COLLECTIVE MADNESS

  7. Probably more, most of my own creation, but then I do get opportunities to shut the world off, and let music do its magic.

    BTW, I have enjoyed listening to some of your posted pieces. I have not been familiar with most of it.

  9. You must have a cleansed soul.

    You're probably the only one that watched to the Grammy piece I posted.
