Cello is my first instrument, then piano, drums, bass, violin, recorder, saxophone, but I'd never play them live!
I taught myself how to use a multi-track tape recorder, which was the first time I recorded myself.
We went for the best overall feel on each song. There are no musical overdubs at all. It's a true live record; it's one of the few true live records out there.

I am proud of my record as Colorado's State Treasurer. I have protected the taxpayer's money and grown the value of the state's investments in a very challenging economy.
