[JPL] About the Mcbride-Allen project

[cory at cellarjazz.com]

Thanks for the kind words about my album.  The response has frankly  
been overwhelming and I am flattered that its getting nice reviews and  
lots of play.  The artwork is something I was a bit nervous about but  
when you have a last name like Weeds I think you really have play it  
up and have some fun with it.  My next record cover is going to be  
classic!
