We still need to mix a bunch of them. This is a large project, with many people involved, expenses will be high. If you are interested in the album, please consider pre-ordering or donating now to support this project. If you’ve supported Gordon in the past, he sends his thanks, and is still releasing tracks from the “Single of the Month” club. If you have any questions or would like to support him, please reach out to us at: info@bostonswingcentral.org
