Thanks dude!  The world needs more people like you!  :-)

(side note from Bushmaster - Greg received the music electronically and did not have the benefit of the liner notes or credits to refer to when writing this review - thanks to all the talented musicians who worked on this disc with me, know that when this reviewer (or any other) mentions one of your parts and/or performance, that I direct the credit to that mention to you - thank you for your work :-) ... therefore the only edit I have made to Navajo Slim's review is...

Share 40 Acres with a friend :-)

Posted by Trudi Brown on November 07, 2012. 0 Comments

I wanted to share part of a note I received this morning with you:

"...Thanks for accepting my friend request, Gary. I sent you a friend request, last night (Election night), after a friend posted that he didn't care who won as long as he got his 40 Acres and a Mule. So, I made sure he received what he asked for...by sharing your video, “40 Acres and a Mule”. He really dug it, too!..."

You can listen to the song for yourself here:  http://youtu.be/0iBaMen8gnE
