Thread Name: Bobert's New CD sells out on CD Baby...
Subject: RE: Bobert's New CD sells out on CD Baby...
Okay, first of all, cynic has a point... I sent 20 to CD Baby and sent another 20 today...

Considering that I haven't (as yet) had time to send a single CD to any radio station that has blues programing and the Europeans are just getting there's and will no doubt write some reviews, I'm really happy with that.... When one considers the sheer number of folks you do mail CD Baby 5 copies and wonder why no one has ordered them, I'm extremely excited...

Plus, I been playin' now for over 40 years so I purdy much have a lot of this music stuff half figurated out so, ahhhhhhh, I kinda know what I can best do and how to do it...

I remember back in the early 70's doing coffee house folk and people coming up afterwards asking if I had an album out... Then when I found I had more time in my life for music about 5 years ago and started playin' 'round it would be the same questions, except it was CD's this time 'round...

Feels good to have this one to share and now that perfect strangers are buying it, without even seein' me perform (which is twice as entertaining as the CD, IMO) makes me feel somewhat validated as a life long folk musican...

So, according to the comptroller, about another 100 in sales and we'll be outta the red and into the black which can only mean...


.. another CD naming contest and another CD artwork contest....
