I wondered what it might be that God would ask WMD to do next. After the busyness of Christmas and the stress of making “Carols in the Cavern” it was a welcome break to have January with almost nothing to do.

Yet now, only half way through February, the next task has arrived. Last Sunday morning at the end of the Church service I happened to run into James Saldivar, (avid followers of this blog may remember him from Easter last year when we released a live single of his entitled “The Cross of Jesus”), and he told me that he’s finally got his songs ready and would like to get cracking on doing a few recordings. So yesterday Phil and I travelled down to his village, which is near Penzance, and had a chat with him about what he’s got written.

From my past dealings around and about I’ve worked briefly with James before, most notably in that he played at my brother’s wedding, so I knew roughly what style the majority of his work would sound like. At our meeting James played one piece on his piano and it was absolutely stunning. If the rest of his collection is anything as remotely as good as that one we’re going to be in for a real treat when this album launches.

Looks like recording may start as early as next week, so I hope to have the album released by the summer.

Thanks be to God!
