I think that's when Zora was trying to climb up into my lap. Yeah, that's the ticket...

Now in Asia. My signed copies arrived in Tokyo yesterday.

Only had a chance to have a cursory listen but I like what I hear so far. Sounds real nice.

Well done guys.

[Jim Alfredson]

Thanks John!

Just a quick note... CDBaby is currently sold out, but I sent them more on Monday. Hopefully they will have them back in stock by Friday or Monday at the latest. When they do, you better...

GIT YER ORDER IN!!!!

[Joe G]

Don't you mean Yo' order?

Selling like hotcakes on CDBaby. Great news!

Anyway, mine showed up over the last couple of days (I was away and it greeted me when I stepped in the door -- priceless). I do like what I heard but will be spinning again shortly to let it sink in. My only comment is that on the customs form, you put in a dollar value of $0. Surely, you must value it more highly than that.

(If not, maybe we should all ask for refunds. Or credit towards your third release.)

Just trying to save you some bread, my friend.

Of course I am kidding, but I would hate for the big O to run afoul of customs for making a false declaration. When I ship items like that overseas, I generally put $10 which doesn't raise suspicions but is low enough not to trigger paying customs duties (at least AFAIK).

But it was a gift from me to you, wasn't it?

[Jazz Kat]

hey Jim, didnt buy the new cd yet, but I'm wondering which song it was that the ladies from the beauty parlor came into the studio and told you guys to keep it down. Wasn't it a 3/4 tune, that your wife hates, and your dad loves?

Jim was playing the county fair on Tuesday.

It brought back fond memories of my youth in Mason... mullets, corndogs, goat poop....

... um ... ok, maybe not so fond.

Your eyes were all a sparkle. The demolition derby had you very excited.

Embrace your inner red neck Jim!!!

If you haven't posted one yet, get on over to CD Baby and put in the good word in a review. The more the merrier, and it can help goose the sales some. GET THE WORD OUT- IT SMOKES!!!

Hey: knock it off with the Mason jokes, ok? I could've raised you guys in a shoe box under a stairwell in downtown Indianapolis! Then where would you be? lol

Um... somewhere besides Lansing?

I'd be living in a van down by the river, of course!!

But I'd still be playing some funky B3!

Thanks for the reminder! If you've got the Cd and dig it, pls post a review on cdbaby.com.

Theo,

I was raised in Flint. In fact, I would have killed to have done some time in Mason...oh wait that is Jackson... uh.... nevermind.

The new CD will be restocked at CDBaby at any moment! We sold out!!

But you can get on an email notification list there, I see. Anyhow, with 22 stations across the country reporting organissimo's This Is The Place, on the top ten for album spins (up from nine stations last week) we are looking for bigger avenues of distribution. Very exciting stuff.

I hope you guys get airplay on major markets like WBGO and other major cities. Press in Downbeat, JazzIz and major city news papers wouldn't hurt.

I don't know how to do it, but hey...

[EKE BBB]

I received my copy yesterday. Will be on my CD player today.

Thanks!
