ADKINS FAMILY MUSIC
About Jack Home Itinerary
     

     



These guys would get together every year or so and do some jammin'.
Sometimes it would be in the basement, in the attic or sometimes in
the living room. Jack is on the left, Craig in front and
Norvel (Jack/Dad)
is upper right. Occasionally we would do some recording and got some
damn good tracks. These tracks will be available for ordering soon.
We will keep you posted. Jack still plays professionally in the Tampa Bay
Florida area. Craig is active in recording, writing and exploring more and
more into the use of the guitar. Norvel (Nickname Jack) played several
instruments when he was younger and then stopped to help raise six kids.
Then as Craig and Jack became musicians he retired and got back into music.
His Dad, Golden George Adkins, was a singer and musician. We all got it
honestly. We lost Dad in February 1999.

good fun. Loved music. Played Acoustic Guitar Lead and Rhythm
