Hi Eddie,

Very strange thing about "THAT guy". The first thing he said before he had any idea of what I wanted, he said you can not use my name on any of this. I have no idea why. I really don't care as it is none of my business. He is not someone famous as far as I can tell.

Do I like it? No not yet, but not because of the vocal.

Women around me say this makes them want to cry. Poor guy...his girl has gone away, so sad! Well...I have no control over what other people feel, think or do. Any song that evokes strong emotion has something going for it.

I could care less what the song cost. I have little interest in money and even less interest in anyone knowing who I am. I don't want to sign autographs at the restaurant. I don't want people knocking over chairs to get to me to take a photo when I walk into BB Kings place in LA. Due to health issues, I am unable to actually play guitar any longer to even suit myself.

All of this is just fun stuff, much better than drinking gin and setting around watching TV. I am just sitting here waiting to see who dies first, me or Covid-19. I miss my boat, my friends, and the open ocean.

Anything is possible, but I am far from being the one to write the next hit song.

Cheers,

Billy
