I URGE EVERYONE TO LISTEN TO THIS.

Country Artist Charley Crockett is a “True Artist” and he’s overcome a lifetime of “Hard Times” to write about, from being homeless & spending time in jail to the many years of performing as a busker all around the country to try and survive. That all changed though and today Mr. Crockett has released 15 albums, tours the globe, plays shows w/ Willie Nelson and was nominated for Artist of the Year, Album of the Year, and Song of the Year at the 2023 Americana Music Honors & Awards and to me…he is the most authentic singer-songwriter out today.
This is his story.

Singer Songwriter Charley Crockett is such an authentic artist. He has lived one hell of a life to write about at 39 years old, so maybe thats why and how h...

From Klaus
“As we all know, Ringo always needed a littie help from his friends. We recorded this album in my favorite LA studio, Sunset Sound, on Sunset Boulevard. So, for this great album titled “Ringo,” featuring a whole bunch of Ringo hits and a whole bunch of friends who contributed their musicianship and songs. George brought “Sunshine Life for Me,” Paul wrote the beautiful song “Six O’Clock,” and of course John’s “I’m the Greatest.”
With l’m the Greatest” . The thing on the MIND GAMES EP is that you can now hear the track with John singing the song. It’s the guide vocal meant for Ringo - as we all know - he needs a little help from his friends!
On another day, we had the whole group called “The Band” in the studio to help Ringo on the song “Sunshine Life for Me”
Levon played the mandolin, Garth the accordion, Rick the fiddle, Robby the guitar, me on contrabass, George sang the guide vocal, and on drums, our lovely Ringo. Once the track was in the can, it was time for Ringo to sing the song. „I can’t sing that!” he said. “That’s too hard for me…Come on, my friend, off we go.” George grabbed Ringo by his arm, lead him to the microphone, and in no time, Ringo’s vocal was on tape.
