" The music business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs.
There's also a negative side..."
and don't forget: before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, you're a mile away and you still have their shoes...

Described by Blues In Britain mag as " a blues drenched class act!"
Everyone has a history, we all consider our own journey important because it's ourselves that feel every bump in the road...but we all travel together; the music on myspace from me, you and everyone else is is a mirror in sound, endlessly varied , yet unique and immensely valuable, as it passes all too quickly...

I had to return and go back to be certain that the music I was hearing on Chris Gibbon's site was in fact actually Chris because this stuff is really great and I simply can't believe that his talents have been overlooked. This is great stuff, Chris and I wish you were closer at hand because I'd invite you into our sessions at Peace Cymbal Music. But let's do what we are able to, longdistance that is and support each other's music as brothers. I want everyone to know that Chris Gibbons is really cookin' and I endorse his venture into this business of music with my heart and soul! Bartholomew Bishop- Peace Cymbal Music
