This afternoon I listened to two new CDs and they both sound fine.

Gary Koonce has one out and so does Jim Brannigan. Beautiful voices both. Good material. I got a real kick out of Jim's liner notes and his voice. Good tenor.

Gary has a more formal approach to the traditional material he does, but that's fine, too.

Kendall, there will aloways be those who bitch and complain about whatever a performer does. Sometimes it just plain jealousy on their part. In a word, f**k 'em. However, the advice about mixing and mastering given in an earlier post is good advice. Take it. Hell, why do so many people want perfection? Ain't ['damned good' enough? Sheesh!
