One of the best websites I’ve seen in a long time! I love the music here and the pictures are really interesting. How can I get a copy of this music? I’m adding this to my favorites so I can see this all the time! Great Job Renny J!!!
What’s up Renny,
Just checked out the website because a friend told me she saw my picture on line. I loved the pictures!!! Clarence and Royal bought back some memories but you and Jeff at Jones beach is a classic!!! Looking forward to viewing your next set of pictures!!!

Your youngest son is absolutely gorgeous! Glad to see that you are still doing your music
Thanks for all the wonderful photos… I was doing a little surfing about Arthur Lee who wrote my diary for Rosa Lee and I stumbled upon this treasure trove of images. Keep on rocking in the free world… love the Count and your Dad’s picture and the Cab Calloway BBQ shot… peace, David
Hey Renny,
I don’t know if you remember me, but I used to live in Lindsey too. I googled Lindsey Park and your site came up. At first I said “He looks familar, someone I must have grown up with.” Then when I checked out the photos of all the people from the neighborhood. WOW memeories. I lived in Bldg 4 and I was best friends with Cherice. Only about a week ago, I was telling someone about Jeff making fun of my name. When I would remind him that it had an “A” on the end. He would throw it on way after he would say “Roxane… Auh! It’s good to hear that your doing well, your brother and all those other “Players” from Lindsey. lol. I often wondered what happened to all the Lindsey Park folk. By the way, did you go to day camp with Mrs. Barbara or were you just hanging out playing handball? Take care and much love. Roxana Prince Scott Yeh, I have 5 kids!
This website seems to receive a large amount of visitors. How do you advertise it? Is it the incredible music you put out? The music gives a nice unique spin on different genres. I guess having some great music is the most important thing.
i think you have a nice page here… today was my first time coming here.. i just happened to discover it performing a google search. anyway, great post.. i’ll be bookmarking this page for certain.
Never doubt that you can change history. You already have.
I really like your style of music! Superb! I don’t read music or anything, so when I produce, I go basically by ear. Thanks for everythinging : D.
Hey Renny:
I’m visiting my sis’ here in CA (Cookie) and just happened to see your name and view your site…small world…brought back a million happy Lindsay memories…and friends…Channing, Jeffrey, Royal, Big Derek and others…Hope to see you soon…
Ken
