Mark Courtney FrancombeYo Chris... good luck with this... I never really got into Partch, but know I should have, I guess there's still time... hope you are doing well, hope to see you again soon... playing live hopefully! M10y

Ross McFerranYo Chrissy. You've got my old email address which I have just checked, so I hadn't seen this fabulous opportunity to give you some of my hard earned cash. Anyway, here you go, I really hope this gets up. The Speigeltent show was great and I'm excited to hear more of that stuff recorded. I love that (???actual title!) All Your Sins Are Taken Away was renamed Bitter Music. It's so refreshing to hear someone who was proud and possessive of their sins and misses the little buggers. Didn't want to let them go. Bloody Christian forgiveness. See ya soon I guess. When you're back in Oz. Happy travels and hi to Tess from me. Ross.10y

Clive ShepherdI considered the guitar lesson but knew it would have been futile for one of us and excruciating for the other ;)10y
