Dear ACOUSTIC RAINBOW:
I received the new compilation Acoustic Rainbow. The CD is really good and
it features so many great artists and bands that I will contact directly to
get their full length album. Some were not new to me - for example Gwen
Swick and Rise. In fact I already have played their works a lot - but most
of them were true and delightful surprises.

Dear ACOUSTIC RAINBOW:
Many many thanks for sending us Acoustic Rainbow, another great radio
sampler. I think we'll probably play all tracks over the coming weeks. Also,
the copy of the Rise CD you sent is handy in that we can now circulate a
copy around our various DJs so they can take the disc home and get really
familiar with the songs.

as well. Keep up the good work and rest assured that I promote the artists."
