CD review from The Austin Daze: Kenny Selcer – Don’t Forget About Me: A total blend of folk, Americana and contemporary sounds. Using instruments as varied as the glockenspiel and lap percussion to the commonplace guitar and drums the production is unconventional and it’s sound reflects that. Selcer produces well-crafted songs with a variety of deliveries that makes the album an unexpected listening experience. (review web page)  My
tunes from my CD are getting airplay around the country. Over 54 Check this out: Kenny's

Take care. Kenny - Thank You for reading, listening, coming to gigs, emailing me, supporting my music. I appreciate it all. Some random quotes. Learn to get in touch with the silence within yourself and know that everything in this life has a purpose. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross Nothing is at last sacred but the integrity of your own mind. Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803 - 1882) Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such. Henry Miller (1891 - 1980) The face is the mirror of the mind, and eyes without speaking confess the secrets of the heart. [ Saint Jerome (374 AD - 419 AD) Never do anything when you are in a temper, for you will do everything wrong. Baltasar Gracian One man practicing sportsmanship is better than a hundred teaching it. Knute Rockne (1888 - 1931) The greatest challenge to any thinker is stating the problem in a way that will allow a solution. Bertrand Russell (1872 - 1970) Sharing food with another human being is an intimate act that should not be indulged in lightly. M. F. K. Fisher Whenever you find that you are on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect. Mark Twain (1835 - 1910) Tact is the knack of making a point without making an enemy. Isaac Newton (1642 - 1727) Every man is the builder of a temple called his body. Henry David Thoreau (1817 - 1862) The new electronic interdependence recreates the world in the image of a global village. Marshall McLuhan (1911 - 1980), "Gutenberg Galaxy", 1962 People are about as happy as they make up their minds to be. Abraham Lincoln (1809 - 1865) Few men during their lifetime come anywhere near exhausting the resources dwelling within them. There are deep wells of strength that are never used. Richard Byrd In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends. Martin Luther King, Jr. They are so damn 'intellectual' and rotten that I can't stand them anymore....I [would] rather sit on the floor in the market of Toluca and sell tortillas, than have anything to do with those 'artistic' bitches of Paris. Frida Kahlo (1907 - 1954), (on Andre Breton and the European surrealists) letter to Nickolas Muray, 02-16-1939 Change does not change tradition. It strengthens it. Change is a challenge and an opportunity, not a threat. Prince Philip of England This sheaf of paper with gaudy cover glued to the spine is not the book. The book is not an object on the table, it is an event in the readers mind.... The book, therefore is only finished when someone reads it. Lois McMaster Bujold, Dreamweaver's Dilemma, essay "The Unsung Collaborator" I know nothing except the fact of my ignorance. Socrates (469 BC - 399 BC), from Diogenes Laertius, Lives of Eminent Philosophers Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary. Steve Jobs (1955 - 2011) The future is no place to place your better days. Dave Matthews It is dreams that will survive, for a dream is immortal. Marion Zimmer Bradley, Lady of Avalon A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government. Edward Abbey (1927 - 1989) The man least dependent upon the morrow goes to meet the morrow most cheerfully. [ Epicurus (341 BC - 270 BC), 300 B.C. Never try to reason the prejudice out of a man. It was not reasoned into him, and cannot be reasoned out. Sydney Smith (1771 - 1845) That's all folks. Kenny Feet  Kenny Selcer 781-863-2092 www.kennyselcer.com |
