Don't know whether to put this here or in the other thread, so I'll put it in both. :wink:

But first, a couple of disclaimers.
* I didn't describe vurts music as "dance oriented", I just said experimental.
* I didn't describe Geeseaplenty as "70's prog rockers" either - but I DID say the tune reminds me of Caravan and that ilk of 70's prog bands.
* I didn't say I was heavily involved in the project - in fact, I stressed several times that my only involvement was that I was on one of the tracks, other than volunteering to be a UK distributor.

But, the journalistic habit of adding things that aren't there and / or journalistic license apart, I don't think it's a half bad article.
OK, so it's only the local free paper, but if it makes people in this (community conscious) area think about getting one then that can't be bad can it?

Still to come - the City Life article. I thought City Life would review it, but they e-mailed me to say they were just gonna feature it.
Better than nothing - the mag has a wide circulation within the Manc 'scene'. :)

Glooper - I noticed some quotes from you in there towards the end... did they actually get in touch with you or is it more journalistic license? :lol:

Anybody out there with the ability to get this CD featured in the National Press?

Damn Mick, I had a completely different image of you. You look crazed in that picture!

I don't mind being classified as 70's prog rock, although that was the last thing I had on my mind when I composed the track!

Anyways, good article and thanks for all the work you've done promoting it.

I recommended your song to Craig Charles, he does a funk/soul type show on 6 Music in the UK. well I actually recommend yours, topaz and Rozzers to him. But I definetely associate your song with 70s Funk ...:)

Just posted yours a few minutes ago..;)


Just to let you all know the progress so far... We have broken even and after costs have raised around 350 pounds so far for charity. I'd like to thank everyone who has bought the CD, and has helped us so for...

However, I still have lots and lots of CD's left, but am running out of ideas on how to sell them?! So does anyone here have any ideas?

Not sure... You would think that it would have sold faster with the free Milky Bar with every CD...

Or was that just mine? :-o
Music with dinner is an insult both to the cook and the violinist.
