Hello again Brett. Good to meet you & your lovely family on the beach today. What a surprise! Just listened to and enjoyed our music. Have a listen to Count to Fire sometime. I will try to get the Lenoard Cohen tribute(?] if I can. Cheers
I'm not goot at this so you may get 2 comments as something odd happened to the last try. Thanks for yours - sure I've got good taste cost I've chosen you! Used to love listening to you in St Aus - I seem to remember we have the same birthday too - 2lst March? Unfortunately not the same year - as is obvious from my profile! Must get to come to one of your gigs with J & D sometime. Meantime - how about checking out my grandson Will "Count to Fire" Plug plug... Anyway I'll keep on listening to and enjoying your music. Cheers. Val
So very kind of you, Brett, to say that - I really do appreciate it, thanks, especially coming from you. Goodness, if anyone knows a thing or two about roots, and draws on them to fantastic effect in their own music, it's you. I still think I'm not Sorry is absolutely beautiful, and great to hear Time Flies on here too along with other classics. But you've got a whole guitar caseful of songs equally as good, as anyone who's ever heard your albums or seen you live will know. Hope you have a great time at the festival, by the way.
