The ambition of this project (and
the fact that I found a wonderful woman and married her) made a
2008 release unrealistic. New equipment was added to the studio,
which eventually included a Macbook Pro and Cubase 6.

vocals, and the rest are written and in the recording
process. Here are two early rough-cuts:

Producer. New guitar: Eric Johnson Fender Stratocaster.
