Hi, I really need to keep blogging more, been a few days since my last, but I’ve been very very busy (honest!). I’ve entered a competition on the East West forums and my track, The Tortoise and the Hare, has been downloaded 118 times!!!! Al...

Well, new to me anyway. It’s Windows Live Writer, and it allows you to write blog entries on your PC and upload them. Supposedly better than using the WordPress browse interface but time will tell… I’ll try it for a while and let you know how I get on with it. Cheers, Terry.

Well.. maybe the title of this blog entry is a bit premature… Hmm.. well… very premature….. I’ve just sent off a copy of Endless Lives to Rick Wakeman at Planet Rock Radio, he has a great Saturday morning show that plays some great music. A friend recently told me…”PMA!! PMA!!” and...

Hi, Just a quick blog to say that Purple Rhapsody is now on twitter. Unfortunately the Purple Rhapsody name was taken already so I had to register with PurpleNews instead. The link is http://twitter.com/PurpleNews Cheers, Terry.

Hi, As always I’m really bad at keeping up with my blog… but the good news is that my next album, Endless Lives, is really close to being ready for release. So close, in fact, that I’ve been working on the cover. You ...

Hi, I blogged the other day about how marvellous East West Quantum Leap Symphonic Orchestra Gold Complete is. I’ve got a long way to go to learn how to use it fully… but I’ve uploaded a demo track which is ALL orchestra apart from the piano. Chec...
