It was pretty interesting. He sang a few songs from the new CD - first time we have heard the entire songs since only snippets have been allowed on several music sites. It's a very smooth CD, all original music. Lover All Alone was written by Clay. And yes, he has a few up tempo songs. Kipper, came on board, he produces Sting and Chris Botti. Should be a big seller. gelfling – thank you – you beat me to it. It was pretty interesting.
