One of my closest friends -- Mike Bearman, a professional musician here for many years who plays regularly with some of the region's top bands -- put together a CD that originally was going to be just for his Mother, who is going through some health problems. Then he had an idea.
The music that you hear as you look at this page are snippets of the tunes on the CD. The collection is not available for purchase but you can get a copy with a contribution (minimum $10) to the Siteman Cancer Center.
Bearman (he's the runty little guy in the photo at right) has funded this project completely out of his own pocket; please make your contribution payable to Siteman Cancer Center and receive in return a magical CD, with great tunes played by well-known local musicians.
