NAMM Winter Show 2014 REVIEW (part one)

NAMM – one of my favorite music events. It had been quite a while since I made that trip, and was eager to see many old friends and colleagues.

Hugh McCracken – the Shining Example

Introduction

I’m not a ‘Dear diary’ kind of guy. When I write, it’s generally because I have thoughts I’d like to share with a wider public; to make a statement, to open up a topic for discussion, feedback, and … I won’t be telling you what I ate for breakfast – unless it’s pertinent to the […]
