Congratulations Kathleen.
Everything you do is so meticulous and professional.
The quality of your work is not easily equaled.
I love your Whammy forum because so often, it just whisks me off to a very pleasant place in time that I had forgotten.
Music is the sound track of our lives because it is easy to remember who you were when a particular song was out; what you were thinking, what you were wearing, who you were in love with at the time.
Your forum is fun because you get to see that people who have come to be our friends had very similar thoughts, feelings and experiences at the same time.
And that my dear is just AWESOME!

Thanks, Joyce!

The word "meticulous" is a big part of a lot of things I do, thanks for noticing, even when I don't always notice it in myself.  My father has always been a perfectionist, I allow myself some mistakes, he doesn't!  Or he doesn't admit it!

I remember when I first heard Luther Vandross, in 1984-85, I was dating a lovely man named Keith, but he thought I was immature...he was probably right because I still am!! Ha.

I only had 1 visitor to my Luther Vandross, I haven't made any new threads since then, I'm waiting for the group-vacation to be over and everyone to get back here!

                                      LUTHER VANDROSS
                    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luther_vandross

A great man, great voice, greatly missed.
What is there to say? We watched the beauty of Luther Vandross through his weight gains and losses, he always sounded beautiful.

                  QUOTES and MUSIC VIDEOS below the photo!!!

 

                                                QUOTES:

"See, I'm not the type of writer that has 400 songs in a suitcase someplace on the shelf. I'm sort of a rise-to-the-occasion-type of writer, so when I know I'm going to record, I get in the mood to write."

"All through school, I was losing hundreds of pounds in school, so that's a journey - that's an old journey. I'm tired of that. I know that road."

"I'd like to be remembered as a premier singer of songs, not just a popular act of a given period."

                                         MUSIC VIDEOS:

"So Amazing" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e8zXldXQ6Tg

"Take You Out" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dw2kx74Zs0

"Never Too Much" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EkAY0iS4TVk

In 1984, my kids went off to have adventures around the world with their dad; I moved to Los Angeles to begin adventures of my own-the summer Olympics were to begin, the pope was coming to visit and so of course when I arrived I felt all of this welcoming atmosphere and I was hooked.
Luther was for slow dancing with my hubby, or sitting on the sofa in the dark reminiscing about when we were kids.
Seems so long ago-Luther is truly loved.
