Thanks so much for reading and listening, John Kochanowski! And many thanks for the compliment!

I’ve come to appreciate that my mixtapes are unique. Whether you love ’em or are baffled by ’em, they are usually something only I would concoct. And I rather like that!

It’s always lovely when someone finds me and digs this random thing that I’m doing, too.

And I agree, Ms. Winan’s version IS fantastic — I’d never heard it till last night.

Mom will appreciate the extra birthday wishes! I hope your dad had a lovely, joyous day!
