  1. Hi Corren! Great to meet and visit with you last week at the Shrew’s House B&B! We loved our stay. I wish we could have stayed long enough to hear SOJO play a gig – we are huge big-band fans. Unfortunately I don’t think the sound files transferred to the CD – only the CD title. If it’s not too much trouble, could you burn another CD and mail it to me? (check the disc after you burn it to be sure the sound files transferred). My address is: Scott Hewitt 1846 Pheasant Hills Drive Loveland OH 45140-7177. We’re dying to hear your band! Thanks! Scott
