As tears flood my eyes, I write these few words about my dear friend and brother in Christ, Dave Lutz.

I first met and heard Dave sing at Camp Gunninson in 1979 and I was impressed by his God inspired talent.

When I got back to HQ, I told V.P. That we should bring Dave to New Knoxville to be a part Of Way Prod. Dave and his lovely wife Terry, did come and through the years of Dave's involment with Way Prod., he gave his all in all. His songs and love for God's people shall forever remain with us.

Dave, Doug McMullan, and J.P. were the best of friends and used to get together to pick and sing them good ole'country tunes. I called them the Outlaws because them good old boys were certainly not of the law. They were free in Christ.

In 1996, Dave came to see me when I was living in Cleveland Oh., and stayed at my home for a couple of days. We talked about many things and how the cold wind of change was happening down on the farm in New Knoxville. Soon thereafter, Dave decided to move on.

The last time I was with Dave was in 2002 at the CFF Reunion. Dave performed several of his wonderful songs that thrlled our hearts. His son, David, played the fiddle on a few of the tunes.

In closing I will say, Dave, there will come a day we shall be together again and play Cowboys And Christians.

A Friend Of Dave's

Dave was one of a kind , and no one that I know will ever be able to fill his cowboy boots. I will sadly miss my wonderful friend.

Around 2002, Dave made a CD called Taste And See, that has Dave playing his guitar to accomany his rich, vibrant bairtone voice. You may be able to obtain this CD through CFF.

Hi Joe;

There are several songs titled A Song In The Night .Was it a country gospel,contemporary gospel or was it a way prod.origanal ?

God Bless You Brother

Chatty Kat;

Come on down so we can be neighbors again :)

Hi Everyone;

Thank you all so very much for your kind heart felt words about my Mom's passing away,she was a great lady. She loved God and His Son Jesus Christ with all her heart, soul mind and strength. When The Lord returns for us all we shall be together again.

For the past several years I was Mom's primary care person and pretty much put my life on hold and I am happy that I did. I knew in my heart that is what I should do.

Moony and me are doing super and moving on to do the things God has called us to do. Moony is a wonderful wife beyond measure that I thank God for every day.

Lately I have not posted anyything but later on I shall return to let you all know what is going on with us. Well not everything !!!

God Bless You All May Today Be The Best Day Of Your Life.

Still Holding On

Ted

Calling Ted, calling Ted!!!!

Hey -- are you keeping up with what your bride is up to (these days)??!!

David

She tells me everthing (and I mean EVERYTHING). By the way, who do you supposed helped with the dancing music. There's never a dull moment around here. :B)

Doglover;

What you need is A CD recorder either stand alone or use the one

in your computer .Plug the red and white audio cable outs from you record player into the CD recorder

ajust the levels and record away. Read manuals fiirst.

If you use your computer to record from records to CD you will need a program or two to do that,There sre several inexpensive ones available like LP Ripper and etc.

Since I don't know what you have to work with I can't help you very much.

God Bless

Say there is one other thing I would like to add .

A few months ago I posted that if any of you would like to have FREE the four CD'S I have recorded

in my little home studio that I would send them to you free of charge.And I did send out a bunch.

However I think I missed sending to some of you that requested me to do so..What happened was I lost a lot of address's I had in a file .So if any of you did not get your copies PLEASE resend me your mailing address by email and I will get them out to you soon after I get redialed in again in FL.

The Cd's are not state of the art stuff but they will pass.......maybe

email.........ferrellsplace@cs.com

Yep David I caught it don't know why this dumb computer did that and kept copying the same reply over and over .Do you think it's possesed or ?

. Woops what the hey is going on with this post the computer keeps posting my reply over and over

Thomas most of the music you are asking about I have on records.Some I have already copied to CD'S

After I get moved to FL.and get my studio dialed in again I will see what I can do to make you some CD copies Can't promise you when that will be but I will get to it sooner orl later.

As for Stevie and Jamies daughter Jolie she is married has children and lives in Denver Co.Man oh man I recall the day she was born .Stevie and Jamie had a son also and his name is Chase and he is doing super too

Later on send me your snail mail address but I think I have it anyway from when I mailed you Doug McMullans CD.

Moon Pie;

There is only one reason that I am moving to hurricane alley and that reason is

YOU!!!!!

Ok new title for band how about ...Ted and The AARP Harpers females included

Moony and Kathy;

Well if that looks anything like me I will take that as a compliment.

Sure does make me want to shave of a few pounds or more

3 or so years ago Milford Bowen asked me "Ted when you are performing do you still get down on your

knees' I told Milford yes I sure do get down on my knees but lately the problem I have is getting back up

Oh by the way my new band is called Ted and The AARP Boys

ALA you are the best and I sure love your posts and sense of humor :)

Satori

Boise speakers are good for some things commerical products the older 601 series that I have used for PA but when it comes to recording and using for near field monitors like forget it.

So far the best studio monitors I have found and use are Behinger's Powered Trurh Monitors and they don't cost an arm and a leg either

After the mix and I want to hear the full sound than the Cerwin Vega's get cranked Then when I have my jollys I take the so called final mix and play it on a squack box ( cheap cd player) and if it sounds halfway decent perhaps I just might have something going.

Anyways Socks did not mean to derail your guitar thread eh! Satori

Socks back on top where he deserves to be The cat has paid his dues

Hey JR

Nice to see you and the rest sharing about your guitars You six and twelve string pickers are a family you know.

Was talking to Lepenski the other day and I thought about the time we talked about doing a rockin' down home blues band. Man we would have rocked the joint for sure .

John.I have played all the cuts I have of you for my Moony and told her listen to that ain't that dude the best .He plays with heart from the depths of his soul and she agree's cause the gal knows talent

Love you my dear friend say hello to Janet for me

Your Friend Forever

Ted
