Hi J, Thanks for the note - and the rating. I was out of commission for about 8 years - constant fatigue & inability to focus. This summer I went for TMS - Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation - and now I'm getting back in the swing. Only thing is I'm 67 now & I lost all those years - so I'm way behind. Right now I'm working to finish up two books and after that I've got another book I was writing (about 3/4 of the way through...) when all this started that I have to get back to.
Anyway - Thanks again & I wish you luck with your work.

Hey Jeff - Great to hear from you! - especially about that song, if you know what I mean (lots of words and ideas, which is not so much in vogue at present...).
I'm finally coming out of a several-year-long illness (I hope) (not life-threatening) & having a pretty good day today - which is why I'm able to get back to you. (Tomorrow I may be under the weather again - who knows.)
I listened to a few of your songs.
Loved "DODECAHEDRON."
Also "...and in her hand was a frying pan
and you know that she doesn't cook...' from "SHOULD HAVE RUN AWAY AKA: THE FRYING PAN SONG" was neat.
And "...But with all those other cows
it's just a job and nothing more..." from "My Bovine Valentine"
made me smile too.

Take care,
Karl

I've been doing the same today with your tunes. Euthenasia is a beautifully crafted song but for me the subject is just too dark. I couldn't listen through thinking of my handicapped son and what those doctors would have done... The spelling song is too cute and THat Evening Touch is divine. I see some similarities between what we do especially on a song like "In Other Words" I just think you do it better. If you want a laugh check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nON kGK1jCvo done in that conversational style.
Hope your health issues keep looking up and glad to meet you!

Hi Jeff - this is embarrassing and/or frustrating...: I'm in bad shape again today which means I'm in what my Lyme disease specialist calls a "brain fog." It's embarrassing/frustrating because this has been going on for several years now - and I just want to get back to work & I can't because my brain won't come back "online" so to speak... I'm not at all convinced that I have Lyme disease - I might be having an allergic reaction to the medication I was taking for high blood pressure. Anyway...maybe I shouldn't have responded to your comment yesterday, because here it is a new day & I can't keep up my end of things... Thanks for comments, etc. about my work. I should ask about your son, but I just can't - I'm sorry... Good to meet to you too.

Hi Hattie - Thanks very much! I'm sorry to say that I'm recovering from a long (but not life-threatening) illness. Will listen to some of your work when I can. Good Luck. Karl

Hi Karl. Well, I hope you get back to 100% soon. Don't worry about listening to my music, just tell me where I can buy My Precious One. I want to be able to listen to it outside of Broadjam. Best, Hattie

Hi Hattie - I'd be happy to send you a CD of the song, if you'll give me an address. I've also used file transfer sites once or twice - to get things to music libraries. Would that work for you? Karl

I can receive the file via Drop Box or You Send It. If it's easier, you can mail to me at P.O. Box 8065, Manchester CT 06040. I'm excited! I know my son will want it on his iPod. Thanks. Hattie

Hattie - I've uploaded My Precious One.wav to Dropbox. Will you be able to get it - or do I have to link to you some way? Also - the song was recorded by Jack Harris in Nashville; that's Jack on guitar; and Margaret Bailey singing.

Hi Karl
I think you need to make a shared folder with our names, put the audio file in the folder, and then send me an email invite. Use hattiewilcox@gmail.com. Thanks for letting me know the musicians. Open dropbox home and you will see the instructions. Looking forward to it! Hattie
