Howdy Matt....

Especially for someone like yourself who's been out gigging (in the truest sense) far longer than myself.
The first 10 minutes or so of mine was:
Music background: Robert Greenidge/Micheal Utley - "Soltar" (a long instrumental cut)
Images: many album covers reflecting my taste in music from early on.
Narration: talked about hooking up with band mates and how we got beyond doing freebies and actually got paid!
I did a short Twilight Zone music/narration thing at the end...it was fun. smile

After that intro the original songs start along with pictures from my past.
I put the originals in order of when they were written...not when recorded.
I don't know, maybe because I thought it would reflect some progression of improved song writing....or, I'm totally delusional.

You may have to approach it in Vol 1, Vol 2, etc.
But...I'm sure your family and friends will find it all quite interesting in the future.

Thanks for contributing.....
