A Thought for Today
Be thankful and mean it.

TO BEGIN WITH
Here’s a preview of the new Complete Amsterdam Concert CD. It will be
available at The December Holland Concerts next month and January 1st
from Stanyan House.
This 2 CD set marks the first time the complete October 1971
Concertgebouw Concert has been available in any form. It includes a
dozen unreleased songs from the original program plus a bonus track; a
new recording of “What a Wonderful World,” one of the songs I’ll be
singing at the concerts.
