Earle, I picked up this clear vinyl D.I.Y. album that you did some work on back in the early '80's and I'd sure love to have you sign it. Can I mail it to ya with some return postage? Thanks, Sandy
I wanted to share the 26 second video ad I made for Barack. It's creative, and it may be the only Obama ad in the world that has a pie in it. It's part of the MoveOn. org "Obama In 30 Seconds" program.
Hello Earle, from Austin TX USA. It is great to be here with you and the gang. Your musical contributions are much appreciated...thanks for the friendship!
hi..is this Earle? I have been a big fan of your work as a producer and an artist since the early 80s. I have the single of "Mau Mau." That is one of the greatest songs of all times in my opinion! Paul
A fan of, Elevators! Any website for them? Good record, great production. Even better song writing. The single that never was: Stick Ball Kids. Maybe you could upload?
