Alright now and all together folks, let us celebrate troll music's
greatest 35 years of Total Mass Retain!!!! From And You and I to I and
I ,I must say yes yes yes you can can can graduate from the school of
rock and make the good stuff last for years. What I am trying to get
across hear is that the positive will always persevere over the
negative. So go out and glean the facts, buy lots of your favorite
groups music-Zuma to Alphaville. Know the Doctor is in wandering around
the edges of things with his Orange Sunshine hat contemplating the
welding of Halcyon on the city streets, and other wunders of the wurld.
So crack me open and see what makes the man tick tock, tick
tock........... Rock 10-13-03

Paul Lovett-
A man of pure heart. His belief in the unbelievable and passion for music and the artists he worked with were unbounding. He now has the distinct pleasure to swap stories and trade jibes with Miles, Jimi, John, George, Jim, Warren, and Elvis. Rock on Paul Lovett, the world is a better place having had you in it. May his family endure and share in the comfort that Paul is in a better place. Although, I hadn't spoken to him in some time, I'll always treasure his spirit and committment to his beliefs.

he made it possible for a great record to be made, created an open venue and good vibe for the task at hand, encouraged and egged on, enjoyed, enthused and supported - completely lending over his love of the sport and passion for the play.

thanks pl

Paul was a great guy...a really nice person. He had a different way of seeing the world and that's why he appreciated my artwork. You don't run into many souls like him on this earth....I feel fortunate to have know him for the time I did and I'm saddened by his departure.

Thank you Tom, Mike and Jeff for posting, and thank you Michael for setting up this board and the rest of the memorial page. I encourage all of you who knew Paul to add to this board, and to email me (matt@hts.us) pictures of Paul that we can add to the pictures page. I also hope to see you in McCrory Saturday (see http://www.htsrecordings.com for times and places.

Also please check the site in the coming weeks as we plan and stage a musical celebration of Paul's life and work. If you're a musician who worked with Paul and would like to participate, please contact me.

The first message on this board is from Paul. It is his last "rave" and was written Monday morning, October 13. After Michael revamped the HTS site in early 2002, Paul started writing periodic short takes on some of the things that were on his mind. He wrote about a dozen that were posted on the site. You can read them at http://www.htsrecordings.com/rave.html.

Paul, my business partner, my music guru, my bandmate, my running buddy, my friend: I'm grateful to have known you for so long. Thanks for all the great times and wise counsel. I miss you.
