What's going on with Maynard's Groovy Bible Tunes, from day to day...
It's true: I've burnt the first version of the new "King Seekers" CD. The sleeve and booklet etc are still being designed, so it'll be a little while before I get any CDs to sell. It's 24th Sept today, check back in two weeks, to see how I'm getting on (8th October...)
It's been a lot of hard work - there are NINE new songs, and FIVE recent songs that have only been on the Christmas / Easter compilation CDs (I don't count those CDs as 'major' CDs). That makes nine new recordings, and 5 part new recording / re-mixes. That was a lot of hard work - but I'm really pleased with the outcome.
As a taster of the new songs, I'll try to get one or two up on the website soon...
At last - the first public results of the recording session with some of the children from our HotShots Club! Click this link for a reminder of what happened...
The online version of "Click - He's the Image" has been updated with this new recording - and I think it's great. Well done kids!

I'm recording today - with some children from our Church groups. We're going to sing some of the new songs, and see how far we get!
I'm moving my computer and lots of gear into the church. I've got a plan for how to set it up, but since this is the first time I've done this, I expect it'll change as we go along. It should be great fun - I know the kids are looking forward to it. I just hope they can cope with doing a few 'takes'.
We've got two hours, but I don't know whether that'll mean one song or ten. I'm not expecting it to be easy - but on the other hand, I do know that the real hard work will be mixing the results later on. That will take hours. Still - I've been quite pleased with the recent results I've had with recording, so I'm very hopeful to get some great stuff out of this.
The aim is to get a new CD out soon - a commercially printed & packaged CD... We'll see.
March has begun, and...
