Great stuff, but you really should gain a little weight

Could Dan really be..... Boney James .

PS: It's only funny if you're familiar with Smooth Jazz. Even then, not so much .

I knew who you meant ... and you're right ... ...

Hello everyone.

Thanks for stopping by to listen to my Halloween silliness, and thanks to everyone for the comments and encouragement. Your input and advice is always appreciated (although perhaps not always heeded ).

Thanks for your concern re: my weight and health. The photo is an old one from the days when I actually had to live off of what I could earn as a musician. After 15+ years of a day job and too much sofa-time, I regret to say that I'm no longer the svelte individual portrayed in the photo. I'm more like a pregnant grapefruit with arms and legs now.

Thanks for listening,
Dan

P.S. Chas: If you're ever really bored, or feel like tormenting the neighbours, here is where I keep the entire recorded works of Dan (at least the ones I'll admit to). How's that for a shameless plug?

Dan,
thnx for that link ... I can see the "ZONERS" folder on my iPOD getting thicker ...

Thanks for the link, Dan. I noticed quite a few tunes on the list that I do and it's always neat to hear a different approach, especially when it's done well. I really got a kick out of that Zen Gospel . I always wanted to do something like that with my VP-550 harmonizer, but was always too chicken. Thanks again, very nice.

"Halloween covers for the kids"...I was expecting some sort of blankets with scary designs...(ouch!).

Seriously, Dan, these are very well played, recorded and arranged.

You have conquered the Yamaha Vocalizer...a feat next to establishing world peace....and also, like Gary D., you have shown the longevity of the 3k amidst newer, prettier arrangers.

Nice work, buddy....a boo-tiful job.

Hello Synthzoners world wide.

Thanks again for stopping to listen and comment. It's much appreciated.

Careful not to pollute your Ipod too much, Tony!

"Halloween Covers for Kids' - could also be a bedsheet with two holes cut in it ala Charlie Brown. My favourite Charlie Brown line of all time is from The Charlie Brown Halloween show, "I got a rock...".

Chas, Zen Gospel was my first foray into A Capella VH (and many would say it should have been the last) . I especially like the lyrics in that one. Do you use your VP550 much? Is it fun? Looks like it might be.

Thanks again for listening,
Dan
