Hi Guy's, does anyone know what has happened to the Australian site? It looks like someone forget to pay the rent! In all seriousness is that it closed down? Cheers Russell Continue

Comment by Paul Thorley on November 20, 2009 at 2:48pm: Thanks Gary,
I am about to record another CD with Fleur Shelton so I'll keep you posted. The only other CD I have is about 3 years old and features 3, 4, 5 and 6 string CBG's made and played by me without any accompanyment so people could hear what a CBG sounded like. That was part of "educating the people" as far as what the hell a CBG was. That sells for $15 when we busk etc..
