      <title>Songs that Name Drop w/ V. Shayne Frederick (Recording Artist, Composer, Educator, &amp; Performer)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>Artists have found many reasons over the years to name-drop famous people. Most commonly, it's a sign of praise, as they effectively pay tribute to someone they respect and admire. Other times, a name-drop can stoke controversy, igniting or further fueling a fight. Then there are the cases where a name-check is used for creative purposes, helping to establish a song's characters or time period. Well on today’s show we are gonna examine several instances and try to better understand how they serve the song or the artist's motives.</p><p>To help us with the topic today, we have a very special guest on the show! V. Shayne Frederick!</p><p>V. Shayne Frederick is a vocalist and pianist with performances spanning decades. He’s electrified TEDx, NPR, and stages nationally. WXPN says “His stunning baritone effortlessly soars” and Broad Street Review says he is “one of the region’s busiest and best jazz singers.” Aside from performing, his compositions are featured in commercials and film, including a documentary garnering critical acclaim in the film fest circuit. He is also a faculty member of the University of the Arts, and a current elect to the Governor’s Board of the Philadelphia Chapter of the Recording Academy. He was nominated for a Pew Center for Arts & Heritage Fellowship in 2021. </p><p><a href="https://www.vshayne.com/">www.vshayne.com</a></p><p><a href="www.therightfiction.com">www.therightfiction.com</a></p><p><a href="https://spoti.fi/3DRQhnO">Spotify Playlist "Songs That Name Drop"</a></p>

      <title>Songs That Modulate</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In music, modulation is the change from one tonality or tonal center to another. It is  a tool composers and songwriters use, in many cases, to add interest or excitement to a song. </p><p>The 18th century composer Charles-Henri Blainville says “Modulation is the essential part of the art. Without it there is little music, for a piece derives its true beauty not from the large number of fixed modes which it embraces but rather from the subtle fabric of its modulation.”</p><p>While the 21st century master John Oates says “It’s kind of a cheap shot to modulate….Darryl and I modulated 4 times (in their song She’s Gone) and never modulated again in our careers”</p><p>So which is it?

      <title>Songs In Odd Time Signatures w/ Ross Bellenoit (Singer, Songwriter, Producer, Guitarist)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>When we listen to music, in many cases, our ears will gravitate to the beat. But sometimes songwriters will throw in some Odd time signatures into songs to add another layer of feeling and information into the song. In many cases these songs may give you the feeling that something is a bit “off” especially when you try and tap your feet to them.  This can happen in the most subtle of ways or it can be all the way bonkers. Well that’s what we are gonna shine the spotlight on in today’s show. Today we’re gonna discuss our favorite songs that have odd time signatures. </p><p>And today we have a very special guest to help us on this topic.  Ross Bellenoit is joining us!</p><p>Since moving to Philly in 2003 Ross has been killin it. As a guitarist, songwriter, or producer he’s worked with a ton of amazing artists including Amos Lee, Birdie Busch, The Sweetback Sisters, John Carter Cash, and the Joseph Parsons Band. He’s also made 5 awesome and intricately musical albums with his band Muscle Tough, with a sound that is a heavily improvised blend of modal jazz, funk, and psychedelia. And as a solo artist he’s put out 5 stellar solo albums with his latest “Where Does the Go?” being released in 2020.  </p><p><a href="https://www.rossbellenoit.com/">www.rossbellenoit.com</a></p><p><a href="https://muscletoughband.com/">https://muscletoughband.com/</a></p><p><a href="https://spoti.fi/3rwqWLs">Spotify Playlist “Songs In Odd Time ” </a></p><p><a href="www.therightfiction.com">www.therightfiction.com</a></p>

However, we, in fact, are not scientists but musicians… And while we can’t tell you the rate at which sea levels are rising or the rain forests are shrinking…. We still think this old ball is pretty cool and we’d like to make it stay cool for years to come. So, we’d like to honor this year’s Earth day by doing what we do second best (after making music) and give you a list of our favorite Earth, Wind, Water, and Fire related songs for you to listen to as you go out and save the world!</p><p><a href="www.therightfiction.com">www.therightfiction.com</a></p><p><a href="https://spoti.fi/3DYgYaH">Spotify Playlist “Songs for Earth Day”</a></p><p><a href="https://bandsintown.com/e/103232577">Our Upcoming Music Show @ Dawson Street Pub in Philadelphia, PA</a></p>

      <title>Songs from 1964 (Bonus Single Release: Rumble Young Man by The Right Fiction)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>February 25th, 1964. On this date 58 years ago, one of the most anticipated, watched and controversial fights in sports history took place. That’s the date when Muhammad Ali, then known as Cassius Clay, beat Sonny Liston by technical knockout when he failed to answer the bell for the seventh round. Sensing that he had made history, he quickly ran to the ropes and repeatedly yelled "I'm the greatest!" and "I shook up the world."</p><p>Not only was that true, but in the larger context of what was happening in 1964 that was an even bolder statement than it seems on the surface - Beatlemania had just begun in February 1964 with their first appearance on the Ed Sullivan show, President Kennedy had just been assassinated in November 1963, Motown was just starting to heat up the charts with their hits, the civil rights era was in full bloom, and the 1964 presidential election was making everyone crazy.</p><p>On today’s episode we are going to do something special as we help give everyone a musical snapshot of what was going on in the world in 1964.  And we are also going to take this one step further by sharing with you something we’ve been working on for the past 2 years.  </p><p>Ali’s utter confidence in 1964 to think he could do the absolutely unthinkable has inspired us to capture that sentiment in a song, our debut single “Rumble Young Man”, which we’ll be sharing with you at the end of the episode. We are super excited to share this song with you and we hope you enjoy it!</p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/track/64nvQVjbx3vC6alET4I0X4?si=a7710a32199a4fb5">New single by The Right Fiction - "Rumble Young Man"</a></p><p><a href="https://spoti.fi/3t8XDi4">Spotify Playlist - Songs from 1964</a></p><p><a href="www.therightfiction.com">www.therightfiction.com</a></p><p> </p>

It means something to us. </p><p>When you listen to "Blue in Green" or "Flamenco Sketches" by Miles Davis, they give you that feeling of calm and love. Or when you hear Kanye West’s "We Major," you immediately get pumped up and ready to attack your day. Or on November 1st, when you hear the first notes of Darlene Love’s "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. That is the power of amazing art…. But what about the people that make the art? Do they have a stake in giving you those nice feelings? Should our feelings be transferred to them as the creators of the art we love? </p><p>Yes… No… Maybe… Well, the only thing to be sure of is that it’s definitely complicated. Fortunately, on today’s show we’ll be digging deep into these questions as we discuss the concept of Art vs. The Artist. And, with a topic this heavy we just had to bring on an expert guest to help us untangle everything. </p><p>Special Guest: Tom Moon </p><p>Tom Moon has been writing about pop, rock, jazz, blues, hip-hop and the music of the world since 1983.

From 1988 until 2004 he served as music critic at the Philadelphia Inquirer and his work has appeared in Rolling Stone, GQ, Blender, Spin, Vibe, Harp and many other publications.

      <title>Songs with 3 Chords or Less w/ Paul Kleinert from PK and the In-Betweens</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The backbone of so much music we know and love is made up of chords and chord progressions. In music, a chord is any harmonic set of frequencies consisting of multiple notes (also called "pitches") that are heard at the same time. And a chord progression is a series of chords played one after the other.  </p><p>A common debate among songwriters out there is the question of … how many chords are needed when writing a great song? Some fall on the spectrum of more is better -  saying that more chords provide a wider palette to draw upon when conveying emotion to the listener, while others say that having too many chords in a song detracts from the lyrical impact and emotional delivery of the song. </p><p>Well on today’s show we are going to examine, and in some instances, try to make the case for the less-is-more side of this debate as we discuss our favorite songs with 3 chords of less!  </p><p>Today we are joined by singer songwriter Paul Kleinert from PK and the In-Betweens.  Paul is a lifelong resident of the Lehigh Valley and kicked around the greater Philadelphia music scene during the 90s with his original band Waiting for Rain until the band dissolved in 2000. Other than a few open mics and a reunion show with his old band, Paul has remained off the stage and under the radar focusing his creative talent and energy on his career as a high school teacher.  He returned to the studio in 2019 with Philly Producer and Engineer Brian Bricklin at the helm.  Backed in the studio by a team of Philadelphia all-stars including Erik Johnson and Kevin Hanson of Huffamoose, Brendan McGeehan, Howie Gordon and Joanna Pacitti, Paul released the EP “A Lifetime of Almost” in early 2020.   PK is currently finishing his 2nd EP with Brian and working on a separate song cycle with Tyler Skye at Monoplane Recording Studio.  </p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6fryyqW6xDkzZWeDmUXdCH?si=54121b94470b4c73 ">Spotify Playlist “Songs with 3 Chords or Less”</a></p><p><a href="www.rightfiction.com">www.rightfiction.com</a></p><p><a href="https://pkandtheinbetweens.com/home">PK and the In-Betweens website</a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/artist/6mFmTYNRiHMh16hzzRL4EI?si=VIj5Lc4RQC-628ztUTFCbA">PK and the In-Betweens on Spotify</a></p>

      <title>Power Pop Anthems w/ John Faye</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>The term "power pop" was coined by the Who's Pete Townshend in 1967 to describe their style of music. However, the term became more widely identified with subsequent artists from the 1970s who sought to revive Beatles-style pop. AllMusic describes the style as "a cross between the crunching hard rock of the Who and the sweet melodicism of the Beatles and the Beach Boys, with the ringing guitars of the Byrds thrown in for good measure". The sound of the genre became more established thanks to early 1970s hits by Badfinger, the Raspberries, and Todd Rundgren. Subsequent artists occasionally drew from developments such as new wave, punk, glam rock, pub rock, college rock, and neo-psychedelia. On today’s show we are very excited to explore the power pop genre with you from its beginnings in the 60’s up to artists today like Green Day, Weezer, and of course our Special guest John Faye! So sit back and hang with us for a bit as we discuss our favorite Power Pop Anthems!</p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5fMkqEt3MwWb6Eo5t2c5FW?si=4ef0f3289d394220">Spotify Playlist: Power Pop Anthems</a></p><p><a href="www.rightfiction.com">www.rightfiction.com</a></p><p><strong>Special Guest: John Faye</strong></p><p>As a musician of Korean-Irish descent, Faye was one of the only mixed-race Asian Americans to sign a major label recording contract in the 90’s heyday of alternative rock. As the lead singer and songwriter for the Caulfields, he released two albums on A&M Records, had a modern rock radio hit in the US and Australia (“Devil’s Diary”), had song placements in major films and television shows through a publishing deal with Warner-Chappell, and toured nationally and internationally. </p><p>At the end of 2017, with over three decades in the music business under his belt, Philly rock veteran John Faye decided to take a new direction in his creative life and went on a self-imposed hiatus from recording and performing to look back on his life and career in his upcoming memoir, tentatively titled The Yin and the Yang of it All: Memories from the Cusp, as told by a Mixed-Up, Mixed-Race Kid. </p><p>In his memoir, Faye shares his unusual perspectives on identity, race, and fame, and also recounts brushes with the likes of KKK grand wizard David Duke, TV-host Tom Bergeron, Apollonia (from Purple Rain), and numerous well-known rock bands from the 90’s. Ultimately, it is the story of finding his voice and his tribe in the world of rock and roll, with his strong and enigmatic mother as his emotional anchor.</p><p>With eleven full-length studio albums, two live albums, a B-sides record, three EP’s, a DVD, and a handful of digital singles to his credit, John Faye has amassed an impressive musical resume.</p><p><strong>John Faye's Links:</strong></p><p><a href="https://johnfaye.com/home">https://johnfaye.com/home</a></p><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/johnkimfaye">John's Patreon Page</a></p>

So sit back and hang with us for a bit as we discuss our favorite Power Pop Anthems!</p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5fMkqEt3MwWb6Eo5t2c5FW?si=4ef0f3289d394220">Spotify Playlist: Power Pop Anthems</a></p><p><a href="www.rightfiction.com">www.rightfiction.com</a></p><p><strong>Special Guest: John Faye</strong></p><p>As a musician of Korean-Irish descent, Faye was one of the only mixed-race Asian Americans to sign a major label recording contract in the 90’s heyday of alternative rock. As the lead singer and songwriter for the Caulfields, he released two albums on A&M Records, had a modern rock radio hit in the US and Australia (“Devil’s Diary”), had song placements in major films and television shows through a publishing deal with Warner-Chappell, and toured nationally and internationally. </p><p>At the end of 2017, with over three decades in the music business under his belt, Philly rock veteran John Faye decided to take a new direction in his creative life and went on a self-imposed hiatus from recording and performing to look back on his life and career in his upcoming memoir, tentatively titled The Yin and the Yang of it All: Memories from the Cusp, as told by a Mixed-Up, Mixed-Race Kid. </p><p>In his memoir, Faye shares his unusual perspectives on identity, race, and fame, and also recounts brushes with the likes of KKK grand wizard David Duke, TV-host Tom Bergeron, Apollonia (from Purple Rain), and numerous well-known rock bands from the 90’s. Ultimately, it is the story of finding his voice and his tribe in the world of rock and roll, with his strong and enigmatic mother as his emotional anchor.</p><p>With eleven full-length studio albums, two live albums, a B-sides record, three EP’s, a DVD, and a handful of digital singles to his credit, John Faye has amassed an impressive musical resume.</p><p><strong>John Faye's Links:</strong></p><p><a href="https://johnfaye.com/home">https://johnfaye.com/home</a></p><p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/johnkimfaye">John's Patreon Page</a></p>

      <itunes:summary>Joni Mitchell is a giant of music period.  She has created some of the most beloved albums and songs of any artist in the past 100 years.  And her reach is well beyond the North American Continent as her songs have been, and continue to be, covered by artists all over the world.  And its not only the brilliance of her compositions that have delighted fans for so long, but its also the sheer magnitude, output, and expressive nature of her work that makes it possible for even folks well versed in her catalogue to find something new with every listening of her music. That is why today we are celebrating Joni Mitchell today, the composer version ,as we discuss our favorite Joni Mitchell cover songs.  

Special Guest: Imani Roach
Imani is a Philadelphia based art-writer, visual artist and musician. Across disciplines, her interests include the surveillance, consumption and containment of black emotion, vulnerability and entitlement practices in urban space, gender and the public/private divide, and aging bodies in the American imaginary. Her recent sculptural work uses everyday consumables like bread and candle wax to think through issues of gender, labor and the black body. She performs regularly as a vocalist in the soul, folk and jazz idioms.

Whether it’s flannel, pumpkin spice lattes, or just relief from the summer heat, some people get really into autumn. Of course, October also means playoff baseball. We here at The List enjoy our sports ball, but of course are always interested in the intersection of sports and music. There’s no better example of this than baseball walk-up music. The right song can fill the stadium with palpable energy and get the players hyped to perform their best. So we got to thinking, what would we choose if we were walking up to the plate to take a swing at greatness? So… Settle in as we give you our top 3 baseball walk-up songs.</itunes:summary>

      <itunes:summary>Charlie Watts was one of the pillars of Rock and Roll.  A giant in music that helped shape the sound of rock forever.  He provided the backbeat for all of Mick Jagger’s sneers and snarls, for Keith Richards stabs and struts, and Bill Wyman’s punctuated punches as the drummer of arguably the greatest Rock Roll band of all time The Rolling Stones.

With his recent passing we wanted to pay tribute to his massive impact on the music world, as we share our favorite Charlie Watts performances.

      <itunes:summary>Psychedelic music started in the 1960s and coincided with the rise in use of psychedelic drugs such as LSD and mushrooms which facilitated visual and auditory hallucinations. These two forces were so intertwined that a young band called the Warlocks played a key role at the Acid Test Events happening in the mid-60’s in San Francisco that really helped popularize LSD use across the country.  And of course, that band eventually changed its name to The Grateful Dead. In fact, Owsley Stanley who established the first major underground LSD factory and who was called the “Acid King” became the Grateful Dead’s financial backer, renting them a house and buying them sound equipment. 

So yes, Psychedelic music and Psychedelic drugs go hand and hand. BUT… do they have to? Is the music good on its own merits? I mean can we just listen to psychedelic music without the drugs and truly enjoy it, while not necessarily listening to it as it was originally intended to be heard? We don’t know. However, on today’s pod we’ll explore these questions and more as we share with you our favorite psychedelic albums and why we love them.

      <itunes:summary>I’m quite old now, but I can still remember all the words to many of the theme songs from the shows I watched growing up.  With most of them, I might not have heard them for at least 25 years…. Yet I can remember all the words, melody, and instrumentation for these shows…  While this might mean that I watched way too much TV growing up (which is true), it also might mean that the theme songs for these shows were much more than just filler to introduce the show.  They were a key ingredient in what made these shows successful in the first place.  They set the mood for the show and were a cleanser of sorts for the ads or whatever you were doing before you sat down to watch. In other words these TV show theme songs were very important to your whole television experience AND in many many instances these songs were amazing pieces of music as well.

So, with such an important topic we’ve invited a noted TV Show Theme Song Scholar to Join us on the pod today to discuss our Favorite TV Show Theme Songs. Welcome Mutlu!

Mutlu is an internationally known singer­-songwriter from Philadelphia. His music is steeped in Philadelphia’s deep R&amp;B traditions, eagerly absorbing the fundamentals of old­-school soul music and incorporating it into his own musical persona. He’s collaborated and toured extensively as a support act with legendary duo Daryl Hall &amp; John Oates and he’s also gained considerable attention for his work with noted singer­-songwriter Amos Lee, with whom he’s toured extensively as a support act and backup vocalist. In addition, Mutlu has shared stages with the likes of Adele, Katy Perry, John Hiatt, Leon Russell, the Blind Boys of Alabama, Todd Rundgren, Shuggie Otis &amp; many more.

His latest album “Good Trouble” was released in 2019 and is an amazing record featuring his eclectic songwriting and stellar vocals.  He also has a new venture with Spike Eskin of Right To Ricky Sanchez with their new music podcast - The Carl Landry Record Club - where they discuss their favorite albums and turn people on to new music.

      <itunes:summary>Progressive rock, also known as “prog rock”, joined the musical fray in the late 1960’s as a new offshoot from the waning psychedelic scene. The music was based around elaborate compositions, virtuosic instrumentation, and lyrics that were more akin to a fantasy novel. Some would frame it as a rock and roll interpretation of classical music, but only in the idea of songs as movements, and not so much from musical ideas from the classical era. It was also a pivot away from the traditional,  more dance-y rock and roll, and was more of a “listening” music. 

While prog rock generally challenges the listener to actively stay engaged. There has been no shortage of very thorough and devout fans to the genre.  And specifically to their favorite bands such as Yes, Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, Genesis, and King Crimson. However, on the flipside, over the years the critics and the wider music listening audience hasn’t embraced prog rock quite the same as the superfans of the genre.  These critics label it as pretentious and overindulgent, and barring a few artists breaking through, most prog acts have lived perpetual existences as cult bands.

Should it be this way though?  Should more people revisit and explore prog rock for themselves?  Find out with us today as we discuss our favorite Prog Rock Albums and why we love them. So, hangout with us for a bit and see if our list matches yours.

We also have our very first guest today with Mr. David Cope!

David is an amazing musician and prolific songwriter from Philadelphia. His compositions reflect a broad array of styles, from pop and rock songwriting, to classical, to South Indian classical music and more.  In the summer of 2012 Dave released his debut album, “Davey Cope &amp; The English Breakfast: A Proper Record”. Since then, Dave has expanded his output, writing music for plays, television and film. He’s had many fantastic projects over the years including LeBon LeBon, Fantasy Square Garden, and Dave Cope and the Sass. And the pandemic hasn’t slowed him down either, releasing two new albums in the past couple months based on themes of life during the pandemic, in addition to some classical music as well! 

Please take a moment to check out all his music on his bandcamp page @  davecope.bandcamp.com

      <itunes:summary>Have you ever had a deja vu moment when hearing a song? Like it’s just a little too familiar sounding? With only 12 musical notes available, there seem to be a finite amount of melodic, chordal, and rhythmic combinations before ideas start to get recycled. But where is the line between a song being reminiscent of another, and straight up copy and paste musical plagiarism (known in the legal world as copyright infringement). Today, we’ll dig into this topic and share some examples with our top 3 lawsuit songs!

But first, we have a very special guest today - Brian Bricklin!

Co-founder of the band Bricklin, Brian has performed in venues including New York’s Madison Square Garden, Philadelphia’s Spectrum and Tower Theatre as well as the 4th of July Celebration on JFK Parkway in Philly. He has songs featured in many popular movies such as “Bill &amp; Ted’s Excellent Adventure”, “Coming Soon”, “Election”, and more.
Brian’s production and engineering credits include major label releases on A&amp;M, Columbia, RCA, PolyGram, Hybrid/Sire, Bingo Records, and Ruffhouse. You may also have heard Brian’s music on the tube, as his many television credits include: ABC, CBS, NBC, Fox, ESPN, and others. Since 2002, Brian has recorded, mixed and mastered songs and albums for over 200 bands, label recording artists, singer-songwriters and children’s music albums. He has also served as an expert witness on several high profile copyright infringement cases.

      <itunes:summary>As the 1940’s were coming to an end, Jazz musicians were starting to rebel against the nervous energy and tension of bebop which was led by Charlie Parker, Dizzy Gillespie, Thelonious Monk and others. This led the 1950’s in jazz to be a bit schizophrenic as it was bouncing back and forth from the popularity of cool jazz from the west coast to the hard bop of New York City.  All along the musicians of the era, if they wanted to work and eat had to be versed in all of it and no instrument had to this more than the piano players who provided both the rhythmic and melodic foundation for much of the music coming out of this era.  As a result, during the 1950’s you saw an abundance of amazing piano players providing the backbone of some of the best albums of this decade.  

Well on today’s show we are going to shine a light on some of these stellar piano players of this era as we discuss our favorite piano-led albums of the 1950’s. 

Special Guest - 

Minta Spencer is a classically trained harpist and pianist living in Los Angeles, CA. She has a trio with bassist Brian Duke Song and drummer Taylor Kennedy and they play a mix of hip hop, 80s, funk and jazz. She also creates harp samples for hip hop tracks with recent projects and collaborations with Mathematics Wu, Vice Beats, and she just finished a remix for Chali 2na.  We came to know about her through Instagram where she frequently posts the most amazing videos where she plays Hip-Hop, Jazz, R&amp;B, and Rock all on the Harp which you don’t see very often.   Please please check her out at @laharpista on Instagram

      <itunes:summary>Psychedelic music started in the 1960s and coincided with the rise in use of psychedelic drugs such as LSD and mushrooms which facilitated visual and auditory hallucinations. These two forces were so intertwined that a young band called the Warlocks played a key role at the Acid Test Events happening in the mid-60’s in San Francisco that really helped popularize LSD use across the country.  And of course, that band eventually changed its name to The Grateful Dead. In fact, Owsley Stanley who established the first major underground LSD factory and who was called the “Acid King” became the Grateful Dead’s financial backer, renting them a house and buying them sound equipment. 

So yes, Psychedelic music and Psychedelic drugs go hand and hand. BUT… do they have to? Is the music good on its own merits? I mean can we just listen to psychedelic music without the drugs and truly enjoy it, while not necessarily listening to it as it was originally intended to be heard? We don’t know. However, on today’s pod we’ll explore these questions and more as we share with you our favorite psychedelic albums and why we love them.

There is the choice of studio, and with it - the finances to back whatever that choice becomes. There is the producer, the instrumentation you want to use,  and of course there is the artist or band who are the stars and get all the accolades. 

While that sounds like most of the important elements in making a great album…. those elements are missing maybe the most important ingredient other than the artist themselves.  It is the sideman… or as the term we’ll use on this show side &quot;person.” That is why today we are gonna shine the spotlight away from the stars and give some props to our favorite Side People.

      <itunes:summary>While the first drum machine was created sometime in the 1100 or 1200&apos;s by Ismail al-Jazari, it wasn’t till the 1980’s when the Linn LM-1, was introduced and was adopted by rock and pop artists including Prince and Michael Jackson and the Roland TR-808 began to significantly influenced the development of dance music, especially electronic dance music, and hip hop. As time rolled on, the drum machine was everywhere in pop music to the point where songs today we think might be live drumming are in fact drum machines.  As a fans of real drums, the overwhelming use and popularity of drum machines leaves us with quite a few questions of how they have helped or hurt music (and drummers in particular).  Well on today’s show we’ll examine this question and much more as we discuss our Favorite Songs With Drum Machine.

      <itunes:summary>What makes an artist want to put out a double album?  Why not just release two separate ones?  Is it a commercial decision, an artistic one, or even an attempt to keep the band together?  In doing our research for this show, we’ve found that it might be for all those reasons and many more.  See, double albums are tricky...that they occur is not really an issue, but the true interesting nugget is in “why they were created in the first place.”  Fortunately, for everyone out there we’ll be digging deep in this top as we discuss our Favorite Double Albums.

      <itunes:summary>Prince, Beyoncé, Rufus Wainwright…. While all singular artists, they all have at least one thing in common.  That one thing is that all of them, and really any artist you hear, was influenced by someone else.  Prince was influenced by Stevie Wonder…. Beyoncé was influenced by Diana Ross and….Rufus Wainwright was influenced by Judy Garland….Without these influences, maybe these iconic artists wouldn’t be who they are today. Now, these influences haven’t defined them as artists, but have rather provided a foundation for them to explore their own particular artistic offerings to the world and have thus influenced countless artists that came after them.

As a band, we make what we think is our own brand of music and on today’s show, we’re going to give you a peek behind the curtain into the artists and albums that have shaped us as artists as we discuss our Most Personally Influential Albums.

      <itunes:summary>How do you take a good song and make it 10x better? You don’t put a trap beat with it, you don’t throw a random wall of sound on it, and you absolutely don’t throw the gated reverb drum sound on it (well… maybe sometimes). The real answer, however, is to add a wonderful string arrangement. Yes, that’s right, a string arrangement. The right string arrangement can help fill in all the emotional cracks in a song and give it the nuance and emotional lift it desperately needs.  It can also enable you to strip away all the other instrumentation (like bass, drums, piano, guitar, etc.) that might get in the way of the emotional core of a song. In other words, it&apos;s the secret weapon for songwriters and producers in the know.  

Special Guest: Andrew Lipke (Composer, Producer, Arranger, Conductor, Vocalist, Multi-Instrumentalist)

Andrew is a Philadelphia-based, South African born composer, producer, arranger, conductor, vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, and educator active in many styles across multiple genres. As a composer he has written works for ensembles such as The Aizuri String Quartet, Carpe Diem String Quartet, Choral Arts Philadelphia, The Philadelphia Bach Collegium, The Chamber Orchestra of Philadelphia, virtuosic vocal sextet Variant Six, and many others.  He’s also released seven self-produced albums of original music encompassing a wide variety of musical styles from early madrigal vocal music to aggressive hard rock.  In addition to his own material Lipke has produced dozens of recordings for artists in the Philadelphia region many of them engineered by Lipke in his studio The Record Lounge.

      <itunes:summary>This is not the first time, we have ventured into talking about Film scores.  The first time was a bit scattered because we realized, most of us (except Brendan) had a difficult time distinguishing between film scoring and film soundtracks.  Therefore, we wanted to take another crack at examining exactly what makes a film score a film score. Also, as this is The List we also wanted to discuss the merits of film scores as art and, of course, give our favorites. Now that we’re digging deeper into this topic, we thought we definitely needed an expert on here to help us out. 

Special guest: Daniel Bowen

Daniel J. Bowen, an Eastern Maryland native, is a self-taught music composer, arranger, pianist, and filmmaker. He has worked with top producers in the music industry, and has composed orchestral arrangements for Grammy winning artists and national television broadcasts. In September of 2017, Daniel launched Symphony 21 in hopes to create a movement that would promote arts and unity in his hometown. His local success with Symphony 21 gained the attention of the Kennedy Center, where he recently performed and gave a talk on the “Power of Music.”

      <itunes:summary>The 1970’s were a really big time for country music with many artists hitting it big on the charts and the artform itself branching out in new ways.  You had the emergence of outlaw country with artists like Willie Nelson, Tanya Tucker, and Kris Kristofferson, the country pop sound of Glen Campbell, Linda Ronstadt, and Bobbie Gentry, and the country rock sound of Gram Parsons, Gene Clark, and even Bob Dylan. With these new branches of country music emerging, there was an explosion of amazing albums released in the decade, drawing from influences like rock, blues, and straight-ahead pop music. 

On today’s show we are going to explore this exciting decade in country music and we’ve brought on a wonderful guest, Sachi Kobayashi, who is extremely knowledgeable about both the past and present of this important genre.

Special Guest: Sachi Kobayashi

On today’s show we are going to explore this exciting decade in country music and we’ve brought on a wonderful guest, Sachi Kobayashi, who is extremely knowledgeable about both the past and present of this important genre.

Special Guest: Sachi Kobayashi

Sachi is a huge huge advocate for public media, working for several prominent stations across the US.  She is also involved with an amazing organization called “Public Media for All” who works to raise awareness of the negative effects of a lack of diversity, equity and inclusion in public media and to provide solutions to address this important issue.

      <itunes:summary>Happy St. Patrick’s Day!  Back in my old stomping grounds of Scranton, St. Patrick’s Day was a very big deal. People started their celebrations very early in the morning at 6 am and I’d say by 2 pm everyone was knocked out and asleep.  But in that window of time you could hear so much music coming from all different directions.  Overwhelmingly that music was in the form of traditional Irish music from bands like The Dubliners and The Chieftains but you could also hear more modern takes on the genre in the form of the Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly.  While most of us, including myself, only think of those kinds of artists on St. Patrick’s Day, there are actually an enormous amount of musicians from Ireland that are making new and exciting music. Some with threads back to traditional Irish music and others blazing a whole new path in the music world.  

On today’s show we are gonna talk about our Favorite Irish Musicians and bands and hopefully shine a light on some traditional Irish musicians you need to know, but also on some new and exciting ones that are making their mark in Ireland, and the world, today.  ~ APB

      <itunes:summary>As soon as you put on James Brown’s song “Cold Sweat” your body just starts to move.  It’s almost involuntary.  It’s inescapable. It’s liberating even… That groove in “Cold Sweat” or “I Got the Feelin”... It just makes you want to dance!  That’s what that good funk can do for you..  From James Brown, to Parliament, to Chuck Brown, to Sly and the Family Stone… Funk has been funking people up for a long time!  And on today’s show we are going to dive into this amazing genre of eminently danceable music by discussing our Favorite Funk Albums.  And to help us out, we’ve brought on a Funk expert to school us in the ways of Funk. 

Special Guest: Katie Feeney aka Roberta Faceplant

Katie is the frontwoman and songwriter for YOU DO YOU which is a funk rock party band from Philadelphia. Led by Katie’s raw, sultry vocal stylings, the band delivers a powerful performance characterized by tight harmonies, funky danceable grooves, and wailing vocals that land somewhere between Whitney Houston and Robert Plant. Since forming in 2012, You Do You has wowed local crowds at venues like Boot &amp; Saddle, The Fillmore, Underground Arts, and World Cafe Live. Recently Katie has stepped out on her own as Roberta Faceplant with her first single “Everything is Trash.”

      <itunes:summary>In general, the art that we love means something to us. It makes us feel happy, sad, it comforts us, it gets us riled up, it gives us goosebumps, it challenges us, shows us something new about ourselves…. It means something to us. 

When you listen to &quot;Blue in Green&quot; or &quot;Flamenco Sketches&quot; by Miles Davis, they give you that feeling of calm and love.  Or when you hear Kanye West’s &quot;We Major,&quot; you immediately get pumped up and ready to attack your day. Or on November 1st, when you hear the first notes of Darlene Love’s &quot;Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)&quot; you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. That is the power of amazing art…. But what about the people that make the art? Do they have a stake in giving you those nice feelings? Should our feelings be transferred to them as the creators of the art we love?

Yes… No… Maybe… Well, the only thing to be sure of is that it’s definitely complicated. Fortunately, on today’s show we’ll be digging deep into these questions as we discuss the concept of Art vs. The Artist.  And, with a topic this heavy we just had to bring on an expert guest to help us untangle everything.

Special Guest: Tom Moon

Tom Moon has been writing about pop, rock, jazz, blues, hip-hop and the music of the world since 1983. He is the author of the New York Times bestseller 1000 Recordings To Hear Before You Die, and a contributor to other books including The Final Four of Everything. From 1988 until 2004 he served as music critic at the Philadelphia Inquirer and his work has appeared in Rolling Stone, GQ, Blender, Spin, Vibe, Harp and many other publications. Since 1996 he has contributed to NPR&apos;s All Things Considered and he’s also won several awards, including two ASCAP-Deems Taylor Music Journalism awards. Beyond his bonafides as a music journalist he’s also an accomplished saxophonist whose professional credits include several tours with the Maynard Ferguson orchestra and recently he launched EchoLocator which is a newsletter devoted to nearly vanished sounds, spirits, ideas and recordings.

      <itunes:summary>Tribute or Cover albums occupy an interesting place in the world of music. The artists making the albums aren’t necessarily creating new works of art, they are interpreting the creations of other artists.  As an interpretation of someone else’s work, what is the value that we place on this?  Does it hold up to the praise or disparagement of the original work?  Does it need to?  Or shall we judge it on its own merits without considering the original?  

We don’t have the answers to these questions, but on today’s show we’re gonna explore various perspectives on this topic of Favorite Tribute or Cover albums to see where it&apos;s true value lies. And, to help us out on this topic today we’ve brought in a true expert when it comes to examining perception and perspectives.

Special Guest: Ed Tettemer

Ed is a writer, brand planner, and creative connector with a passion for helping folks connect dots they didn’t know could be connected. He is the founding partner of the successful advertising agency Red Tettemer, which he established in 1992 and left for higher callings in 2006. In Ed’s work he has launched television networks, breakfast sandwiches, shopping malls, travel blogs, arts festivals, and a revitalized creative movement within the Philadelphia advertising community. And of course, he is a supreme lover of music and has been involved with music for a long time as a musician, jingle writer, and music supervisor.

      <itunes:summary>When the Grateful Dead formed in the late 60’s their music didn’t fit into an established category such as pop, rock, blues, folk rock, or country. While individual songs could be considered under one of these labels, overall their music drew on all of these genres and, more frequently, melded several of them. In addition, their live shows, fed by an improvisational approach to music, were different from most touring bands at the time. While most bands performed their set, just the way they practiced it, the Grateful Dead bucked this formality and took a much more casual approach…. to just about everything.

From this blueprint, fans developed a strong sense of community and loyalty to, not only the Dead’s music, but to their approach to life.  More bands popped up like - The Allman Brothers Band, Phish, moe, and Moon Boot Lover  - which followed the Dead’s blueprint and were accepted into this lively community of mixed genres, improvisation, substance enhancement, and festivals….. and thus a bonafide Jam Band Scene or Community was born. 

Today there are tons and tons of Jam bands out there and for folks new to the jam scene it can be hard to find your place in all this music and community.  Fortunately, for you folks out there, the guys and I will be helping you out today as we discuss our Favorite Jam bands!  And, we’ve enlisted the help of a total music expert, with some serious jam band cred, to help us out!

Finally, he’s also starting a new and exciting interview project at WXPN called “Expansions in Jazz w/ Julian Booker’ where he’ll be interviewing the brightest stars in Jazz today.

      <itunes:summary>I’m quite old now, but I can still remember all the words to many of the theme songs from the shows I watched growing up.  With most of them, I might not have heard them for at least 25 years…. Yet I can remember all the words, melody, and instrumentation for these shows…  While this might mean that I watched way too much TV growing up (which is true), it also might mean that the theme songs for these shows were much more than just filler to introduce the show.  They were a key ingredient in what made these shows successful in the first place.  They set the mood for the show and were a cleanser of sorts for the ads or whatever you were doing before you sat down to watch. In other words these TV show theme songs were very important to your whole television experience AND in many many instances these songs were amazing pieces of music as well.

So, with such an important topic we’ve invited a noted TV Show Theme Song Scholar to Join us on the pod today to discuss our Favorite TV Show Theme Songs. Welcome Mutlu!

Mutlu is an internationally known singer­-songwriter from Philadelphia. His music is steeped in Philadelphia’s deep R&amp;B traditions, eagerly absorbing the fundamentals of old­-school soul music and incorporating it into his own musical persona. He’s collaborated and toured extensively as a support act with legendary duo Daryl Hall &amp; John Oates and he’s also gained considerable attention for his work with noted singer­-songwriter Amos Lee, with whom he’s toured extensively as a support act and backup vocalist. In addition, Mutlu has shared stages with the likes of Adele, Katy Perry, John Hiatt, Leon Russell, the Blind Boys of Alabama, Todd Rundgren, Shuggie Otis &amp; many more.

His latest album “Good Trouble” was released in 2019 and is an amazing record featuring his eclectic songwriting and stellar vocals.  He also has a new venture with Spike Eskin of Right To Ricky Sanchez with their new music podcast - The Carl Landry Record Club - where they discuss their favorite albums and turn people on to new music.

      <itunes:summary>Last impressions. That is what today’s show is about. The Final or Farewell Albums made by our favorite artists.  In some instances these final albums were made by groups that just didn’t like each other anymore. Some, where the artist unexpectedly died. And some, where they knew they were going to die and made their final album with that knowledge in hand. No matter how they were created these albums create the last true impressions of an artist. Yes, after groups break up or people pass away you get the inevitable compilation album full of demos or scrapheap songs, but the real final expression of the artist was made on their final album. You can get a glimpse into where they’ve been, who they are in that moment and maybe even where they wish they could go in the future.  Deep stuff.

Fortunately for all you listeners out there, today we&apos;ll shed light on some of these Final/Farewell albums that you absolutely need to know. Also, we have an amazing guest to help us today.  Brent Edmondson has joined us!!!

Brent is a Double bassist who currently serves as the Principal Bass of the Lancaster Symphony and the Pennsylvania Philharmonic, Associate Principal of the Annapolis Symphony, Section Bass of the Delaware Symphony, and is an A-list substitute with the Philadelphia Orchestra.

He previously held positions with the Beaumont Symphony, Atlantic Symphony, Mercury Orchestra, and Waltham Philharmonic. During the summer, Brent is the Principal Bass and Music Librarian for the Endless Mountain Music Festival Orchestra. And his Recent performances (pre-covid) include the Philadelphia Orchestra, Philly Pops, Houston Symphony, and other ensembles throughout the country. Brent is also a composer, arranger, and creator of film scores. His works have been performed by members of the Philadelphia Orchestra, Pittsburgh Symphony, Winnipeg Symphony, and others. Also. his first film scoring credit is coming out soon on the forthcoming film The Virtuoso featuring Anthony Hopkins.

&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;Today&apos;s Show&lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; 

There are some albums out there that you listen to that you sorta keep to yourself… these are the albums that if your friends or bandmates knew you listened to… they’d definitely give you crap for it… and probably say things like…”how can you listen to that garbage” or “I thought you knew about music… that… is not music”.... Or even “you know… this makes me think a little less of you”

While we generally don’t like sharing these albums with people… we still love them dearly and listen to them often.  So on today’s show we’re going to try and break down the stigma of listening to terrible music as we share our favorite guilty pleasure albums. So hangout with us for a bit and see if your list matches ours.

On this podcast we generally talk about all of our favorite albums. Each episode we try and squeeze in all of our favorites, but unfortunately no matter how hard we try we can’t get them all in.  That is why we have these episodes to chat about the albums that are just below our all-time favorites, but that we think are still pretty amazing.  On this show we are super excited to jump back in and give you another dose of our favorite overlooked albums, so hang out with us for a bit and enjoy the show….

Fred Berman (drummer - Amos Lee, John Byrne Band, Slowey &amp; The Boats, The Right Fiction)

Aaron Parnell Brown (singer/guitar player - Aaron Parnell Brown, Aaron &amp; The Spell, York Street Hustle, Alien Red)  

Today&apos;s Show - 

In the late 1990s a record executive named Kedar Massenburg of Motown Records coined the term Neo-Soul to market and describe a style of music that emerged from soul and contemporary R&amp;B at that time.  Back then, Contemporary R&amp;B was dominated by artists such as SWV, Jodeci, Mariah Carey, and TLC.  These artists were hugely successful and their music was characterized in many instances by East Coast Hip hop-inspired backing tracks.   

When the term neo-soul hit the scene there was a greater feeling of live musicianship and experimentation.  Not only in the recordings of the songs, but within the songs themselves. They harkened back to 1970’s soul influences of Earth, Wind, and Fire, The Ohio Players, and Stevie Wonder where the commercial acceptance of soul music didn’t confine artist creativity as much as it did in the early-to-mid 90s. This movement led by D’Angelo, Erykah Badu, and Lauren Hill created a lasting legacy that endures today with artists such as Solange, Robert Glasper, and Krystle Warren.

On today&apos;s show we&apos;ll be digging into this much loved genre as we discuss our Favorite Neo-Soul Albums!!!! And not only that!!! We have an amazing guest today to help us out!  

Monique Brooks Roberts is joining us today to give us her Neo-Soul Album takes!

Monique is a violinist hailing from Louisville, KY, but now living in Denver, CO. The former member of the Philadelphia String Quartet, released her first solo album “Free” on January 31, 2020 which debuted at #12 on the iTunes R&amp;B/Soul Charts!  You can find it on Spotify and all the other listening platforms.  The album is really really beautiful, extremely soulful, and her playing is just sublime.  

While Free is her first solo album, she’s not new to audiences as she’s performed and recorded for many notable artists including Lizzo, Alicia Keys, Common, Jill Scott, and many more. She has also made appearances on the Grammys, VH1 Storytellers, the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and the BET Honors.

Beyond her playing she is a podcaster! Her podcast The SIP …. Which is short for A Singer (S), an Instrumentalist (I), and a Poet (P) …… is her and two friends Kerrie Joy and Rajdulari where they pour out their hearts, discuss systemic injustice, and explore love and relationships.

      <itunes:summary>If you are a regular old person standing in front of a piano, the first thing you might notice is that there are a whole lot of keys… the next thing you might think is how do the amazing musicians out there get so many cool sounds, styles, and ideas out of that jumble of notes. It really is amazing that vastly different players like Bill Evans, Liberace, André Previn, Billy Preston, and Allen Toussaint can see the same 88 notes and make such incredible music that is so very different from one another.  To me that really is the beauty of the piano, if you can master those 88 keys anything is possible musically - you can play rock, jazz, classical, blues, new age… anything really.

On today’s show we are going to dig into that wide range of styles and approaches to the piano or keyboard as we discuss our Favorite Piano or Keyboard Players!

We have an amazing guest today to help us out!  

Joe Kenney is joining us to give us his Favorite Keyboardist/Piano Players takes! Joe Kenney is a recording artist, songwriter, and pianist from Philadelphia. He currently has four albums out and various collaborations spanning multiple genres. In his playing and writing he blends classical music theory, jazz fusion, rock, soul, and hip-hop idioms to create his own unique musical identity.

His latest album “Forth” was released recently and features six highly decorated vocal artists from the Philadelphia area on a ten-track original album that has music geared towards markets that cross multiple musical styles. The first single, Another Side (Ft. Joy Ike), released on May 8th, 2020, and was premiered by Neon Music (UK) with a glowing review.  It was also featured on WXPN’s The Key site and selected as the Philly Local pick by highly popular radio personality Helen Leicht. The next two releases, All&apos;s Not Lost (Ft. Laura Lizcano) and Gone (Ft Aaron Parnell Brown) were also met with spectacular reviews.

      <itunes:summary>What is a concept album? Is it one single narrative throughout an album? Is it the use of a defined set of instruments on an album… say no high hat or no guitars?  Do all the songs have to be written solely for the album????

Who knows…. If you really think about it, it really could be all of them or none of them.  Concept albums have come in so many forms that it’s almost impossible to narrow down what exactly is a concept album.   I mean you have records like Frank Sinatra’s In the Wee Small Hours that contain songs assembled around a certain sensibility, you have The Who’s Tommy which is a rock opera where all the songs progress a single narrative around the story of Tommy Walker, or you have John Coltrane’s A Love Supreme which is a through-compose suite of four parts reflecting his deep spirituality. All different in almost every way, but the same in that, at least some people, consider them to all be concept albums.

On today’s show we are going to take a look at how people view and think of these peculiar records as we discuss our Favorite Concept Albums, so hang out with us for a bit and see if our list matches yours.

      <itunes:summary>Frank Zappa was one of the most interesting and idiosyncratic artists ever to achieve pop culture fame. Born on December 21, 1940 and passing away on December 4, 1993, he was an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, composer, and bandleader and his work was characterized by nonconformity, free-form improvisation, sound experiments, musical virtuosity, and satire of American culture.  

While many musicians just love Frank Zappa, many &quot;regular people&quot; just don’t get it.  Some truly want to, but just don’t get it.  It can be a bit hard when you have truly great albums like Hot Rats, then have some crazy song like “Why does it hurt when I pee” or “Hot Poop.”  He’s also released so much music that it’s nearly impossible to find a great starting place, releasing 62 albums in his lifetime and 50 posthumous albums, making a total of 112 albums.  That is a lot of music to sift through.   

Fortunately for everyone out there, on today’s show we’ll be diving into Frank Zappa’s music as we discuss our Favorite Frank Zappa albums. Hopefully on today’s show we’ll demystify Frank Zappa for everyone and give you an excellent starting point for appreciating the amazing force that was and is Frank Zappa.

We also have an amazing guest to help us out on our Frank Zappa quest.

Joining us today is Aaron Levinson.

Aaron is a Grammy award-winning producer, musician, composer and record label owner who has produced and released 26 albums since starting his career with Inner City Records in 1981. He also has written extensively about music of the Americas and is an engineer, arranger and educator.  Levinson is the owner of Range Recording Studios in Ardmore, Pennsylvania and served previously as president of Bell Tower Music. He was an adjunct faculty member at Temple University from 2010 to 2016 and from 2014 until 2019 he was an appointed master lecturer at The University Of The Arts. He is also a former governor of the Philadelphia chapter of the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences.

      <itunes:summary>Before COVID happened, this would be the time of year when folks would have friends and family over for parties where they’d have out little bites to eat like pigs in a blanket or some cheese and crackers. Everyone would be dressed snazzy. There would be smarty pants conversations happening everywhere and of course there would be fancy cocktails.  This scene is what is called a cocktail party. However, probably the most important part of the cocktail party is the music which wafts through the air, filling all the dead spots in conversations and just generally setting the mood for the entire shindig.  It can really make or break the vibe at a cocktail party. Fortunately for everyone out there on today’s show we’ll be discussing our Favorite Cocktail Party Albums.

      <itunes:summary>That recognizable counterpoint between the bass and drum downbeat with that offbeat rhythm section makes everyone want to dance. That need to dance when people hear reggae is just innate and uncontrollable. While the groove is easily recognizable and has widespread popularity, most people know nothing of the actual artists that create this infectious music beyond Bob Marley. There are countless classic Reggae albums that are out there in the world.  These albums made by artists such as Toots &amp; The Maytals, Steel Pulse, and The Heptones have so much to offer people not in-the-know.

Fortunately, on today’s show we’ll be sharing with you our Favorite Reggae Albums and why we love them. So, hangout with us for a bit and see if our list matches yours… But First!

For this show we have a guest! Adam Flicker is joining us! 

Flicker, as he is known by folks, is an amazing musician who plays both the keys and trumpet.  He&apos;s played on Aaron&apos;s first album Sing and also on countless other projects as well for artists including American Babies, The Brakes, The Disco Biscuits, Mutlu, Ben Arnold, Up The Chain, and many others.

      <itunes:summary>It is officially fall, my second favorite season. And with fall comes one of my favorite activities... hanging out by the campfire! 

You got the crackle of the warm fire, a blanket, some marshmallows, friends and family, and of course you got the music.  You can’t just play anything by the campfire. You’ve got to match the vibes of the setting with the vibes of the music. To some people Jack Johnson is perfect for the vibes, while to other people maybe its CSNY or some jazz fusion. Not every campfire situation is the same and for those trying to set the perfect vibe, its important to be versatile.  And that is what we are aiming to help you with today as we discuss our Favorite Campfire Albums and, hopefully, give you the tools you need to match any campfire scenario.

Brendan is away this week so we have a guest today to help us out!  Vince Tampio is joining us today to give his campfire music takes!

Vince is a professional musician, arranger, composer, producer, engineer, and educator based in Philly. Vince has contributed to 75+ music and film productions and he arranges for and frequently performs with York Street Hustle  (trumpet), You Do You (trumpet), and the John Byrne Band (trumpet, banjo). Vince founded the Philly Phatness horn section, which has recorded with regional, national, and international artists. He also serves as Musical Director and bassist with Phloyd – A Pink Floyd Tribute. he’s also an author!  Putting out his book Chromatic Cell Permutations for Trumpet, a technical studies book that explores permutations of chromatic cells as performed on trumpet.

His latest album, Adult Children has been recently released and is a full length instrumental jazz album informed by Hard Bop and inspired by Highlife.

You got the crackle of the warm fire, a blanket, some marshmallows, friends and family, and of course you got the music.  You can’t just play anything by the campfire. You’ve got to match the vibes of the setting with the vibes of the music. To some people Jack Johnson is perfect for the vibes, while to other people maybe its CSNY or some jazz fusion. Not every campfire situation is the same and for those trying to set the perfect vibe, its important to be versatile.  And that is what we are aiming to help you with today as we discuss our Favorite Campfire Albums and, hopefully, give you the tools you need to match any campfire scenario.

Brendan is away this week so we have a guest today to help us out!  Vince Tampio is joining us today to give his campfire music takes!

Vince is a professional musician, arranger, composer, producer, engineer, and educator based in Philly. Vince has contributed to 75+ music and film productions and he arranges for and frequently performs with York Street Hustle  (trumpet), You Do You (trumpet), and the John Byrne Band (trumpet, banjo). Vince founded the Philly Phatness horn section, which has recorded with regional, national, and international artists. He also serves as Musical Director and bassist with Phloyd – A Pink Floyd Tribute. he’s also an author!  Putting out his book Chromatic Cell Permutations for Trumpet, a technical studies book that explores permutations of chromatic cells as performed on trumpet.

His latest album, Adult Children has been recently released and is a full length instrumental jazz album informed by Hard Bop and inspired by Highlife.

      <title>Favorite Albums from 2010 to 2020</title>
      <description><![CDATA[The 10’s? The Teens? …. I’m not sure what the last decade is called, but I know there was some pretty good music happening. We got the massive albums 21 and 25 from Adele, Kendrick Lamar blew up with Good Kid, M.A.A.D City, To Pimp a Butterfly, and DAMN.  and the usual suspects of Beyonce, Lada Gaga, Taylor Swift, and Drake also released huge albums.  

Those artists and their albums received lots of attention over the past decade, but for weirdos like us those artists didn’t quite hit the sweet spot.  Our favorite albums of the past decade can be found, in most instances, off the beaten path by well established artists leaving their final legacies and also by artists who have yet to achieve the massive fame that they so deserve.  

That is why we are so excited for today’s show where we’ll discuss our favorite albums of the last decade and hopefully shine a light on some of the albums that we feel just absolutely need to be heard.  So, hangout with us for a bit and see if our list matches yours.

      <title>Favorite Progressive Rock Albums with David Cope (Songwriter, Singer, Musician)</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Progressive rock, also known as “prog rock”, joined the musical fray in the late 1960’s as a new offshoot from the waning psychedelic scene. The music was based around elaborate compositions, virtuosic instrumentation, and lyrics that were more akin to a fantasy novel. Some would frame it as a rock and roll interpretation of classical music, but only in the idea of songs as movements, and not so much from musical ideas from the classical era. It was also a pivot away from the traditional,  more dance-y rock and roll, and was more of a “listening” music. 

While prog rock generally challenges the listener to actively stay engaged. There has been no shortage of very thorough and devout fans to the genre.  And specifically to their favorite bands such as Yes, Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, Genesis, and King Crimson. However, on the flipside, over the years the critics and the wider music listening audience hasn’t embraced prog rock quite the same as the superfans of the genre.  These critics label it as pretentious and overindulgent, and barring a few artists breaking through, most prog acts have lived perpetual existences as cult bands.

Should it be this way though?  Should more people revisit and explore prog rock for themselves?  Find out with us today as we discuss our favorite Prog Rock Albums and why we love them. So, hangout with us for a bit and see if our list matches yours.

We also have our very first guest today with Mr. David Cope!

David is an amazing musician and prolific songwriter from Philadelphia. His compositions reflect a broad array of styles, from pop and rock songwriting, to classical, to South Indian classical music and more.  In the summer of 2012 Dave released his debut album, “Davey Cope & The English Breakfast: A Proper Record”. Since then, Dave has expanded his output, writing music for plays, television and film. He’s had many fantastic projects over the years including LeBon LeBon, Fantasy Square Garden, and Dave Cope and the Sass. And the pandemic hasn’t slowed him down either, releasing two new albums in the past couple months based on themes of life during the pandemic, in addition to some classical music as well! 

Please take a moment to check out all his music on his bandcamp page @  davecope.bandcamp.com

      <title>Favorite One-Hit Wonders</title>
      <description><![CDATA[A hit song…. Is a hit song.  And no one can take that away from you. However, a hit song doesn’t necessarily lead to another hit song, or a career for that matter. When this happens to an artist, they get placed in the dreaded category of “one-hit wonder.” Over the years we’ve seen many one-hit wonder lists or artist profiles on VH1 or TV One and, for me, they all feel sad.  If someone is 22 and has a hit song, but doesn’t have another one…. Was that the pinnacle for them?  Is it all down hill at 22?

Well, in some instances... yes. But in other instances these one-hit wonders have gone on to have long careers in music and also in other industries.  Either way though, whether an artist has a second hit or not, for one moment they were at the top and no one can take that away from them. These are the songs we'll talk about today, as we discuss our favorite one-hit wonders.

      <title>Favorite 80’s Albums</title>
      <description><![CDATA[In a lot of ways, technology helped many 80’s pop stars explode.  From the Gated Reverb drum sound, to the Yamaha DX7 keyboard synthesizer, to the Roland TR-808 drum machine  - this new technology gave the 80’s such a huge and identifiable sound.  Coupled with the rise and popularity of music videos, these sounds became inescapable and it seemed that it was a requirement for any artist of the time to incorporate these sounds… sometimes for the worse.

However, some artists of the era took these new tools and really did amazing things with them, creating memorable albums that are loved well beyond the 80’s bubble where they became popular.  These are the albums we’ll discuss today, as we discuss our favorite 80’s albums and why we love them. So, hangout with us for a bit and see if our list matches yours.

Coupled with the rise and popularity of music videos, these sounds became inescapable and it seemed that it was a requirement for any artist of the time to incorporate these sounds… sometimes for the worse.

However, some artists of the era took these new tools and really did amazing things with them, creating memorable albums that are loved well beyond the 80’s bubble where they became popular.  These are the albums we’ll discuss today, as we discuss our favorite 80’s albums and why we love them. So, hangout with us for a bit and see if our list matches yours.

      <description><![CDATA[There is the artist and then there is the audience - and the connection between them is where the magic happens. It's those special moments at live shows that are really life’s treasures. On very rare occasions that special moment between artist and audience has been captured on a live recording. On these records you can just feel the intense feeling between everyone in attendance. It doesn’t happen often when these moments are captured on record, but when it does happen it is spectacular. That is what we will be discussing today, our Favorite Live Albums.  From James Brown to Johnny Cash, we’ve got the definitive list!

These are the ones we will discuss today as we give our top 3 favorite debut albums.

      <description><![CDATA[When a movie includes terrible music or music that doesn’t enhance the emotions portrayed in the film, it can really sink a movie.  And the opposite is true as well, if a so-so movie has great music in it, it can be considered great.  Music really has that power to amplify or dull what we see on screen.  This is the topic we are going to shed a little light on today - music in film!  We’ve got some great picks for you this week and we’ll also learn a little bit about the technical differences in film music that some people might not know.
