To Michael Johns, Rye Randa, and Jeff Foxworth fans I have but one thing to say. These guys have truly scored magnificence in sounds worthy of much more than gold. You can get your copy if you get in line right behind me. All I needed to hear were the pieces and snippets of songs on the DVD to know I'll be buying this soundtrack the very instant it goes on sale.
I'll be back again with more news of Michael Johns single and CD release just as soon as the dates and titles are known.
Now for the videos I promised to tell you about. For those of you who enjoy a good laugh (even though Christmas is over), you can still view Rye Randa's video "Round Again" at the original site Funny or Die, or as posted with the short article I wrote at Love Me Two Times. The video quickly made the rounds again at the IDF forum and Michael Johns Fan Site as well. Giggles and grins were everywhere showcasing Rye's quiet humor.
You can also watch Michael Johns and Jeff Foxworth as they performed "Another Christmas" at Access Hollywood. As you already know if you read the story featured in the BC 2008 Holiday Special - Spirit of the Holidays, all the proceeds will be given to charity for ALS and Red Cross.
The song is still available for download on iTunes and Amazon.com although the season of giving has passed. Christmas comes only once a year, but knowing your ninety-nine cents might be all that's needed to finally discover the cure for this catastrophic disease, could last you a lifetime. This video is just too good not to share it again.
I hope this New Year continues with as many good things as it’s starting off with. Cheers to you all until I have more good news to share. Hopefully, that will be really soon.

Well said Felicia. I can't wait to see what else these guys have in store for us. I wasn't able to see the last tour, so I'm looking forward to any tour possibilities in the future.

Thanks for the great article, you've done it again Ultimate! You have a fan here in Canada. Oh!! I must say those are 3 of the most beatiful and talented men I have ever seen in one picture, they ALL have STAR quality!!

Lisa, thank you so much for your continued readership and following the great talents we post here. I'm a fan of all three of the men too and this soundtrack is going to blow their fans away. I must say having the three of them in one photo was purely a stroke of good luck. I happened across the photo while looking at pics on Rye's MySpace. I wrote Rye to ask his permission to use the photo unless he had the soundtrack art. In his gracious reply, he sent the album art and offered his permission to use both. Lucky for all of us!

Thank you! I wonder if they'll be in the three video highlight reels on the DVD? I haven't received my copy yet, so I guess I just have to wait to see it.
