You're still a hard man :) Thanks for the feedback on 'I Am Always'. That track was written and posted over 10 years ago; before you did your great sax work on 'Water'. It's on my to-do list to go back and redo that track. If you can slot me in between your Grammy dinners and marathons, I'd love to have you drop a live sax on it; it would be an honour pal. Glad to see you're still as sharp a knife. Love to the family.

Tough review of my track 'I Am - Always' - love you to bits mate. I was on that project you offered to play live sax for me, and I am forever grateful pal. Keep well.
