When Fairfield Glade artist John Simms asked his wife Clintina, who is the development director of the Avalon Center for Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault, what she wanted for her birthday, she said she would like a birthday party for The Avalon Center, which is celebrating its 20th year of existence.
All this year, The Avalon Center for Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault will be celebrating their 20th birthday with benefits and events throughout the year.
The Avalon Center has outgrown its space and desperately needs more room to accommodate its shelter for abused women and children, its offices where many services are provided for victims of domestic and sexual violence, and its storage center for donated goods.

Although earlier albums had been light contemporary and sometimes bordered on southern gospel quartet, their later sounds have encompassed a much stronger pop feel.
AVB and acapella music master Keith Lancaster carry a much fuller sound than their four man counterpart and tend to be more dramatic and soulful in their approach.
However, they are reminiscent of the lighter sounds of secular groups like En Vogue or Boys 2 Men (except that this band has male and females in it).

 CATALOG: ORIGINAL JAZZ CLASSICS 2   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
Like several other prominent jazz producers of the Fifties, Bob Weinstock started out as a traditional jazz fan but soon found himself standing at the cutting edge of modern jazz.
He launched his own label--originally called New Jazz, soon renamed Prestige--in 1949 and, during the next decade, recorded such giants as Gene Ammons, Sonny Stitt, Miles Davis, Sonny Rollins, Eric Dolphy, Thelonious Monk, the Modern Jazz Quartet, and John Coltrane, often in informal "blowing" sessions.
Though Prestige became the leading purveyor of what is now known as acid jazz with its 1960s recordings of Jack McDuff, Charles Earland, and others, this compilation concentrates on the iconic Fifties work of Miles, Monk & Co., as well as vocal hits by King Pleasure, Annie Ross, and Etta Jones.
