I hadn't thought of this for what seems like aeons and glacial ages and, well, a very very long time. I was always sorta sad Michael Spiro never kept pushing with his musical career. "Music Sex And Cookies" was a great bit o' fun, too. The last I heard, he's working with kids at the Jewish Community Center here, particularly their camp. I hope they're enjoying his great good humor. His nostalgic song about singing at camp, based on "Michael Row the boat Ashore," is another gem. Thanks for reminding me - now I've got to search and see what recordings*I* might have tucked away of him. Joanne in Cleveland |

Touch me when I'm bowling, Touch me when I'm snow mobiling, When I'm cleaning the cat litter, Surprise me with your hands, And lightly, With kung fu, Touch me. Art (sheepishly) |

I haven't performed in a long time, but just recently had my first album re-released in Asia, and have remastered all my music for sale online (www.michaelspiro.net). I haven't worked at the JCC since 1999 -- but still have fond memories of those summer camp days, as well as my many years on the road as a troubadour. Nowadays I'm working as a technical recruiter, raising 4 kids, 2 of whom are at Oberlin College. Thanks for the kind words! Michael Spiro mdspiro@gmail.com |
