> I followed your lead to www.jazzradio.co.uk and thought you might enjoy

> appear not to recognize my name or verify on my band's website. Alas, 
> awareness of one's contribution does fade with new generations and/or 
> promotional inadequacies.

> So, my apologies Brian, for sharing our little exchange (which I think is 
> truly amusing) and a fun way to pique curiosity about my own recent 
> recordings, which I believe most listeners will find at least as rewarding 
> as those with the mystery band that I left in 1981. Again, no offense 
> intended, and with all good wishes for your internet show.
