A fan letter from Norway
...continued
...uplifting, sometimes sad & blue, but never ever depressing.
I've given away promos to a few people and waited for reviews, and now I finally got a great one (see below). It is from an internet site and I now feel that I can finally start to spread the word among a lot more people than I've done so far. I just didn't want this record to drown as so many others, due to the enormous amount of records being released every day all over the world. This record is timeless in it's greatness and deserves a destiny far better than being presented and forgotten. I played the record to one guy in a record store and *allowed* him to order ten copies, but only if he promised not to put in the shelf among the thousands of others, but sold it to people he knew would get the point. It worked. Slightly unconventional promotion, but it works and now, finally, I'll see how many people in Oslo and the rest of the country that can be convinced.
