Hi, thank you for offering your songs directly to your audience. Btw, I love track #7 (No Second Chances)!

Hi beatriz

I am sorry if my earlier comment came over as being ungrateful – that was not what was intended.

I applaud the decision to make this album available free or for a small donation.

I was just trying to make the point that I would personally prefer to pay for a physical CD (or at least a non lossy electronic source).

Thanks for the album – listening as I type. The MP3 files sound very good from my Mac (downloaded without any problems) and connected through some high-end hi-fi. I do hope a physical disc will be available as it’ll sound even better- It seems a shame that some people won’t even listen to the MP3 files – their loss…

Great music as ever!

Okay, so I’m not saying anything new here: I still think Colin’s got the most beautiful (male) voice in the business. I am simply delighted with this free(ish) album – so much so that I paid for it. You should too, it’s worth it, dammit! I haven’t listened to it enough to comment immediately, but I am over the moon that ‘Breathing underwater’ is on this. I heard it live back in 2001 and I never thought I’d hear a studio recording of this. ‘Life could be so wonderful’… And sometimes it is!

Colin, a superb album which I paid for and is worth every penny. Thank you for making such great music.

Another fantastic album from Colin. Hope to see you live again soon in Scotland.

The new release prompted me to listen to one of his best and sexiest albums ever ‘Comedy’ … Colin marry me !!!!

Acabó de descubrir que no sólo sigue Colin en activo, sino que esta sacando material nuevo. Aquí en España llevó años preguntando por él en las tiendas y nadíe sabía decirme. Era como si se lo hubiera tragado la tierra. Fan desde niña, ahora ya estoy tardando en coger la lista e intentar conseguir todos los años que me he perdido de tus obras de arte. Sigue así Colín, en Mallorca no te olvidan, por lo menos yo. Flor

Colin,

Finally after all those single songs a new album. It sounds as ever; superb.

Can't wait for the next Black album in September.

And yes, I did pay for it, off course.

Many thanx and greetings from Holland,

Arnold
