TAs I write and reflect, I realize that I can never tell it all but I can distill it into small gulps and hopefully impart a little information , inspiration, a few laughs, and perhaps a sobering look at the music business from a soldier in the trenches standpoint. Like many of you reading, I aspired to reach the top. The times I reached these high pinnacles I discovered that basically the only difference between the top and the bottom is the smell of the cologne and the price of the haircuts. The people are basically the same. Remember that. Miss Minnie Pearl called me on the phone one day when I was at Lobo Records in 16 th Avenue in the early 1980s. She had heard my single, Among Grandma’s Souvenirs , and wanted to call me and basically invite me to meet with her.

Orphaned at a young age, Jane is placed in the care of her wealthy aunt Mrs Reed, who neglects her in favour of her own three spoiled children. Jane is branded a liar, and Mrs Reed sends her to the grim and joyless Lowood School where she stays until she is 19. Determined to make the best of her life, Jane takes a position as a governess at Thornfield Hall, the home of the alluring and unpredictable Edward Rochester. It is here that Jane’s journey into the world, and as a woman, begins. Writer Sandy Welch (North And South, Magnificent Seven), producer Diederick Santer (Shakespeare Retold – Much Ado About Nothing) and director Susanna White (Bleak House) join forces to bring this ever-popular tale of passion, colour, madness and gothic horror to BBC One. Producer Diederick Santer says: “Sandy’s brand-new adaptation brings to life Jane’s inner world with beauty, humour and, at times, great sadness. We hope that her original take on the story will be enjoyed as much by long- term fans of the book as by those who have never read it.” The serial also stars Francesca Annis as Lady Ingram, Christina Cole as Blanche Ingram, Lorraine Ashbourne as Mrs Fairfax, Pam Ferris as Grace Poole and Tara Fitzgerald as Mrs Reed.

  • A Little Music for the Soul
    A Little Music for the Soul During my early Jr. High School years (1952-1954) I began listening to the radio and found that Rhythm and Blues, then later that hard blues, was to my a liking. Prior to the 1950’s the music rage was Big Band and Swing and hearing it brings back fond memories of my youth when my parents would listen to it for hours. However, a new kind of sound began to fill the airways that really became popular with the younger crowd; “Rock and Roll.” Teenagers in our neighborhood would gather in someone's backyard and dance to the new "rock" music using 78 - RPM record players and later 45-RPM records were just beginning to appear on the scene. While visiting with Junior High School friends at their home we would sit by their swimming pool and talk the teenage talk, giggle and try to impress girls with our vast knowledge and experience. My girlfriend told me they had a guitar and would I like to play it. Before that time I had played a ukulele a little and my father was a guitar player, but the instrument did not hold any interest with me. That was the first time I picked up a guitar and those first notes would spark my interest in making music that would last the rest of my life. At the moment it may have been more to impress my girlfriend, but something clicked inside as my fingers picked at the strings. In those days teenagers were expected to earn spending money after school and my jobs included mowing lawns, working at a gas station, a grocery store and a paper route, and so on.
