That's the right answer, Charley. Sandy's a bit behind in updating the website, but the CDs are available. Besides, when you call Folk-Legacy, you get a bonus -- a conversation with Caroline! Give it a try, Dani!

Dave, The Boarding Party is not actually "still together." They haven't done any performing for ten years or so. Jonathan's illness, Tom's career and location change, and several other factors combined to bring their performing days to an end. Jonathan passed away last February, Tom is now an Anglican priest in southwestern Virginia, and KC is living in New Orleans. Bob Hitchcock and Dave Diamond were both original members of the group, but left it quite a while back, though they both appear on this recording. They are both still based here in the Washington area. "Too Far From the Shore" was actually recorded a number of years ago, and a whole bunch of other circumstances, which I won't bore you with, caused the interminable delay in releasing it. Part of the problem involved getting the album notes (an important part of any Boarding Party recording) written, a task which fell to me when Jonathan became too ill to do it.

Anyhow, it's done now, and it's really fine! I hope you all will enjoy it!

Cheers, Nancy
