Let us know what you think of the new design, and while you are at it, buy a copy of Jace Everett’s new release, Mr. Good Times. It will last forever.

“Mr. Good Times” is finally available in the U S of A… and anywhere else for that matter! Do you want to go to there? Then, please, by all means… Order MR.GOOD TIMES here!

Buy four copies and have a coaster set! Buy a dozen and play frisbee golf!! Hell, buy a gross and just give them away to folks!!! But by all means, get at least one copy of my latest opus. It’s schizophrenic rock and roll with just a touch of twang and bound to be the feel good hit of last summer. Don’t say I didn’t warn you…..
