Classic Albums Live performing
Led Zeppelin: II
Rolling Stone magazine called this legendary album "one of the greatest, heaviest and raunchiest albums ever, steeped in both Delta and Chicago blues, sixties psychedelia and gentle to bone-crushing dynamics. Highlights ranged from the chugging, apocalyptic chaos of Whole Lotta Love to the bullet-fast fuzz riffs of Heartbreaker to Bring It on Home, a juke-joint blues gone mad."

Karla Bonoff & Jonathan Edwards
The legacy of Karla Bonoff as a writer and her perseverance as a performer are spoken best in a Billboard Magazine review of her All My Life recording: "Long before Alanis and Jewel, there was a breed of singer/songwriter whose earthly anthems of soul-searching, heartache and joy touched souls in a way few can muster today."
A Jonathan Edwards concert is warm as summer sunshine, real as truth, intimate as a long overdue visit between friends. Four decades into a stellar career of uncompromising musical integrity, the man simply delivers, night after night, songs of passion, songs of insight, songs of humor, all rendered in that pure and powerful tenor which like fine wine has only grown sweeter with age.
