Hey Riza! I don't know about the Coconut, really ;-) Last time I had a coconut it was giving me the runs badly... But what about some music? I really enjoyed the CDs you gave me and also the little session I was able to witness in your studio... We should come up with something!
I contacted Goethe again, but got no reply...

Dear Friends,
Well, it's been six months since my abdominal surgery, and finally the music is starting to flow again. I've written two new songs "Bridge Of Shadows" and something a little different for me called "Looking Glass Man"...my first song using a Strat. I've never owned a Stratocaster before, was always a Les Paul guy (still am). But my wife promised me a new Strat if I just acted brave; and survived the surgery of course. I guessed the Fender would influence me in some "twangy way", but I never imagined it would be a Johhny Cash way, (not that I'm complaining, always kind of liked him). So if you get the chance, please stop by and give them a listen. All my very best to you, and thanks for being friends through some really tough times for me,
Your friend,
David

Hello My Dear Friends!
Sorry I haven't been in touch for so long, but over the winter I had major abdominal surgery, and though recovery has been slow, it has been steady and I'm starting finally to feel like my old self again. For surviving my wife bought me a new Stratocaster that I hope to include on some new songs in the very near future. I hope all is well with you and that 2009 is bringing BIG things your way. I just wanted to stop by and say I'm still alive ....literally!
All of my love and the absolute best to you and yours,
David England

Kita dari MPB Production mencanangkan rasa semangat dan tanpa henti untuk membuat acara "indie".

Kami butuh dukungan dari kalian, untuk mengisi acara yang akan kami buat nantinya.
Karena kita disini saling membutuhkan.

Dan itulah keterikatan sosialis teknlogi myspace yang sedang kita bangun ini.

Dukungan media partenrpun sangat berperan dalam proses meningkatkan brand awareness dari band itu sendiri.

My first Cd "Blue Like A Jazz Note" has just been released and is now available for purchase from my site. This album represents the culmination of years of hard work and a dream that has been alive in me from my earliest days. It includes 15 great jazz standards by some of the world's greatest composers. I hope you'll come and have a listen.






Thanks for the support!
