Ozzie Trax (Tony Keik)

[TonyL]

Does anyone know what has happened to Ozzie Trax, every time I try to access Tony's site via www.turningpointcd.com I get the message "Domain maybe for sale"?

I have been trying to contact Tony Kiek for a week now but no replies.

I even tried joining the website Sydney Shadows but I cant get my registration approved.

Hopefully someone will have some info.

When I looked at Tony's Profile at the Sydney Shadows Music website I got this:

Also, I couldn't find any Shadows related material at www.turningpointcd.com

Doesn't look very promising. I do hope Tony is okay.

Hi Tony and Alan,

Tony Kiek's Ozzie Trax website expired and last time I spoke with him he was probably not going to resurrect it.

You can still access the samples and demos at
app.box.com/s/adb5931a2ba7fdd59943

and I'm sure he will supply BT's if you email tonykiekAThotmail.com (replace AT with @)

Alan, I expect to speak with Tony tomorrow and will mention your difficulty.

cheers
George

Hi George
Thanks for that I wanted Tony to do a Backing Track for me
If he is still doing them.

Hi Alan,
I have alerted Tony to your plight ... he is not keen on doing custom tracks these days. Anyone who does them will agree they take a lot of time and effort to do properly. However, it may depend on whether he already has a "skeleton" track of what you want.

Hi Istvan,
Tony mentioned his fond memories of your meeting and that you are the famous Istvan mentioned in our "2008 UK World Tour"

Regards
George

Hi everyone from "down under",

No, I'm not dead yet, just still kicking a bit, albeit a bit slower, as are many of us Shads tragics these days. Just recently qualified for my over 70's ski pass, so with some good snowfalls this week I'm ready again to bolt on the planks and hit the piste (oops a typo, please read as "p*ssed").

Thanks for the hundreds of get well cards, emails and phone calls ... my orthopedic specialist is very grateful in that you have all encouraged me to get up and get skiing again to support him financially, as his Ferrari needs new tyres.

My Ozzie Trax website has expired, it's dead and buried, however you can still access my BT catalog, BT samples and demos at

app.box.com/s/adb5931a2ba7fdd59943

I have over 2,000 backing tracks available, not all of them are shown in my catalog because it's too hard to manage so many, but I keep a huge archive on my HD. Not just Shadows, but Ventures, Beach Boys, Beatles, Buddy Holly, Elvis, Lulu, Glen Campbell, John Barry, Mike Batt, Simon & Garfunkel, Diana ***, Olivia NJ, Bread, Gerry & Pacemakers, musicals (e.e. Cats, Phantom, WoW) etc. etc. Just email me with your request as I can probably supply BT's for just about anything.

The only thing I don't do much these days is to make bespoke backing tracks (although I could be tempted if sufficient grease is applied to the palm).

Cheers,
Tony Kiek
