What's going on with Maynard's Groovy Bible Tunes, from day to day...
God can do (Immeasura-bubbly) gets a make-over
I've re-recorded "God can do", aka "Immeasura-bubbly".
It's one of my favourites, and had the oldest recording - from a live recording at a holiday club. I'm gradually re-doing the oldest recordings, so it was next in line. I'm quite pleased with the result, but I'm not entirely sure its better than the old one...
The song is based on Ephesians 3:20-21, and 3:14-19 just before it. The kids love it, I guess because it's easy to remember and sing, and the actions are fun.
It's on the jukebox: Immeasura-bubbly

Easter Review
"Maynard's" has had a great Easter! Thanks for your support.
We've had increasing hits in the run-up to Easter, with lots of tracks being listened to and lots of sheet-music downloads.
Favourites over the period have been:
For Sheet Music: Good Friday, Most Important, So this is how, and Will you sing? (in that order)
For Listening: the same, in a slightly different order!!!
"Good Friday" has been the out-and-out hit, soaring over the others.
Great - hope it brings glory to God, and helps people to trust in Jesus
Jukebox Updates
Now that flowplayer is working properly, I've started to add more features to the Jukebox.
The first one is something I need when I'm getting ready for kids' assemblies - a way of seeing all the actions alongside the song so that I can practice doing them!
So, now, you click the [more info] box, or the text underneath,
and you get an actions pop-up!
Ace.
New CD
I've been asked for a specific Easter CD, so I've made one - a compilation of the most Easter-y songs. In particular it's got three new songs that haven't been on CD before: Most Important, Good Friday, and Luke 19v10.
I'm still planning to make a 'proper' new CD - ie all new songs - songs that haven't been on one of the other (non-compilation) CDs! I'm nearly there.... still a couple of recordings to do, and a load of sheet music.
The run-up to Easter is proving to be busy at work - excitingly - but that does stop me doing much on the songs for the moment. So it'll be after Easter before I get the new CD out.
I'd still like to 'up' the production values, and make something that someone might want to sell in a shop - perhaps by having more songs with kids singing on them. I just don't seem to be able to make the time right now - or even to plan the time! Argh!

March thoughts...
March has begun, and...
- Numbers visiting the site have been going up and up - hooray!
- I must do something about getting a newsletter out
- I've got to publish a couple of Holiday Club songs - "Galilee" and "Jesus has a party" - both are recorded, but need sheet music etc.
- I'm planning to record some of my songs with the kids from our church kids club - it's just taking me a while to get that organised.
- I've also got to get rid of some of the old recordings - even I cringe when I hear them!
