Another review of my CD was posted on allaboutjazz.com

I'm no Johnny Mercer, but hey, someone's writing about me...

aaj cd review #2

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSS

I liked your phrasing, Henry. I get tired of the same old worn out way of wording. I liked what you did.

Thank you, Debbie. A few other musicians I respect agree that that lyric is better than the reviewers proposed "better wording." I still appreciate the review and think it was great overall.

I don't dare compare myself to Johnny Mercer anyhow!

Put me down as a vote for preferring your way better. To do it the writer's way would have involved putting the em-PHA-sis on the wrong syl-LA-ble. Which drives me almost as nuts as all these people I hear on the radio using double negatives when I'm trying to teach my granddaughter not to do that.

Besides, hell, it's different. Who wants to do everything the same way everyone else does?

I still want my copy!

Thank you, Jim.

Dana, I'll have some on me at the HFF gig Sunday.
