"Music Fit for a King" CDs
By Marc Elbasani

Dear MMDians,  First let me inform everyone that due to printer
problems and calculus exams, there has been a slight delay in shipping,
but everything has been taken care of now.  The mailing list will soon
be sent out and will list all three CDs in production (please note that
the third is not yet in production, but has been mastered).  E-mails
have been received and so the list is being constructed.

I noticed Robbie's little comment and, well, it sounds interesting.

The recordings of the Malone's organ have been going well, so there's
no reason why they shouldn't be just as well with other machines.
Anyone in Northern California interested?

Sorry to be picky, but I don't record organs smaller than 48 keys.
I mean, maybe I'm prejudiced (and correct me if I am), but organs
under 48-keys tend to sound like orchestral calliopes and not
orchestral organs.

Warmest regards,

Marc Elbasani
