Hi, Have just been checking out your blog and we I think its great what you are doing. I have a song that I hope you might listen to and give us some feedback. It is a sort of jazz / punk / funk. I'll leave that to you, call it what you want. Most of the instruments are played / written by myself but I do work with other musicians on the records too;) Many thanks Karl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVCbc27pHhY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pBapUH0cdGULloyd Hartley says:
How in the world do I reach this band? They have a recent Web site, but I cannot post or email!! Say they are recording again as of 2014!!! I just left long review of Information Superdriveway in Amazon, and would love for them to know it has always been my favorite album of all time!!! I will wait and see if someone actually reads this. I need to sing thee praises of FLCL, and tell a story of how I mistakenly discoved them decades ago, and how they have influenced my life. Someone tell me if they have a fan club or just a way to let them know that they have fans still.Jean Co. says:
