JimIny was talking to me about this song today, and he said, "For this ONE song alone, the CD is worth it." So, I'm buying.........hopefully tomorrow.
It's nice to know that REAL men DO cry
You guys are the best!

Each song has power in itself to move at many levels. I keep learning that. But I do gravitate from one to another--which is natural.
One song that floors me again and again is Carolee Maynes' tune, YOU. As a worship tune (written by a friend of mine's sister) I was never that impressed by it. But when Carolee (that angel of a sister) made it her own, WOW! Carolee ministers to orphans in Jamaca. I'd heard recordings of "her children" singing with her before. But when they suddenly popped up in this recording for this album. MIST!!!!!!!!! Gut jerking!!! Very stirring, beautiful and with a particular triumph, I think.
And did you hear? Jiminy and Woggy will be coming to visit me in Bellingham WA!!

We heard. We heard.
A royal visitation! You are the most fortunate of men.

I'm hoping the Queen of the DAmb will sing, "Said one mother."
Forgive me, o' queen for my presumptiousness to make a request.

I've listened to the CD twice today. It keeps getting better. Wow, Theo. It's wonderful.

And if anybody has thoughts on the album please, really, go to www.andysangelsrecords.org and sign the messageboard.
There are loads of folks who aren't related to this board or the DLs that come to check it out. I know from emails that your posts there mean a great deal to many of such people.
I know I say this quite often, but it is because it is actually very difficult to get friends to post. Go figure--who knows why...
But your thoughts and such mean so much to me and many others. For instance, I received Zippidy's note at 3:00 AM Sunday. Felt like God awakened me cause I just bolted wide awake. I went to check email. Felt I needed too and there was Zippidy. I preached the next day and God used Zippidy's email to totally change the first 15 minutes of what I shared. AND that change made ALL the difference in the world to the congregation that morning.
Just ask George Baily about how many other lives your one life touches.
I love you folks, dearly...
