Cindy,

Do you have any recordings of Michael's giggle when he was the voice of the Pillsbury Doughboy? Just curious if I would recognize it as that was a long time ago!

I’m having coffee with Carl Franzen tomorrow. As you may know he is the writer of “On The Road” and longtime friends with Michael and John Denver going back to before Denver, Boise & Johnson. Anyone have any questions you want me to ask?

Cindy, I tried to edit my profile to include my entry in the the 'Favorite Song' frame and it is still not showing on my profile. I've seen this frame on others but mine is a no show???

What am I doing wrong?

Driving Through the Hills of Mexico

I have a 1976 concert tape where he might have told the background of this song. Another tape to find...

I try to match up photos with the date of the audio but I don't have much before 1995. So here are 3 photos out of a collection he sent me of his room conversion to a home studio in Nashville. I asked his family for more photos a few weeks ago but no reply to my email.
