Remembering Ray Sawyer
The singer of the iconic song, “The Cover Of The Rolling Stone” passed away on December 31, 2018 at the age of 81. Usually a back up singer for Dr Hook and the Medicine Show, he sang lead for this song and will always be remembered for it.
Gena Perala – “Good Girl” – A Review

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE New Visual Single Release: Good Girl FEB 20th, by Vancouver based Singer Songwriter Gena Perala (pronounced Jenna). Gena Perala releases a haunting new single […]
Taken From My Shazam – Funky President
Listened and shazamed this tune in September 2015. Great funk from the Godfather Of Soul himself, Mr. James Brown. Funky President (People It’s Bad) was released as a single in 1974 and appeared on his 1974 album Reality. Apparently this track is one of his most sampled and the wah wah guitar has been used […]

Remembering David Peel
April 6, 2017 saw the passing of David Peel, founder of David Peel and the Lower East Side. He and the band were early proponents of “street rock” and embraced the hippie/marijuana culture of the 60’s and 70’s. One could also say that he was an early punk pioneer as well. His recording career spanned […]
Do the columns have a bit of pink in them, or is that an effect of the lighting?
Beautiful pic!
Don’t quite remember. I am thinking the lighting. The stained glass were huge windows and the colours danced everywhere. Quite spectacular on a sunny day. Always a different look. When they do all the windows it will be crazy. A lot of the windows are still clear glass. The place has been under construction since the 1920’s and will likely not be finished in our lifetimes.
Yeah, in the old days (dark ages/renaissance) those temples took way more than one lifetime.
We have been in just one that was built in a reasonable time frame, Salisbury Cathedral was built in 30 odd years. From what I have read, they built it before there was a town and is the only example of a cathedral built in just one architectural style. One of the original Magna Cartas is on display there.
If I had to guess, the pink is an element in the marble itself. It is a common color in much of the granite from that area, but the predominant color is not the pink. You would only catch it at certain times of day when the light strike it from the right angle. That is why as they get further away, they appear less pink.
Very cool photo. I love the perspective.
Thanks Red. I was absolutely stunned by this place. Everywhere you looked it was beautiful and different. Unlike anything i had ever seen.
