"First Fruit"
This album came about after a friend had given me some money to make a CD. It is a wonderful thing to have someone believe in you when you are having trouble believing in yourself. I guess that is a gift in itself each of us can give someone else. Sometimes you just need someone to plant a seed by saying in some way " You are worth it & I believe you can do it".
So thankyou Eric that money went towards this website which can host any number of musical albums I care to write and record.
I believe every good gift comes from God the Father of us all & gifts are made for sharing. Getting back to this little story ..
The album " First Fruit" was a small way of hopefully giving something to help someone else from the tiniest of seeds.
I've previously described the work of "Bali Life" childrens home elsewhere on this site but enough to say if you buy this album for the amazing price of just $10 you will be planting a seed in a childs life that helps say" you are worth it".
I've put the album in it's entirety on this page so you can listen before you buy. It's not about the album or it's content , though I really hope you get something from it. It's about trying to help those already working to aid these kids . I have nothing but respect for the workers who give practical help in places like this. The great thing is anyone can help them by just giving a little one off gift... and if you tell someone else they might just do the same .Giving toward something you feel is worthwhile is one of the most rewarding opportunities in life and I don't just mean money. I mean across the board. It's just all about love isn't it?
Growing up to the sounds of " All you need is Love" and "Give Peace A Chance" ....those simple phrases said so much about the whole of life. I'm not putting myself in any musical class like the above mentioned songs but I am passionate about having a voice and doing whatever I can to do something worthwhile.That's my hope with this and other albums appearing on the website. Have a listen anyway... and I don't really mind if you can't raise the $10 donation. Just give what you can and it will help. There's a link below somewhere to where you can donate. It just goes straight into the kids care really without any middle person taking a wage to administrate.
Thanks and every good blessing to you!

To download the album just click on the " First Fruit" picture on the downloads page. Pay attention to where your computer saves this file. It is called "First Fruit.zip
It is a zip file so you will need a program that opens it . You may already have one on your computer or device. There are a number of free apps like 7-zip or PeaZip which are great but I'm sure there are others too. When you go to extract the album files from the zip archive it will ask for a "Password" . If you email me from my "Contact" page with your receipt no. from "Bali Life" after making a donation
of
$10 I will send you the unlock code. So just choose the option on their
page to make a "one time donation". It's tax deductible for you too....
so.... double bonus ..... and please email me. Excellent : ) Good on you!
