Be Your Friend - Itunes release someday?
Submitted by Anonymous on 7 November, 2011 - 17:52
Hi there,
I saw you at an Allan Holdsworth gig in london in the mid 1990's and was really impressed and bought a copy of your tape.
Sadly I lent it to a friend who played bass and never got it back. Now I live in canada I'm unlikely to!
I've been searching for ages for you online but had misremembered your name as 'one-string bass' (don't know why).
I'd love he chance to buy your great CD in its entirity as download (Itunes perhaps?) or one of your remaining CDs.
As for buying tracks off your site, how do I get money to you? Paypal? If so, can you tell me where to email that?

Hi Martin
thanks for your lovely message!

Good question, simple answer: Bandcamp is handling those payments and there's a shopping cart there.
But now that you mention it, I realise that's totally not clear at all from the song pages here! I'll have to do some editing!
Basically each song has a page at Bandcamp (where the music's actually hosted) as well as a page here. The page here uses a playback widget from Bandcamp, but you can also listen directly at the Bandcamp page and do a few other things there.
At the time of writing there are already links to the Bandcamp pages, meant mostly for the occasional browser which fails to render the widget... I just forgot to explain that that's also where you can pay me money :-)
I think I do have a minuscule number of BYF CDs still unspoken for, although I'm not really promoting that album any more. I'll email you about that.
I'm somewhat ambivalent about re-releasing BYF at this stage, either online or as a re-pressed CD, because so much of its worldview is stuff I'd write differently now and I don't want new listeners to think that's where I'm at. It's not totally unlikely that I'll stick it online somewhere at some point (probably on Bandcamp rather than Itunes), but I'd want to get a substantial mass of the new stuff online first, so it's clear where the "centre of gravity" is nowadays.
