Thanks To Our Golden Circle

Hey Soul Mates,
lots going on in RushHourSoulLand. We've been listening to the latest mix of our rerecording of A Talent For Loving. In a word: SLAMMING! It's big. We're going to make a real run with this track in the UK. Doug predicts 14 weeks at the top of the charts. Hello!

I have to, on behalf of the band, thank a very select group of people without whom our video project would not be happening. They have all made a sacrifice for Rush Hour Soul (and our fans) by contributing heavily from several hundred to several thousand dollars. Rush Hour Soul is extraordinarily grateful to have such supporters and the future of the group has been secured by their generosity. They are:

Nathan Kelsey (please visit sponsor link:
KS1 Security)
Pat Vail
Herb Kelsey, Sr.
The Tokahutas
George Christo, Jr.
The Kutacs
The Rolstons (please visit sponsor link:
Free Heart Farm)

Many more of you helped us on our way to the UK back in May. All of you will be remembered by this band. You are truly the steam in our engine.

The video for A Talent For Loving (directed by
William Archer; line production by Home Films, Ltd.) will be completed in the next few days, pending our approval of the audio mix. We cannot wait to share it with all of you and the whole wide world. It's been a long process for us, but worth every ounce of energy and resources for us to fulfill part of our dream. That's right, part. Because this is simply the beginning.

Now get our there and have a great weekend.
Love, Power, Peace

John Lennon 40 Years On

Remembering John Lennon today. Forty years have flashed by. I can still hear my clock radio turning on to the incongruent sound of the Beatles on Dec. 9, 1980 and wondering why? I think about John every day. I am fortunate to have been able to make pilgrimage to Mendips, Abbey Road and Strawberry Fields, NY; to play on stages like the Cavern, the Jacaranda and the Troubadour where he performed or made trouble, or both. Here’s a quick playlist for you and me. (Just Like) Starting Over I Should Have Known Better Bless You Nobody Told Me Strawberry Fields Forever Nowhere Man Enjoy the day. Fill it with peace. Fill it with music. #JohnLennon #Liverpool

Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air - Book Review

“The Murderous Haircut of the Mayor of Bel Air” is a trippy new mystery novel from Phillip Mottaz. It captures the grit and gilt of the City of Angels with the flair of a contemporary Raymond Chandler. The brisk pace and wit are reminiscent of Douglas Adams’s entries in the detective game. Flourishes of  Fletch  and “Medium” also spring to mind. However, Mottaz has added a psychic/mutant/superhuman touch and his own comedic voice, structure and internal monologues to the proceedings that help the author announce his own style and the arrival of a literary heroine for a new generation. Hairstylist and budding private investigator, Danica Luman is the perfect character to convey the irony, angst and sarcasm needed to tell a 21st century L.A. crime story. Danica also represents anyone who thought it would be neat to get tangled up in a mystery and the darkly comic cautionary tale that follows. The genre is recognizable, but Mottaz offers a fresh take on the not-ready-for-prime-ti...

Getting Better All The Time

Hey Soul Mates, long week. Thanks to everyone who sent along their best wishes for my recovery from food poisoning. I'm still creaky, but there has been a lot going on. The world keeps on spinning. Well, I finally got our ntsc (North American video) master of " A Talent For Loving " made. The original was in the pal format, so it had to be converted before it could be distributed here. As a result of several snafu's, I've upgraded my dvd drive. And thanks to KS1 Security's continuing sponsorship of the band, we have a new color photo printer! That means we can make super-pretty press kits to send out to the record labels and industry players. It's taken a long summer to get to this point. We've had several people of decent magnitude utterly flake out on us. I ain't gonna name names, but you know who you are. As a result, the band is forging ahead on its own (manufacturing our own dvd's is just the tip of the iceberg). We aim to get our music h...
