Hey Byrd,
Sorry I've neglected my friends. I've had some intensive work to do on my song "Olivette" and I have a BoDeen song to finish now. It's called "Broke Down On The Side Of The Road." I think I'll get the pedal steel part finished today. Then we have to re-record the vocal, mix it down, master it and it'll be done.
Hope you feel well and happy! Gently, Thomas Oliver
