Dear Forum Friends

I apologize for not spending more time with you on the forum. Work-life demands have kept me away from music for a while. Somehow I found time to write and record a new song for your entertainment.

As you know, or might assume from my music alias, I'm a real space geek. As such, my wife and collaborator encouraged me to do a song commemorating the 50th anniversary of the first Apollo moon landing. We had a big celebration at the Smithsonian in Washington DC.

I used some of the famous audio clips from that era and based the lyrics on statements and ideas from those who played important parts in the missions. The title of the song "For All Mankind" is on the plaque on the Apollo 11 Lunar Module still on the moon.

As a young boy, these space missions inspired me to a life of service, advancement of science for the good of all mankind, and the hope of a bright future. I know we are still working on the last part.

Here's the song link: sondclick.com "For All Mankind"

I'll put it on Soundcloud soon and give the link to PGM for their radio stations.

I plan to remix this once I get back to my studio next week so I'd be grateful for your technical comments.

Thanks for listening.
