Rich,Thank you so much for the kind words. There was a moment, during rehearsals, when we were practicing vocals: Gerry Stone had requested some run-throughs and I was counting the group into a number of repeats of a vocal section. Tom and I looked at each other and almost lost it. It was a complete flashback. So...we had fun and it is extremely gratifying to know that you did as well. Seeing the joy on so many faces made this labor of love effortless. Thank you again, James
