Today I got an e-mail from Jeanne Page. She found my bouzouki blog and saw the video featuring her son Adam Page. I love to get messages or e-mails from blog readers, because it gives me the feeling I'm not doing all this just for myself. So please feel free to post your messages here.
Jeanne also gave me the link to a video by her band "The Next Chapter" which also features her son Adam. This video was filmed for a television show called “Southwest Sounds”. The Next Chapter performing two original songs. "Old Time Mountain Jam" and "In The Zone." The second one features Adam on Bouzouki. The first one features a fine Hammered Dulcimer. Well worth to have a look at.
