Artists Statement: "It's not art if you aren't connected to your creative energy because of the restraints placed on you by high tech cameras and photo editing software. I still enjoy putting pencil to paper and pulling out an old manual film camera. My motto has always been...keep it simple because creativity equals infinity."

Ron Hope on percussion along with tight keys and horn made this a sweet, head bobbing experience, we certainly enjoyed the playing of some well refined masters of the craft. Nothing better than cool jazz in a dimly lit bar on cool, breezy, star bangle summer night. John Eshelman-piano, Roger Hines-bass, Randy Mather-sax, Dolly King-vocals, Ron 'Chopper' Hope-percussion
