FYI ~ I have a BLOG that I started back during the plague. I had way too much time on my hands. So here is my plan. Sure, you've already bought the AJ Crawdaddy catalogue, or downloaded our tunes, which we thank you immensely for your support! But, maybe you want to gift one to a friend, or have multiple CD's so you can use them as coasters, ornaments, who knows what? I am willing and able to split any and all earnings from purchases of AJ Crawdaddy catalogue through Bandcamp and send half to Ukraine Relief fund! Details are in my BLOG:

Always a great start to the day, mailing out the catalogue to a new fan. These CD's were created, recorded and engineered personally by me and my band mates. This represents a personal journey. That I took the risk and ventured forth in my quest to learn, "the other side of the glass" the recording process from start to finish, from writing, recording, engineering, mixing, mastering and marketing a CD/Record/Stream. After making numerous records with the likes of Tom Down, Bill Schnee and Jim Gains at the helm as a recording artist, I fulfilled a lifelong, personal commitment to the muse, from hustling gigs and performing music for 50+ years to building a studio, learning the science of ProTools and engineering, and going through the entire process from beginning to fulfillment. When they say, "The journey is the reward" this is what they're talking about! http://thecaverecordingstudio.us http://ajcrawdaddy.com
