That brings the bill back up to $50 Alison.

Tursacan has 2 CDs in fact.

They're not, however, distributed by a multinational record company. Indeed, our operation is quite the reverse.

And now we touch on the internet and music distribution.

Nowadays having a CD is only part of the package. And I must confess the PR, the marketing, the merchandising, the promotion, have very little appeal for me.

For me it all gets back live to performance and quality music and quality instruments and sounds. A CD or an MPEG of a performance is like a photograph of a painting.

There is nothing that can beat all that loud breathing and face scrunching, and those magic moments where the piece of music takes on a life of its own.
