Where were you in 1969? This is a picture of us then in Golden Gate Park Do You Remember?
What a great time that was playing as the "BigOle Jet Airliner" flew over us as we kicked off the song. We are all sad to hear that Paul Pena, the writer of that great song, has passed away. We love you Paul.
My wife Kathy Peck has had an exciting year as well with H.E.A.R. One of the momentous events was the lead story in News Week . Front page cover and 8 page article. Check it out - lots of good info there. Another article on the CNN website about Ipods and your hearing. She has completed 3 non profit auctions on E-Bay for the "Tech Awards Music & Sound Auction" and helped raised money for the "Chet Helms" family. My hat is off to you my love.
Lots of new pictures of our trips ofMendocino, Idaho and more of Yosemite.
 with the water as high as we have ever seen it. A bit of work to get it all up on the net but will be working at it soon Click on their link for a taste.
Audio loops? Tons of free loops from nature and worldly sounds to music from my good friend's site from Barcelona. Here is what they offer "royalty free music, sound effects, midi files, audio software and sound advice". Of coarse, there are some fantastic CDs you can buy. Partners in Rhyme.
Had a blast playing with the Squid Vicious Orchestra at the Tribal Stomp in memory of ChetHelms and the Family Dog in Golden Gate Park with a fantastc line up of groups and friends from the sixties. Woah!
After fronting the band for a few Steve Miller songs, the Vicious Orchestra backed up Nick Gravenites and as I turned around, Greg Douglas a life long peer and friend was playing slide right beside me and brought me back to the days in the 70's when Steve Miller's "Book of Dreams" was off the charts and Greg and I were touring doing huge venues and flying around in Lear Jets. AH Yes! "The good old days". Like the "Day on the Green" at the Oakland Coliseum.
How I got started, and my work as a producer in my Biography.
Check out Pictures of my bands and shots of me "back in the day."
July 12th's trip to the LICK OBSERVATORY You can actually on a clear day see Half-Dome from Mt Hamilton. The pictures of the moon I took with my digital camera looking through the lens of some amateur's telescopes outside the observatory.
