Sun Oct 17 14:37:36 2004 Referred By: Eric Woo Great new songs. I am a fan from back in the "can you see him" days and I can't think of the name - but the song with the last line"I think I'm gonna go back to those years". Do you still play those? I do - jamming w/ friends. Aloha.......

Mon Oct 25 1:25:57 2004 Referred By: Tom Leatherwood We met way back when...in the Canyon - in the '70's. Your dad worked for me for about a minute. Heard about the new album from Leatherwood. Hope to hear it soon.Those jams with you and Duke at Tom's were fantastic. Sure wish that had been recorded. It was some of the finest duet guitar music ever played!

Tue Aug 10 3:01:53 2004 I grew up in Hawaii where in the 70's acoustic music was king. I loved the local bands but most of all: America - Seals & Croft but most of all Batdorf & Rodney. I have been waiting many years for someone to release your alboms on CD since I've lost my 8-tracks sisnce moving to California in 1981. Sincerely - Rob

Sat Aug 14 7:49:08 2004 John - I have your past albums with Rodney.I grew up in Southern California. I have stayed with the folk rock style music you helped influence through the years - as my favorite. I promote a benefit each year in Woodland - California for the handicapped community. People like Sal Valentino of the Beau Brummels and Barry Melton from Country Joe and the Fish have played along with local talent. Music remains a big part of my life and I feel really good knowing you are still out there making music. I found the Batdorf and Rodney website recently. I wish you continued success. By the way our website Woodlandstock.com (the benefit we do is online). I could not find your CD's available for the first two...Off the Shelf and your Self Titled one. Best Regards - Lance Beem

Wed Sep 15 6:04:39 2004 We have most of the work you have done with Michael McClean and we really like your work. It would be great to see you live. You have the perfect voice to cover the Harry Nillsonn tune: "Without You". I know Mariah Carey did it a few years ago - but she ruined it. I would really like someone to do the song justice. Keep up the good work. I didn't know of all your other musical accomplishments till I saw your web-page.

Tue Sep 21 21:43:02 2004 Hi John - Thanks for all great music. My girlfriend then - and wife now have been fans for over 30 years. We've worn out several copies of all of your B&R and Silver albums - but still have a set that sound and look great. Weve updated to CDs and have added all of your B&Mc as well - and just ordered the All Wood and Stones CD. I hope those 85 people who heard you play in Malibu realize how lucky they were!

Wed Sep 22 14:16:25 2004 It's fun to know there's other B & R fans out there. I'm looking forward to the new CD "All Wood & Stones" I'm also very envious of the 85 who got to enjoy the home concert - what a treat. Maybe we'll get John B and others up to Idaho in the near future.

Tue Jun 22 17:13:45 2004 I loved your music in the 70's - I was a loud drummer then but harmony was in my soul - your records were trashed in a fire - I plan on getting your CD's - are the recordings done well? oh - it wont' matter

have been I longtime fan of Michael McLean. I have most enjoyed the cd's in which you have co-oberated with him on. In fact I have missed your voice on his recent worked. So I have decided to search the internet to see what you have been doing. I'm glad to find your website.

Thu Jul 08 11:01:30 2004I owned your first two B&R albums. Still have the second. The first was stolen by someone with obvious good taste in music. The guitar work was outstanding. It's good to see that they are reissued in CD. Hope to get the first one replaced. What got me interested in the search again was an article in Gutiar World Acoustic about the 100 Essential Acoustic Guitar albums. It should have been titled The 100 Essential Acoustic Guitar albums that did not require any research. Now if I could just find the second Michael Dinner album.

Sat Jul 10 13:46:30 2004 I have enjoyed your music very much since seeing Batdorf and Rodney open for Loggins and Messina (early 70's). Best of luck with your future projects. A folio of scores for solo or duet guitar would be nice!

Mon Jul 12 1:40:17 2004Have been a big fan - since the 3 albums; was an radio DJ in those days - so the listeners of WALF knew of Batdorf and Rodney......am glad to hear your teaming up again - and hope to find you on tour. I was the creator of a benefit concert series - one I've discontinued for the time being - featuring colleagues of your s such as Tom Chapin - Peter Yarrow - Noel Stookey - and Eric Andersen - who you've worked with. Will double check to see if your touring schedule is posted - would be my pleasure to see you in the NYC area; I'm east - on Long Island - but Westchester - Ct - NJ are all just a drive away.Good luck to you - and thanks for the hours and hours of great listening!!Barry
