Lucky Us |
Currently in preparation: "Lucky Us: Unreleased songs and demos, Volume Two." After the untimely death of my great friend and musical partner Tim Cross, I'm working to get a fast release for the second volume of songs I worked with him on in the 80's. Titled after one of the songs we wrote together, this set contains some of Tim's most beautiful arrangements and keyboard work. It will be a fine tribute to him. TV |

Explorers news, interviews, reviews etc, but also a wealth
of related artists... Richard Strange (including a 1981 interview),

much more. Unpublished in any other form. Photos were taken
from one of no more than three surviving complete sets, and

originals of several covers.
PRICE $15 + shipping: $1 USA, $2 international.
