Firstly, my sincere apologies to all of you who joined the vbulletin forum on Stan's web page. I hope you will all come and join us here! (By the way... if you are already a member of 'ning', you can simply use your existing login and password to sign in)
Stan's site is under new "creative management"! We found that vbulletin was just a tad 'dour'. This network allows for more interaction and freedom to be yourself. Add photos, music, videos, etc.
While the site was created to remember/discuss Stan, we openly invite and look forward to all discussions about music, musicians and the like. I only request that we still 'keep it clean"! Remember, there are kids out there that may want to participate.
Again, so sorry if this causes any inconvenience. But I do believe that you will all enjoy this new extension of Stan's web site!
I would still request that you all please sign in using your name and not a screen name so as to avoid 'spammers'. This will help the administrators and moderators greatly with their task and time!
I received an email (below) from a lovely gentleman by the name of Irving Mesher. It seems Irving was a childhood friend of Stan’s and next door neighbor. I do have a very faint memory of hearing about a childhood buddy named "Irv". However, Mr. Mesher was known as "Bob" back then! It seems that Irv is the man responsible for getting Stan playing the sax. Turns out that Stan wanted to play the drums in Irv’s band! (DRUMS!!! OIY!!) But since they already had a drummer, (phew!

I added Lotta Livin' too my page. Do you know George Young? I asked him to join.
I also asked Don Hill to join. He Was that wonderful alto player with the Treniers for 50 years. He also played with Satch in the 40s. He also played in a lot of sections with Sonny Stitt Who he went to school with.
Happy 4th.
Awee:)) Great...ummmm.... well...where there's a will there's a way I always say;) It IS a great video....and Stans "Didn't We" would round it out to perfection:)) Thank you for your A-OK darlin! Luv ya much:) xoxo
LOL How funny to see the video below...same as I had added and referred to Eva and Lou haha. So cte they are, and so are the otters as well;) Funniest thing is??? That video is what brings me here. I was 1/2 kidding when I added that last statement about adding Stans "Didn't We," but I really think it would be so Saxy sensational to see that come to fruition...My question is...How does that idea strike you?:) If I have "struck" out, that is more than ok, but curiosity never is solved by being curios:) Man, you must be satiated by now of me today LOL haaaaaaaa Luv ya much xoxo
Today I was sitting back relaxing and listening to AOL Radio and just heard one of Stan's tunes off the Apasionado Album called Lonely Lady. Man, Stan sure knew how to express himself on his tenor. I didn't even know the same song is on the music player right here at Stan's Place. (o: How great is that!
Eva and I want to wish you a fun and safe 4th and we hope all the recent publicity Stella has received on Times Square hasn't gone to her big puppy head.lol As for us, we'll be home trying to convince our dog Annie that the world isn't coming to an end, and the fireworks will stop eventually. We hope to spend the rest of the summer like these two otters in the video below. Love you, Lou and Eva
My dictionary of "diction and fiction" is ever growing...LMBO;)

Is there any way to get a copy of the whole recording with Stan? I went toAmazon, they seem to only have the 1st part, Do you know what Huey album has the whole thing? Just to add, the way Stan weaves around the chord changes is wonderful. Every bridge is a master piece.
LOL Yes, the only place you will find testosterone in my life is on my page here...lol..OH and my dog, but I demand(de manned?)lol him, so he now even wears a bow in his hair...it is a boy bow so he is not fully confused LOL
Yes, I think you are right about traveling communities. 4 is my fix. I can barely keep up with that number. ;) This, of course is Tops for me.
