“Makin’ It A Memory”

John Hollis

“I just found this. It was back in 2008 when I wrote, and recorded this song. I was doing a radio show with my now business partner (RIR) John Hollis. We were talking, and he was telling me his message before the show of his journey though his active addiction.

As I’ve got to know John, and Lori over the past years, got the story of their life in John’s active addiction. Not really knowing Lori Sullivan at that time. I kinda only knew her from what John had told me, I wrote the second half of the song about a women. Now years later I see God had the pen, because now after knowing Lori, and their story together. WOW how it all rings true.. Now that I know their past, and hear all the stories from that black time in life. I love you both, this is for Lori and John”. “Makin’ It A Memory”

Additionally, he helped co-write several songs, including the hits “Chip Away the Stone” (1978), “Lightning Strikes” (1982), “Amazing” (1993), and “Pink” (1997), among others.

Supa co-wrote most of the songs on Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora’s second solo album Undiscovered Soul.

Mark Stein- Mark is the lead vocalist, keyboardist, composer, and arranger of Vanilla Fudge. Mark first founded Vanilla Fudge in 1966 at the age of 18 with members Tim Bogert, Vinny Martell, and Carmine Appice. In the short time they were together the band enjoyed their first giant success with their first Atco album release self-entitled Vanilla Fudge The first album was a groundbreaking work since it was the first album to reach the top ten on Billboard’s charts without a hit single. The legendary rock arrangement of You Keep Me Hangin’ On became the band’s first hit single nearly two years after the release of the first album.

During the 1960′s the Fudge were one of rock’s most exciting, high-energy touring bands, setting the stage for the likes of Jimmy Hendrix, Deep Purple, and even Led Zeppelin. Through a total of five albums and the tireless touring, the legendary Vanilla Fudge influenced artists around the world with their inspired performances and unique musical interpretations. Bands like Yes, The Who, Deep Purple, and many others have credited Vanilla Fudge with having a profound effect on their music, and the overall musical renaissance of the late ’60s. The band’s influence is still felt even today.

Mark’s new book “You Keep Me Hangin’ On”. MORE THAN A BIOGRAPHY, or a tell-all, You Keep Me Hangin’ On is a cultural and social history, music criticism, and the story of generational change. Enriched by first-hand perspective of Mark Stein of Vanilla Fudge, the reader will be transported into scenes and conversations with some of Rock’s most celebrated innovators. (more…)
