Mr. and Mr. Skallander...
I love your album a lot - just received it this morning, with no postmark and a British stamp?? How did that happen - maybe you have friend in England who has a secret supply? Anyway, I instantly liked it....I love the vox and the harmonies - so Beach Boys a la Pet Sounds in places, and Art Garfunkel, with that understated beauty, and I like the way it doesn't do what you expect it to do...always a good sign in my book. Also, beautiful packaging...Thank you so much, and if you're ever playing in England let us know!
