  • Jerry Goodman (Chicago, Illinois, March 16, 1949) Is an American Violinist Best Known for Playing Electric Violin in the Bands T
    Jerry Goodman (Chicago, Illinois, March 16, 1949) is an American violinist best known for playing electric violin in the bands The Flock and the jazz fusion Mahavishnu Orchestra. Goodman actually began his musical career as The Flock's roadie before joining the band on violin. Trained in the conservatory, both of his parents were in the string section of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. His uncle was the noted composer and jazz pianist Marty Rubenstein. After his 1970 appearance on John McLaughlin's album My Goal's Beyond, he became a member of McLaughlin's original Mahavishnu Orchestra lineup until the band broke up in 1973, and was viewed as a soloist of equal virtuosity to McLaughlin, keyboardist Jan Hammer and drummer Billy Cobham. In 1975, after Mahavishnu, Goodman recorded the album Like Children with Mahavishnu keyboard alumnus Jan Hammer. Starting in 1985 he recorded three solo albums for Private Music -- On the Future of Aviation, Ariel, and the live album It's Alive with luminaries such as Fred Simon and Jim Hines—and went on tour with his own band, as well as with Shadowfax and The Dixie Dregs. He scored Lily Tomlin's The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe and is the featured violinist on numerous film soundtracks, including Billy Crystal's Mr. Saturday Night and Steve Martin's Dirty Rotten Scoundrels . His violin can be heard on more than fifty albums from artists ranging from Toots Thielemans to Hall & Oates to Styx to Jordan Rudess to Choking Ghost to Derek Sherinian. Goodman has appeared on four of Sherinian's solo records - Inertia (2001), Black Utopia (2003), Mythology (2004), and Blood of the Snake (2006) In 1993, Goodman joined the American instrumental band, The Dixie Dregs, fronted by guitarist Steve Morse.

  • Christmas Under Wraps’
    ‘CHRISTMAS UNDER WRAPS’ CAST BIOS CANDACE CAMERON BURE (Lauren Brunell) – Candace Cameron Bure realized early that it was her desire to be an actress. Born in 1976 to Robert and Barbara Cameron, she grew up watching her older brother Kirk Cameron star in the popular show “Growing Pains.” It was from this experience that Cameron Bure knew that she wanted to pursue acting. At the age of 5, she appeared in several national television commercials and prime-time shows like “St. Elsewhere,” and “Who’s The Boss.” She even had the opportunity to take on a small role in her brother’s show “Growing Pains.” It was in 1987 however, that Cameron Bure took on the most important role of her young life as Donna Jo "D.J." Tanner on the series “Full House.” Viewers watched Cameron Bure grow up during the show's eight-year run and maintained an unwavering affection for her, even as she grew older. Despite being off the air since 1995, “Full House” still ranks as one of the most successful series of all time. While much of her success was in television, Cameron Bure also gained starring roles in feature films. Joining the long tradition of John Hughes movies, she acted alongside Eric Stoltz and Mary Stuart Masterson in “Some Kind of Wonderful” in 1987. She then had the opportunity to work with acting greats Tom Hanks and Sally Field in the 1988 comedy, “Punchline.” After “Full House” wrapped its last season, Cameron Bure met her future husband, professional hockey player Valeri Bure and began making her own full house.

  • Carlos Santana & John Mclaughlin's 1973 Masterpiece Love Devotion
    Sound Colour Vibration Carlos Santana & John McLaughlin’s 1973 Masterpiece Love Devotion Surrender Reissued As Gatefold LP With Speakers Corner | Music Reissues Posted by Sound Colour Vibration on May 5, 2015 · Leave a Comment Carlos Santana & John McLaughlin’s 1973 Masterpiece Love Devotion Surrender Reissued As Gatefold LP With Speakers Corner | Music Reissues by Erik Otis When I first read the John McLaughlin biography Go Ahead John, author Paul Stump gave the 1973 LP Love Devotion Surrender a fairly bad review and it was shortly after this lasting impression that I was exposed to the collaborative record between guitar icons Carlos Santana and John McLaughlin. Many reviews upon its release were in a more negative slant then positive and it was a shock after initially hearing it, considering how soulful, spiritual and sophisticated the music is and how much I fell in love with the album right away. In a world full of expectations and concrete view points, I can see how this album would fly over some heads during the day, taking on a much different route then pop structures spoke for of the era and even going beyond the fusion voyages of many musicians around them. An enactment of the full spiritual awakening both musicians were finding through guru Sri Chinmoy, these teachings brought them together in a unique way and they executed on stunning levels with a cast that included Larry Young (org), Doug Rauch (b), Armando Peraza (cga), Billy Cobham, Don Alias, Jan Hammer and Mike Shrieve. The incorporation of John Coltrane covers and themes inspired form his works is a staple of the record’s identity, produced and released for those who were tapping into energy far outside of the radio waves of the day.
