About Me
- Armen
- I've had an interesting life so far. At age 11 I found out that the Turkish word chakmak translates to Flintstone in English. Lucky me! I've played in many bands, one of them was nominated for a Grammy (Shadowfax), and another that appeared on the Tonight Show fronted by Oscar De La Hoya, the boxer (yeah, he had a band for two weeks). I've played in biker bars and watched a biker bust through the doors on his Harley and start doing "donuts" on the dance floor! I've seen screaming matches between psychotic people in the music business over nothing important, my ex-girlfriend became a nun, experienced the death of a band mate, married a woman I met online who has a brother named Armen Chakmakjian, auctioned my soul on eBay to raise money to finish an CD, found out after golfing left-handed for 19 years that I play better right-handed, and today...today I received a phone call out of the blue from Ralph Rieckermann, the bassist for the Scorpions. He asked me to record some lounge-style piano music as a "favor" to one of HIS friends for a hundred bucks. Scorpions? Lounge? Favor? WTF? It was then that I realized THIS is a good day to start a blog.

This is so beautiful! I am at a loss for words right now.
Armen,
This tribute is spellbinding. As I watched it, I could feel the presence of Neda's soul and immediately began to feel rivers of chills running throughout my body's meridians.
You have found a calling with this format and I encourage you to continue to use your musical and artistic talents in this vein.
Armen:
Your music is a blessing.
Armen,
OMG that is so AWESOME what you have created will stay in the hearts and minds of humans forever.
I know it will in mine.
"There are brighter days ahead"
I hope
All the best
your pal
Jim
