Craig & Cindy
"Tellerds on Tour"

New Orleans June 2007 fulfilling one of Craig's musical fantasies.
As a lover and historical buff of early rhythm & blues, Craig read a book
named "Blue Monday" about Fats Domino and the significance of New Orleans
to early R&B and rock and roll and immediately contacted the author to
tell him what a fantastic book it was and that it inspired him to visit New Orleans
and the historical landmarks such as J&M Recording Studio, Dew Drop Inn and Club Desire.
Next thing you know the author, Rick Coleman, and Craig became friends and
Rick himself gave the Tellerd family an exclusive tour.  Pictured here is
Craig, Carly & Alexis along with Rick Coleman (in the hat) and the legendary
Cosimo Matassa, who owned J&M Recording Studio and was the recording engineer
and producer for all the hits of Fats Domino as well as others such as Little Richard,
Ray Charles, Roy Brown, Dr. John, Dave Bartholomew and countless others.  Craig
highly recommends the book, Blue Monday, and is forever grateful to Rick for
showing him and his family some awesome sights and for arranging the
meeting with Cosimo (who by the way deserves to be in the Rock n Roll Hall of Fame).
