really enjoying the albums. A really nice way to put them out to the world as well. I am also really more into just getting the songs out there than in making money, though it would not hurt. Peace to you. I am a new fan my friend

The main thing about this album thats different- Im trying to sell the download. I have given away six albums on this site…
