...so who do people want as guests ?
Obviously the Rumours line up would be at the top of most people's lists but its rather difficult to do. I'm trying though all the time! I wrote to Janet Robin and she gave me contact information for other people that were in Lindsey's OOTC band (Liza Carbe, Scott Breadman, Frederico Pol). Opinions on one with one of these people ? I've been trying for the longest time to set one up with Bekka Bramlett but she is quite elusive. I'm trying from half a dozen angles on that one and I'm requesting one w/ Dave Mason again. Eventually I would LOVE to get one with all of the members of Fleetwood Mac (except Danny I guess which is probably next to impossible). I think another one with Jeremy Spencer might be a good idea too as that was our first and not too many people participated in it. Anyway, thoughts on these ? They are quite a lot of work for the guests (as me!) but I think they have been fun and informative too. It gives a different perspective on past events while the present is a little dull... - Marty |

Hi Marty,
I think it would be great to have a Q&A with Bekka Bramlett... Other suggestions: How about Martin Birch or Richard Dashut??? Or maybe Ken Caillat??? Abra |

Hey Marty!
I would LOVE to see a Q&A with John Stewart. Love that guys music. :-) Do you think there is any way possible to get in touch with Sharon Celani. She's one lady we don't know very much about, but would love to hear more. I think she'd be knocked out to do it. Jo and Jensen |

I agree with Abra, Richard Dashut would be a great one if you could get him...but I'm sure that'll be about as easy as getting one of the Rumours crew

I would love to hear from members of Stevie's solo band, who we really haven't heard much from. Like Jo and Jensen said, Sharon Celani would be awesome! I love her! Not only would she get questions about Stevie, which is to be expected, but I would love to ask about her.
Other members of her band that would be great Q & A guests would be Waddy (might be difficult to get, but hey, you got Peter Green!), Bobbeye Hall, Sara Fleetwood (good Stevie and Mick questions), Russ Kunkel, Sandy Stewart, or any of her other backup singers. I would love to learn more about Eliscia Wright. But I don't know how successful these people are today, so it might be difficult in getting some. Thanks for getting our input in this, Marty. I have loved the Q & A's, but unfortunately have not been to familiar with certain guests. Keep up the GREAT work. You know we all appreciate it greatly. |

Another name from the Cradle band would be Steve Ross. Know how to get in touch with him?

Thanks for the input. A lot of the difficulty with these is obviously getting in touch with the people (and then verifying that it is indeed them).
Martin Birch would be neat but where in the world is he now ? Richard Dashut would be awesome; I've been working on that one. I did contact people for John Stewart but at the time his wife was very ill and they said he wasn't doing interviews. Maybe I should try again though... Josh, it's a good idea to shoot for Stevie's crew but I haven't 'bumped' into them that much. I seem to come in contact more with people from the past rather than the present. Barbara-- why Steve Ross and not any of the others ? Just curious. I do have contact info for them but not Steve. As a reminder too, Neal Heywood was in the OOTC band as well. Hopefully he'll be going in August. He had to reschedule but I'm not 100% sure that date is ok with him yet. Thanks for the input everyone! - Marty |

Mindy Stein and Lori Perry Nicks would be nice as well...I belive someone told me that Mindy Stein is possibly teaching a voice class through a school in LA this summer...Maybe you could catch up with her? Lenny Castro and Carlos Rios would be fun to drill
just kidding...anyway...interesting question...How bout Christopher Nicks..or are you just going for musicians?

Laura--
Several of those are interesting too; Christopher Nicks would be an interesting guest too but if he probably did one it would be with the Nicksfix I guess (Ask Christopher ?) Oddly in the 5+ years I've been running The Penguin, the only one from Stevie's 'camp' that I've come in contact with is Ginny. Kind of odd; maybe Stevie's associates maybe only visit the Nicksfix and the exclusively Stevie sites and don't look at the Fleetwood Mac connection? I really don't know. - Marty |

Marty -
Besides being in Lindsey's Cradle Band, he was in Mick's Zoo band that recorded "I'm Not Me" and hung out at Mick's Blue Whale house (according to Mick's book). He also played with the Zoo on Lindsey's SNL appearance. Barbara ![]() |

I must admit it has been quite a while since I last saw Martin Birch´s name on a record... From 1980 to 1992 he produced all of Iron Maiden´s albums, but after that he sort of disappeared...
But maybe someone in the Maiden camp will know how to get in touch with him??? Abra |

Wow if she is teaching this summer it would be a great time right now to get in touch with her. I think she would be great... and if she did it she could help us get in touch with more Stevie solo people... |

Jessica Leigh--
That is some mighty fine detective work! I just sent an email to the Academy so we'll see what happens. Keep your fingers crossed! Thanks. ![]() - Marty |
