Steve Mann R . I . P . video


(Note video of the artist starts @ around 2 mins in .)
Good friend and blues (great) guitarist singer songwriter Frank Fotusky mentioned this wonderful player each time he guested on my program (Us Folk here in Portland, Maine over the years. He would say;"You got to hear his stuff, he's a remarkable player who influenced & or played with countless formidable performers!" He was talking about Steve Mann, whose enormous gift and talents on the guitar touched thousands both the players and audiences. He was a heralded an inventive blues guitar great but got sidelined by a nervous breakdown in 1967. Somehow he was able to recoup and resurfaced, and was booked in and around his Berkeley , California base, Frank Fotusky performed with him a series of shows on the west coast in 2005, he refered to it as a dream come true to be performing with such a brilliant player. My friend Frank also had introduced me to Facebook & introduced Steve to Facebook , Frank also introduced me to Steve Mann on Facebook whom I friended up only weeks ago & he friended back, only a few weeks had passed I was only to find that this incredibly gifted brilliant guitar player died on the 9th of September 2009.
I found this video searching YouTube it is one of an all too few videos of Steve performing.  If you got some share em

Thanks Frank.
Rest in Peace Steve Mann.

Animoto videos; ctd3's 9 Panel Mosaics & others


A twitter contact recently discovered Animoto and reminded me of just how cool AniMoTo is, they continue to expand their services I am a huge fan and user of the service which I found via a Vimeo contact. All the images are by yours truly with very few exceptions ( two nine panels from my Flickr favorites).
