  2. Yeah, a fantastic album from a fantastic artist. Thanks for guiding us through it Veda. I am going to Berlin next week and will see Veda with band perform at a club called B Flat. A very nice German chap called me yesterday and confirmed that the tickets are booked! So Mitch, I know she will charm me as well!
