Very impressed with Talking Elephant Records. I ordered my copy around midnight on Wednesday and it was delivered this morning. Now looking forward to listening to it this evening.

Just entered the track and album details for "Gracenotes", so if you upload it on to you ipod or mp3 systems I hope I've got all the tracks correctly named (some of them are rather long). Though, could not find out how to get the accent for the title.

Thanks Jude, that works, but now can't work out how to edit what I've already entered.

It's superb   ;D ;D

I put it on in the car this morning (I was a bit glum) and suddenly realised I was wearing an ear-to-ear grin  ;D

It's got to be one of the best 'cds to lift your spirits' that I've got  ;D

Not sure how they make any money, though.  They've sent me a second copy ???  It arrived tonight - clearly a cock up on the administration front at Chez Elephant.

I got a second copy as well this morning. Just got to check they haven't charged me twice and then find out where to send it.

And now I've received a second copy! Has anyone received an explanation of the dual mailings? Perhaps there was an error in the firs "pressing" of the cd or package ... ? I don't see any differences ...

It hasn't been off the CD player for three days - it's really lovely, very gentle, restful and grows on you. One great tune very reminiscent of the Hens March through the Midden (or something like that) - great playing technique (well at least I like it!).

Many thanks to Swarb for an excellent album.

I sent an email to Talking Elephant, but they never answered. No way to make a living.

Hello All, Swarb here, Thanks for the nice things said about the cd.
Talking Elephant are a two man operation, they are at the moment run off there feet and making a few mistakes, the important thing is that if you order a cd you get it, if you get two, yours truly and T.E offer our apologies.
Thanks a lot for mentioning the problem, if you do receive two copies instead of one,You could allways flog one of them and give the proceeds to charity.
 Love Swarb.

I had a very nice email from Barry at TE today and will be returning my spare CD to them!

I feel very virtuous [;-)

It is a cracking album, Swarb :)
