notes

"Mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the mid-day sun", and true to the W.A.S.P. I am, I chose to do my first album the hard way - straight to digital tape (DAT)-with Bob & me in the same room, sharing mikes - each cut done straight through, making it next to impossible to re-balance or fix errors! However, the studio recording took on the spontaneous presence and intimacy of live performing. We had a wonderful time in the sessions. We hope you like the results.

"VOCAL ANGORA!"
CAB Magazine

"SIMPLY ELEGANT, ELEGANTLY SIMPLE"
WRIV, Bruce Tria

"TASTY, UNUSUAL SELECTION OF STANDARDS, WONDERFUL SINGING"
WBES, Randy Mallory

"ECLECTIC MIX OF SONGS, BOTH WELL-KNOWN & OBSCURE, FOR AN ENGAGING PERFORMANCE OF PARTICULAR INTEREST TO CABARET FANS."
Jeff Rossen, GAY CHICAGO
