Ah, I've started listening to the cd, Art. What a pleasure to hear more songs & stories in your smooth voice & with your gentle humor! I haven't written on the "when I first came to Mudcat" thread, but one of the biggest gifts to me has been the friends I've made & the music I've discovered. You & I have never met in person, but I count you as a dear friend--one I never would have met, except through the Mudcat. I came to my friendship w/ Sandy & Caroline the same way, as well as Rick Fielding & others too numerous to name, but dear to my heart. I have grown in my knowledge & appreciation of folk music & count it one of the great blessings of my life. Thank you & thanks to Dennis (who I've known in 2 lifetimes!) for this new gift of music!

much love,

barbara
