"Send You My Love", is a song that may not have been written if not for my persistent nagging. You see, Steve had a rack of cassette tapes filled with music. Many of them had no lyrics, which was right up my alley. Every time Steve played a track, he had to stop because I would interrupt by shouting, “go back.. .go back to that track, it sounds good!” You got something?” he would ask. The phrase, send you my love, stuck in my mind. Steve was recording my vocals each time the track was played, verse after verse.

Looking back now, it’s hard to believe the sound quality coming from the equipment he had at the time. A Tascam 4-track cassette recorder, mini Casio keyboard, an Alesis MMT-8 sequencer, eight track Yamaha mixer, Roland sound module and sampler, Yamaha TX 81Z, and a $20 dollar Realistic microphone purchased from Radio Shack. All used to create fantastic 4-track demos.

We would later re-record those same sequenced tracks for what became “Send U My Love” in a professional recording studio. My lead vocal was replaced with that of Debbie Commodore. Some guitar was also added. The guitar solo and rhythm guitar parts were played by guitar wizard/god, Michael Bailey. That version is appropriately titled, "Send U My Love (The Fierce Guitar Reprise)" and is also on the EP, along with three other versions of the song.

You can purchase “Send U My Love” and the new album titled, "Unfinished Business" by CBatch & Herring on I-Tunes, Amazon, Cd Baby, and YouTube. You can hear more songs by going to: Steve and I hope you enjoy all the music written by Stephen Cumberbatch and James Buddy Herring a/k/a C'batch & Herring.

Many thanks to you all and we send you our love. ..Special delivery. James "Buddy" Herring Janese Music
