The Yesterday's Memories Music Shop
Eugene Tompkins (he's sung with the Limelighters, the Mellows, and the Morrisania
Revue) has a music store in Atlanta, Georgia. Aside from Gene being one of the nicest people on
the planet, there's something about the store's name that I like.
You can e-mail him at:
Eugene's mailbox.

Christine Vitale hosts the Group Harmony Alley, at Fairleigh Dickenson. It can be heard over
