If No ONe Is Listening - Words and Music by: Jimi Bertucci. - We had a very strict rule in our house, be a good listener. The communication airwaves have taken on a multitude of directions so that we can get the message across. The days of ho hum, not getting through to people, has become a Jurassic excuse catering to the lazy, complacent, I don't need to get hip with the times, gringos. Music has always been a strong force in pounding a message to even those refusing to hear it. Billboards are the large, subliminal, postcards that have you thirsting for one of those bigger than life, erotic, bossomy blondes with bright white teeth. If no one is listening then it tells me you are not being verbal enough, metaphorically speaking of course. Songs have a way of meandering and taking on a life of their own. The idea can begin with a simple thought and before you know it the concept reaches new heights. Determination has to breathe, allowing moments of freedom to pass through the dark tunnels of obscurity. Recognition of one's self-limitations is just that. The listening uncovers the doubts that cling to unresolved matters. Whether you shout or whisper and no one is listening the echo of your words will linger through time and space and eventually be heard. (read about bb gabor and jimi)
PARIS FRANCE - Salvatore Vincenzo Bertucci was born in Santa Monica, California. He began collecting shells at the age of two when he would run on the sandy beaches of Malibu. His love of skate-boarding and playing the guitar also began at a very young age in Orange County, where his pop-rocker dad owned an Italian restaurant. Turi, as he is known to family and friends, resides in San Francisco and is currently studying International Business at the American Business School in Paris. For the past few years SVB has been traveling the world with his companion camera, capturing the rhythms of the streets. His photography is pure truth, the moments captured in perfect time, like an unforgettable melody that plays continuously in your head. Salvatore explores his subject with more than his eyes. He absorbs the message of his composition, clearly defining the end results. jimib.com is proud to showcase the works of Salvatore V. Bertucci.

MALIBU CA - Mary Frampton was born in San Bernardino, California, famous for Route 66. Her father owned a small newspaper called El Sol and her mother was an accommplished sculptor. Mary began taking pictures at a very young age with a Brownie and eventually some of her photos were being used in the high school weekly paper at San Bernardino High. She believed, even then, that she would apply her talents in the changing scene of photo journalism. She would go on to College and study advertising and journalism. She started her professional photo career at the San Bernardino Sun, a newspaper that covered the Inland Empire. She would forward some of her works to the Los Angeles Times through APWire and the Times would often publish her photos. After working for a brief period in the public relations office of the Beverly Hilton Hotel, she landed a job as a writer and photographer at the Santa Monica Outlook, a trendy newspaper with opinionated stories. By this time her work was receiving great recognition by all the major papers in the Los Angeles area. She decided to approach the Times with her portfolio and, because they were already using her pictures, they did not hesitate to hire her as a full time employee. That was in 1956. During her employment with the Times she photographed Presidents, rock stars, movie stars and some memorable events that have become a staples in LA. In 1987 Mary retired from the Times but she continues to express herself with what she does best...taking pictures. Mary passed away on Dec 29th 2006. My friend will be missed.

ARIZONA - Music and photography came together on September 26th 1960 in Ottawa Canada when 50s international rock and roll star Brenda Lee came to sing for her fans. John Rowlands, a 13 year old teenager who lived in a part of Ottawa called 'Manor Park' was a big fan of the popular recording artist. With an advance on his 10 cents a week allowance, money made from his 77 drop morning paper route, and cash made from helping the local milkman he bought a ticket to the Brenda Lee Show. Sensing that it was a long shot that she might ever be his girlfriend he took along his father's camera, a single roll of film and 12 very large flash bulbs. It was likely the only way he would ever take her home. Brenda's guest appearance on the Perry Como show a week earlier and the anticipation of seeing her in person made it easier to force his way through the packed crowd to the lip of the stage.He was not disappointed as he watched and listened, loaded the bulbs one at a time and flashed his way through her show and the only 12-exposure Kodak 127 film he had. In those days the family camera might take a year to fill a single roll with images but this night was more than special.When Brenda left the stage and the house lights rose the crowd headed towards the exits. No security team, no small police force to speed you towards the door as soon as physically possible. When the show was over everyone left. Rowlands followed his peers as they headed through the seating towards the exits until he saw a sign in a hallway that would change his life. It read "Brenda Lee and the Casuals" and it was their dressing room. Without a moments thought he walked down the hall and knocked on the door not knowing what to expect...(read more) ( click on photographers pic )  n
