hi frank

thanks for coming on the forum.

i hope you make a speedy recovery and can add some input to the web site.

when i got home in may, i played your track on goldmine cd #20 'i've got that feelin'.....it's possibly the best track on the entire series.

i'll never forget those carmen murphy 45's you had, either.

best wishes
david
