What would you say is his best CD? Where should I start?

I can only say that when I heard this a couple of years ago I was stunned and immediately bought his first (?) CD which is entitled The Art of Motion from Candyrat Records. He appears to have his own website now perhaps with newer material: http://www.andymckee.com/ but I don't know what else he's done. Let us know what you find out, Kenny.

I hadn't heard of him either but I now have an Andy McKee station on Pandora and listening to it now. He makes my ears happy.

I'm gonna let myself get
absolutely soaking wet!"

"I am what I am
I don't want praise I don't want pity
I bang my own drum
Some think it's noise I think it's pretty
And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangle
Why not see things from a different angle
Your life is a sham
Till you can shout out I am what I am"

More Japanese music from me ths morning. This is Aoi Teshima's "Hikari," which means light.

After seeing this a few weeks ago (here?), I think I've figured out what went wrong with the world almost fifty years ago. Clearly, aliens came to tell us something very important. But we apparently failed to decode and translate their bizarre message. I have a bank of computers working on it right now. I'll let you know what I figure out.

Dude Dog! Yer Right! Damn! Humanity blew it again!

Clearly the name Karl Denver should have been a dead give-away!

I think the lady in the back may have got something... you can tell by her open-mouthed amazement!

I actually caught an interesting programme about that song back in the summer.
