Subject: RE: Bruce Murdoch CD-Matters of the Heart
Ron, I absolutely agree with everything you said about how we all can provide help, tips, contacts, and encouragement to Bruce to help him market his CD.

And in regards to your last comment about the grape kool-aid, for the record, [no pun intended], and for clarification purposes, here's a link to this fine example of Mudcat humor {humour} and witty word plays:

Why does Bruce Have a Purple Face?

That thread was started as a result of this comment that was posted by Big Al Whittle {weelittle drummer} on Bruce's website:

"best of luck with album and the site! you are the first folksinger with a purple face. I feel sure you will not let the unique nature of being purple stop your songs from being relevant for the rest of us."

-snip-

I assume that the real story is that the photographer for a performance last year that Bruce did in Quebec added a purple tint to the photograph that he took of Bruce. I guess that the photographer did this because he felt that it adds a more "arty" touch to the photograph. And some people might agree with that decision.

But if you visit that thread, you'll find that a lot of people don't buy that explanation. Instead, they offer their own opinion/s on why Bruce's face is purple.

Don't forget to visit that thread! I bet you'll find yourself chuckling at many of the comments.
