Posted 5 Mar 2017 My copy arrived Monday, but since the following day was Mardi Gras I decided to wait till then to open it up and enjoy it. Congratulations guys on a job well done! For me, it is a perfect last-music-before-I-go-to-bed album. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 7 Mar 2017 CD arrived here, just gave it a first listen, and I' thoroughly impressed. You uncovered sides in these songs, harmonically, sonically, that were beneath the surface, gave them original rhythmic arrangements, and added new touches. Love those Freedom Jazz Dance like phrases in one of the organ solos. And, although I didn't buy that CD, as it is not quite my bag, I hear touches of THEO and progressive rock. I'M positively surprised. If you ever come to Germany and need a percussionist, I'm in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haven't made it through the whole disc yet, but I echo that -- and if there's ever an Org+mikeweil gig in Germany, I'll do my best to make it there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 21 Oct 2017 I did not get any e-mail... and I get all of Jim's e-mails so I doubt it got put into spam. My spam folder empties itself every now & then so it won't be there months later. Kevin Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would check your spam folder perhaps or contact Jim. I just checked my order for "B3atles - A Tribute To The Fab Four" and I definitely ordered the bonus material option. We are still talking about the "B2atles" bonus material, right? I do not see "Live At The Speakez" on Pledge Music's website and the order page for this CD (which is somewhat hard to find right now) doesn't mention any bonus material. BTW, if Jim is watching this thread, the new "Live At The Speakez" CD is not showing up in the "CDs" link on the organissimo home page nor does it show up under the "CD" link in the Big O store. It only shows in the left most slider as a New Release and at the CD baby store as a download. Edited 24 Oct 2017 by Kevin Bresnahan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
