Hello Again! This week's Revival features the Cathy Richardson Band. The first time I them play was on one side stages opening up for Ted Nugent at Summerfest in 1996. I was so impressed with Cathy's vocals that I bought two of their CD's on the spot. Live @Park West and Fools on a Tandem. I saw her again in 1998 right here in Racine at Harbor Fest. That time I got to meet Cathy. It was after the show while she was signing autographs. While she signing my Snake Camp CD, we chatted for a few moments about her music influences. Very nice lady and down to earth.
I didn't hear anything about her nor her band for years until I recently discovered that Cathy has sang for the newly reformed Big Brother and the Holding Company. She is now currently the lead singer for Jefferson Starship. So my friends, what celeberty, actor/actress, sports star, rock star have you met? Please tell.

No Grace Slick?
I once met Charles Bukowski and got to drink with him (and about a hundred other people) after a reading.
Charles Bukowski? Never heard of him till now. I googled up him and he sounds like an interesting read. I'll have check out some his stuff. Any recommendations?
Grace Slick has retired,but here's a video of Jefferson Starship with Cathy Richardson.
Thanks for the vid, Drew. I didn't realize that she has the vocal power that she does.
As for a Bukowski recommendation, there's just so much of it. The guy literally lost more material than other writers produce. For novels, try his first, Post Office. Short stories or poetry, try anything. I would also recommend borrowing the DVD,Bukowski:Born into This, from the library.
