Familia Souldiez Vol 34 - Moments Remembered


Been one of those months ! The computer gremlins got to me just when it was my turn as producer; so all I could do was chase the crew to send their tracks and rely on my buddies to help out with the final production. Getting harder and harder to crack the whip over these vatos - many of the familia are missing this month. RB even had to pull together a cover in the G Man's absence. And two of the keener members sent me a duplicate track so that didn't help the numbers either ! But, as usual, the prudent ones had sent a few backup tunes so it all came good in the end. In fact, despite the last-minute flurry, it turned out pretty darned good to my ears; hope you all feel the same ! Thanks again to the family members who contributed; and better luck to DustyRose next month.  I'm sure she'll have Vol 35 all licked into shape in time for Christmas. Mello
