STEPHEN GOLDIN - THE SPECIAL

Looking up at the moon this evening as I took in a relaxing soak in the hot tub, gave me the thought of a werewolf evening. The clouds that drifted slowly across the sky, were the hazy and silky kind, as the wind rushed through the Cottonwoods. It seemed as if it were one of those nights that a mystery was happening, not only somewhere in the world; but somewhere in the Universe.

It really did have that movie quality to it, since I had already framed it in my mind's eye, and sat back to consciously "Put myself in the Quantum physics of the World spinning around me."

Something is happening, and still is as my mind continues to swirl around those imminent possibilities. All I have to do was think about it, 'in how it all came about,' but my thoughts kept turning back to the upcoming Stephen Goldin Special on June 15th, 2010 and thinking; 'How is this going to play out in time?'

I became aware of Stephen Goldin in the mid seventies when one of his science fiction books hit the market, and I happened to be lucky enough to get my hands on a copy, just about the time that I my career in broadcasting had begun.

While it looked like an evening from a werewolf movie, the thought of this moon directly corresponded to my memory in that book called 'The Eternity Brigade' where the main and supporting characters found themselves fighting for their country suddenly on the moon, when their last recollections were fighting in China; after volunteering for a Government experiment which first began during the Vietnam war.

While the moon was only the second stop on a trip through eternity for the characters in 'The Eternity Brigade,' it made me stop to think about the Quantum physics of the Universe and how we are currently traveling through this time, which was 'that time' and now 'this time' and how it is culminating to: 'another time,' in the very near future, June 15th, 2010 ... without even being frozen through the benefits of Cryogenics, that Stephen made me first aware of; way back then.

To me, it is absolutely fascinating to even believe it possible to finally catch up with Stephen, who wrote this wonderful masterpiece that; hasn't been given the accolades it most certainly deserves in the mainstream publishing industry, much less the movie medium. But, to find out that Stephen is also connected to family members who have affected the careers of major stars in the music industry such as, Elvis, Dee Dee Sharp, Brenda Lee and then to find out that Stephen is married to Mary Mason, who has worked for years with Nick Gravenities: a MAJOR blues artist who has worked with other greats like Janice Joplin, Muddy Waters, Huey Lewis & the News, Maria Muldaur and other greats in the music industry.

I know I have fallen behind in my writings and efforts for JST KLSX, but in trying to get across the point in a very succinct way, it's simply this ... I have to believe that ... it is all coming together in this space and time and; this special with Stephen Goldin featuring Mary Mason and Nick Gravenities will be another interesting music special, that will reverberate throughout the ethros. And, if you do get a chance to explore some great works of art from an under appreciated writer, or the mind boggling piece of science fiction that is turning into a reality, visit http://www.stephengoldin.com/ and find out why I believe that 'The Eternity Brigade' has inspired my conscious thought process of actually believing that it is possible that "What Man's Mind Can think of, Man Can DO!"

I feel that in crossing paths with Stephen is the same scenario that I wrote about when I crossed paths with Rick Derringer back in 1965 when 'The McCoys' released "Hang on Sloopy" but finally caught up with him in this REALM more than a year ago. Do you understand what I mean, by this thought process? It's the same as when I first met YOU!

To me; it's fascinating! Who is doing this? I am now rushing to make the deadline for 'The Stephen Goldin Special' and somehow believe and know - it's going to happen on June 15th, 2010 ... but like everything else, it seems like it's almost last minute and something else is needing to be done while I'm doing that bit of juggling.

I'm of the opinion that we do need a couple more clowns in this circus and promising ringmaster, because I'm currently on the high wire ... and I'm looking for the net - and don't see one! Gotta keep on 'Searchin' (The Coasters). I hope you will be tuned in as always to JST KLSX - and will be listening for the special. See Ya on the Radio. Mason.
