All of those times we'd listen to Our Bert sing his songs on Mudcat Radio and we'd say in chat, "Bert, when are we gonna geta CD?" Well, he's done it!!

Lots of people who know about his flag song have been bugging him, saying it should be out, now, so thanks to them for lighting his fire!**BG**

I've had the pleasure of being his first sale, but you can jump in, too! Just look at this line up, all of our favourites of his, including his "Size Doesn't Matter," the heartfelt "Don't Make Her Choose" (which I think should be covered by Johnny Cash), and Amos' famous glowing pickle song:

Here's the song list,

1 I'm Your Flag 1:27 Bert Hansell

2 Plastic Flower Seeds 1:48 Bert Hansell

3 Spare Time 1:52 Bert Hansell

4 Size Doesn't Matter 3:13 Bert Hansell

5 Kiss for the Road 2:21 Bert Hansell

6 Stars and Snowflakes 1:50 Bert Hansell

7 Man in Black 1:41 Bert Hansell

8 Headed for Nashville 2:24 Bert Hansell

9 Don't Make Her Choose 1:48 Bert Hansell

10 The First Time 2:00 Bert Hansell

11 Colorado Girl 1:44 Bert Hansell

12 Bathing Angel 1:19 Bert Hansell

13 Silicone Cindy 1:20 Bert Hansell

14 British Workman's Grave 1:22 Traditional

15 When Your Pickle Glows at Night 1:34 Amos

16 Old Sow Song 1:37 Traditional

Only $10 per CD, folks. Mine is on it's way as I write, so I'll post more when I give a listen, but I know I am going to love it, 'cause I love Bert's genteel and sincere songwriting and performing. The man sings his heart on his sleeve.

Please PM Bert for details or holler at me.

WAY TO GO, BERT!!! Thanks!

I got mine last weekend at the arts fest where Bert and I were both performing (neener-neener-neener!)!

Hey, Bert, very nice CD!

Hey, Amos, good song!

What's your address Bill? I'll send you one. Don't forget I owe you one for the copy of "Bridging the Gap" you gave me.

Let me tell you, I was here when he made the copies. It is classic bert. Very well done. Everyone should own one. I don't, but I do have the original files on my computer, ha ha. Tell ya what, I'll email you MP3's for $9. Ha Ha. Bert, you should have deleted those files before you left. A great buy everyone, as good as anyone out there. Cheers.

Pretty hard to wrap up an mp3 and make it a present, though, eh? I'll stick to "seedies," methinks.*bg*

Bert made Curly Doody? Wow!! I am impressed! So often they just break up in pieces! Like Ted Turner said when dissing the designer of an incredibly slow sailboat, "Even a turd's tapered at both ends." So Bert, you have a real accompli..............
say what?........CD is NOT Curly Doody?................what the hell is it then?...................oh.....a record huh?....................well, uh..........hmmmmmmm.....
..........So I send you a ten spot and I get one? Far out!!!
...........although I would really like to have seen the Curly Doody...................................

To those of you who got a CD at the Getaway. I found that some of them have noise on the blank space between the tracks. If you got one of those and need a replacement send me a personal message.

Also my accounting didn't add up at the end of the day. I might have short changed someone. If it was you, let me know.

Bert - Don't worry I'll get it right one day.
