I'm a bit uncomfortable with the "Swan Song" title. I've heard most of your recordings and you don't sound at all like a Swan.

Spaw - your copy of Diamonds In The Rough will be mailed today. Rest assured that the requisite amount of cursing and grumbling went into the making of the finished package along with blood sweat and tears up to and maybe above the price of the CD. :o)

I've had the Devil's own works getting a publisher for the new book of Maine humor. I don't think I have the energy to start another one, especially one of such personal history.

I am, however, willing to give it serious thought.
Jeri, a free copy of Maine Lies Downeast is on its way to you from Folk Legacy.It's payment for your title.

"I might consider making a tape just for you. I doubt that it would have broad interest."

Listen up, I'll accept that and when I bootleg 'em, you get half. OK, 99%, but get 'er done. I really respect your work.

I want one! (...and one of the "Diamonds in the Cellar" CD,of course.)

Seriously, you sing songs that aren't exclusive to you. The stories you have are uniquely yours. It's not just that no one else can tell them, but no one else even knows them. True, you can't steal them, but you can sure tell a story! You probably have enough so you could put a book together and you won't have to leave things out to make them fit, but it would be worth doing, IMO.

Guest999, I feel a bit silly addressing you like that because I know who you are. Anyway, I've never given that idea any thought but I might consider making a tape just for you. I doubt that it would have broad interest.

LOL!

Sandra, I'm not quite ready to announce my next project in a separate thread, but I'll tell you here that it is a double CD of me reading my book back about 20 years ago. It's renamed from Stories told in the kitchen, which was in print for over 30 years, to MAINE LIES DOWNEAST.
I expect the first delivery in about a week.

Kendall, I'm in for two. However, please let Jacqui know it's gonna be about ten days, so wait to do the CDs on my behalf.

What I would love to hear/read is you talking about your life in music. I have had the pleasure and honour of listening to your music and choice of songs for about seven or eight years now. You're a gruff old sob, but you have class. And timing.

I will admit that although you do not have the best singing voice I ever heard, and although you choose songs I wouldn't necessarily have chosen, you are truly great, because you trust and believe in the songs you do. I love your work, and because of that, I think you'd best get yer ass off the stove and do the job, else we all will miss a piece of history we should have. I mean that.

BM

PS I 'borrowed' one of your tales from the book; I mentioned on a few occasions that you wrote the tale. The applause? well, I accepted them on your behalf. I also mentioned you told it half as well as I do. LOL!

Bring a stack to Old Songs Kendall. I'll shill them for you in the jewelry booth. And I'll want one for my own as well.   I'd change the title to: Maybe Just One More.

I don't care. Hell, the guy who married Karen and I got his license out of an ad in the back of Rolling Stone so as far as I''m concerned Kendall can use the ghost of Mother Teresa or Father Mulcahy........................

KT, I'm afraid Jacqui has dibs on almost everything I have. :-)
Joe, it ain't luck. They go for the primitive look; I shamble about the landscape clad in an animal skin and they pretend that I'm bad news.They like to play with fire, but they know they won't get burned.
Right, girls? Jacqui is always there with a bucket of water...

Gordon doesn't want to be recorded, and I don't know any of the other performers, so, Jacqui and I are it.
Sandra, I'll send the info in a PM.

Well, ya know, all those one-name people keep going on their "final retirement tours" and last recordings for forty years or more. Cher and Streisand are doing it, why not Kendall?
You just watch. Forty years from now, you'll still see Kendall wearing something slinky like a black leather jacket, and the women falling all over him just like they do now.
Would that I could have his luck.

P.S. Kendall, can you set one of those "Swan Dive" CDs aside for me?

Sandra, Jacqui has a pay pal account.

Midchuck, there are some repetitions, but I don't remember if they are the same recordings. I'm throwing in Iremember Loving you because Diamonds in the rough only has 13 songs.
You may order just one if you wish, take your pick.

Too bad you're not from the South; you could call it "The Final Drawl."

It's back and working like a charm.
Now, let's see who is serious about ordering this rare set of two CDs.

We will be coming to the UK in May, so if anyone in England, Scotland or Wales wants one we can either hand deliver or mail them from somewhere in England. That will save you the international postage rate. A personal check in pounds Sterling will do, we can cash them over there.
So, my mailing address is: 120 Sawyer road, Scarborough Maine 04074
USA
All I need is a check for $12.00 and a return address. Your move.

By the way, we settled on a name. DIAMONDS IN THE ROUGH. I was looking at my Granddaughter's dog at the time it hit me. Her name is Diamond. The dog, not the Granddaughter.

Kendall, sometimes if you remove the active driver for the cd/dvd device and then reinstall it the computer will find it again. My guess is its a software conflict issue and not a hardware problem.

It will be worth the bother once the guy gets Kendall's pc back working properly. Right now it won't recognise that there is a blank disc in the burner. Same discs as we've used for recording in the past and once on this new machine. Hopefully the repair guy will fix it.

We're waiting on Bob Coltman to agree that we can use his title for the CD. Once we've got that done we'll be in business.

well, Jacqui would take Umbrage and more.

A HELL of a lot more Rap - starting with bodily parts, I think.
