"James Wolff is a gifted writer and a compelling singer. The maturity of his songcraft is self-evident and his arrangements are intelligent and refreshingly understated. Some adventurous label should sign this guy. Purveyors of cookie-cutter pop need not apply. Wolff's music rewards the discriminating listener"

« 'You don't look much like a bishop, Azazello,' remarked the cat, piling sausages on his plate. 'That's what I mean,' snarled the man with red hair and turning to Woland he added in a voice of respect: 'Will you permit us, messire, to kick him out of Moscow?' »
Bei den Erdbeben, die kommen werden, werde ich hoffentlich Meine Virginia nicht ausgehen lassen durch Bitterkeit, Ich, Bertolt Brecht, in die Asphaltstädte verschlagen Aus den schwarzen Wäldern in meiner Mutter in früher Zeit.
In the earthquakes to come it is to be hoped I shan't allow bitterness to quench my cigar's glow, I, Bertolt Brecht, astray in cement cities, Brought from the black forests in my mother long ago.
Danke für die Freundschaft! Thanks for the friendship!
Thanks for becoming a friend, I really appreciate it. If you have a chance please would you listen to some of my songs, that would be cool. A comment would be great. However, if you're too busy, I understand and that's ok. Peace Love and Happiness to you. Allan
