MORE INFO:
Both LEE AARON and RALPH will be sharing a core group of musicians
comprised of; Jane Milliken (keyboards), Lee's musical director and
CD co-producer - Ms. Milliken has played with Amy Sky, Holly Cole,
Parachute Club, Headpins, Hugh Marsh and others; Graham Howell (sax),
a member of both RALPH and the LEE AARON group, in addition to duties
with Powder Blues; and John Cody (drums), a prolific musician who's
played with Bo Diddley, Ray Condo, and many more - Cody's tales of
touring Canada in the 70's are featured in Dave Bidini's book, "On A
Cold Road". John also writes for the American music magazine, Goldmine.
A RALPH show is a fun evening of spoken word, Beat sensibility, cool jazz,
and my belief that poetry can be presented as part of a popular culture mix
that is positive and universal. The original notion of what Kerouac called
"Beatitude" was a celebration of life, discovery, experience and goodness
in your heart. It's a very key ingredient that's been overlooked by popular
stereotyping. Poetry is not negative and if my kind of Beatnik LiteŠ can
make people give it another chance, then that's great!"
