Watergate began in Beverly Hills, CA in 1971
The Watergate break-in on June 17, 1972 was only one small piece of a much larger puzzle. That puzzle was created out of jig saw pieces composed of corruption from the bottom to the top of the Nixon Administration. If you weren't corrupt, or corruptible, you would not become a piece of that puzzle. It reached the surface long enough to be discovered at the office of Dr. Lewis Fielding, M.D. He was the psychiatrist for Dr. Daniel Ellsberg, Ph. D. who was attempting to expose the true facts about the United States involvement in Vietnam. Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon used the same team of criminals to try to prevent that. The Watergate pieces of the puzzle began in Beverly Hills, CA in late August, and early September, 1971. Tom stopped along the route of this trail of crimes to reach back and touch history.

    The Police had one task. To protect the Assassin for 15 seconds (something they did not accomplish for JFK two days earlier) while he was being transferred to the Armor vehicle and then transferred to the Jail. But somehow Ruby was just lucky to show up at the very minute of the transfer and no one recognized him, not even Officer Croy who was standing right next to him in the garage. And with 70 cops in the garage Ruby simply jumped out of the crowd and shot him and killed him with one bullet. Nothing suspicious about that, right?

    I remember meeting Ruby Nash in 2008 at The Induction Ceremony for The Vocal Group Hall Of Fame. We were inducted into The Hall Of Fame. I was one of the "Founding" Members of The "Original" Duprees. We walked around together, arm in arm, backstage at The Chevrolet Center in Youngstown, Ohio. It was as though we were old friends. She was a charming, talented, lady. At the time she was no longer singing, I encouraged her to get back into the business again. We both recorded hit records but getting to meet Ruby always made me feel special.

    I love this interview. Now i have learned about various singing artists and their personal lives. His experiences with Elvis invited Johnny and Joe at Graceland he and Johnny dine with Elvis. Paul Anka, Buddy Holley. Joe spoke about Johnny's death, and the deepest part of him was torn apart. It is very interesting how they all didn't live far from each other. Harlem is rich in historical facts, and many great things came from Harlem.

    I rented a room in Dave Stevens home in Chula Vista, CA. back around 1985. I got I few bass tips from Dave. He was a bass player for the Cascades. Interesting to learn that John with the band recorded the demo of the song at Dave's Mom home. I stayed with Dave for about 3 years. I was 24 years old at the time.

    What a pleasure to see an interview with Joe and Steve. I was 9 years old in ‘65, but the Lovin Spoonful had such an impact on me. I love John Sebastian’s lyric, and Joe’s song Old Folks inspired me to want to write. I loved the Beatles, yet the lyrics to the Lovin Spoonful’s songs were more personal to me, and many of their songs I associate deeply with my childhood memories learning about life, people and love. I still listen to their music regularly. I also remember being so impressed by their music when they started working with more orchestration, it felt very natural and not over produced. Great band, great vibe, and I admit I did get one of those striped shirts like they wore!

    I am curious to know if Frazier was threatened by the Dallas Police or others concerning the British Enfield rifle that was found on the roof of the TSBD. Frazier owned that exact brand rifle. I'm not saying it was his rifle just that the an Enfield rifle was found on the roof that day. It's been verified. Mauser and Carcano found on the 6th floor. The report of this is that the Dallas Police use to frame suspects and DA Wade practice this often. Dallas District Attorney Wade had hundreds of his cases overturned because of it. Frazier was forced into the story of Oswald and the curtain rods or be charged himself with the murder of JFK. Loading dock foreman and others saw Oswald that morning entering the building empty handed. If anyone has the chance to ask the question please do.

    I'm 73 years old and went to W. H. Adamson high school. A friend of mine, Doug Janes rented the room when he was discharged from the Marines. I went by to visit, and he told me its history. Looking at the room brings back a lot of memories because it appears almost unchanged. My friend Doug passed away oct 2014, and the room brought back memories of my old friend. I think the year was 1971 when he lived there. Most all the places I ever lived at in Oak Cliff have been torn down, good to see one still standing.
