Hi Tom,
You've got some unique stuff here. I'll be digging in deeper soon. Many thanks for the files you sent over. Very kind and very appreciated. I've got them downloading now and look forward to hearing them for the first time. Thanks again.
Cheers,

willard-welcome. I see you found your way here. Please enjoy the music. I only come here and post every once in awhile so I may not respond to comments in a "timely" manner. My intial intention was to use this blog as a storage place for my posts that I posted elsewhere, however I haven't been able to keep up since life has been too busy lately. But keep visiting because I have a lot of music to post that you might find interesting.

Sotise- yes, it's very beautiful. This is one of the records that started me onto the path of "different" music so to speak. Aki Takahashi still remains one of my favorite piano players. I have more Aki coming.... T.
