Ha, good one eK!
Thanks Letha. Loved your latest too.
Loved this John. Nice sound and good song. Love harp too! Thanks!
Nice performance from one of my favorite duos here.
Apparently John lives what he sings too. Seems he's got himself one of those "little women" he's talkin'' about.
Ah... Phillip. I did not know that. You sir, are a musicologist.
