Hi everyone and Happy New Year! Been a little under the weather here do to a little procedure and subsequent infection. Sucks getting old and as my Dad used to say, getting old ain't for sissies! Boy was he right!
A new friend expressed some interest in my Little Feat photos from the Oriental Theater here in Milwaukee on April 27, 1977. It was an awesome show and my blog #56 on 4-15-2013 was about them and that show.
I have rescanned the photos and worked on them a bit and here ya go! New technology helps a lot but this is some old film that I could work on forever!
Enjoy another look at Lowell George. He was one of the best slide guitar players ever and a great writer. I have heard that he taught Bonnie Raitt how to play slide guitar.
Thanks,
Rich Zimmermann

We are taking a little break for the holidays and would like to wish all of you a happy holiday season!
Here is a photo of a Christmas tree though the roof of a house like Sparky would do in National Lampoons Christmas Vacation!! Love it and it's our favorite movie that we watch every year!
The other photos are of me at work at the races at Elkhart Lake and then a little winter scene for Christmas.
Happy Holidays!
Thanks,
Rich Zimmermann

Winter is in the state of Wisconsin, finally! We have snow and the cold all at once it seems. It's really beautiful and the snow is very fluffy. It's easy to shovel. The snowblower is out for repair, but it worked great when I tested it a month ago! Hopefully we will get it back soon, more snow on the way.
Well, I am scanning the 2003 race at Road America lately and for a few more weeks that is what we will be looking at. The cars were so great then. They had so much horsepower and they looked really nice.
These were the days with different engine and chassis manufacturers. It was during the years when teams put blankets over the car wings, both front and rear, to hide their secrets for more speed.
Enjoy a look at Tiago Monteiro again, plus Rudolfo Lavin, Mario Haberfeld, Ryan Hunter Reay and Oriol Servia.
Time to keep working on our basement project. We finished the painting last week and I finished the floor tiles yesterday on a day off of work! Now it's time for the cove molding and then it's about done!!!!!
Have a great week. Don't shovel too much and stay warm.
Thanks,
Rich Zimmermann
P.S. Thanks to everyone who bought one of my Rich Zimmermann Photography rock'n roll calendars! Sold out early this year!
