Located in the southern area of Murfreesboro, Arkansas, this land was originally a farm owned by a man named John Huddleston. He found the first diamond on the property way back in 1906. Over the years there were many attempts to turn the farm into a private mining facility, but finally in 1972 the state of Arkansas purchased the property and turned it into the Crater of Diamonds State Park.

Simple and effective vocal techniques for singers paying tribute to the great recording artists. From a master singing teacher and performance coach with more than 20 years experience.
Great singers have unique sounds, and that can make them difficult to copy. If you want to sound exactly like the singers on your iPod but don’t know how, where do you start?
