Bluesrains Watching 'Keith Jarrett "Summertime"'

About

Description
Ive learned along the way, life holds no promises or light to guide the way.

Ive learned never to expect anything, assume anything or take anything or anyone for granted.

Ive learned that the only person I should depend on, is myself.

Ive learned not to feel sorry for the things I dont have, but to look at all the good I do have.

Ive also learned, life isnt about how wonderful you look, the clothes you wear, the house you live in or the car you drive.

It isnt about how much money you have, how many vacations you go on, or your social standing.

It isnt about being the best, the first, the smartest or the one with the most toys.

Life is about how you live it and who you made smile along the way.

Its about Listening, Giving, Sacrifice & Understanding.

Its about Forgiveness, Tenderness, Truth & Love!

Born into a musical family I cant help but brag about my Dad. We lived in Memphis, TN during the 50's when Dad wrote, sang, played, and recorded, My Love Song, Point Of View, What will I Do And Wrong Again At Sun Records. During his time at Sun Records, Dad became friends with Sam Phillips and many of the rising stars, also at the beginning of their music careers. Sun started many great talents such as, Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, B.B. King, Howlin Wolf, Rufus Thomas, Roy Orbison, Charlie Rich and numerous others. It was a very significant time in music history, which set the pace for new beginnings in Rock n Roll. Other songs Dad wrote are, Come On Little Moma, Where Did You Stay Last Night, Green Back Dollar and Foolish Foolish Heart, which he co wrote with Ray Harris. Dad also wrote Night Theme which was recorded by The Mark II, Lawrence Welk, Al Hirt, Ernie Freeman, Felix Slakins, The Phantoms, Floyd Cramer, Bob Crosby, The Chantays, and The Preps. Night Theme is Dads biggest hit, which was number one on Bill Board's Music Charts, for over a year. In addition, Hargus Robbins recorded Dad's Rip Tide and Chet Atkins recorded Teensville.Today Dad's music is still played all over the world and he continues to write and play.I feel very lucky to have these precious memories and Im very proud of my Dads many accomplishments and contributions to the wonderful world of music!!

Holy
"The New 10 Commandments"

1- Thou shall not worry, for worry is the most unproductive of all human activities.

2- Thou shall not be fearful, for most of the things we fear never come to pass.

3- Thou shall not cross bridges before you come to them, for no one yet has succeeded in accomplishing this.

4- Thou shall face each problem as it comes. You can only handle one at a time anyway.

5- Thou shall not take problems to bed with you, for they make very poor bedfellows.

6- Thou shall not borrow other people's problems. They can better care for them than you can.

7- Thou shall not try to relive yesterday for good or ill, it is forever gone. Concentrate on what is happening in your life and be happy now!

8- Thou shall be a good listener, for only when you listen do you hear ideas different from your own. It is hard to learn something new when you are talking, and some people do know more about certain things than you do.

9- Thou shall not become "bogged down" by frustration, for 90% of it is rooted in self-pity and will only interfere with positive action.

10- Thou shall count thy blessings, never overlooking the small ones, for a lot of small blessings add up to big ones.

"Arthur Brown" Puts A Spell On You! - Bluesrains



Arthur Brown is an award winning rock 'n roll legend. In fact, he is generally deemed as the pioneer and father of the psychedelic rock movement of the 1960s and has continued to inspire rock bands over decades and still does today. Arthur has talents that are as diverse as they are multiple.
He is probably best known for his number one hit in the UK "Fire" released back in 1968.
