It's been a good news / not so good news week here. First your interest in my music has pushed my Listens total over the 700,000 mark (WOW!!) - if only my YouTube site had a tenth of that, I'd be amazed. Thankfully you folks here at N1M make my day with great frequency. Many Thanks!

My not so good news pertains to the lymphoma cancer I have been fighting now for over a year is still active, and will require me to take a second round of chemotherapy, with a projected round of another treatment if it doesn't put me into remission quickly. Thankfully I have a GREAT LORD, and HE keeps, and will keep me. I see the stress it is putting on my loved ones though, and they could use prayers for peace.

Many Thanks again for all your interest, and may this be a season of wonder and good times for y'all!

I have attached a song to this message that I've been getting in my YouTube searches lately... it is called "Wave Goodbye" - I've always liked it personally, and thought you folks might also appreciate it.

I wasn't expecting to have reached this milestone (600,000 listens) on N1M just two months after passing the 500,000 listen mark. I was expecting this would coincide with my latest cancer diagnosis update, but you guys ROCK!, and here we are!
Thanks for your continued interest in my music, and making my day, almost every day for as long as I can remember... I am including a link to my latest song uploaded to N1M, called "Been Talking With The Porter". Cheers!
YOU GUYS ROCK!!!

Hi All,
It is refreshing to see all the action that is taking place on N1M these days! It is also refreshing to see I am the recipient of some of that action, all because of you. I currently am working on a series of new tunes that will soon be loaded up to my site on N1M. I am still waiting for a test, and its results to find out how my health is in relation to the cancer I have been fighting. I hope you all are keeping healthy, and are in positive head and heart spaces; growing in experience, and expression. Cheers to you All!

Hi All,
I am sending y'all a "Thank You" early for getting me up to 500,000 listens on N1M by dropping a new song here called "Silent Works the Sackcloth Weaver".
I got the idea, and title from the Hebrew meaning of the city name Damascus.
Enjoy, and again, Thanks!

Hi There Folks,
I see you have taken my "Songs Listened To" total over 400,000. I thank you all for this! You have made my day, even after learning I am destined to start Radiation treatment in the New Year for my cancer. I had been hoping I was cancer free, so that I could focus on recording some new songs - I have six ready to go, and another two almost ready for the recording process. Since the cancer is in my throat, I'll probably won't be ready to do vocals until sometime later in the spring once the radiation effects heal.
Take care, and have a very enjoyable festive season all!!!
