 'If anyone cares' was my way of staving off the usual barrage of 'it will never sell' type of comments from the usual suspects. Epic fail.

So you underestimated the grumpiness of some?

Clearly. Conversely, they overestimated my naivete.

I've warned you guys about Pazuzu- first he wanted to break the faith of Father Merrin and Father Demian. Now he's going after the very soul of Organissimo!

Wayne Enstice just informed me about Dottie Dodgion's passing:

" It saddens me to tell you that Dottie passed away last Friday.  She would have turned 92 this Thursday, 9/23. "

Anybody who purchased and read the memoir is kindly asked to post a review on amazon or anywhere else and link it here.

R.I.P. - thanks for the music and your contribution to the encouragement of women in jazz.
