Jay Epstein (who has out a couple of CDs featuring pianist Bill Carrothers), is good friends with Dre Pallemaerts - small world. Keep being your wonderful creative self!
Hey Franck ! Comment c'était les retrouvailles au caveau de Delle ? Je suis très content que tu aies été programmé là bas...souvenirs, souvenirs...fais signe quand tu passes vers Bordeaux, on se prendra un bon petit rouge, ou deux ;-)) Amitiés
