Foreigner promptly followed up its blockbuster debut with the equally successful Double Vision LP in 1978, which featured the FM mega-hits "Hot Blooded" and the driving title track. Opting not to mess with a good formula, the band wisely sticks to the polished hard rock sound that made its first record such a hit. Aside from the big singles, other highlights include the swaggering "Love Has Taken Its Toll" and the more restrained "Blue Morning, Blue Day." As always, Lou Gramm's impeccable rock vocals lead the way, supported by Mick Jones' tasteful, arena-sized guitar riffs. ~ Andy Hinds
While the U.S. was being swept up by disco mania in 1978, Foreigner issued another hard rock tour de force, DOUBLE VISION. It was unthinkable that the sextet could outdo its solid 1977 self-titled debut, but it somehow did. Lou Gramm and company issued another set of rock radio staples and rock-steady album tracks, the best-known being such perennial arena rockers as "Hot Blooded" and the title track. But the highpoints didn't just stop there--such oft-overlooked compositions as "Blue Morning, Blue Day," "Lonely Children," and "I Have Waited So Long" are just as strong. DOUBLE VISION solidified Foreigner's standing as a '70s rock sensation.

Michael Amburgey and Bobby Hanson first played together in 1972 as an acoustic blues duo called the Back Door Men. Pioneers of the Coastal Empire's burgeoning blues and rock scene of the 1970s, Amburgey and Hanson were a major influence on many Savannah musicians of their genre and era. Bobby and Michael are members of the Savannah Folk Music Society and play at the Society's First Friday concerts several times a year.Speaking of their new CD release "Honky Blues," Bobby Hanson says, "Michael and I are thrilled to finally have these songs on a CD. Some of the songs are new, and some were written in 1972 and 1973. If anyone wants to know where we're coming from musically, listen to the lyrics of the song 'Honky Blues.' That says what we're all about. We felt that way in 1972, and we still feel that way today."Michael AmburgeyMichael started playing music during the folk music revival of the 1960s. At that time, his primary influences were Woody Guthrie and Bob Dylan, as well as the Koerner, Ray & Glover records. He began playing in rock bands while in high school, mostly covering English groups. At age 18, he was exposed to jazz through Ken Palmer, one of the finest jazz musicians Savannah has known. As well as teaching him, Michael credits Ken with giving him a feel for the music and the mentality of the different periods. Michael met Bobby Hanson in the early 1970s, and through Bobby's vast record collection was exposed to a wide range of music, primarily ...

A message for parents:The sanskrit mantras on this CD are among the most basic and powerful mantras for your children of all ages. The music is purposely arranged to lead your child from an active mind to a calm and meditative state. In my own experience, I have found that chanting mantras will help a child feel more relaxed and focused. I chant mantras with my children on our way to school to center them for the day and before bedtime to promote healthy dreams. I’ve also chanted mantras to soothe and distract my children during times of nervousness. What you will eventually find is that your children will feel more at peace with themselves and the world around them. The Ganpathi Mantra with affirmations was added at the last minute and I ...
