Very happy that after a gazillion requests over the years, West Coast Diaries Vol. II is being rereleased digitally in a remixed, remastered form. We don't have the exact date yet but it will be in 2008 to celebrate the 20th anniversary of my ONLY all acoustic recording. Still trying to determine whether it needs to come out on CD or if digital will be enough -- give me some feedback. It features The Charlie Peacock Trio: Jimmy Abegg, Vince Ebo, and myself with special guest Roger Smith on one song. Here's a pic of the three of us when youth and beauty were still within our grasp.Don't forget to check out the Classic Covers project. See top friends to visit and listen.
On hiatus, will watch reruns of The Office on my laptop for summer viewing.
ONE Vote '08 is an unprecedented, non-partisan campaign to make global health and extreme poverty foreign policy priorities in the 2008 presidential election.The next president will take office in a time of great hope: there are effective and affordable solutions that save lives. AIDS drugs can now cost as little as $1 a day. A $5 bed net can keep a child from dying from a mosquito bite. With the force of more than 2 million members from all 50 states and a coalition of more than 100 non-profit, religious and charitable groups, ONE Vote '08 will educate and mobilize voters to ensure that the next American president is committed to using "smart" power to end global poverty and keep America strong.Get involved at http://www.ONEvote08.org
