MUSIC SUSTAINS, INSPIRES AND MOTIVATES...............
Favorites are those artists who "go out there where no other person is"..Like.. CHET BAKER, MILES DAVIS, IGOR BUTMAN, JUDY GARLAND, MARIAH CAREY, RAY CHARLES, ARETHA FRANKLIN.....AND SO MANY MODERN DAY ARTISTS WHO ALMOST MEASURE UP....
Movies
ONLY documentaries and indie films have much merit...
Television
YUK...SO MUCH DAMAGE HAS BEEN DONE TO SOCIAL CONSCIOUSNESS HERE...FORTUNATELY ITS A DYING MEDIUM...REPLACED BY THIS?
Books
WHATS THAT? Seriously I was once a voracious reader but now like most just can't find the space/time. The DUMB BOX is the culprit of course and we all know it...if you can tear yourself away...tie yourself tight to something and try not to kill yourself laughing while you read short stories by JOHN STEINBECK and PAUL ST.PIERRE...a good way to get started again for sure...SHORT STORIES
Heroes
STEPHEN LEWIS...RALPH NADER...DAVID SUZUKI...GEORGE CARLIN
I Want to work with talented hard working people who create and perform their own music
