the Martian Entropy Band

Hi Mumbles, yes you are correct! I had the wrong date above, Mich Theatre gig was actually March 10 1975. I thank you for your kind comments. I have been listening to that tape too, and I am definitely amazed at the level of musicianship we had attained as a group by the time we got to that gig. And...

Here are my recollections of that whole thing: One day in rehearsal at the house of madness this guy Dick Reed showed up. Having just listened to the radio interview tape (which is quite cool) I notice Mike making a comment about us needing a manager to go out and get us gigs. Who knows, maybe Dick Reed...

Thanks to Hugh (Captain Jarvis) I am now endowed with my own musical website, focused on the music I am playing today: www.mandolinmaniac.com. Hugh very kindly secured the URL and put together the site for me as a birthday present -- he said it was a birthday present for the 35 years in which he didn't...

OK, self indulgent cheese disclaimer... in my vain efforts to secure control over the world wide web, I have implemented yet another web site, this time my own... http://www.hughjhitchcock.com or http://www.hughjarvishitchcock.com I started with hughjhitchcock.com, then I noticed my sister used her whole...

I have just put together a mix on one of my tunes called Quit Cryin' I have put the new mix on my myspace page at http://www.myspace.com/hughjarvishitchcock and I also have a web page for it -- http://www.quitcryin.com the new mix is pretty hip, with Jesse Jones Jr on alto saxophone. I actually wrote...
