PATRICK SIMMONS  'THE LOST INTERVIEWS' with RAY SHASHO Episode 16 Interviewed Tuesday, November 15, 2011  I had the opportunity to interview Doobie Brothers legendary guitarist and songwriter Patrick Simmons a few days before the 2011 Orlando Calling festival. Pat Simmons was introduced to future Doobie Brothers bandmates Tom Johnston and John Hartman by Moby Grape's Skip Spence in 1969 forming the foundation to what would eventually be one of the most esteemed classic rock bands in history.  Pat is usually identified as the Doobie Brother with the longest hair. His heartfelt vocal styles are significant to the band's success. He's an important musician with eclectic musical styles and tastes. Some of his many compositions with the band include the classic “Black Water” (which became their first number one hit) “South City Midnight Lady,” “Dependin' On You,” “Dangerous,” “Echoes Of Love” and “Clear as the Driven Snow.” His on-stage presence is both surreal and overwhelming during his solo of “Jesus Is Just Alright.” Here's my interview with singer, songwriter, guitar virtuoso, and founding member of The Doobie Brothers … Patrick Simmons Doobie Brothers official website http://www.doobiebros.com/ Patrick Simmons musical credits on allmusic.com http://www.allmusic.com/artist/patrick-simmons-p20546/credits     Support us on PayPal!

TOM JOHNSTON THE DOOBIE BROTHERS ‘THE LOST INTERVIEWS' with RAY SHASHO EPISODE 15 INTERVIEWED FEBRUARY 17TH 2013   The Doobie Brothers are one of those bands that we've depended on, year after year, and expect to see performing invariably at outdoor music festivals, pavilions, arenas, casinos and bike week events across the nation. The group has been exhilarating audiences for decades yet appear timeless onstage. One of the principal reasons for the longevity and success of the Doobie Brothers has a lot to do with an unmitigated affection shared between the band and its audience. It's been an amazing love affair that has persevered for over forty-two years. When the Doobie Brothers finally call it quits … rock ‘n' roll will probably call it quits too.  Tom Johnston is the voice, lyricist and guitarist on numerous classic hit recordings by the Doobie Brothers. Inspired by listening to R&B music on the radio, California native Johnston started his first band at 14, eventually broadening his musical horizons by singing with soul and blues groups. After moving to San Jose to finish college, Tom met Skip Spence, original drummer for the Jefferson Airplane. Spence introduced Johnston to drummer John Hartman. Spence was also a founding member of Moby Grape which had a major influence on the Doobie Brothers. Tom Johnston, John Hartman and bassist Greg Murphy formed the power trio “Pud.” When “Pud” unraveled, the evolution of the Doobie Brothers began to take shape. While living in a home dubbed as their “musical headquarters,” guitarist Patrick Simmons and bassist Dave Shogren joined the group. The band quickly generated a huge following in California. In 1971, the Doobie Brothers launched their self- titled debut album, The Doobie Brothers on the Warner Brothers label with legendary producers Ted Templeman and Lenny Waronker. The first track on the album, “Nobody” penned by Tom Johnston, would later resurface in 2010 on their latest release, World Gone Crazy. Their second studio album Toulouse Street (named for a street in the French Quarter of New Orleans) introduced new bassist Tiran Porter and second drummer Michael Hossack (Navy Veteran). The album spawned the Tom Johnston penned classic hits, “Listen to the Music” (#11 Top 100 Billboard Hit -1972), “Rockin' Down the Highway” and “Jesus Is Just Alright,” (#35 Billboard Top 100 Hit -1973) written by Arthur Reynolds (1965) and performed by The Byrds (1969). In 1973, the Doobie Brothers released, The Captain and Me spotlighting some of the bands most memorable classic rock tunes penned by Tom Johnston … “Long Train Runnin'”(#8 Billboard Hot 100 Hit) and perhaps the bands anthem song, “China Grove” (#15 Billboard Hot 100 Hit). The Captain and Me also featured a guest performance by future Doobie Brothers and Steely Dan guitarist Jeff “Skunk” Baxter. The Doobie Brothers fourth studio album, What Were Once Vices Are Now Habits released in 1974 spawned the Tom Johnston penned songs, “Another Park, Another Sunday” (#32 Billboard Hot 100 Hit) and “Eyes of Silver” (#52 Billboard Hot 100 Hit). The album also featured Pat Simmons penned tribute to “The Big Easy,” “Black Water” (#1 Billboard Hot 100 Hit -1975). Stampede released in 1975 was the final album before Michael McDonald took over lead vocalist duties from an ailing Tom Johnston. The album featured the cover version, “Take Me in Your Arms (Rock Me A Little While)” (#11 Billboard Hot 100 Hit -1975) written by the Motown team of Holland-Dozier-Holland. Subsequent albums …Takin' It to the Streets (1976), Livin' on the Fault Line (1977), Minute by Minute (1978) and One Step Closer (1980) featured a successful second incarnation of the band, which primarily consisted of Michael McDonald(vocals, keyboards) Patrick Simmons (guitars/vocals) Jeff “Skunk” Baxter (guitars, steel guitars), Tiran Porter(bass, vocals), John Hartman (drums) and Keith Knudsen (drums). *Tom Johnston played and sang “Turn It Loose” and “Wheels of Fortune” on the album Takin' It to the Streets. John McFee was added to the Doobie Brothers lineup in 1979 replacing Jeff “Skunk” Baxter and was featured on One Step Closer. After a successful run, the band's signature sound and direction became disillusioned. While working on his solo project, Tom Johnston rejoined the band for a Farewell Tour, and then the Doobie Brothers would call it quits as a band for the next five years. The reformation of the Doobie Brothers was contrived when the band's alumni were asked by drummer Keith Knudsen to perform at a concert to benefit veterans' causes. The band discovered that tickets were in great demand and soon embarked on a twelve-city tour.   In 1989, Cycles, the tenth studio recording by the Doobie Brothers, now on Capitol Records, witnessed the return of Tom Johnston and drummer Michael Hossack to the studio as a band. Tom Johnston's distinctive vocals returned, and the band re-established their musical roots. Subsequent releases … Brotherhood (1991), Sibling Rivalry (2000) and World Gone Crazy (2010). World Gone Crazy was the Doobie Brothers highest charting album since 1989 receiving rave reviews and featuring the longtime core lineup of Tom Johnston and Pat Simmons. The Doobie Brothers band functions like a well-oiled machine, touring consistently year after year and enchanting music enthusiasts worldwide. The current lineup of Tom Johnston (vocals/guitar), Pat Simmons (vocals/guitars), John McFee (guitar/strings/vocals), John Cowan (bass), Guy Allison (keyboards/vocals), Marc Russo (saxophones), Ed Toth (drums) and Tony Pia (drums)… represent a musical legacy that defines the quintessence of rock ‘n' roll and a band that we've always depended on throughout the years. The Doobie Brothers have sold more than 40-million albums worldwide. …So why aren't they in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?   Tom Johnston and the Doobie Brothers will be performing live as part of the Bands, Brew & BBQ concert series at Busch Gardens in Tampa on Sunday, February 24th.

I had the great pleasure of speaking with Tom Johnston recently about the band's current and future projects, family, and the future of rock ‘n' roll.

Ascend Wellness CEO John Hartman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's current status and future plans. Ascend Wellness, a prominent multi-state cannabis operator in the United States, has established its presence primarily in the Midwest, Northeast, and Mid-Atlantic regions. The company, now in its fifth year of operation, has expanded its footprint to seven states, including Ohio and Pennsylvania, both of which are transitioning to recreational cannabis use. During the interview, Hartman emphasized Ascend Wellness's strategic approach of focusing on select markets and maximizing the number of dispensaries allowed in each state. This targeted strategy is aimed at optimizing market penetration and ensuring robust growth. Drawing on his extensive background in wholesale, retail, and manufacturing, Hartman highlighted the company's emphasis on effective capital deployment and growth through mergers and acquisitions (M&A). A significant development discussed was the refinancing of a term loan due in August 2025. This financial maneuver provides Ascend Wellness with a five-year runway to concentrate on growth initiatives. The refinancing is expected to enhance the company's balance sheet management, providing greater financial stability and flexibility. Hartman also expressed satisfaction with the performance of Ascend Wellness's product brands, including Ozone and Simply Herb, which have achieved strong market positions in Illinois, New Jersey, and Massachusetts, ranking third in market share. The company plans to continue expanding its network of dispensaries and supporting partner stores, thereby fully leveraging its cultivation and production capacities. Ascend Wellness has consistently generated positive free cash flow for multiple quarters, a trend the company aims to maintain while expanding its market presence. The company's strategic focus on market-specific growth, efficient capital deployment, and robust brand performance positions it well for continued success in the evolving cannabis industry. #proactiveinvestors #ascendwellnessinc #cse #aawh #otcqx #aawh #CannabisIndustry, #JohnHartman, #MultiStateOperator, #CannabisGrowth, #MergersAndAcquisitions, #TermLoanRefinancing, #OzoneBrand, #SimplyHerb, #MedicalCannabis, #RecreationalCannabis, #CannabisDispensaries, #CannabisCultivation, #PositiveCashFlow, #CannabisMarkets, #CannabisProducts, #CannabisBusiness, #USCannabis, #CannabisCEO, #CannabisExpansion#invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Born in Aberdeen, Washington, he has been the only consistent member of the band throughout their tenure. In 1970, a California-based power trio consisting of Tom Johnston, Skip Spence, and John Hartman, teamed up with Simmons to form a group together. They would call themselves “The Doobie Brothers”, after their friend Keith "Dyno" Rosen, who either lived with or next to the band told them Why don't you call yourself the Doobie Brothers because you're always smoking pot? Simmons wrote and sang many songs for the Doobie Brothers, including "South City Midnight Lady", "Dependin' On You", "Echoes of Love", "Wheels of Fortune" and "Black Water", the group's first #1 record. Patrick sang lead on many Doobie Brothers songs, such as Listen to the Music. The group's 1978 studio album, Minute by Minute, which reached number one for five weeks, and won the band a Grammy for Best Pop Vocal Performance by a Duo or Group, while the single "What A Fool Believes" from the album won three Grammys itself. The Doobie Brothers were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 200 and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on November 7, 2020.[2][3] The group has sold more than 40 million albums worldwide.

Today I welcome Alex McLaughlin to the podcast, Canadian acrylic and watercolour artist and mum of 2 boys from Midland Ontario.Raised in Honey Harbour on Georgian Bay, Alex was fortunate enough to have a childhood full of love and opportunity. Her summers can be best characterized by exploration, swimming, boating, and working for the family business. Having the opportunity to be on the water nearly every day since she was born has never been something she has never taken for granted.After working as a paramedic on the streets of Toronto for many years, Alex felt the pull to return to her childhood home, and now lives there with her husband and 2 boys. She now focuses solely on her art, working out of her home studio which allows her to to maximize precious painting time and be the present mother she has always wanted to be.Put simply, Alex feels like she is now doing what she was always meant to be doing.Ever since Alex was little, her grandmother encouraged her to practice and appreciate the arts as a way to document her life. Alex is a predominately self taught artist, but after taking a watercolour course by local Canadian artist John Hartman everything seemed to make sense for her and allowed her to explore her local area with a new set of eyes.Recently, Alex created her first-ever painting series that is very close to her heart: Georgian Bay Reflections. Using vibrant colour and layered brush strokes, Alex feels her way through each piece until its depth and composition are reminiscent of this special place that was, is and always will be home.Through the power of her expressionism artform, Alex's hope for us is to be reminded of how the simple and natural things in life are the most beautiful. In a world that seems to be evolving faster than ever before, Most of all her wish is to have us stop and experience, even just for a moment, the beauty of life translated through art.**This episode contains discussion around anxiety, OCD and depression**Visit Alex's website The Massasauga Rattler Snake https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WGW3MSt8nJIBeam Paints https://www.beampaints.com/ is the paint company Alex mentioned who she found making water colour paints locally.Podcast - instagram / website Music used with permission from Alemjo, Australian new age and ambient music trio.

In 1987, HBO had a comedy special called Women of the Night. It featured four women who were known regionally and at certain comedy clubs, but had yet to really reach a national audience. They were Ellen DeGeneres, Paula Poundstone, Rita Rudner, and today's guest Judy Tenuta. In fact, for the next four years each one of these women would be named Best Female Stand-up Comic at the American Comedy Awards (with Tenuta being the first in 1988). So throughout the 1980s and 90s Judy was a part of a big boom for women in comedy. She branded herself as The Love Goddess and starred in national commercials, published her first book, and received Grammy nominations for her comedy albums. And if you've seen the movie Waiting for Guffman, one of my all-time favorite films, you'll notice a certain Judy Tenuta T-shirt worn by Corky St. Clair. However, her introduction to the stage was actually as an actress, and in college she majored in theater. In this interview we'll talk about her transition from plays and musicals to stand-up comedy as well as her long-standing connection with the LGBTQ community. But first she shares with us the cancer diagnosis she received during the height of the Covid pandemic. As the Aphrodite of the Accordion, though, she hasn't let that stop her, and this past New Year's Eve she released a music video called “Kicking Cancer's Ass.” It's in perfect keeping with her campy and offbeat persona that has made Judy Tenuta one of the most unique comedians and performers of her generation.

Ian Brown, bestselling author and a feature writer for The Globe and Mail, sits down with David Macfarlane, author of the classic memoir The Danger Tree to discuss his latest, Likeness: Fathers, sons, a portrait, an occasionally hilarious, sometimes heart-breaking meditation on love, memory, and the fathomless depths of grief. Likeness is a multi-generational story told through the vehicle of a painting, a portrait of Macfarlane by the well-known Canadian artist, John Hartman. The painting has ended up unexpectedly, temporarily, and enormously in Macfarlane's living room. He looks at it—a lot. It's hard to avoid. To Macfarlane's surprise, the painting becomes a portal—not only into his own past, but into his father's, too. Through these two histories is woven the present—one dominated by illness. Macfarlane's son undergoes treatment for leukemia during the time the painting hangs in the family living room. Blake is a young man rich in creative possibility. There is music to be composed. There are films to be made. But Blake's future is as circumscribed by fate as his father's was wide open. A tragic difference, eloquently noted. Books are available from our friends at Perfect Books.

For a look into Hartman's passion, WBOI's Julia Meek recently sat down with him to talk about how and why his tag line, "making videos, making new friends" works.

Convicted murderer William Holmes wrote a letter, confessing to his involvement in the killing of John Hartman. But, how reliable are people on the inside? Could he have other reasons for inserting himself into this case? And, was William Holmes involved in another Fairbanks murder, of a woman named Mahogany Davis? It looks entirely possible. Will he talk about it? Matt interviews Bill from prison, and things get a little dicey. 

Out of nowhere – well, not exactly out of nowhere – a guy already in prison for other murders in California confesses to being involved in the John Hartman beating – but does he have ulterior motives? Also, another crew of murderers affiliated with Chris Stone seem to skate under the radar. Apparently Fairbanks was teeming with murderers this night. 

An eyewitness testifies that he saw the Fairbanks Four assault another person minutes before John Hartman was beaten to death, his credibility comes into question, as police conduct a questionable investigation. Whose back is being scratched here exactly? 

The other half of the Fairbanks Four deny involvement in stomping John Hartman to death, even though Kevin, the whiteboy, lied about his whereabouts that night. John Hartman's friend Chris Stone's story doesn't make a lot of sense. Hartman's older brother wants answers, but maybe he has a guilty conscience. 

There is a murder on the street downtown in Fairbanks, Alaska. The victim, John Hartman, was stomped to death, and George has a broken foot, but, how did he break it? He doesn't remember. Man, rough night.

Tom Johnston was born August 15, 1948, in Visalia, CA. Johnston fell in love with R&B music at a young age and learned to play the songs of Little Richard, Bo Diddley, and James Brown when he received his first guitar at the age of 12. He played in soul, blues, and even a Mexican wedding band in his teens and continued playing in a blues group while attending college in San Jose. It was there he met the legendary lead singer of Moby Grape, Skip Spence, who was drumming for the Jefferson Airplane at the time. Spence introduced Johnston to John Hartman and the two would play together in numerous bands, finally finding success when they formed the Doobie Brothers. Johnston wrote/sang lead vocals Listen to the Music Rockin' Down the Highway and China Grove among other hits for the band.

Born out of Northern California's chaotic, late-1960s musical stew, The Doobie Brothers' rugged, real and authentic approach to rock and roll made them biker bar stalwarts. But their self-titled debut album in '71 went beyond just leather and motorcycles, revealing even more musical layers; sweet three-part harmonies and rootsy, introspective, acoustic flavors. The Doobie Brothers' legacy has been built upon not just hit records, but also an unrivaled commitment to musical integrity and a steadfast allegiance to their enthusiastic fan base. The bands ability to evolve in a constantly changing industry and connections to generations of listening audiences is a testament to their craft. It all began in 1969, when a drummer named John Hartman arrived in Northern California. He was there to meet Skip Spence from the band Moby Grape and become part of a supposed band reunion that never quite got off the ground. But it wasn't all for naught. Spence (who had also played in the Jefferson Airplane) introduced Hartman to his friend Tom Johnston, a local singer/songwriter/guitarist -and they connected. Hartman and Johnston began playing local Bay Area bars. They soon met singer/guitarist Pat Simmons, whose finger-style playing richly complimented Johnston's R&B strumming-style, and the foundation for The Doobie Brothers was set. While their debut album in 1971 did not chart, just a year a later, their second record, Toulouse Street, became a breakout sensation. Producer Ted Templeman helped the band craft a sound that was organic, yet radio friendly, and brought in Little Feat keyboardist Bill Payne to add unique musical textures.

In the early hours of October 11th, 1997, in Fairbanks Alaska, the body of 17 year old John Hartman lay in the street beaten and was dead the next day. Less than 24 hours later 4 Native Alaskan teens were in custody and 2 coerced confessions were on the record. Through quick judgements, bias, and denial of alibis, join as we investigate how the detectives botched this case and created a great social injustice for Native Alaskan community. This is the wrongful conviction of the Fairbanks Four.

Hosts Josef Zimmerman and Ian Anderson chat up John Hartman.

About 25 years ago, while sharing an early morning cup of coffee with my dear friend and practice partner, family physician John Hartman, MD, he asked, “Walt, how come we don’t bring our faith to work with us more often?” It was a question the Lord used to convict me of the fact that although my personal relationship with God was the primary and most important relationship in my life, more often than not I tended to leave Him at the door when entering the hospital or medical office. The question was the catalyst for this talk: Spiritual Interventions in Patient Care. Research findings, a desire to provide high-quality care, and simple common sense, all underscore the need to integrate spirituality into patient care. It is highly ethical for healthcare professionals and healthcare systems to assess their patients’ spiritual health and needs and to provide indicated and desired spiritual interventions. Clinicians and health care systems should not deprive their patients of the spiritual support and comfort on which their hope, health, wellbeing, and longevity may hinge. Before you get started, I must share this caution from Stephen Post, PhD: “Professional problems can occur when well-meaning healthcare professionals ‘faith-push’ a patient opposed to discussing religion.” However, on the other side of the coin, “rather than ignoring faith completely with all patients, most of whom want to discuss it, we can explore which of our patients are interested and who are not.” Simply put, a spiritual assessment can help us do this with each patient we see. We can potentially gain the following from a spiritual assessment: The patient’s religious background, The role that religious or spiritual beliefs or practices play in coping with illness (or causing distress), Beliefs that may influence or conflict with decisions about medical care,  The patient’s level of participation in a spiritual community and whether the community is supportive, and ‹ Any spiritual needs that might be present. Several fairly-easy-to-use mnemonics have been designed to help health professionals, such as the “GOD” spiritual assessment I developed for CMDA’s Saline Solution: G = God: − May I ask your faith background? Do you have a spiritual or faith preference? Is God, spirituality, religion or spiritual faith important to you now, or has it been in the past? O = Others: − Do you now meet with others in religious or spiritual community, or have you in the past? If so, how often? How do you integrate with your faith community? D = Do: − What can I do to assist you in incorporating your spiritual or religious faith into your medical care? Or, is there anything I can do to encourage your faith? May I pray with or for you? However, this and other spiritual assessment tools fail to inquire about a critical item involving spiritual health: any religious struggles the patient may be having. A robust literature shows religious struggles can predict mortality, as there is an inverse association between faith and morbidity and mortality of various types. Sir William Osler, one of the founding professors of Johns Hopkins Hospital and frequently described as the “Father of Modern Medicine,” wrote, “Nothing in life is more wonderful than faith…the one great moving force which we can neither weigh in the balance nor test in the crucibIe - mysterious, indefinable, known only by its effects, faith pours out an unfailing stream of energy while abating neither jot nor tittle of its potence.” You can experience that driving force of faith when you apply these principles of spiritual assessment in your practice of healthcare, thereby allowing you to minister to your patients in ways you never imagined possible, while also increasing personal and professional satisfaction. One doctor recently shared with me, “Ministering in my practice has allowed God to bear fruit in and through me in new and wonderful ways. I can’t wait to see what He’s going to do in and through me each day. My practice and I have been transformed.”

I remember when my dad turned 40. I thought he was so old. You know, there’s that “over the hill” thing that happens at 40 and all. Now, I’m 45, and 40 doesn’t seem old anymore. In fact, 60 doesn’t seem old anymore. On the other hand, doing something for 45 years does seem like a long time…but in more of a notable achievement sort of way. Something to be admired and strived for. John Hartman has been photographing for as long as I’ve been alive. He’s an absolute master at his craft and he has some fantastic insights for newcomers and for veterans alike. One of my favorite parts of this conversation is when he addresses retirement and says “people retire to do what I do”. How awesome is that? If you’re on the front end of this business, consider those words and that concept. You’ll be 45, or 60 or beyond before you know it. And if you’re still blazing trails the way John has been during his career, you’ll have something special to look back on and to keep you moving forward. Just like him.

In this episode Jeff and Will are graced with the presence of Mr. Worldwide himself Johnny 5’s. John discusses his unintentional rise to stardom, his love for Dr. Phil, and explains why if it wasn’t for him, Larkin would be bagging groceries at Walmart. Just kidding Larkin… I figured by now you stopped reading!

Hoy cerramos esta miniserie de tres capítulos en los que hemos revisado ese pequeño periodo comprendido entre los años 70 y 73 del siglo pasado que tan buenos músicos dio a la industria del disco. Uno de los más importantes, y con el que abrimos el programa de hoy es Isaac Hayes. Isaac Hayes fue un compositor, cantante, actor y productor estadounidense. Fue uno de los creadores del sello sureño de música soul Stax Records, donde trabajó como compositor, músico de sesión y productor de discos, haciendo equipo con su compañero David Porter durante la mitad de los años 1960. Su canción "Soul Man" escrita por Hayes y Porter y primero interpretada por Sam & Dave, ha sido reconocida como una de las canciones más influyentes en los pasados 50 años por el Salon de la Fama de los Grammy. Esta es la famosa versión que de su canción hicieron Sam and Dave, para mi gusto, mejor que el original. Linda Ronstadt, nacida en Tucson, Arizona, ha ganado once premios Grammy, tres American Music Award, un Emmy y ha sido candidata al Tony y al Globo de Oro, y sus álbumes han recibido múltiples certificaciones de oro, platino y multiplatino en el mundo. Ronstadt ha colaborado con artistas de diversos géneros y tendencias musicales como: Bette Midler, Frank Zappa, Rosemary Clooney, Flaco Jiménez, Philip Glass, Dolly Parton, Neil Young o Johnny Cash, entre otros. Su trabajo con el productor Peter Asher desde 1974 hasta la década de 1980 resultó ser de lo más fructífera. Uno de esos éxitos fue este precioso Blue Bayou, de Roy Orbison. Su año de despegue fue 1974 pero, a lo largo de su larga carrera de cantante, Linda Ronstadt ha convivido con infinidad de géneros y estilos, incluyendo las Big Band, rancheras mexicanas, un álbum de música latina, un álbum de Música country de los viejos tiempos y un álbum de clásicos de rock. La canción que hemos escuchado, Blue Bayou, pertenece a uno de los álbumes de más éxito de la carrera de Ronstadt, Simple Dreams. Pasó cinco semanas consecutivas en la lista de álbumes de Billboard a finales de 1977, desplazando a Elvis Presley del número 1 El álbum tuvo tanto éxito que Ronstadt se convirtió en la primera artista femenina, y el primer artista en general, desde The Beatles, en tener dos sencillos entre los cinco primeros al mismo tiempo: el ya citado " Blue Bayou " y este otro " It's So Easy”. El 18 de julio de 2004 en una actuación en el "Aladdin Casino", Las Vegas, a nuestra amiga Linda no se le ocurrió otra cosa que alabar al director de cine Michael Moore y a su película documental "Fahrenheit 9/11", ya sabéis, la que trata sobre las causas y consecuencias de los atentados del 11 de septiembre de 2001 en Estados Unidos, y en la que se hace referencia a la posterior invasión de Irak liderada por ese país y Gran Bretaña y con la inestimable aquiescencia de nuestro inefable ex presidente Aznar. Además, intenta determinar el alcance real de los supuestos vínculos entre las familias del presidente de los Estados Unidos en el momento de los atentados, George W. Bush, y los Bin Laden, acaudalada familia de Osama bin Laden. Bien, pues la lio parda Algunos miembros de la audiencia se marcharon, arrancaron carteles, lanzaron bebidas y pidieron que Linda fuese retirada del escenario. Posteriormente se informó de que el gerente de Aladdin, Bill Timmins, la escoltó afuera de las instalaciones, sin darle ni siquiera la oportunidad de recoger sus pertenencias, y aseguró que mientras él dirigiese el casino nunca, jamás, volvería a ser bienvenida. Y aunque aquí siempre será bienvenida, debemos ya despedirnos de Linda Ronstadt con una estupenda versión de un clásico, Am I Blue, acompañada por la Big Band de Nelson Riddle. John Denver, era hijo de un oficial de las fuerzas aéreas e instructor de vuelo. Este fue el motivo por el que Denver fue toda su vida un apasionado del vuelo, algo que como veremos, le costó la vida. Nacido el 31 de diciembre de 1943 en RosweIl (Nuevo México), el cantautor fue en su momento uno de los más populares del mundo. Su casa de discos, Sony, dice que se encuentra entre los cinco más vendedores de la historia de la música. Durante su carrera obtuvo 12 discos de oro y cuatro de platino. Tras estudiar guitarra y ser un apasionado seguidor de Elvis Presley, en 1964 abandonó sus estudios de Arquitectura, en contra de los criterios familiares, y se trasladó a Los Ángeles. En lo que constituye toda una triste ironía, su capacidad como letrista se hizo notoria al componer el éxito de Peter, Paul and Mary titulado Me voy en un avión, que consiguió situarse en los primeros lugares de las listas de ventas. En 1971 Denver lanzó su superéxito Take me home, country roads, un tema versionado hasta la infinidad y que quedó profundamente arraigado en el cancionero popular de Estados Unidos. Asociado con la música foIk y country más que con el pop, Denver cantó junto a infinidad de famosos, incluido Frank Sinatra y durante los años setenta fue un gigante de la música, pero en cierta medida rehuyó la fama yéndose a vivir a las Montañas Rocosas y componiendo canciones como Thank God I'm a country man (Gracias a Dios que soy un chico de campo). Sin dejar de grabar discos pero con mucho menos éxito, Denver se subió a los trenes del pacifismo y la protesta antinuclear en los años ochenta, y al del ecologismo en los noventa. Su preocupación por el medio ambiente le llevó a colaborar con asociaciones como los Amigos de la Tierra y la Sociedad Jacques Cousteau. Fue amigo del famoso oceanógrafo e incluso escribió como homenaje a su compromiso ecológico el tema Calypso. También, se afirma que en 1988 solicitó a las autoridades soviéticas que le dejaran viajar a bordo de la estación espacial Mir. Recientemente, el cantante había tenido problemas con el alcohol y, al menos en dos ocasiones, fue detenido por conducir borracho. Lo de la estación Mir no sabemos si lo preguntó antes o después de la detención. Denver tuvo dos pasiones en su vida: la música y volar. Como piloto experimentado, Denver tenía su propio planeador y voló en aviones acrobáticos y, en alguna ocasión, en un F-15. Esta pasión por el aire le costó a Denver la vida cuando cayó al mar en su recientemente adquirido Rutan Long-EZ el 12 de octubre de 1997. El percance sucedió durante un vuelo solitario, cuando se estrelló en las inmediaciones de una playa del Océano Pacífico, cerca de Pacific Grove, California. Su vuelo lo había iniciado a las 17:12, y la tragedia se estima que ocurrió a las 17:28, alrededor de 15 a 16 minutos después de su despegue. Y cambiando radicalmente de registro, nos vamos a conocer a otro personaje de la época: hablamos de Johnny Winter. John Dawson «Johnny» Winter nació albino, y al igual que su hermano menor Edgar, Johnny mostró desde siempre una fuerte atracción por la música. Comenzó a tocar la guitarra a la edad de 11 años y ya en esa época estaba enganchado a un programa de radio que se dedicaba en exclusiva al mundo del blues, y que presentaba un DJ aficionado local. A los 14 años, ya empapado de blues de su emisora favorita y con una larga colección de discos que había ido reuniendo, forma Johnny and the Jammers, su primera banda, junto a su hermano Edgar. Pasó un tiempo grabando temas para discográficas regionales y tocando en bares y clubs, buscando su oportunidad. Incluso en una ocasión, llegó a tocar, en 1962, ante B.B. King, con la guitarra de este, en una visita a un famoso local de Beaumont. Su descubrimiento a nivel nacional llegó a través de un artículo en la revista Rolling Stone, en 1968, lo que le valió un contrato con el propietario de un club neoyorquino y una grabación con Columbia. Su disco de debut oficial, Johnny Winter, fue publicado en 1969, año en el que también tocó en distintas presentaciones y festivales, incluyendo el de Woodstock. Entre los años 1969 y 1970, Winter sufrió una fuerte adicción a la heroína, de la que se recuperó no sin esfuerzo Winter era un monstruo del escenario, hizo más giras que ninguno de sus coetáneos a pesar de que en los últimos años se había visto afectado por problemas de salud y se vio obligado a realizar sus actuaciones sentado, producto de un problema de Síndrome Túnel Carpiano y de problemas en la cadera. Bueno pues, aun en estas condiciones, siguió adelante con su carrera. En mayo de 2009 lanzó un nuevo recopilatorio denominado The Johnny Winter Anthology distribuido por Sony Music Entertainment. Durante su gira estival en Europa, el 16 de julio de 2014, murió de madrugada en un hotel de Zúrich. Rock and Roll El guitarrista Tom Johnston y el batería John Hartman formaran el núcleo de lo que sería otro de los grandes grupos del momento: The Doobie Brothers. Comenzaron a actuar en el norte de California y, después de algunos conciertos, consiguieron un contrato con la Warner Brothers. El álbum de su estreno salió en 1971 y era una mezcla de folk y country. El primer single fue "Nobody". El segundo álbum, Toulouse Street, en 1972, trajo su primer gran éxito "Listen To The Music". Este disco tenía un poco de R&B, bluegrass y hard rock. En la gira de 1975, Johnston dejó la banda por problemas de salud. El nuevo teclista, Michael McDonald, cambió la cara de los Doobie Brothers dándole un nuevo estilo que era una mezcla de soul, jazz y rock. En el primer álbum con Michael, de 1976, la canción The Doctor, compuesta por él, alcanzó un gran éxito. Johnston salió de la banda después de la grabación del disco. Después de casi una década en la carretera, y con siete álbumes lanzados, los Doobie Brothers alcanzaron su mayor éxito con el disco Minute by Minute, de 1978, que estuvo cinco semanas en el top de la Billboard. La canción "What A Fool Believes", compuesta por Michael Mcdonald y Kenny Loggins, ganó el Grammy de mejor música y grabación del año. En 1982, Doobie Brothers se disuelve, aunque antes lanzaron el disco en directo Farewell Tour, con la participación especial de Johnston. Y otro grupo más: Steely Dan. Banda estadounidense de rock formado en Nueva York en 1972 y cuya música incorpora elementos de jazz, rock, funk, rhythm and blues (R&B) y pop. Sus fundadores fueron Donald Fagen y Walter Becker, ambos geniales instrumentistas y compositores. La cima de su popularidad tuvo lugar en los años 70/75. Su música evolucionó para incorporar complejas estructuras de jazz avaladas por una extraordinaria habilidad instrumental. La banda fue famosa por utilizar músicos de sesión en sus grabaciones, como, por ejemplo, Mark Knopfler, y otros. La historia del grupo tiene tres etapas: en la primera, desde 1972 hasta 1974, el grupo era una banda convencional de rock que salía de gira y grababa; en la segunda, (1975-años 80) el grupo se convirtió en un grupo puramente de estudio que continuó usando el nombre de Steely Dan, aunque se centraba básicamente en el equipo formado por Becker y Fagen, empleando a músicos de sesión en sus grabaciones. La tercera etapa del grupo es la vuelta por sorpresa de Becker y Fagen a la grabación y actuación en directo durante los años 90, con la banda reconstituida considerada como uno de los grandes grupos de jazz-rock que actúa todavía en directo de forma regular. Aunque, lamentablemente, ya sin Becker, que murió en septiembre de 2017. Steely Dan y su Babylon Sisters. Los Beatles habían dicho adiós el 10 de mayo de 1970, cuando Paul McCartney anunció en final de la banda. Buen pues, de forma inmediata, el más beneficiado de esta deseada Independencia fue George Harrison. George había almacenado una buena cantidad de canciones porque el resto de Beatles no le dejaban incluir más que una canción en cada uno de sus discos. Así que, con todo hecho, editó inmediatamente un triple LP que llegó al número 1, al igual que el single My Sweet Lord, que tantos quebraderos de cabeza había de darle. El concierto de Bangla Desh, un año después, consolidó aún más su nuevo status de estrella. Aprovechando ese momento, creo una productora de cine, Hand Made Films. Gracias a ella, los Monty PLython puedieron llevar a cabo La Vida de Brian. Hemos oído, de este disco triple, la canción What Is Life; oiremos ahora, del mismo disco, Wah-Wah Ringo también tuvo sus años de gloria, bueno, más o menos. Con la ayuda de George primero pero también de John y Paul después. En 1974 publicó Goodnight Vienna, un álbum en el que contó con la colaboración de músicos como Lennon, Elton John, Jim Keltner, Harry Nilsson, Vini Poncia y Billy Preston. A pesar de seguir la fórmula trillada de incluir composiciones de músicos famosos, no obtuvo el éxito comercial esperado. El álbum incluye una versión del tema de The Platters «Only You (And You Alone)», que alcanzó el puesto seis en los Estados Unidos. Cuan Paul rompió los Beatles, casi inmediatamente, creó un nuevo grupo, Wings, con Linda McCartney y Denny Laine a la guitarra. Su mejor disco fue Band on the run. Paul McCartney se ha convertido en el artista más laureado de la historia, contando sus éxitos con los Beatles, en solitario y con Wings. También promovió un concierto benéfico a finales de los setenta, en pro de los damnificados del genocidio de Kampuchea. Pese a todo, jamás podrá luchar ya contra la leyenda de John, porque, amigos, los muertos siempre se convierten en héroes antes que los vivos. John Lennon ya había grabado en solitario antes de la separación del grupo. Formó Plastic Ono Band, con Yoko Ono, y a raíz de Imagine en 1971, consagrada como himno en las décadas siguientes, mantuvo una carrera con altibajos, metido de lleno en cuestiones políticas que casi le costaron ser expulsado de los Estados Unidos. De 1975 a 1980 se apartó de la música y cuando regresó, un demente le pegó un tiro a las puertas de su casa. Bueno amigos, hemos terminado el programa de hoy y, casi, casi, la temporada. Para celebrar tan glorioso momento, el próximo día, con muy pocas palabras y con mucha música, daremos un repaso a todo lo emitido en estos meses, una selecta selección, guiada exclusivamente por el buen gusto del equipo de Nada más que música que, como sabéis, nos caracteriza. En serio, hemos querido rescatar o descubrir canciones que, pudiendo estar presentes en nuestra memoria, o escondidas en alguno de los muchos recodos de nuestro cerebro, nos hicieron felices en su momento y que esperamos os hagan felices a vosotros ahora. No os lo perdáis. Hasta entonces… Buenas Vibraciones.

Esta es la famosa versión que de su canción hicieron Sam and Dave, para mi gusto, mejor que el original. Linda Ronstadt, nacida en Tucson, Arizona, ha ganado once premios Grammy, tres American Music Award, un Emmy y ha sido candidata al Tony y al Globo de Oro, y sus álbumes han recibido múltiples certificaciones de oro, platino y multiplatino en el mundo. Ronstadt ha colaborado con artistas de diversos géneros y tendencias musicales como: Bette Midler, Frank Zappa, Rosemary Clooney, Flaco Jiménez, Philip Glass, Dolly Parton, Neil Young o Johnny Cash, entre otros.

La canción que hemos escuchado, Blue Bayou, pertenece a uno de los álbumes de más éxito de la carrera de Ronstadt, Simple Dreams. Pasó cinco semanas consecutivas en la lista de álbumes de Billboard a finales de 1977, desplazando a Elvis Presley del número 1 El álbum tuvo tanto éxito que Ronstadt se convirtió en la primera artista femenina, y el primer artista en general, desde The Beatles, en tener dos sencillos entre los cinco primeros al mismo tiempo: el ya citado " Blue Bayou " y este otro " It's So Easy”. El 18 de julio de 2004 en una actuación en el "Aladdin Casino", Las Vegas, a nuestra amiga Linda no se le ocurrió otra cosa que alabar al director de cine Michael Moore y a su película documental "Fahrenheit 9/11", ya sabéis, la que trata sobre las causas y consecuencias de los atentados del 11 de septiembre de 2001 en Estados Unidos, y en la que se hace referencia a la posterior invasión de Irak liderada por ese país y Gran Bretaña y con la inestimable aquiescencia de nuestro inefable ex presidente Aznar.

Posteriormente se informó de que el gerente de Aladdin, Bill Timmins, la escoltó afuera de las instalaciones, sin darle ni siquiera la oportunidad de recoger sus pertenencias, y aseguró que mientras él dirigiese el casino nunca, jamás, volvería a ser bienvenida. Y aunque aquí siempre será bienvenida, debemos ya despedirnos de Linda Ronstadt con una estupenda versión de un clásico, Am I Blue, acompañada por la Big Band de Nelson Riddle. John Denver, era hijo de un oficial de las fuerzas aéreas e instructor de vuelo.

En el primer álbum con Michael, de 1976, la canción The Doctor, compuesta por él, alcanzó un gran éxito. Johnston salió de la banda después de la grabación del disco. Después de casi una década en la carretera, y con siete álbumes lanzados, los Doobie Brothers alcanzaron su mayor éxito con el disco Minute by Minute, de 1978, que estuvo cinco semanas en el top de la Billboard. La canción "What A Fool Believes", compuesta por Michael Mcdonald y Kenny Loggins, ganó el Grammy de mejor música y grabación del año. En 1982, Doobie Brothers se disuelve, aunque antes lanzaron el disco en directo Farewell Tour, con la participación especial de Johnston. Y otro grupo más: Steely Dan. Banda estadounidense de rock formado en Nueva York en 1972 y cuya música incorpora elementos de jazz, rock, funk, rhythm and blues (R&B) y pop.

La historia del grupo tiene tres etapas: en la primera, desde 1972 hasta 1974, el grupo era una banda convencional de rock que salía de gira y grababa; en la segunda, (1975-años 80) el grupo se convirtió en un grupo puramente de estudio que continuó usando el nombre de Steely Dan, aunque se centraba básicamente en el equipo formado por Becker y Fagen, empleando a músicos de sesión en sus grabaciones. La tercera etapa del grupo es la vuelta por sorpresa de Becker y Fagen a la grabación y actuación en directo durante los años 90, con la banda reconstituida considerada como uno de los grandes grupos de jazz-rock que actúa todavía en directo de forma regular. Aunque, lamentablemente, ya sin Becker, que murió en septiembre de 2017. Steely Dan y su Babylon Sisters. Los Beatles habían dicho adiós el 10 de mayo de 1970, cuando Paul McCartney anunció en final de la banda. Buen pues, de forma inmediata, el más beneficiado de esta deseada Independencia fue George Harrison. George había almacenado una buena cantidad de canciones porque el resto de Beatles no le dejaban incluir más que una canción en cada uno de sus discos. Así que, con todo hecho, editó inmediatamente un triple LP que llegó al número 1, al igual que el single My Sweet Lord, que tantos quebraderos de cabeza había de darle. El concierto de Bangla Desh, un año después, consolidó aún más su nuevo status de estrella. Aprovechando ese momento, creo una productora de cine, Hand Made Films. Gracias a ella, los Monty PLython puedieron llevar a cabo La Vida de Brian. Hemos oído, de este disco triple, la canción What Is Life; oiremos ahora, del mismo disco, Wah-Wah Ringo también tuvo sus años de gloria, bueno, más o menos. Con la ayuda de George primero pero también de John y Paul después. En 1974 publicó Goodnight Vienna, un álbum en el que contó con la colaboración de músicos como Lennon, Elton John, Jim Keltner, Harry Nilsson, Vini Poncia y Billy Preston. A pesar de seguir la fórmula trillada de incluir composiciones de músicos famosos, no obtuvo el éxito comercial esperado. El álbum incluye una versión del tema de The Platters «Only You (And You Alone)», que alcanzó el puesto seis en los Estados Unidos. Cuan Paul rompió los Beatles, casi inmediatamente, creó un nuevo grupo, Wings, con Linda McCartney y Denny Laine a la guitarra. Su mejor disco fue Band on the run. Paul McCartney se ha convertido en el artista más laureado de la historia, contando sus éxitos con los Beatles, en solitario y con Wings. También promovió un concierto benéfico a finales de los setenta, en pro de los damnificados del genocidio de Kampuchea. Pese a todo, jamás podrá luchar ya contra la leyenda de John, porque, amigos, los muertos siempre se convierten en héroes antes que los vivos. John Lennon ya había grabado en solitario antes de la separación del grupo. Formó Plastic Ono Band, con Yoko Ono, y a raíz de Imagine en 1971, consagrada como himno en las décadas siguientes, mantuvo una carrera con altibajos, metido de lleno en cuestiones políticas que casi le costaron ser expulsado de los Estados Unidos. De 1975 a 1980 se apartó de la música y cuando regresó, un demente le pegó un tiro a las puertas de su casa. Bueno amigos, hemos terminado el programa de hoy y, casi, casi, la temporada. Para celebrar tan glorioso momento, el próximo día, con muy pocas palabras y con mucha música, daremos un repaso a todo lo emitido en estos meses, una selecta selección, guiada exclusivamente por el buen gusto del equipo de Nada más que música que, como sabéis, nos caracteriza. En serio, hemos querido rescatar o descubrir canciones que, pudiendo estar presentes en nuestra memoria, o escondidas en alguno de los muchos recodos de nuestro cerebro, nos hicieron felices en su momento y que esperamos os hagan felices a vosotros ahora. No os lo perdáis. Hasta entonces… Buenas Vibraciones.

Rev. Dr. John Hartman "Re-Member"

Tom Johnston was born August 15, 1948, in Visalia, CA. Johnston fell in love with R&B music at a young age and learned to play the songs of Little Richard, Bo Diddley, and James Brown when he received his first guitar at the age of 12. He played in soul, blues, and even a Mexican wedding band in his teens and continued playing in a blues group while attending college in San Jose. It was there he met the legendary lead singer of Moby Grape, Skip Spence, who was drumming for the Jefferson Airplane at the time. Spence introduced Johnston to John Hartman and the two would play together in numerous bands, finally finding success when they formed the Doobie Brothers. Johnston wrote/sang lead vocals Listen to the Music Rockin' Down the Highway and China Grove among other hits for the band.

Writer, actor and musical improv vet John Hartman (Baby Wants Candy, The Good Place) joins Jess & Zach this week for a wild, underwater, crab-legged techno musical complete with sledding, sea snakes and slow dances. With songs like "Bubble Bauble Ball", "Share Our Legs" and "What Is Six?!", you won't be crabby about any of these tunes. This episode is brought to you by Leesa (www.leesa.com/OFFBOOK).See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

John Hartman joins me for an enlightening, funny and respectful conversation about homelessness. But we start off by chatting about cults for a few. It's a good one!

Rev. Dr. John Hartman, Matthew 6:1-8, "Finding the Saints"

The Fairbanks Four. October, 1997. Fairbanks, Alaska. A 15 year old named John Hartman was found badly beaten on a curb in downtown Fairbanks, Alaska. At the hospital he was placed on life support as police worked the case and tracked down witnesses and suspects. By the next day John had died and authorities felt certain that a picture of what had happened was quickly coming into focus. But after four convictions and almost two decades the case had changed and the four who had landed in prison for murder were being released after new evidence made its way before the courts. Had the Fairbanks Four been wrongfully convicted? Or could they have committed the murder and then convinced many otherwise?

Rev. Dr. John Hartman, Galatians 4:4-7, "Windows into the Future"

Are you a Photographer looking for practical, proven tips to improve your marketing? Especially if you're new in business, and you want effective--not expensive--tips, today's conversation on The PhotoTellers is for you! Grab a pencil and paper . . . this is a quick conversation. My guest is a third-timer here on the show. He's Mr. John Hartman, and he's spent over 33 years teaching Photographers how to market their businesses. If his name sounds familiar, you may know him as the Light Painting Guy. Find those conversations HERE and also HERE. Here's one of my favorite parts of my conversation with John: ________________ JOHN: If you're going to spend money on institutional advertising, you probably are well-off enough in your normal marketing business to be able to do this "image advertising." But that kind of advertising is NOT designed to bring in business. And a lot of people who are new to marketing; that's their mindset about marketing: "Well, it's a waste of money." Well, marketing is only expensive if it doesn't work. So if you if you invest one dollar, and you get 10 back, then how many dollars should you invest? BILL: As many as you can! JOHN: As many as you can borrow--that's right. So that's how you want look at marketing: not as another expense, like the light bill, but as a way to drive business. And there really are only two ways to drive business. One is through marketing, and the other is through innovation. If you're not an innovator, if you're not a marketer; you don't have a photography business, you have an art gallery. _________________ What might you learn from today's episode? Glad you asked. Here are a few teasers: Barriers to Photographers being effective marketers The danger--and ultimate failure--of being an "also" or a "me too" The best way for a family photographer to earn new clients John's experience being a member of an art cooperative The value of the physical print to advertise yourself How to break into a new market Advertising is different than marketing! Neglect this at your own peril "Marketing is only expensive if it doesn't work." How much should you invest? The effective silent auction offering that doesn't limit you to one client This is only the tip of the iceberg! If you want to see more of John's helps for Photographers, hop over to JHARTMAN.COM.  

Almost 2 years ago, I interviewed Photographer John Hartman about his newfound love of light painting. [Find that conversation HERE.] One year later, I checked in to see how his passion had progressed. Turns out, his passion has grown . . . and become financially lucrative. He's in year 43 of professional photography, and he now says, "I'm having more fun making photographs than I've ever had in my life." Why? He gladly explains on this episode of The PhotoTellers. He also discusses: How he gets inspiration from amateurs. Why are they often better than working pros to show off creativity? How he's developed a niche for light painting people's "toys" Why is Light Painting so challenging? Why does he love it? What is the "psychological advantage" to this kind of work? The greatest answer to "What project do you REALLY want to do?" Intrigued to see more? See more of his before and after work HERE. If you'd like to connect with John, and see some of what he's offering to Photographers, find that HERE. Finally: John specifically mentions three resources he loves. Here they are: 500px.com Marco Grobe Joey Lawrence Special thanks again to this episode's sponsor. Click the logo to see what you're missing.

Anne Ewen, curator of heritage exhibits at the Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies in Banff, talks about the new exhibit, “Across the Great Divide,” paintings by John Hartman, which opens Saturday, April 8th.

John Hartman's love of The Smiths was kindled in college but really seems to have reached its pinnacle in recent memory: John tells stories of finally catching a Morrissey show that wasn't cancelled, getting pranked by the MD at Second City who slipped a song from the morose, Manchester band into a show, and connecting with other huge fans of the band via comedy. John speaks on how the dark humor of Morrissey's lyrics his affected his own comedy and how he's come to appreciate The Smiths as artists and musicians more than just appreciating the emotions they evoked in him early on. I speak on how I'm only really familiar with them via popular culture (500 Days of Summer, The Perks of Being a Wallflower, etc.). John still humored me very well. What a guy. Thanks to Busy Beaver Button Company for sponsoring and the Chicago Podcast Cooperative for coordinating sponsors and support.

If you're a student of Photography history, or a child of the "film days," you're already arguing with the title of this post. I can hear you now:  "Light Painting is HARDLY new, nor INNOVATIVE!" True. But let me ask you: Do YOU know anyone who is creating work by light painting? I do--his name is John Hartman, and he's today's guest on The PhotoTellers. By most Photographers, John is known as one of the marketing gurus. Ironic, then, that his conversation delved into the work he's doing as a light painter--work that has required minimal marketing for him to secure several lucrative jobs. John is 42 years into his Photography career. Tune in to learn why he says: "I've never IN MY LIFE had more fun taking pictures than I am right now!" "Thank goodness it's Monday!" "You stay alive through innovation." "There's really NO COMPARISON." [between the finished product of a light painted image and traditional capture.] You'll also learn how light painting is so different than 30 years ago, and the big advantage of growing up a film Photographer. He also shares his advice for getting into light painting, then ends with a brilliant piece of advice from his grandmother. AND BE CERTAIN to look through John's gallery at the bottom of this post! You'll see some dramatic examples of before and after images! Find John's work as a Senior Portrait Photographer HERE, and find the work he does to serve other Photographers HERE. John mentions the influence of HAROLD ROSS. You can find Harold's blog, including free tutorials, by clicking HERE. Look for The PhotoTellers conversation with Harold in the next several weeks. Last but not least, ERIC CURRY. This is the author that John mentions. If you'd like to explore light painting, find Eric's book on Amazon. WARNING: If you want to buy a physical copy . . . bring your big credit card. If you want the Kindle version, though, it's 1/10th the price. Don't have a Kindle? Me neither. But I DO have the free Kindle App that allows me to read Kindle works on my other devices. Amazon gladly walks you through the steps of downloading the App.
