A Happy New Year to everyone!

We spent the better part of the end of 2007 putting together a CD of live performances, taken from various shows at the Monterey General Store. Ten original songs - seven of mine, two from Kathy Reichert (who also contributes two lead vocal performances) and one from local Berkshire singer/songwriter John Roche - grace the disc and a wonderful cast of friends - Kathy, Karen Berger (piano), Greg Nease (guitar), Jim Martin, Helena Bouchez, Will Curtiss (all on bass), Anne O’Neil (percussion) and Joel Schick (harmonica) - performs.
For more information on the CD (song listing, musician credits, etc.,) and also for information on how to order it, just go to the Songs & Sandwiches page here on the website.
As always, thanks for listening. And my best wishes to everyone for a magical and musical 2008!
Peace
Hello to all.
Paul Hackett, creator of Guitar Noise and many other websites, has started a Guitar Noise Blog. We’ll be using it as a bulletin board as well as a place to post smaller articles and mini-lessons that may be of interest to Guitar Noise readers. Come by and visit and let us know what you think!

Hello to everyone
And I hope that you’ve all had a fun and wonderful summer (or winter depending on where the equator lies in relation to your home). It’s funny, because at the beginning of the year, I was telling Karen that the only thing missing from life was the chance to do a little more playing out and, lo and behold! it’s looking like I’m going to be in for a busy time the next four months.
Check out the new performance schedule on the Gigs and Performance page. In addition to a “solo” show, I’ll be backing up some truly gifted singers, writers and performers, such as Kathy Reichert, Nick Torres and local icons Todd Mack and Joel Schick. Not to mention playing along side of the talents of Karen Berger, Helena Bouchez, Jim Martin and the incomparable Greg Nease.
And if you happen to be in the area, please do come and say hello. It’s always good to chat and you’ll be treated to some terrific music.
Peace
