Over the last few days I’ve been making up for lost time with the great Kim Burrell and this is her again near her best despite protestations of not having much of a voice. Great song and a nice little bit from another classic with her all star women choir. Apparently there are some familiar […]
Read More Expect A Miracle & ChangedWhat’s in a name? Why is it so important? What’s the big deal? My first recollection of anything in terms of family and memories is back to when I was about five years old. I don’t remember anything before then.

Read More Dealing With The DifferenceToday my only biological brother celebrated his 31st birthday. David joins my father and I in not being that much bothered about birthday celebrations.
