A CULTURE HOOKED ON OIL -
Do we even have a choice anymore of whether to drive or not?
Face it, our society is car-happy, and I'm talking rev the engine,
let it burn, straight addicted to gas-guzzling beasts! A slight
glance into the media will prove my point that the major car
manufacturers are spending multitudes more on marketing SUV's
than they are on whatever hybrids or economical mileage models
that are available today. Perhaps if a high-class dealer, like
Mercedes or BMW were to really push an ad campaign
about their brand new, more "earth-friendly" vehicles,
it might start a trend among people who can afford to be conscious
of such things. However for the majority of Americans, our main
focus is getting to and fr0om either work, or the stores we must
frequent during our typical routines. The way in which most suburban
areas have spread, without planning by civil engineers prior
to their developments, has left our cities widely in convenient
in nature, where use of freeway is necessary to existence as
we know it. Now it is relatively well - known that the real culprit
for outrageous levels of Carbon Dioxide being released into the
atmosphere is not smokestacks or big businesses as much as it
is the exhaust pipes from millions of cars crammed onto the pavement
daily. his is slightly more complicated to regulate considering
the sheer amount of contributors to the problem . Nevertheless
the negative effects of smog and global warming are dispersed
across the earth, without any sense of causation or blame.They
call these "social costs", meaning the entire public
picks up the pollution tab, usually paying by way of suffering
health risks. So what can be done to alleviate the stress on
the environment, in regards to meeting the Kyoto Protocol or
the conflict...(read more) |

 The year was 1966 if my mush of a brain
recalls and excitement was in the air. My new band, The Death,
was scheduled to open for none other than the king of soul, Mr.
James Brown and the Famous Flames. It would be an unusual line-up.
The Death was like a psychedelic in-your-face type of a band
and The Flames were as tight as a cork in a bottle of Chateau
Palmer Bordeaux wine. Nevertheless, we felt like we were pros.
Our dressing room had the sweet sent of jock essence and the
different names carved in the old wooden benches gave me a deja
vu of my hockey days. I was sitting waiting for the stage manager
to come and give us the cue when the man himself walked by. Noticing
me, he stopped and asked, "you know where our dressing room
is brother?" Ah, ah yeah, it's the one right across from
the restrooms", I replied. "You must be the opening
act," he said. "Yes sir, we are", I answered.
"Sir? Come now, call me James." Wow, James Brown asked
me to call him James...(read more James) (google photo) |

Blogger:
Mr Moore is a American Hero.
A true man of freedom with the guts to speak the truth. He pokes
through the lies of the far right and brings to light what I
feel is the truth. He should go down in history as a advocate
for the masses, the poor and the middle class in the political
jungle controled by the far right. Moore is a true American Hero.
VDB:
Michael Moore will truly go
down in history, as a 400 pound avocado...excuse me did you say
advocate. I love when the left argues with the left they both
end up being right. You gotta laugh at that one. (Get The mini

 HITS - ABRAHAM'S CHILDREN-BNO-0111109 What?! All the HITS by Abraham’s Children on one CD? Yes, the
rumors are true!! I’m told that fan requests were overwhelming.
To their credit the record company, BNOrecordingUSA, decided
to listen and have put together what is sure to become one of
their top-sellers. This long-awaited compilation, which happens
to also be the band’s newest release, brings you all your
favorite songs remastered, including the group’s biggest
hit, Gypsy. Other chart-hitting tunes include Thank You, Goodbye
Farewell and Goddess of Nature, Deni, Rockin In The City, among
others. And if that weren't enough to sweeten your taste for
bubblegum pop, the record company has gone a couple of steps
further. Each order includes a signed postcard of the band as
well as the complete lyrics to all the songs. Hard core fans
will especially appreciate this very special one-time bonus offer
not available anywhere else. The collection of songs featured
on this CD will be sure to take you for a pleasant stroll down
memory lane, a time when transistor radios were the iPods of
the day $22.99 |

 Time - Abraham's Children - BNO 3001 This is the only album that AC would
release. This classic piece of Canadiana musical art is still
as fresh today as it was when it was originally released. It
is the ultimate bubble gum trophy. The album put out three hits
"Goodbye Farewell" "Gypsy" and "Thank
You" all these songs charted well and a couple of them went
to number one in many major markets. BNO has remastered this
with the help of Garwood Wallace in Toronto, Canada. The sound
is awesome. This remains to be a big seller and anyone that ever
had the album should definitely get this classic cd. Big strings
tight harmonies and some incredible playing. Although the band
was considered a commercial success, songs like "Workin
For The Man" "Woman O Woman" are as heavy as heavy
can be, do not underestimate the power of pop. Produced by Allan
Caddy, co-producer Paul Gross, Engineered by George Semkiw, Assistant
Egineer Hayward Parrot, recorded at RCA Studios, Toronto Canada

TIME - BNO
3001 The only album the band would record |
|
 Abraham's Children 30 -
BNO 010905 This double
cd set has it all including the kitchen sink. 30 songs, some
are classic, some are lost treasures that any collector would
give up their sister to own. There are songs in here I have never
heard of and of course hit after hit. I enjoyed the interview
clips and some of the comments made by, I presume Jimi or one
of the band members. Listen to " Would Mother Approve "
a haunting piece that tells the story of a fan that gets infatuated
with a rock group only to learn her mother does not approve.
" Dreams To Sea " a progressive cut that would make
YES spin... all in all this is worth having if you like to explore
the depths of AC. Included is a great little comemorative booklet
filled with photos documenting the band's history. Without a
doubt this is the collection to own. There are a couple of duds
on this but overall it stands the sands of time. Produced by
BNOrecordingUSA (listen) |

 Jimi B
- JIMI B BNO-9069 This album was previously released
on A&M Records. When Jimi started the production of this
album he made sure he had some of the best players on the session.
He recruited Prakash John on bass who is well known for that
famous bass line on Take A Walk On The Wild Side with Lou Reed.
He recorded for many great artists and spent many years as the
bass player for Alice Cooper. Today Prakash has his own band
called The Lincolns. Mike Sloski is perhaps the hottest studio
and live drummers working today. He worked with BB Gabor for
many years. Rob Guseve on keyboards just listen to Wickless Dynamite
and we need say no more. Peter Follett on guitar check out All
American Boy for a classic rock n roll lead. Other guests include
Jody Colero on keys, Kevin Bell guitar, Paul Massey on that great
trumpet line, Cathy Young backing vocals.Seton Raspa iUPDATE

Engineered by George Semkiw and Steve Vaughan, asst. engineer

 Postcards & Musica -Jimi Bertucci - BNO-092201 a collection
of songs picked by Jimi. An interview with Gord James of the
now defunct 1050Chum radio. A couple of pre-production ideas

much like postcards. You attempt to say a lot within a small
space. Some great songs some ok songs and some treats. Jimi introduces
his son Salvatore. A collection of his photographic works can
be seen at photosby. "Radio Tree"
"1965" a recollection of Jimi growing up and seeing

 Shawn O'Shea -
Surfin The Beat - So I
sit down to check my email and decide to slip Serfin The Beat
by ex Abies Babies guitarist Shawn O'Shea in my drive.. His first
solo cd since who knows when. Mr. O'Shea's songs are structured
like Legos, each block fits nicely into the next. His voice on
the tracks could resemble a younger what's his name? Though "Serfin"
displays a certain mature I have been around the block a few
times je ne sais qua, its originality is sometimes lost in the
shuffle of the shuffle. The background girls known as Katy Squad
are tight and slick. Lou Reed would be so proud of them. Drummer
and engineer, Gerry Fielding, displays a requiem of sound and
consistency with each song complimenting the groove. These guys
are no strangers to recording great stuff, whether it's at the
Record Plant or Gerry's Garage. I like it, it's direct, raw and
it rocks. BU......read more about. Shawn |

banished most of the population to undersea cities, a psychotic
blackmailer with a deadly viral weapon threatens the lives of
millions in the present . . . and the future. Sister Snow's reclusive
life is shaken to its foundations when she accidentally stumbles
onto previously impenetrable secrets of her sacred order, forcing
her to question everything she believes in. Her hopes of a second
chance with newly found family and friends spiral into an 'Alice-in-Wonderland'
like nightmare, with ruthless criminals
making the stakes much deadlier than she could've ever dreamed.

 Natopus -
Transition - BNO -1985
This is what some people might call a new age cd. Well it is.
When Jimi first moved to Los Angeles he hooked up with a musician
named Bob Slap. Bob had been working with Valley Of The Sun
a label that specialized in new age music and self help products.
Slap asked Jimi if he would like to help him with a project,...seven
albums later. Jimi was asked by the president of the company
to produce something on his own. Natopus was born. This cd has
sold extremely well in Japan over the years. The music was also
used in the audiobook "Bridge Uncrossed" at the top
of this page. Read by actor/ director Nick Mancuso.Recorded at
Horizon Studios in Malibu, California.n |

THE BLOG
Blogger:
As a long time and I do mean long time fan of Larry King, I am
tired of the negativity towards the McCain ballot...I started
out leaning towards Obama and now I am 100% for McCain...tired
of Obama and all the excuses made for his poor judgement in his
associations...tired of the Palin bashing...compare what they
spent on her wardrobe compared to what Obama has spent on his
campaign...no comparison and now a night with Joy bashing McCain...great!!!
I am embarrassed for her manners on how she has treated other
guests, mainly the McCains...so probably giving up Larry and
the View at the same time....Guess Hannity & Colmes and the
Price is Right will be my new choices due to the negativity!!!:

VDB: What
are you offering Kono..three sentences at time that could be
expressed in two words or less. Listen mamas' boy if you have
any balls bring them out and let the games begin. Little box
I reside in. Don't forget to lock your straw hut Crusoe. READ
MY POSTS. Rich Republican, beautiful and a house that greets
me with style. So go and bend over for the Moore's you so gladly
admire. Make sure he uses Banana Jack lotion it won't hurt as
much. Being a hierodule has many advantages, the pity flows like
ancient water, the village perceives the idiot with a compassionate
sigh and the lack of morals is often replaced with pointed curly
shoes that beg to ring their bells. I would love to supply more
entertainment for you, but I am so sick of ignorant travelers
on lost roads of selfism. Have a nice leu. |

Her Love (08/28/06)
Yesterday she wiped the tears
from my eyes
Holding my face her kiss was gentle and warm
Her smile would bandiage my fragile ego
Knowing I longed for comfort from my grief
The blades were a visiting nightmare
Trying to dilute my shattered beliefs
The doors were locked with heavy irons
Guarded by serpents of err
I was saved with her I was alive
I could feel and sing without chains
Staring her beauty entranced my salvation
She knows not of my love for her
How deep I have fallen to spiral in eternity
And still the poisons challenge with envy
Should the shackles on my heart still my pulse
Lost in dark forests I become blind errant
Searching for her light I strangle unreasoning
She comes to my rescue in meadows of green
Reaching her arms lift my soulness journey
We embrace as one my safety is capacious
Never to doubt her love never to doubt her...(order some poetry signed) |
