Family News: Henry May
 
The last two months of 2009 brought some surprises. Andy spent the first part of November with his brother, Henry, in California, where Henry was undergoing a series of brain surgeries to repair a life-threatening brain AVM (arteriovenous malformation) and hemorrhage. The amazing, brilliant, miraculous news is that Henry is home, doing great, and expected to make a full recovery in time.
 
Henry May Dreamin' the Blues cover artHenry is a master blues guitar stylist. To celebrate him, his music, and his recovery, we are running a special on his CD, Dreamin' the Blues.
 
It always lifts Henry's spirits to hear from people who enjoy his music, so be sure to drop him a note: email Henry. Maybe we can talk him into recording a new CD this year!
