I recently chnaged jobs and I lost her Address at Kent,Uk. I am willing to try again but need her mailing address. Can someone send it to me again. Thanks. By the way whats happening with the Basia Video? We seemed to have fallen asleep again. I would like to try to wake everyone up again. What is your favorite Basia song and why? I am kind-of torn between Promises and Baby, you'r mine. I love the words, and especially the Brazilian music. It takes me back to Antonio Carlos Jobim in the early 60's. There are some benefits to being 50 or older. I had the opportunity to hear these songs first hand when they were popular. ALso Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto. If I recall they were all on the Verve Label. By the way hows my Brazilian friend from Rio doing? I haven't heard much from her lately. Stay well all.

That would have been a great show. Summer must be better for music in London than March when I was there - nothing going on at all. A couple of years ago (or was it several years ago?) Burt and Dionne were scheduled to perform at a summer music venue in Massachusetts - but it was cancelled at the last minute. I sure am glad I didn't have tickets. Dirkster, didn't you mention here a while back the existence of a new MattB release? I was in Tower in Boston recently and didn't see anything but Gran Via.
