Pro Photographers of our aquaintence
We worked with Hoopes Photo ; agent of memory lane at a wedding in July 2008 ( Central Texas), and I noticed that she was energetic , non-invasive , attentive , persisitent and personally positive ( great personality). We recommend her highly . In fact , we were inspired to create a whole new link area for phographers that we work with . Clarissa Hoopes is an experienced , insightful wedding photographer . She worked the room like a female Torrero ( that's bullfighter to you). Peruse the website , contact her , but pop the question to the Bride first . Good idea .
Bill Hines is our new favorite photographer . he just has that mojo , period .
Friends and Allies
Selia Qynn , Houston songstress , has a greeting card line that is themed with ducks , birds and geese , mostly photgraphed by her at her own bird Habitat , a nationally recognized sanctuary .
I met Susie on the net from her sketches of Steve Marriott ( Small Faces , Humble Pie ). Really spot on renderings of his personality . The title refers to his comment after findng that Robert Plant had done his version of a Muddy Waters song .
Derek Sivers used to own CD Baby ( online CD distributor , which we are on ) , sold it to pursue his own extrordinary path of giving to the world at large . His insights and knowledge prove to be invaluable to music artists of any age or experience . A Zen thinker by nature , give him a comb and a pack of matches and he'll build an entertainment complex out of it ; so to speak . The kind of person that digs out a river for everyone , and will just ride on it too .
My brother Hardy and I are sons of an engineer . He took the mantle and now acts as consultant to the world of oil exploration , and much more . With experience in nuclear , offshore , and the American welding society , his company is your best ally in efficiency and inside knowledge in the field .
This site is absolutely fantastic . I heard about it's cnception and was a reality very quickly , You see , in several hundred years , this information will be well known , and it's core knowledge part of every curriculum .

The Crosley Vinyl to CD Recorder is the newest and best tool in the classic rock revolution . By taking old LPs and converting them to CD , now we have more access to the music as it was , and not just the few reissues that the record companies release with uneasiness in regard to their profit recovery . Also converts Cassesttes . In short , classic rock music is alot more than just the few hits that are represented by radio . Young people today don't know about Humble Pie and Trapeze ? they were at the very top of the business ! They were some of the best bands , but politics kills things . Or didn't you notice ?
Ruby Rocket is an Austin Texas model that I have not met , but she impressed me with her willfull portrayals of comic superheroes , which she is a huge fan of . A stunning woman whose star shines in the eyes of many .
Jackie is an incredible performer who wows his audiences with acrobatic stunts and martial arts prowess , which he honed at the Hong Kong Drama Academy as a child .

Classic Rock links
Greg Ridley : Humble Pie , Spooky Tooth - Bassist / Vocalist
Greg had this huge gruff scottish brouge when he sang , and it was just enormous sounding . Bass playing at it's soul music loving finest . He was a true afficiaonado of American soul , and you can hear it in everything he played .
Billy Thorpe was a great inspiration to me all the way in Texas . I just found out that he had passed on in 2008 . I will write more about him ; one of favorite recording artists , very soon .
Once in a great while i discover an artist who redefines the guitar for me . Jeff is probably going to be the one that noone can top . So original and honest , a man who's tough struggles were a secret to most . He never comlpained , but he did inspire alot of musicians like myself . 'Angel Eyes' remains as a mainstay of my solo act . He passed from this life in 2008 . He will be dearly missed .( comment : mark campbell )
Bad Company and Free's co-founding drummer is also a great singer /songwriter who wrote many of those hits . Still at it , sounding great .
David Coverdale is one of my top five singers , of which there are ten . An original artist who has enjoyed rave reviews as well as criticism ; nice work if you can get it . The band is back with a new live CD " Standing in the Shadow of the Blues " and due in May 2008 , and new studio release "Good to be Bad" . Back with a wicked grin and a wild dog howl .
Our earliest influences came from our own neighborhood of Houston Texas . Mark Salmon ( drums) and I ( Mark Campbell , guitar ) drove past their office listening to "Just got Paid " and the rest of Rio Grande Mud in his Camaro . Before that , I thought all bands like this lived far away . We were teenagers then , and in some ways , maybe we still are . Aw Shucks .
Gregg is still alive and well , playing the blues and rocking out with heart and soul .
This website and the new record "Coming up for Air" is a way of showing my appreciation for all those who dare to not only dream, but to also follow those dreams up the mountain! I am honored to have you here. Comment : Dan Reed
The original bandmembers Stu Cook and Doug Clifford in their own version of the band . Our hats are off to these guys !
Dean Scott , entertainer deluxe , was the first profeesional musician that ever invited me on stage to jam with my guitar . My band at the time , J.C. Rock , which was myself and the Callaway brothers , James and John , coaxed me into sneaking into the Village Inn Pizza restaurant and Club on Westheimer in Houston in 1972 . We were underaged and , it gave me the confidence at that juncture to follow my dream on stage and airwaves . His band played " I'm Going Down " at my request , and the rest is a blur . Anyway , thanks , Dean . You were always on the Johnny Carson Show and then got to meet you . A real star .
B.J. Thomas has a new CD October 5th 2007 , called Love to Burn . My favorite singer ( comment MC)
What can we say about Led Zeppelin that you don't already know ? You can't say that the music is old , because that sounds rediculous ; considering that it sounds more modern and relevant than alot of modern rock music today , IMHO.
Kenny Jones , John Hart , Rick Wills , all veterans of the British and world rock scene , have a new CD , " Any Day Now" , which echoes the very best of Classic Rock greats , because they ARE classic rock greats . One fine album. Members of The Who , Faces , Small faces , Frampton , Foreigner , Bad Company . Guest players include Ronnie Wood , Ian MacLagan and many others .
The Minstrel in the Gallery is still Old enough to Rock and Roll and too young to ........ not be rocking . Ian Anderson and Martin Barre , original members carry the torch ; still a potent creative force . A new Live CD and DVD in 2007 , Live at Montreaux .
Atlantis ( Germany) was one of those lucky import finds for me . I never thought I would be able to watch video from their 1983 reunion gig at the Hamburg Fabrik .
Inga Rumpf is one of my all time favorite singers . Her bands Atlantis and Frumpy were the 13 hour addition to my music knowledge base that I always treasured . In the 70's she was rock , funk , jazz , soul, blues fusion ; prog rock . She's still going on strong in Berlin , currently on tour with B.B. King .
Canadian rock chanteuse ...... she's current with a classic rock sound . Soulful vocals , but the new CD ( 2006) is more acoustic , she calls it " experimental bluegrass" . I think of her as the female Paul Rodgers.
From Wales he came in the 1960's , and still rocking today in Vegas and beyond . The voice , truly one of a kind . The Man !
Not a Classic Rock band ! They are active and current with their 2005 CD release " Rapture of the Deep" . Younger bands are going to have to think of something quick .... DP's back ( and never been away ) . Also see www.thehighwaystar.com
Mr. Gillan's voice is recognizable on most DeepPurple albums , his own solo releases as Gillan , Ian Gillan Band , Garth Rockett and the Moonshiners , Episode Six , The Javelins , as well as the original "J " in J.C. Superstar . His latest solo release can be seen and heard on www.gillansinn.com . His latest Deep Purple release from 2005 ," Rapture of the Deep" can be read about at www.thehighwaystar.com
Roger Glover is one of the three remaining original members of Deep Purple , Bassist of exceptional and exceeding talent and worth , producer of countless recording artists among which many are counted , and a painter as well , which I didn't know until I bought " Rapture of the Deep " Deep Purple's 2005 release . His art style is varied and inspired , another fascinating facet of this living rock legend .
The Southern Steel Guitarist of Dixie Dregs and Deep Purple has a great website with plenty of interesting features . Check out the new Deep Purple featuring Steve's innovative guitar writing and arrangements . In my opinion the new is as good or better .
The Classic Guitarist and Vocalist of Humble Pie has a new CD : "Fingerprints " , not to be mistaken for "fingertips". All instrumental . His last CD , " Now " from 2003 , is an exceptional work . It's one of my "favrite recrds".
Neil has a new CD . Themed as a war protest album , but much more . Upon listening to the lyrics , this collection proves to be one of the most well thought , cohesive albums of all time .
John Kay and Steppenwolf : Still going strong on that Magic Carpet Ride . One of the best Rock and Roll bands of all time .
Bad Company's vocalist . Free's singer . The Law's shouter . The Firm's crooner . Queen's new frontman . And now I submit my wish : Mr. Rodgers , please sit in with us for a song or two ? Front our band ?
The most complete and dedicated website in tribute to one of the greatest rock bands in history . Keeping the memory of Marriott and Ridley alive . Jerry Shirley and Greg released a brand new HP CD in 2003 called Back on Track , featuring Bob Tench and Jones Gang / Bad Company / Foghat Guitarist Dave Buckett Colwell .
The original piano driven 70's rock band who evolved from California's hitmaker 'Spirit ' . Theyr'e back with a strong reunion CD . One of our big influences .
The original Small Faces / Faces keyboard player , lifetime honorary member of the Rolling Stones . Now resides in the Austin , Texas area
From Trapeze to Deep Purple , Hughes/Thrall and his many solo albums , the most productive artist on the planet . he has a new CD every year , and sometimes ..... more than that . We are the music and he's just the band ; at least that's what the man says . First Nuclear Kitchen is the neame of the latest release in 2008 .
Lead Vocalist for Fleetwood Mac ( mid - 1990's) and the Zoo . She's the greatest thing since sugar . Designed and maintained by Lisa Marvin ( Bubco Design ) . Recently with the Sam Moore show .

Awareness of the number One problem causing and compounding all of the other World Problems . Think about it , concerning oil related conflicts , how could they be problematic if there were no excessively large numbers of people on the planet ? This is no trifle : as warning to all Human life . Quote of the past century : "Human beings have been cut off from their roots since time immemorial . It creates a habit of separatism , restarting over and over until brother recognises brother no more ; religions step in to deepen the rift , and mistakenly backed by an imagined 'godly' agenda , brother sets against brother in holy wars that are disguised as humanitarian efforts and missions of freedom . Who's right and who's wrong ? Noone near here - since it is a case of the blind fighting the blind . social activities and practices of the "catholic" organizations are detrimental and even dangerous for the community as a whole, here and everywhere. I mention here only the fight against birth control at a time when overpopulation in various countries has become a serious threat to the health of people and a grave obstacle to any attempt to organize peace on this planet." [Albert Einstein -- letter, 1954

At a time when the earth is being overwhelmed by it;s growing masses , the majority of people are suspiciously ignorant as tumbleweeds about the subject . Soon enough , the idea will appear on some news program , when it's far too late , and still most will be unaware , as usual . So the effort enhances to supply the dire need for commnication on this important topic .

A worldwide birthstop only means that the planet , and ourselves , can have a chance to recover from the corrosive effects of massive overpopulation . It is an agreement to control the growth which is absolutely out of control .
