Today in Music History: December 31, 1997
In less than two hours, we will pay witness to the end of 2014. With its ending comes a new beginning: A new year filled with promise and hope. Promises and hopes come in the form of resolutions for some while others enter the year without resolve.
Embrace the past. . .
Before looking ahead, let's step back in time to the year 1997. It was on this day, December 31, 1997, when an American Hall of Fame pianist made his last appearance on this earth thereby no longer performing before live audiences.
Do you remember Floyd Cramer?
(October 27, 1933 – December 31, 1997)
Floyd Cramer was an American Hall of Fame pianist who was one of the architects of the "Nashville sound". He was known for his "slip note" piano style, where an out-of-key note slides into the correct note. Wikipedia

Empower the present. . .
We are in the final hours of New Year's Eve reflecting upon the past year and waiting in anticipation the arrival of 2015! With New Year's Eve comes immense celebration: partying well into the night and even beyond the bewitching, magical midnight hour. Families and friends gather to "ring out the old and ring in the new!" amid the socialization of dancing, singing, eating, drinking and watching or lighting fireworks. Many will attend a watchnight service, a late-night Christian church service.
"Happy New Year!"
Enrich the future. . .
Happy New Year! Many blessings for a Happy and Healthy New Year to all our veterans, troops, and their families.
