Hey Richard, Good to hear from you so quick. At least they didn't tell Ron he played too many minor 6ths or D7#5b9's...then we'd be sweatin' this thing out!?!?! I knew about MHall and just trying to blaze my own trail when the phone doesn't ring too much...I'm getting by and lots of practicing. We'll catch up soon. My Best, Peter P.
Hello Richard, Ron and Glenn,

Hope everything is well with everyone and look forward to our paths crossing again soon. It's getting tough out there but we still have all this music being made right here and that's the most important thing...hats off to you guys!!
Your Bro' Peter P.
