I still pull a book or two down a year, and still feel responsible for a small bit of the success. So proud of my old friends, Hugh, Kayray, etc.

Nice to be in touch with you, Brad. I had heard you composed the LV podcast theme from listening to past podcasts. If you would like to contribute a little audio to one of the upcoming segments, I'd love to have you as part of one of them. I'm especially interested in the story of the theme. How did it come about? Did Jim Mowatt ask you or did you suggest that the podcast needed a theme? What process did you go through in creating it? Did it take a lot of different tries and go through different versions before ending up as it did? What inspired you to make it like that? Had you composed musical themes before? What's your musical background? Did you personally record the three variations we have? All of them sound like analog recording and not synthesized. Is that right?Also, anything you would like to say about what it felt like for you during those early days would be great.Bob
