It's hard to figure out James Houston but I did the best I could . James is definitely a character, on and off stage..... excelling in Comedy and Drama, and creating memorable eccentric performances for many years . He also has a wild sense of humor, which is very contagious . Between random remarks , which I admit to be guilty of , we get to learn a little about his early years, his tough times and his triumphs , his higher power , his theatrical life , and his advice for me which I probably won't follow .

Scott and Brian Bricklin have given their fans and me a huge gift - a great second album with 10 exquisite songs - 40 years after their first record " Bricklin " was released . Though they have never stopped making music in different capacities and projects , this is the first time in 27 years since they recorded together. Their last collaboration was " Martin's Dam "- they recorded 2 great records called " The Healing " and " The Sky Above ". Bricklin 2 follows the release of their great anthology that came out in 2024. Which featured a huge amount of unreleased songs from their various bands. This set the stage for the making of a brand new album of new material . Hear how this album came to be, what it was like recording it., the joy and the difficulty of creating it, and we get to hear a lot of insightful information about the songs themselves.
