Now if only I could learn how to sing well while holding my violin

since most of mine were already said -- the last jam - bela fleck and the flecktones, at the end of their new album, little worlds. there are some other really great songs on this album. i know it sounds lame, but i've loved this song since i was a kid in 1994 -- "in the times of india" - ian anderson. some might even think it lame, i admit it doesn't have mass appeal, but it's wonderful music.

special mention to LIOG, #41, WWBOM, you enjoy myself, all you need is love
