friends,

welcome to episode 239! tonight brings us part two of our interview with curt yagi. if you didn't get a chance to hear episode 238 (part one) last week, i hope you'll visit the archives and take a listen. tonight picks up precisely where 238 leaves off - featuring more songs from curt's new cd close my eyes, and more discussion surrounding the creative process, the inspiration behind curt's music, and the recording process. it's good stuff.

many thanks, again, to curt for taking the time to share his work here. and many thanks to you also for visiting and listening and sharing the podcast with your friends. i'm honored you're here, sincerely, and hope everybody has a great week! :)

if u haven't already, don't forget to check curt at curtyagi.com, and buy his cd here.

love,
russell

my sincere thanks go out to curt for his openness and willingness to share his work here - both this week and next. if you like what you hear, please don't forget to visit curt at curtyagi.com, and buy his cd here.
