The entire album was recorded, mixed, and mastered by Paul Orofino at Millbrook Sound Studios, Millbrook, NY.

Thrown Alive was the first band up they were followed by Rhetoric, Johnny B. and The Road Dogs, and The Keep Coming Back Band.
We at Rockers In Recovery were lucky enough to have some very special artists such as Ricky Byrd formerly of Joan Jett and The Blackhearts, long time Aerosmith friend Richie Supa, and Kasim Sulton of Todd Rundgren who performed as our last band of the night. Their performance was outstanding!! Everyone in the crowd was singing along and enjoying the moment.
I was able to meet all of the bands. They were all pleased with the turn out and they were having a blast giving back what was freely given to them RECOVERY from addiction.

Have you ever considered why turbulent times happen?
What might the Soul’s reason be for these amazing turbulent times?
What might we learn if we were to embrace them rather than shy away?
In this engaging show, you will be presented with one man’s experience in understanding. Through this experiencing you just might begin to see the turbulent times in your life much differently. When we embrace these times, we also embrace our own evolution and growth at the soul level. And isn’t that what the earth experience is all about…evolution and growth without pain and suffering?
In this show, The Angelic Realm, Barbara’s guest Michael Sawaya, and Barbara herself will address the impact of ‘going with the flow’ of turbulent times; the information in these turbulent events; and how best to optimize the bumps and bruises that may occur along the way.
Barbara’s guest, Michael Sawaya, might be considered the most unlikely of individuals to be presenting this topic from a spiritual perspective. Michael, author of the recently launched book Turbulence in the River, Restoring your Spiritual Birthright as shared by his Guide Aatnan, is a veteran courtroom lawyer for thirty-five years, heading his own highly respected Denver, Colorado law firm. His sharing of what he has learned from Guide Aatnan is amazing, insightful and impactive for each of us in everyday living.
At the Creating Café, Barbara Joye, The Shift Guru, discusses societal perceptions that you may want to consider shifting. If you have ever wondered why your life is as it is; if you have ever desired anything different in your life and wondered how to create such a difference; if you are simply an individual with an open mind and a questioning nature, you will want to begin this series and follow the shifts that occur in your life as you begin to consciously create your own life.
Barbara Joye is The Shift Guru. Her focus is assisting individual like you to discover and shift their limiting perspectives and beliefs on life, so they may create the life of their dreams.

Christine Ohlman Sunday Night June 5th at 7:00PM EST will be our guest on Rocker In Recovery. She’s the current, long-time vocalist with the Saturday Night Live Band.
We will be talking about Christine’s new CD “The DEEP END” and up her coming appearance at the 12 Step Music Fest.
Christine Ohlman is scheduled to play The 4th Annual 12 Step Music Fest which is a campout for ALL 12 step fellowships. It will be held November 3-6, 2011 at Sugarloaf Key (mile marker 20) KOA Campground in the Florida Keys. The entire campground will be closed to the public.
The heart of Christine Ohlman has belonged to rock n’ roll from just about the moment she could walk and talk. By the time she traveled from Boston to New York on an overnight train to make her first record at the age of 16, writing the “B” side on the way to the studio, she was already a veteran of the local coffeehouse circuit around New Haven, Connecticut.
“The first guy who ever signed me flew down from New York City to hear the band; he signed us the same day,” she says. “We were in the studio practically before we knew what hit us recording a version of Al Kooper’s ‘Wake Me, Shake Me.’ The next thing we knew, we were on the charts and I was in heaven!”
Christine was a founding member of The Scratch Band, legendary throughout the Northeast for their incendiary and eclectic live shows, and her stark, piano-accompanied version of Dusty Springfield’s “I Only Want To Be With You” from their first LP was a turntable hit in the U.K. Beginning in September 1991, a portion of The Scratch Band reunited in the studios of NBC’s Saturday Night Live with Christine joining guitarist/vocalist/musical director G.E. Smith and bassist Paul Ossola, both former Scratch Band members, in the SNL band. At one point, the 11-member group, featuring in its repertoire a heavy dose of Christine’s favorite music—southern soul—took the stage (joined by Ry Cooder, Steve Cropper and Maceo Parker) as the house band for The Rhythm & Blues Foundation Pioneer Awards, a performance that was, in Ohlman’s words, “just about the biggest flat-out thrill of my life. We were doing ‘Tell Mama’ and I looked around to catch Steve Cropper’s eye only to spot Clarence Carter, who wrote the song, standing in the wings waiting to come on. I thought—well, it just doesn’t get much better than this” (although she admits that the 2003 Central Park Summerstage Tribute To Janis Joplin, where she fronted both Big Brother & The Holding Company and the Kozmic Blues Band, and the Bob Dylan 30th Anniversary Tribute Concert, where she sang with George Harrison, among others, edge out everything for sheer historical vibe).

While touring and recording with Christine Ohlman & Rebel Montez are the main focus, Ohlman has other all-star concert appearances to her credit, including the Lincoln Center “American Songbook” Series (with Sting and Lou Reed), the 2009 Obama Inaugural Gala, and Celebrate Brooklyn’s Tribute to Bill Withers (with Nona Hendryx and My Morning Jacket’s Jim James). She continues to perform with the SNL Band, appearing with Al Green on the show’s 25th Anniversary Special and in the hilarious 2010 commercial parody “Carter n’ Sons Barbeque.”
She is a sought-after studio guest vocalist, appearing on Ian Hunter’s Shrunken Heads (named one the Top 20 CDs of 2007 by the New York Daily News), Big Al Anderson’s Pawn Shop Guitars, and two CDs by esteemed Irish punk group Black 47. Labor of Love: The Music Of Nick Lowe features her vocal collaboration with Marshall Crenshaw on Lowe’s “Cruel To Be Kind.” And her commitment to the blues runs deep, as her scorching duets with the legendary Eddie Kirkland on his CD’s Where You Get Your Sugar and Lonely Street; her guest-shots with Charlie Musselwhite on his Grammy-nominated One Night In America; and her appearance on the Songs Of Willie Dixon (with Sonny Landreth & Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown) and Grammy nominee A Tribute To Howlin’ Wolf (with Taj Mahal & Lucinda Williams) give statement.

The following is our lineup for the Concert:
4:45-6:45 PM EST
Singer-songwriter-guitaristRicky Byrd’s new CD which he describes as “one part acoustic soul, one part rock n roll” -marks quite a departure from his days with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. Byrd is still rail-thin, still has the haystack of hair and a truckload of attitude, but maturity has served to deepen and expand his talent. Byrd says that the work on his latest project with producer Ray Kennedy “is a natural progression. I went back to the college of musical knowledge, listening to the songs that still, to this day, raise the hair on my arms. Digging deep, trying to find the secret ingredient, studying the craft of songwriting. Now I feel like I’ve got a pretty cool batch of my own songs and I’m ready to show them to the world.”
Billboard described Byrd’s last effort, a limited edition live CD called, with typical Byrd-esque humor, “Tough Room This World”: For many, Ricky Byrd needs no introduction. For others, a brief step back in time may be needed. After…Byrd parted ways with the Blackhearts (he) found himself collaborating with the likes of Roger Daltrey (and) Ian Hunter.
Apparently, others discovered what Jett had known all along: Byrd is one accomplished musician, singer and songwriter.” In fact, Jett and Daltrey (on his solo release “Rocks In The Head”) are among the many artists who have cut covers of Byrd’s material he’s had over 45 of his songs recorded by others — and his music has also been featured on television and in films.
Download Ricky Byrd’s new single “Broken Is A Place” to a CD and bring it with you to the The Memorial Day Weekend Free Concert Saturday May 28, 2011. Ricky will signing the downloaded CD’s at 6:30 PM EST.

Richard’s song “Stone County Wanted Man”, which appeared on the “Supa’s Jamboree” album, was recorded by Johnny Winter for his “Saints and Sinners” album.
A longtime friend of Aerosmith, he has made a number of musical contributions to the band and has offered moral support. He temporarily replaced Joe Perry when he left the band in 1979 until a replacement was found. Additionally, he helped co-write several songs, including the hits “Chip Away the Stone” (1978), “Lightning Strikes” (1982), “Amazing” (1993), and “Pink” (1997), among others.
Supa co-wrote most of the songs on Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora’s second solo album Undiscovered Soul. He also wrote the song “Misery” for the album Missundaztood by Pink, on which Aerosmith’s singer Steve Tyler and Richie Sambora collaborated and co-wrote the song “My Interpretation” from Mika‘s debut album Life in Cartoon Motion. He also co wrote Back on Earth for OZZY.
Keep Coming Back is a Hollywood, Florida, based acoustic duo consisting of Chris Waddell and Ed Walsh, both on guitar and vocals. Both Chris and Ed come out of the Jam Band scene, heavily influenced by improvisational bands like The Grateful Dead and Phish. They also share a love of American roots music ranging from folk to blues to rock, jazz, bluegrass and country.
Chris is a veteran of South Florida bands The Wheel, Campfire Nightmares and Sage and Spirit, while Ed plays in Sunflower Conspiracy, formerly known as Second Helping. They both have played all over South Florida for over ten years.
