Stay loose and play tight. This has been my mantra whenever I have stepped (or stumbled) onto a stage with friends or by myself to sing and play guitar. When I gave this advice to my good friend Artie Isaac a prior to the opening night of his fantastic production of "Our Town" in Bexley, Ohio, he posted my missive on his equally fantastic blog (Net Cotton Content) and I found that this advice resonated with others. So, into the blogosphere we go!
I plan to write on occasion to share thoughts about my community. Perhaps I will be able to post some music news as well. You are very kind to be reading this and I look forward to becoming part of your community.
Hi Parker,
Thanks for letting us know you have a blog! I own the tapes for both your albums & would love to buy the CDs--any plans to offer them for sale?

Great to see your right sided creativity bubling back to the surface. Looking forward to the CD's so we have some tunes for the next dartmouth night.
Looking forward to catching up over the holidays.

I believe that I still have the "Looking for you" and "Headed home" TAPES!! I need to upgrade so that I can jam to some Parker tunes in my soccer mom van. Hope that you all are doing well!

Many years ago (call it 1985-6ish), you visited Berea College, Berea KY, where a former schoolmate of yours Steve Bolster was and still is a choral director. I was one of his students in those days, and I came up on stage with you and played a keyboard lick as you put together a jam session. We had a great time!
I also bought a tape of "Home to the Heart" and played it till it wore out! Great stuff! I'd love to get a CD or even iTunes downloads.
Hope all is well with you!
