Several years ago, I read the wonderful book Change We Must by Nana Veary. In her later years, this amazing woman was officially proclaimed a “Living Treasure” by the Hawaii state legislature. I highly recommend her book. In it, Nana offers up a concept I think is true. During WWII she and a friend came up with an idea to use remnant material to make padded mittens so people could get items out of
Not too long ago, Ginger Baker died. Whenever I think of Ginger Baker, I think of my brother, Paul. Whenever I think of Paul I think of my heroes. Whenever I think of my heroes, I think of how attached I am to the music of the 1970’s. I am a few years too young to appreciate the brilliance of Ginger Baker.

She is running and dancing and singing and she can be seen fearlessly racing down a giant boom suspended above a rabid audience. It is spectacular, and so is she. And more than that, Tina was around 73 years old when this concert was filmed. That’s more than ten years older tha
When I was eight years old, I heard a radio disc jockey lamenting about the new music that kids were listening to. He couldn’t understand the appeal and didn’t know why Frank Sinatra music wasn’t good enough for the younger generation. Heck, he explained, he couldn’t even understand the words to these new songs. With Frank the lyrics were easy to understand. “I did it MY way.” Simple. Straightforw
Several years ago, just as the CD era was winding down, I bought a disc from a bargain bin at Walmart. The recording was by the band Foreigner, and it included several songs from the band live and in concert. My favorite track on the recording was a version of the song “Juke Box Hero.” In it, guitarist Mick Jones (formerly of the band Spooky Tooth) goes wild and does his best Jimmy Page. In fact,
