Music
Cliche as it sounds - anything thats good, and by that i mean anything that sounds like the person writing it really enjoyed making it and had a strong idea for what they wanted.

Playing poker with men in a rough and tumble southern juke-joint is not the typical activity of a 10 year old boy but it was for Gary Revel. Dancing with waitresses to Rock & Roll, Blues and Country music coming from the jukebox was also part of his usual child's-play. In High School he formed his first Rock 'N Roll band and after graduating joined the US Navy during the Vietnam War. Hollywood California beckoned and he started writing songs and making records beginning in the Capitol Records recording studios.
Danger, intrigue and murder followed as Gary entered the darkness of the investigation of the Martin Luther King Jr. assassination. His investigation of the killing took him on a journey that would bring him into Brushy Mountain Prison in Petros Tennessee to meet face to face with the convicted killer of Martin Luther King Jr., James Earl Ray. From this came his investigation in which he found that others killed MLK, not James Earl Ray.
The story of that investigation has been optioned for a movie by William Sachs. Bill has written a screenplay, MLK, and negotiations are proceeding for the financing of the movie.
Thank you for being a traveler on the Gary Revel Friendship Train. I hope your ride is a pleasant one. Best wishes to you and may all your dreams come true.
