SWEET LIFE - A NEW CD BY JIM SPEAKE

This recording had a long gestation, starting when Jim was born in Florence Alabama in1945. This was very close to the place where musical magic was to be made, the famous recording studios in Muscle Shoals. By coincidence, Percy Sledge was born in the same little town where his family and Jim lived, Leighton, Alabama. He had a major hit with his first recording in 1966, and the "Muscle Shoals Sound" was firmly established. Jim Speake had music in his life from an early age, because he sang along with his mother when she played the piano and sang. A track of his first recording session at four, can be found on Jim's first CD, "Jim Speake Sings My Generation." It was expected that he would go into the family business of farming. Instead, when Speake went to college, he earned degrees in Business Administration, University of Alabama and ultimately Landscape Architecture, University of Georgia. If he had followed my heart, he would have studied music. That was a road Jim did not take seriously until he moved to New York City in 2000. There, while studying acting and voice, Jim was lucky enough to meet some key people who have been vital to his development as a singer. At H.B. Studio, he met KT Sullivan. KT introduced Jim to Eric Michael Gillett. Eric Michael introduced him to Patrick DeGennaro. Patrick introduced him to Lennie Watts and Steven Ray Watkins. 2015 marked the tenth anniversary of his collaboration with these two talented men. Most of the arrangements on this recording were developed working with this same team. It is not a stretch to say thatSpeake would not have made this recording had he not met Lennie and Steven. He especially appreciates Lennie's support through this journey and also introducing him to Paul Rolnick.

NEW BOOK BY DAVID FRIEDMAN RELEASED - NOW AVAILABLE ON AMAZON

David Friedman, author of "The Thought Exchange", has announced the release of his latest bool "The Healing Power of Negative Thoughts and Uncomfortable Sensations" now available on Amazon.com. In his revelatory new book, David Friedman, author of the best selling book THE THOUGHT EXCHANGE - OVERCOMING OUR RESISTANCE TO LIVING A SENSATIONAL LIFE, looks directly at our "NEGATIVE" thoughts and "UNCOMFORTABLE" sensations and reveals them not as things to be feared or ignored, but rather as messages from our past, tools we can use to heal any long-avoided traumas that may arise when we try to "think positive." How many times in the course of our New Thought studies have we heard phrases such as "Think POSITIVE", "CANCEL those NEGATIVE thoughts" and "Don't think NEGATIVE thoughts or NEGATIVE things will happen!" And how many times, as students and seekers of health and happiness, have we found ourselves unable to stay with that "Think Positive" philosophy and ended up thinking, "There's something wrong with me, I'm just not doing it right." Could it be that by trying to get rid of our "NEGATIVE" thoughts and "UNCOMFORTABLE" sensations, we are, in fact, suppressing, ignoring and avoiding one of the greatest tools we have for healing and living a full life?
