[Peter Johnson]

My name is Peter.

"Hi, Peter."

I've been lurkin' and postin' on the Org bbs since my corporate bbs jones went into the shitter...but I never listened to the Organissimo samples or purchased their CD.

Today was different, and I don't know why (guilt? ). I listened to the samples, which completely rock, and couldn't help but buy the CD.

Anyone who hasn't purchased this thing, I can tell you (even based on the samples, if you haven't listened to them) that it's gonna rock.

Don't hesitate--join my twelve-step program for delayed purchasers and buy the damn thing.

I can't wait for it to arrive!

And Jim & crew, thanks again for setting up the BBS. Sorry it took so damn long to take the plunge!!!!!!!!!!!!

Better late than never! Thanks Peter, I sure hope it works out that we can bring it to you live in Philly!

[Jim Alfredson]

Thanks Peter! Every little bit helps!

Don't forget, there are short samples on our webpage www.organissimo.org but there are also full song-length samples on CDBaby.com!

If you likey, why not buy-ey?

[Jim Alfredson]

Peter, consider writing a review for the CD on our CDBaby page. Or at the least, let us know what you think!

[Peter Johnson]

Absolutely, Jim--and by the way, any progress trying to get your money back from your previous distributor?

[Jim Alfredson]

No, and I've been so busy I haven't been calling them. Supposedly they pay at the end of every month, so we'll see if we get a check in the next few days. If not, I'm going to leave a nice message on their answering machine saying basically, "Pay up or my lawyers will be contacting you."

And I ain't fucking around either. I know four different lawyers who are personal friends that would go to bat for me.

I never got around to picking up the disc last week. Now, CD Baby is apparently out of stock. So I used ebay. I also sent you a PM. Let me know what you think

I have to admit when it comes to jazz, organ combos are not at the top of my list, but I just picked up "Waiting for the Boogaloo Sisters..." and was blown away. My order from CD Baby arrived this morning and I've been groovin' to Organissimo all day long.

Anyone out there who still hasn't picked this up yet, grab it now. You could do it out of a sense of obligation to our gracious hosts - but better yet, do it because you'll be getting some damn fine music.

[Jim Alfredson]

I thought I recognized that email address in the receipt email! Thanks Matt, I'm glad you like the disc. We hope to get back into the studio in October and start another! Woo!

[mgraham333]

You bet. Thanks for the great music and for being such excellent hosts!

BTW - I think I may have grabbed the last copy at CD Baby b/c they're showing it's out of stock now.

You know, that sums up my feelings, so I was really suprised that I found this disc so enjoyable. My original interest in the disc was sort of a cross between curiosity and a desire to "help the host". Then I listened to the darn thing. Hah! I thought I was doing Jim, Joe and Randy a favor, and here it turns out that I got the best of the deal!

I purchased Boogaloo when it was still a new release, back about March or April (I'm forgetting the date). I've never been the slightest disappointed.

If Blue Note believes Soulive is good enough for it's roster I'm not sure why Organissimo isn't already on the Blue Note roster as well.

If Organissimo was signed to Blue Note would we have to go back to trying to us the BNBB?

[Jim Alfredson]

Thank you, wesbed. Good to see you posting again as well.

You know, my dream is to be on Bluenote. I have an opportunity coming up that may get us on a different, smaller, independent label but maybe someday we'll record for BN...
