After dithering around trying to totally self-finance a CD project, I've discovered a wonderful site called "Kickstarter.com," which lets people solicit backers for artistic endeavors. I have a project up that someone reminded me I haven't yet posted on Mudcat, so here it is.

Go to Bob Clayton's "Hokey-Dokey CD" and take a look at it.

I'm planning to post the songs I'm putting on it (once I finally decide, and that's probably harder than the singing and arranging and everything else), both here and on Kickstarter, and possibly a link to one or more preliminary recordings. I have several already recorded (with Dennis Cook), and plan on doing more. I think the final product will be about 14 - 16 songs (I've never been good at editing out songs I like, so keeping it short is out of the question).

So take a look and listen to the intro video song (hastily penned and recorded from my PC) and see if you'd like to encourage the project. And no, "Hokey-Dokey Music" won't be the final title, though it's likely to be a sub-title, all things considered.
