Eternally grateful to you for this advice. I've just listened to some sample
tracks in Daniel's website. Different sort of arrangements to Goran's CD,
but I'm listening right now to 'If I fell' (to me one of the great
underrated Beatles' songs), and gosh, I'm melting already...

Great stuff, thank you.
