Jim Armstrong & Alvin Lapp were in Fort Erie this past weekend to lay down Alvin's drum tracks on Jim's forthcoming album, Junction Road. Here is Alvin on Jim's song, "Lost Again" (a-work-in-progress) Alvin was Buddy Guy's touring drummer for 3 years and has also done tour support and studio work for such notables as The Jayhawks, Jackson Browne, the Goo Goo Dolls, Colin James... Thanks to Chris Curry of Sessions On The River http://www.earthskywater.com for having one of the best live drum rooms in Canada and for a great recording experience and to Paul Brady for videotaping Alvin in action. Enjoy!

I know that many artists from North America don't have their music videos uploaded to German video websites. The most popular websites are MyVideo.de and ClipFish.de. That means your European audience does not have the chance to find them.
I understand that most of you don't speak German and are not able to upload videos because of the language barrier. If you would like me to upload your videos to the German video websites, please let me know.
Thanks
