The Origins of the San Francisco
New Living Expo
The origins of a new-age, alternative-lifestyle,
natural-products "Expo," can be traced
back to the early 1970s and the days of the Whole
Earth Catalog, a widely popular alternative mail
order catalog. The Whole Earth Company began the
first Whole Earth Expo. By 1975, Whole Earth Expo
was an established tradition in the counter culture
of the time.
Other shows arose concurrently,
with the Whole Earth Expo’s success. In 1982,
Alan Goldman began producing shows for the National
Health Federation in New York. At the same time,
Joseph Cotler had founded the Whole Life Times and
worked with Alan to produce an Expo in New York
for the Whole Life Times - the first Whole Life
Expo.
By 1983, Joseph and Alan were doing
shows in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
In 1986, Joseph sold the Los Angeles market rights
to Paul Andrews. He sold the San Francisco market
rights to Ken Kaufman in 1986. Both Ken and Paul
proceeded to expand Whole Life Expos into cities
across the country, bringing Expo’s new-age
ideas to a wider public and helping to establish
a nationwide community focused on integrative health
and cutting edge ideas.
In 1998, Justin Hilton purchased
Whole Life Expo’s nationwide rights from Ken
Kaufman. These Expos continued under Justin, and
at the end of 1999, he sold the entire company to
Ayman Sawaf.

Scott
Huckabay
Scott's unique & original
act is reminiscent of transcended masters Jimi
Hendrix, Michael Hedges, Ravi Shankar & Jimmy
Page. He is a very rhythmic player, developing
complex and energetic tribal progressions on his
alternately tuned guitar, resonant with the heart
chakra at 528 Hz. He takes the audience by surprise,
leading them through dancing and joyous celebration
into the realm of his celestial worship - the
courtyard of the Divine. Various guitar tools
assist in the journey of this vision caster from
the land of Mu and his six stringed instrument
of divination.
Scott Huckabay is rapidly gaining
widespread recognition as the "Universal
Guitarist for the Spiritual Renaissance."
He never played guitar before a motorcycle accident
left him partially paralyzed in Arizona. His life
dramatically changed after making a pact with
God/Creator the moment before he hit the highway
crashing at high speeds. He woke up from being
unconscious with a guitar mysteriously laid by
his feet on the hospital bed. As Scott touched
the instrument, music began streaming through
him. Experimenting like no guitarist would learn
or imagined, Scott hit, kicked, scraped and shook
the instrument all over to pioneer novel ways
to play the music he heard inside. Strumming,
picking, slapping and bowing the strings were
used for his accompaniment. The ensuing year,
for his own healing and musical mastery, he communed
daily with dolphins and whales in Hawaii, listening
and learning their hydro-sonic secrets. His guitar
became a physical extension, therapeutic invention,
and spiritual blessing for Scott and civilization.
