14 Feb 07 - 11:36 AM (#1967487) Subject: RE: Jed Marum Lyrics From: SouthernCelt If you can't find them anymore that might be because Jed's trying to sell music books. I've got one on order now. HEY JED, DID YOU GET MY CHECK???? SC |
14 Feb 07 - 02:47 PM (#1967674) Subject: RE: Jed Marum Lyrics From: bfdk Yep, I should have banged the drum a bit more for the booklet, but was in a bit of a hurry at the time.. It's an excellent buy, lots of lyrics and chords in it, and all for the price of just USD 10 :-) Best wishes, Bente |

15 Feb 07 - 01:06 PM (#1968792) Subject: RE: Jed Marum Lyrics From: SouthernCelt Well, I e-mailed Jed personally and got a response directly from him saying to send a check to his home address made out to him and he'd send a copy of the book. I presume that's what everyone should do. SC |

15 Feb 07 - 09:08 PM (#1969235) Subject: RE: Jed Marum Lyrics From: GUEST,Jed on a borrowed PC I have mailed out a couple of songbooks this week. Sorry you got no response Mmario - I'll look into it. Thanks for the interest in the lyrics. SouthernCelt - are you in MS? If so, your book should be there this week. I'm in Houston this weekend, working on a recording project. I'll bbe out of touch again 'til next week. Thanks again for the interest. I am thrilled to hear other folks singing my songs. |
