   There are all sorts of good groups in the different regions.  Here around   
   the Chattanooga area we have several including such as Avery Trace, Southern   
   Breeze, and my old group Southern Cross.  If you don't mind a long email,   
   send me your address and I will cut an MP3 of one of our original albums and   
   send it to you.  It will be 12 songs written and done by us about 3 years   
   ago.  I own these songs but I can't send you the Avery Trace, or the   
   Southern Breeze material without their permission.
