This page is
just a few of my personal favorite
musicians and singers. As I recall more I will post here in the future.
I have included on this page two that are personal friends of mine,
Bum Bar
Bastards (Jim Davidson)
& Tom Parella.
You can purchase Their CD's from the links provided. A special thanks to
YouTube for the videos. Just a sampling of what you can find through the
artist's official page links.
All singers and artists on this page have a distinct style and
type of voice I find when listening to them reach deep down within my
soul and touch something primal and basic within me.
Quite an eclectic group if
I do say so myself.
I hope you enjoy the selection I have chosen. I have included
each with a link to their personal websites, so that CD's can be purchased
or just to hear more of their music.

Bum
Bar Bastards
These are some very long time friends of mine
Who back in the time
of free expression were.
doing just that over
the phone lines.
They were called prank
calls then and what pranksters and
.
innovators they were.
As we all were in the
late 60's and early
70's very expressive and very
creative and oh so very vocal. So come and
relieve some
that time's humor and mischief.
But for those parent's out there you might want to have
under-age children pass on the listening.
Walela,
the Cherokee word for Hummingbird and the symbol of inspiration
for this family of women singers. They are
Rita Coolidge, her sister Priscilla Coolidge, and
Priscilla's daughter Laura Satterfield.

My friend Jim Davidson turned me onto
these guys in the early 70's
and I went to several of their concerts
through the years.
It is a long love affair with their music that
continues today and for all time.
Rick Nelson
My Favorite Rick Nelson Song
Garden Party

Stevie Ray Vaughan
Gone way to soon.
What a treasure he was and he is missed by
all of us.
Tom Jones
Nina Simone
Simone had a reputation in the music industry for being volatile and
sometimes difficult to deal with, a characterization with which she
strenuously took issue. In 1995, she shot and wounded her neighbor's
son with a pneumatic pistol after his laughter disturbed her
concentration. She also fired a gun at a record company executive
whom she accused of stealing royalties. It is now recognized that
this "difficulty" was the result of bipolar disorder. Simone
reluctantly took medication for her condition from the mid-1960s on.
All this was only known to a small group of intimates, and kept out
of public view for many years, until the biography Break Down And
Let It All Out written by Sylvia Hampton and David Nathan
revealed this secret in 2004.
Musician/Vocalist/Songwriter
(SESAC)family.
Like a bartender mixing cocktails, musician/vocalist/songwriter Tom
Parella
blends elements of Rock,
Country, R&B, Latin, Gospel, Folk & Jazz in
varying degrees from song to song.
Whether performing
solo-acoustic or with a band, tightly
constructed songs, thoughtful lyrics and strong melodies
characterize Parella's music. Please stop by his site and hear
some of his music. It is an experience of spirituality
letting his music surround your senses.
Thanks Tom for playing "Rocky Raccoon" every time I asked.

My favorite Beatle, quiet, soft spoken,
spiritual with such an intensity of soul.
This shows in his writing and his music. I first say him as in the
theater, waiting in line with all
those screaming girls just like me to see A Hard Day's Night. Then
Ed Sullivan, just focused
completely on this young boy named George.
