Afraid I can't chip in with any sailing comments - although I did watch the Tall Ships race starting out from Plymouth England back in the 70s, that was a breathtaking sight. I like the simplicity of your tunes and your way with lyrics and the way that you use your voice. guitar and harp are good too. hope to hear some more now that you're back on dry land. Cheers, Jet
Hey man! Sorry to hear about Guinness. He was a great bird. I have been temping at the Seattle Art Museum of late. Real high class stuff. I even talk (very) briefly with Bill Gates' stepmother occasionally (she's the director of the place). I will probably only be there one more week unless something happens, we'll see. I'm gonna try to upload a song I recorded in Nov. in San Fran. with Andre Bresee producing (you met him at one of your 4th parties...hey, the 4th is right around the corner!)..Later, MyJ PS: The Boy says "HI!!!"
Hey Tom -
Glad to have found you out here in My Space after all these years! Thanks for the note. It'd be great to catch up wit' chu. Sounds like the winds have been mostly fair for you, and I like when that happens to my friends.
Stay in touch!
