From the Background to the ForeFront-a conversation with John Stanley

Great Day and Grand Risings my Tea Sippers and Crumpet Dunkers!!  IT'S OUR ANNIVERSARY!!  YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!  Thank you for believing and Rocking with me for 11 strong years!!  It's hard to believe that 11 years have gone by so quickly, but I am very grateful to all of you across the world for your LOVE and SUPPORT!!

To kick off our 11th Season, I am blessed to bring in someone who helped hoist me on the stage back in 2003 when I was blessed to get up on stage and sing with my entertainment mother, Ms. Patti LaBelle!!  Since that time, he has been doing his thang in the world of music and when he was once one of the backing vocalists for not only Patti LaBelle, but many others, he was the assistant accompanyist for the organization.  When Bud Ellison made his transition, my guest was then promoted to Music Director for the Patti LaBelle organization and his world changed yet again!!  I am talking about none other than Mr. John Stanley

In addition to that, he released his Solo project, "Alright" where he gave his praise unto The Creator and stayed true to his roots!!    Today, we are going to dig deep into his catalog of memories and find out how he has sustained himself in this oh so lovely, but often hectic and timultuous business we call SHOW!

So, grab your favorite crumpets, your gal pals, your fly guys and your good judies because when I say this is going to be a HOT POT of Tea for your nerves, I mean just THAT!!
