Yes, part of initial reaction was to the downloading .I realize I am out of 
step with the times.Paying $2 for a great song is really not that bad.I have 
  no problem paying $25 for an import cd.But part of it was sour grapes 
about David not wanting to do a whole album.I own 5 of his cd's and there is 
very little filler,if any on his products.And beibg old fashioned I would 
like to see these new songs compiled on a cd.
I do respect your taste Mark, and you say the songs are good.Who knows.Never 
say never.Maybe I will try one some day.My other problem is I don't have an 
ipod and I am not too up on burning yet.If I get on top of the technology 
involved I guess I can make my own cd.
As far as your fee,by all means.After all you have me interested[maybe].
What do others think of these new tunes?
