AC/DC New Album & Tour but Malcolm Young Retires
Delighted to hear that AC/DC have a new album out soon and a tour next year. However the announcement is tinged with sadness as Malcolm Young has had to retire due to health issues.

Re: Beautiful cover of Love Itself by Thomas Hellman
Just listened to the show featuring a number of Leonard's songs. Thomas Hellman sang a very moving version of my favourite track from 10 New Songs. Thanks for posting.

Now that our credit card bill is paid off from the Dublin event, we have managed to find a few euros to donate to this project. Payment should be received via Paypal imminently. Please let me know if not. Hopefully the project will be completed by the time we come to Hydra next June. Looking forward...
