He's been featured in the British Bandsman and even has a solo CD out called Whistling Down the Wind.

We are pleased to announce the release, on the Egon label,

Why all the different labels?

There's Doyen, SP&S, Sforza and Egon but they all seem to emanate from the same stable.

SP&S is for Salvation Army groups only.
Doyen titles are recorded by Doyen Recordings Ltd.
Egon titles are recorded by B&H Sound Services Ltd.

We don't issue recordings on a Sforza label.

After deciding I didn't need another Christmas CD, I read the review on 4barsrest and immediately ordered Simple Gifts. It was miraculously delivered in one week and has hardly left my CD player since. This is a great recording and belongs on your "Must Have" list. Congratulations to YBS and all involved.
