What We Believe
- There is one God—the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- The Old Testament and the New Testament Scriptures, given by plenary inspiration, contain all truth necessary to faith and Christian living.
- Humans are born with a fallen nature and are, therefore, continually inclined to evil.
- The finally impenitent are hopelessly and eternally lost.
- The atonement through Jesus Christ is for the whole human race, and whosoever repents and believes in the Lord Jesus Christ is justified and regenerated and saved from the dominion of sin.
- Believers are to be sanctified wholly, subsequent to regeneration, through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
- The Holy Spirit bears witness to the new birth and also to the entire sanctification of believers.
- Our Lord will return, the dead will be raised and the final judgment will take place.

Music Charts Magazine Celebrity Interview with James Marvell of “The Skopes”, “Surprise”, the mega hit rock band “Mercy” & the original country music outlaws – “The Country Cavaleers”.
In 1969 James Marvell was in the group Mercy and sitting at #2 on Billboard’s Top 10 music charts and # 1 on Cash Box’s Top 10 music charts with The Beatles, Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra with the “Mercy” million selling Warner Brother’s smash hit, “Love Can Make You Happy.”
In 1969 The Beatles were at number 1 on the music charts with the song “Get Back” and Mercy
was at number 2 on the music charts with the song “Love Can Make You Happy”.
Elvis Presley was at number 5 on the charts with “In The Ghetto” and Frank Sinatra was at number 7 on the charts with his signature song, “My Way.”
It was the only time that those three pop legends shared the top 10 simultaneously. James Marvell still can’t believe that he was part of this music time in history. Marvell says “not only did Jack Sigler write a great song then, he has written many potential hits for this new millenium!”.
“Love (Can Make You Happy)” was originally recorded on the small Tampa, Florida based Sundi record label, at which time it was also featured in the movie, Fireball Jungle. The B-side of the Sundi single was entitled “Fireball”.
MERCY’s first album spun off two more hits – “Forever” and
another Jack Sigler original – “Hello Baby”. Both hits broke
into the national charts and stayed in the top 100 across the
country. MERCY toured the U. S. and Canada appearing with other great
bands like Gary Pucket and the Union Gap, The Turtles, The
Association, The Cowsills, The Box Tops, The Rascals, The
Mama’s and Papa’s The Four Seasons, Tommy James and The
Shondells along with many others.
MERCY’s national television appearances include The Mike
Douglas Show – The National March of Dimes Telethon (with
Gary Collins and Mary Ann Mobley) plus interviews on Dick Clark’s American Bandstand.

because there are no rules. The band and crew snuck in and set-up to ambush the unsuspecting crowd coming out of the CMT Awards. We don’t have a clue what we’re doing, but we’re having fun and working overtime to come up with unorthodox ways to get music to people who simply like music. I hope that those of you who rambled into the line of fire had a good time!”

Joey Covington of Jefferson Airplane
Joseph “Joey” Edward Covington (June 27, 1945, East Conemaugh, Pennsylvania – June 4, 2013, Palm Springs, California)was an American drummer, best known for his involvements with Hot Tuna and Jefferson Airplane.
A self-taught drummer since the age of 10, Covington (also known in his childhood as Joey Michno) helped found Blues-rock group Hot Tuna in 1969, alongside Jefferson Airplane members Jack Casady and Jorma Kaukonen, while the latter band was still in its beginnings.
However, the recordings he did for Tuna were unreleased and he eventually rejoined Casady and Kaukonen at the Airplane and featured on three studio albums, the first being Volunteers, as he replaced Spencer Dryden midway through the recording process. He wrote and sang the last hit for Jefferson Airplane, 1971’s “Pretty As You Feel”, featured on the Bark album.
Covington was well-known around the Palm Springs area as a talented musician who delighted his audience by playing free gigs whenever possible. His last performance was for a Marilyn Monroe celebration in Palm Springs June 1, 2013. Covington thrilled his audience and signed autographs following the performance.

– Song for the month of June 2013:
Otis Redding – “(Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay”
Listen to Otis Redding’s “(Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay” song here:
Otis Ray Redding, Jr. (September 9, 1941 – December 10, 1967) was an American singer and songwriter, record producer, arranger and talent scout. He is considered one of the greatest singers in popular music and a major artist in soul music and rhythm and blues. His singing style has been influential among the soul artists of 1960s and helped exemplify the Stax Sound. After appearing at the 1967 Monterey Pop Festival, he wrote and recorded “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” with Steve Cropper.
“(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” was released in January 1968 and became Redding’s only single to reach number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and R&B charts after his death in a plane crash. Otis Redding’s “(Sittin’ On) The Dock of the Bay” was also a #1 single on the “Soul Hits” chart at Cash Box Magazine for one week beginning on March 2, 1968 and was replaced March 9th by Aretha Franklin’s song “Think” which remained the number one single on Cashbox’s Soul Hits chart for four continuing weeks after. Redding also was the first posthumous number-one single in US chart history. It sold approximately four million copies worldwide and received more than eight million airplays. The album The Dock of the Bay was the first posthumous album to also reach the #1 top spot on the UK Albums Chart.
Otis Redding has been called the “King of Soul”, an honorific also given to Brown and Cooke.He remains one of the genre’s most recognized artists. His lean and powerful style exemplified the Stax Sound, and gave Stax a new identity; he was said to be its “heart and soul”, while artists such as Al Jackson, Dunn and Cropper helped to expand its structure.
Otis Redding favored short and simple lyrics; when asked whether he intended to cover Dylan’s “Just Like a Woman”, he responded that the lyrics contained “too much text”.Furthermore, he stated in an interview:
- “Basically, I like any music that remains simple and I feel this is the formula that makes ‘soul music’ successful. When any music form becomes cluttered and/or complicated you lose the average listener’s ear. There is nothing more beautiful than a simple blues tune. There is beauty in simplicity whether you are talking about architecture, art or music.”
