Thanks god main man Chuggy Carter Leslie J. Carter came out again to play our 2023 NAMM Show Kickoff concert - Chuggy's been playing on my band faithfully since August of 1989, he knows my music in his sleep and always has my back! Congas and Percussion Master! I have always been a fan of Chuggy Carter's playing, we finally got to start working together when I got a 5-nighter at NY's premier live music restaurant club Mikell's on Colombus Avenue & 97th Street - I had my 1959 Hammond B3 there, on the band then: Bernard Purdie, Alex Foster, Barry Finnerty, Chuggy and myself at the B3 - the club was full of great musicians including the late greats Hugh Masekela, Cornell Dupree 

(Cornell sat in with us) and that was the beginning of a longtime great association and besides being one of the best congueros, Chuggy is a great friend above and beyond the call of duty on a gig! Chuggy plays GON BOPS instuments for some years now - but he can make the groove on everything and anything including a chair or even with just his hands - thank you Chuggy!! - Jon Hammond - Jon Hammond Band - Jon Hammond Organ Group

Jon: very special friend Chuck Surack, we tried to get him to sit in with my band on tenor saxophone  for 2023 NAMM Show Kickoff, but of course Chuck too busy with constant meetings - founder of Sweetwater folks!
#sweetwater #sweetwatermusicalinstruments #ChuckSurack 
"Chuck Surack is an American entrepreneur, businessman, philanthropist, and musician, best known as the founder of Sweetwater Sound, a leading retailer of musical instruments and professional audio equipment.
Surack was born in Waverly, Ohio, his family later relocating to Fort Wayne, Indiana. Surack was active in the Boy Scouts,[3] and attended Wayne High School, where he played saxophone in the school's marching band. Following high school, Surack toured with a band as a saxophone player and keyboardist.[4] In 1979 Surack decided to stop touring, and returned to his hometown of Fort Wayne, where he has continued to work as a musician to the present day, playing saxophone and keyboard as part of two bands, Prime Time[5] and the Sweetwater All Stars.[6] Upon settling back in Fort Wayne in 1979, Surack created a mobile 4-track recording studio within his Volkswagen Bus.
