"Just got Fire and Soul in the mail! Yes Steelheart is the hit! Love the new sound although it’s still the Bodyguerra I loved since the first record...great production and especially like solo in Fire and Soul...Ela has a very strong and unique voice...love it...funny cause I just had one listen! Fantastic! Also love the Christmas tune,beautiful! Thanks again for thinking of Colin and myself.....keep up the great music my friend! Cheers!"
