Hello,

It's February... there's frost outside... and I feel very pleased with the way the new CD ideas are coming together. In fact, at the moment I have too many songs ideas... too many songs. As you know, each of my previous CDs had 16 songs on them (although some were little atmospheric 'joining' pieces)... but at the moment I have over 20 to choose from. I love this stage of planning a new collection... allowing the songs to almost choose themselves and fall into place. I am going to write some more on these pages about the new CD soon - I'd like to tell you about the themes and ideas. Alas, I am out of time now, but please watch this space, and I'll be back soon,

Beck xxx
