The autumn leaves of red and gold”

Autumn Leaves by
Johnny Mercer/Joesph Kosma/Jaques Andre

Well…..NOT …… in Los Angeles !
But it’s nice to have  cooler weather this week
than it has been the past several weeks.

Good News

I recieved a nice royalty check in September.
It seems a television show in Ireland used one of my tune’s
and, well,  now I’m BIG in Ireland  🙂
Good Morning Dublin !!

Bad News

After 12 years my website company seems to have closed shop. So my site is not up now and I need a new site.
If anyone knows someone in the biz, please have them give me a call. I’m proud to say  I have held the  #1 and #2
Mark Carter positions on Google for a long time.

My CD’s are still available on iTunes and at all my performances. So keep those iPods,cellphones, etc,etc
Loaded up !!

As always I’m GRATEFUL for your support.
I hope to see you soon
Blessings

Happy Easter !!

Speaking of family…

I just spent some time with my son and his wife. They are expecting their

What a journey !

It seems so long ago when my kids were that age
and yet in a heartbeat it feels like yesterday.
