Friends:
Attached is the story of and the list of songs on my newest CD project: "Grandson Beecher & Grandpa Bob's Songbook for All Grandchildren Everwhere" - that's GBGBSAGE in case you like to say it all in one breath. I have sung all 131 songs in the Reader's Digest Children's Songbook which is a favorite of our grandson, Beecher Woods Robbi. The songs range from Sesame Street, Wizard of Oz and Disney movie pieces to nursery rhymes, folksongs, and novelty numbers. I accompany myself on piana, guitar, autoharp and accordion (but not all at once!) It is a fun filled informal rendering (mistakes included) that should get your grandchildren singing, dancing, and laughing.
I am making it available for $25 plus postage ($2.53) for anyone who wants to gift their grandchildren with these wonderful songs, or even enjoy it with your own inner-grandchild. The 3-page listing of songs and the story of how this CD came to be (see the attached) will be sent along with the 4-CD set.
I don't have fancy-shmancy ways for you to pay, so if your interested (look over the song list) you can send a check, made out to me, to P.O.Box 651, Hurley, NY 12443 and I will mail it out to you post-haste.
You are the first, aside from our grandchildren, to know about this. May I wish you a joyous and loving Pesach (Passover) and Easter and a prayer for a warm and peace-filled Spring in which the new green of the season will stir the green in our wallets and our country will, as it always has, meet the challenges that lie ahead.
Shalom, Bob

P.S. The cover page of the program notes has colorful pictures of me, Beecher, and me & Beecher. It was too complicated to send out into cyberspace but you will have it with the set. Our dear friend, Estelle Nadler designed it. Another dear friend, Bruce Berky recorded the whole megillah, and one other dear friend, Bill Ayton who designed my website - www.cantorBob.com posted it there. Of course, Pat and the grandchildren were the inspiration throughout.
