Thanks for providing the link to this article. I was listening to Orange Crate Art & looking for the musician credits when I wandered into your site. I try to stay abreast of Mr. Parks' doings. I've been loyal to a fault to musicians from the Sixties, but VDP is one who never disappoints. I'd like to think that Tucson would welcome him with open arms should he venture this far East.
It’s a pleasure to meet a fellow fan, Anon. My wife and I have a standing agreement that if VDP ever plays within a reasonable (or even unreasonable) distance, we drop everything and go.
