Sounds Like	Well, trying not to sound too arrogant here is quite difficult isn't it? I am aiming for a keyboard sound which is modern with not too many notes, kind of angular at times, voice expressive but matter-of-fact, listen to my tunes and make up your own mind!
Record Label	Soon I hope, that's the idea!
Type of Label	Major

Lacy M. Robertson	Jul 29 2007 5:53 PM Howdy Wendy, Long time! Saw your new default photo & had to stop by, :o) Very cute! I guess you just put "I Fall in Love Too Easily" up, I couldn't get it to play all the way through, but, so far, so good. I'll try it again in a coupla days. So, how is the non-smoking hellhole goin'? They are doing it to Tennessee October 1, grrrr. But, at least private clubs & places with three employees or less are exempt, such caring nannies we have. XOX, Marlon
