Birthday Pizza!

I made this Margherita pizza in a style as closely as I could to what we had in Naples, Italy.

All in attendance agreed it was terrifically tasty.

It was a good birthday, and you can here me sing with my birthday present here.

Excellent! Lida Rose is not a simple harmony tune either.

Was that a solo/duet or was it a duet!??
I suspected it could be either!!
Love, GpaZ

I should have elaborated on what my present was.

It was a Samson C01U USB Studio Condenser Microphone. It came with software that allows overlaying multiple tracks. So, it was a duet with my pre-recorded self.

The software makes doing such a thing fairly trivial. Still some care needs to be taken in providing timing cues to your future self.

This microphone is really pretty neat. It has a cardioid reception pattern, which almost completely ignores background noise, while rendering the performer in front of the mic with high fidelity.

Wow James, you blew our minds, how fun is that! You've taken a long trip to celebrate this birthday,to the past for the Music Man audio and across the ocean to Naples for the pizza recipe! Glad you made it.
