Dear Roy, Greetings from Peru, Illinois. Things are fine on our end--at least when I'm listening to those wonderful cassettes of your vinyl LPs. Thanks so much for doing 'em for me.

Yep, you have left some wonderful musical artifacts for the edification of those lucky enough to find your recordings here at the doorstep of the new century. Damn it man, you've got so very many of us absolutely KNOWING that you're gonna be hale and hearty and real quick. Our son, Chris, just married Shannon---and they send best wishes to you from their place in Chicago too. Right at this moment, I'm downing a shot of Glenlivet after holding it high with you and Elaine in mind and hoping for wonderful things for you good people---and very soon!

Send me an e-mail that things are indeed looking up & it'll make my whole month of September.

Love to you both,

Art
