A friend sent me a link to this interview/performance. These two played with so much feeling and emotion. It was a wonderful performance of Somewhere from Westside Story. The interview was very interesting, too. I can't describe how well they played. It sounds like they may be working towards a CD. Boy, wouldn't that be great?

Thanks for your kind words, Ray. Tommy and I happened to be in Seattle at the same time. When I mentioned that to Jason Verlinde, he got us down to the Fretboard Journal office for a live chat. We are at work on an album of love songs from all styles. So far we've got Leonard Bernstein's "Somewhere" Hank Williams' "Cold Cold Heart," Billy Joel's "Lullabye (Goodnight My Angel)," and The BeeGee's "How Deep Is You Love." We've got several others "in-progress." John

John, that's good news about the CD y'all are working on. The songs you mentioned are all ones I enjoy. I was hoping to hear that was coming. I'm looking forward to hearing it. Take care,
Ray
