Hi Gardi -

Roll & Go also has a new CD "Rolling Down to Sailortown" that should be out in final form after the first of the year. I'm hoping to get info on that on their website by early January - not sure when the CD will be officially released as it does take some time for printing, and there's one song they might decide to re-record.

R&G does use a professional sound engineer to record and master the songs - there are 5 people with up to 4 instruments at a time, which is a bit overwhelming for amateur folks like me! They did the recording for both CDs in a local church - the sound engineer was willing to travel, and it was cheaper to bring him to Maine than to put the group up in the Boston area.

Charley and I do record his personal CDs in our home studio (his web site with snippets of the songs is at http://home.gwi.net/~ipbar/), recording direct to computer and doing the mastering using Cool Edit Pro (which has been bought out by Adobe and become Adobe Audition - which is quite similar, but I'm comfortable with the older program so I rarely use the new one).

If you have any specific questions, we'd be happy to try to answer them - but it is a busy time of year, so if you don't get an answer in a timely fashion, please remind us.

Thanks!
