A guitar signed by Joe Walsh has been added to the Rock Relief Auction.

So sad. Hard to lose folks who are iconic to our generation.

Wishing you happiness and joy on your birthday and in the coming year!

Any selkies in the group, James?

Music is one powerful medium. It has the power to transport the listener back in space and time to another world, a world gone by. Everyone has a song that reminds them of a certain someone. Today I heard J. D. Souther, and I instantly thought of my high school crush, Wayne. What song reminds you of someone who was close to your heart?

Ooooooo... House of Frankenstein (1944) Karloff has become the doctor to Glenn Strange's monster.

Mr. Rubenstein playing Rachmaninoff is a heavenly experience, especially when accompanied by the CSO.

Yup!

Tommy messaged me this morning that the auction will be offering goodies from other big acts including Miss Pat Benatar, KISS and Metallica. It's all for a great cause!

If you aren't familiar with Tommy, here are some promo clips from previous years that explain Rock Relief. Tommy truly rocks!!! 😊 https://coolcleveland.com/2015/09/local-drummer-tommy-amatos-rock-relief-pays-it-forward-hrrocksinonp/ https://fox8-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/fox8.com/2015/09/30/local-keyboardist-to-benefit-from-annual-tommy-amato-rock-relief-2015/amp/?amp_js_v=a2&amp_gsa=1&usqp=mq331AQA#referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&amp_tf=From %1%24s&ampshare=https%3A%2F%2Ffox8.com%2F2015%2F09%2F30%2Flocal-keyboardist-to-benefit-from-annual-tommy-amato-rock-relief-2015%2F

Raspberries drummer extraordinaire, Jim Bonfanti, has donated to support fellow Cleveland drummer extraordinaire Tommy Amato in his annual Rock Relief fundraiser.

Meet My Girl's parent piece as played by the incomparable A. Rubenstein with the fabulous CSO under the direction of Fritz Reiner. Circa 1956, I believe.
