Title: Christmas Day
Stop all unnecessary wars now!

Christmas Day is a song from a suite or story in music that I wrote and recorded as a demo around 10 years ago on an old 4 track. The objective was to try and tell the story of how war affects ordinary people, not really a great political message, just to show what pain and suffering result from conflict. Unfortunately I think it is still as relevant today as it was when I wrote it.

My Cuckoo page is a much less serious set of songs all played on ukulele, mainly attempting to recapture the sort of early 20th C jazz sound of songs like Hello my Baby and Five Foot Two. I am very proud to say that I am an official representative artist for RISA the largest manufacturer of electric ukes in the world.
Official Risa Artist: I'm so excited, I have just been made an official Risa-Artist.

I always record with my Risa Tenor cut-away electro uke which I love for its playability unique tone and the fact that it can be plugged in.

So I am now featured on Risa's web site http://www.ukulele.de/menu/ [click on Risa-Artists], alongside such uke legends as Bob Brozman, and Ralph Shaw.

Risa are the worlds leading electronic uke manufacturers, and I would genuinely recommend their ukes [and no I'm not on commission of any kind] particularly the electro-acoustic because that's what I play.

Here's what I said about my uke:

It has great playability, it is comfortable to hold and has a superb action this coupled ...
Just letting people know that I've started uploading The Adventures of Bradley Brackett of the Galactic Patrol to my music page.

It's a pulp science fiction radio drama presented in episodes, written and read by Timothy A. Sayell and produced by me (Cyberwizard Productions).

Two episodes are online now. Come take a listen smile :)

We are sending you this message as you were listed as one of
Mellosonic's friends here on SoundClick. You might have already heard,
but we are sad to inform you that Chris J. Brown(aka Mellosonic)
passed away on September 23rd. We were friends with Chris and found
him a welcoming spirit. Last year we started an online band with
Chris, "3Fuzed", and worked on several ideas that we are sharing with
you now. We were planing on releasing this material at a later date,
but our plans have been sadly changed. We have decided to post all our
songs on SoundClick. Follow the link below where you can listen to our
music and hear once again, how wonderful Mellosonic played his
keyboards and how talented he was.
Bobby and Marc of 3Fuzed

Hello, my friend!

Like the fabled phoenix, from the ashes of the old Evotica is born anew. And then there were two!

Best wishes and much respect,

Gill Harrison & Vesna Zafirovic
