I had the privilege of seeing you with Peter and Mary at the Fox theater in St Louis, MO. It must have been sometime in the 90s but was the thrill of a lifetime. Thank you.

Those concerts in the 90's were very special, weren't they? Glad to hear you were able to attend and came away with a great and lasting memory, Brian.

So many rich stories to go with these songs. So much heart that comes through. The variety, the passion, the wit all makes this a deep dive into life. Thanks for bringing it all together.

Had the pleasure of opening for and introducing you at New Malden, Surrey, England, back in the late 70's. You have been my musical inspiration over many years. Now looking forward to "Fazz". Thanks for the music.

Thanks for signing the guestbook, Roger. It is great to hear you've been a fan since that concert in the 70's. Hopefully, the music will continue to inspire musicians like you for decades to come.

Really enjoying the new CD Noel, and hope we get to cross paths again soon. Having been a PP&M fan from the beginning, it's been one of my great pleasures to meet and get to know all of you along with Dickie, Presto, Shelley, Sally, Tony, and the many other fans I've gotten to know along the way. I've been especially appreciative of the various backstage welcomes, and your personal response to my tragic house fire seven years ago. Keep on keepin' on.

So glad to hear you like Fazz, John. Those backstage crossings of paths are treasured memories for sure! Thanks for mentioning a few of the key folks from the P,P&M family.

So happy to hear new tunes to grow my Stook catalog. Fan since forever, but cherish the early days on Celestat and connecting there! Finally learning to play "Hymn"!

Wow! A reference to Celestat?! Those were the days! You aren't kidding when you say "forever". Glad to hear you are playing Hymn. Thanks for your longtime support. Warm regards, Lou.

I’ve admired your talent since way back in the early 60’s with PP&M and really love your Just Causes album. But my greatest pleasure was to attend a Bodyworks album recording at Belmont Church and then talk with you at the reception afterward at Koinonia here in Nashville. Bless You! ❤️🙏🏻🕊

So glad to hear of your appreciation for Just Causes, Dona. A lot of worthy non-profits continue to be supported through that effort. And thanks for mentioning Bodyworks. A lot of great memories there! Blessings to you as well.

My take is more personal than anything. Your music and personal energy have always brought me joy, even in brief conversations when I would see you when I was working in EBS/Hammond, or passing each other in Barncastle . ALS took that away from me. I’d love an opportunity to just sit and chat, or share a song together.

Got this album a couple of weeks back and I was absolutely amazed and delighted. Unfortunately. I will not be able to hear any of this live, as I live in Scotland. I don't think you will be making a tour of the UK in the future.

Hey Noel, FAZZ was in the mail today. Jeanne and I listened to it right away. Loved the intimacy, tenderness, and even the vulnerability of the tunes. It seemed very personal. Thanks so much. Great job. Love ya. Jeanne and me.

Noel, I got my copy of the new work yesterday. Wow!! I can't stop enjoying the jewels encased in this work. I have always considered you an outstanding, songwriter and guitar artist, but this takes those talents to a new and higher level. I know for years that "jazz guitar artist" would quietly and sometimes secretly show himself and made many of us "fans" long for more Stookey chords!

Noel,

I got my copy of the new work yesterday. Wow!! I can't stop enjoying the jewels encased in this work. I have always considered you an outstanding, songwriter and guitar artist, but this takes those talents to a new and higher level. I know for years that "jazz guitar artist" would quietly and sometimes secretly show himself and made many of us "fans" long for more Stookey chords! At the risk of sounding gushy, you are a true master my friend. Your breadth of feeling and invention is nothing short of amazing. I am blessed to be able to share so much of your musical magic over these many years.

God bless and save the Ukrainian people. Stay well and God bless.
