Subject: RE: Mudcatter Pam Swan's new CD!
Maybe someone can let Pam know of this one :


There's still a recent programme up on the ABC National Radio site, in Australia, that you can listen to, on Harmonic Overtone singing - re Dean Frenkel, the Guinness Book of Records holder for the longest held note (I think?!) ...

and his new book - also includes stuff on the reactions of animals to his singing ...

Cheers! R-J
