Parber & Kerstein / Stories From The Heart
Denmark is said to be one of the cetre of good music and I rediscovered one of the hidden Danish treasure in 2001. The treasure was the Parber & Kerstein's early 1990's debut album "Stories From The Heart" produced by Morten Munch (ex."Skagerak"). This one was the only album of Parber & Kerstein. However, they were still active songwriters and were expected to release their brand-new album as the Parber Kerstein Band sometime early 2000’s, but don’t know whether they did. As a matter of fact, Parber & Kerstein released a CD-single "Once In A Lifetime" featuring Tommy Rasmussen (ex-Skagarak) on vocals, the anthem for the official ITU Triathlon World Championship 2001, taken place on the 4th- 5th August 2001 in Fewdericia Denmark. Parber & Kerstein shown how the Scandinavian good hard progressive Westcoast music should be!

Kelly Willard / Willing Heart
It was sixteen years old when Florida native Kelly Willard moved to Nashville. She came across Harlan Rogers who encouraged her and taught her, actually having to talk he into singing solos and then joined Harlan Rogers & Friends, and toured until 1977, when she moved to Southern California. There, Willard played keyboards and sung background vocals on projects for such artists including Tommy Coomes and Roby Duke before Maranatha! Music approached her to record her own solo project. In 1979, Willard released her first solo album “Blame It On The One I Love”. Her second solo album “Willing Heart” followed in 1981. Willard sang all the tunes with her beautiful female voice. She wrote all songs by herself except "Comfortable With You", " Faithful Love" and "Hold On" with Hadley Hockensmith, "A Million Ways" with Pita Delamater and "Only You" with Bruce Hibbard.

In 1977, Hughes got a deal as a solo artist with CBS Records Canada. Thus "Dream Master" had been created. As you can see the below, great Westcoast studio musicians were involved. Hughes performed soft and mellow tunes all through this album. We had to wait for his next album until 1991.

The Sons of Champlin was formed by Bill Champlin in 1965 with guitarist Terry Haggerty, sax player Tim Cain, bassist John Prosser and drummer Jim Meyers.By late 1967 the lineup had changed to include keyboardist/saxman Geoff Palmer, trumpeter Jim Beem, bassist Al Strong, and drummer Bill Bowen. The first album “Fat City” was recorded in 1967 for Trident Records but was shelved until 1999 when it was released on CD in UK.
