In this special episode of VRP Rocks, guitarist, singer, songwriter and producer Steve Postell joins Paul Stephenson to talk about his incredible musical journey. From his deep personal and creative connection with David Crosby to his role in the powerhouse band The Immediate Family, Steve shares stories, insights and reflections from a remarkable career. We dive into his emotional tribute project, Our House: The Music of Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young by Friends, a live show honoring the legacy of CSNY with an all-star lineup of musicians. Steve opens up about the show's origins, the challenges of continuing Crosby's legacy after his passing, and how the songs of CSNY resonate even more today. Plus, Steve talks about his new solo album, Walking Through These Blues, featuring guests like David Crosby, Becca Bramlett, and Alphonso Johnson. He also discusses the upcoming Immediate Family project – a collection of classic hits they originally helped create with artists like Don Henley, Jackson Browne, and Warren Zevon. Whether you're a fan of CSNY, The Immediate Family, or just great songwriting and musicianship, this is an episode not to miss.

Dave Swift, Bass Man with the Jools Holland Big Band In 1991 Dave Swift heard that Jools Holland, ex-Squeeze keyboardist and TV presenter, was searching for a bassist who played both double bass and bass guitar. With the renowned bassist Pino Palladino then holding the “bass chair” in Holland's band, this was a bold move on the young bassist's part. The advantage from Swift's position was that he also played double bass and was already skilled in sight-reading. Swift auditioned, was hired on the spot, and has been Holland's bassist ever since.   Thanks to his talent and growing popularity, Swift is often invited at shows and camps. Recently, Swift was invited to appear at the annual Warwick Bass Camp in Germany in 2016 as a VIP guest, along with numerous popular bass luminaries from all over the world. The 2016 Warwick Bass Camp was held in Markeneukirchen, Germany, and had a roster of outstanding bassists. Attending professors included Alphonso Johnson, Felix Pastorius, Anthony Wellington and Steve Bailey. Swift was also a guest lecturer at the March 2016 Bass Guitar Show at Earls Court Olympia that filled the room to capacity.   Dave Swift is still an in-demand session musician outside of Holland's band and has also played double bass for American soul singer Gary U.S. Bonds, Ben E. King and on ex-Kinks frontman Ray Davies's album, Other People's Lives.   To support the podcast and get access to features about guitar playing and song writing visit https://www.patreon.com/vichyland and also news for all the creative music that we do at Bluescamp UK and France visit www.bluescampuk.co.uk   For details of the Ikaro music charity visit www.ikaromusic.com   Big thanks to Josh Ferrara for the music   In 1991 Dave Swift heard that Jools Holland, ex-Squeeze keyboardist and TV presenter, was searching for a bassist who played both double bass and bass guitar.

He Didn't Have Control ​by David Garland ​When Bigfoot opened up for the Dead in 1968, it was bizarre. They were telling us, “When you walk down the staircase, don't put your hand on the rail.” We liked LSD, but we figured it was best if we didn't go out and play on that stuff. That was the big time for us. I had never met Bobby Weir until then. ​Eventually I had an opportunity to get involved with Weir, who I just love. Being in that band was the most fun time of my life ever. Weir let us all profit-share. ​Bobby Cochran was my friend. When Brent Mydland decided he didn't want to play with the Midnites, I got the opportunity. ​I showed up at rehearsal and they said, “OK, you're in.” Eventually meeting Alphonso Johnson, Billy Cobham, and Kenny Gradney was amazing. They're all great players. ​I have really good musical instincts. What I lacked in technique I just shut my eyes and went for it. With Bobby I would jump into the jams without any preconceived idea of what I was going to do. He'd have fragments of tunes, and we'd put them together. That's the beauty of jazz and that's the way jazz should be played. ​That band wasn't like the Dead, because of all the strong personalities. Bobby Weir didn't have control over that band.

"125th Street Congress (DJ Logic Remix)" Weather Report: Forecast Tomorrow (Columbia/Legacy. 3CD+DVD, 2006) Wayne Shorter, Joe Zawinul, Miroslav Vitous, Andrew White III, Eric Gravatt, Herschell Dwellingham, Marungo y Don Um Romao. En el remix se añaden las voces de Carlos (Omega) Caberini. La composición es un tema de Joe Zawinul. Tomajazz: © Pachi Tapiz, 2022 ¿Sabías que? El tema original se publicó en el disco de 1973, The Sweetnighter. Enrique Farelo seleccionó ese disco en el especial Razones para el Jazz. La remezcla de DJ Logic es el último tema del tercer CD de la caja recopilatoria de 3CD titulada Forecast Tomorrow. El CD incluía también un DVD de dos horas de Weather Report en directo. La grabación de The Sweetnighter se realizó en cinco días. Se grabó entre el 3 y el 7 de febrero de 1973. El disco salió a la venta el 27 de abril de 1973, al mes siguiente de su grabación. Fue la última grabación en la que participó Miroslav VItous, uno de los miembros fundadores, como bajista principal. En Mysterious Traveller, la siguiente grabación del grupo, participó en un único tema. Alphonso Johnson le sustituyó antes de que Jaco Pastorius entrara en la formación. En 2016 se publicó el disco de Miroslav VItous en ECM, Music of Weather Report. En esa obra el bajista checo volvía a trabajar sobre algunas de las melodías más conocidas de Weather Report. DJ Logic, el autor de la remezcla, formó con el guitarrista Vernon Reid (Living Colour), el grupo Yohimbe Brothers. Esta formación publicó dos grabaciones en 2002 y 2004. La remezcla del tema de Weather Report, pasa a la sección Malditos Jazztardos.

Alphonso Johnson es un músico de jazz y jazz fusión estadounidense especializado en el uso del bajo eléctrico y del Chapman Stick. Nacido en Filadelfia, Pensilvania el 2 de febrero de 1950. Johnson inició su carrera musical como trombonista, pero a finales de su adolescencia se decantaría definitivamente por el bajo eléctrico, inscribiéndose en la Philadelphia Music Academy para seguir los cursos de John Lamb, por aquel entonces el bajista de la Duke Ellington Orchestra. Como él mismo precisó, su actividad profesional se inició en 1968, pero sus primeras actividades de cierta importancia datan de 1972, cuando con tan sólo 21 años recorrería el mundo con la orquesta de Woody Herman, participando al mismo tiempo en la grabación del álbum “The Raven Speaks” de este último. Para entonces, el músico mostraba una inusitada facilidad técnica en su instrumento y había desarrollado un estilo de ejecución muy personal. Su presencia en el grupo de Chuck Mangione atrajo la atención del gran saxofonista de jazz Wayne Shorter, quien en 1974 le propondría para la grabación del disco Mysterious Traveler en sustitución de Miroslav Vitous. El músico contribuiría con dos composiciones para el disco Scarlet Woman y Cucumber Slumber, con un corte funky que presentaba el bajo de Johnson situado preeminentemente en la mezcla. El bajista permaneció aún dos años en la banda, durante los que, además de participar en las giras mundiales del grupo, y registrar un segundo disco para Zawinul y Shorter, grabaría su primer disco de debut en solitario, Moonshadows. Sin embargo, en 1976 Johnson fue sustituido por Jaco Pastorius a mediados de la grabación de Black Market, un disco que cuenta, no obstante, con una fuerte presencia de Johnson en temas como Black Market, Gibraltar o su propia composición Herandnu. Tras abandonar Weather Report, Johnson decidió concentrarse en su propia carrera como solista, grabando Yesterday Dreams en 1976, un álbum que vería su continuación un año más tarde con Spellbound. En este último disco, Alphonso Johnson empleaba ya el Chapman Stick, un instrumento que había descubierto en 1976 y que seguiría utilizando en grabaciones y directos de manera intermitente desde entonces. En 1979 Johnson pasa a formar parte del supergrupo CBS All-Stars, una banda compuesta por el saxofonista Tom Scott, el guitarrista Steve Khan y el baterista Billy Cobham y con la que grabaría un solo álbum en directo. Con la entrada de la nueva década, Johnson iniciaría su actividad como productor con la presentación en 1983 de la banda sonora original de “Sound of Sunshine…Sounds of Rain”, un filme infantil que recibiría una nominación a los Oscar de ese mismo año. En 1984 el bajista se une a la banda de Carlos Santana en sustitución de David Margen. Johnson permaneció tres años en la banda, grabando dos discos (Beyond Appareances, de 1985 y Freedom, de 1987) y participando en una gira mundial con el guitarrista mexicano. Tras su paso por Santana, Alphonso Johnson continuó su actividad como músico de sesión acompañando a algunos de los más grandes nombres de la escena del jazz contemporáneo, como Wayne Shorter, Flora Purim, Quincy Jones, Lee Ritenour, The Crusaders, John McLaughlin o Sarah Vaughan. En 1997 Alphonso editó “Abraxas Pool”, con el grupo Abraxas, formado por antiguos miembros de Santana. Durante 1998 y 1999 formó parte del grupo Jazz Is Dead, junto a Billy Cobham. En el año 2000 participó en una gira con antiguos miembros de Grateful Dead en sustitución de Phil Lesh, antes de unirse de nuevo a Jazz is Dead y a la banda de Gregg Rollie, el organista original de Santana. A este impresionante curriculum de colaboraciones hay que añadir la intensa actividad docente que ha ejercido el músico desde la mitad de la década de 1980: Además de haber contribuido a la edición de varios métodos didácticos, Johnson ha impartido clases en algunas de las más prestigiosas academias de música moderna del mundo, incluyendo la Mesar Hause Institute of Music de Tokio, la Bass School of Music de Colonia, el Musicians Institute, o el Los Angeles Music Academy de cuyo departamento de bajo eléctrico es director desde 1997. Entre los numerosos artistas con quien Alphonso Johnson ha colaborado, podemos citar a: Chet Baker, Santana, Weather Report, The Crusaders, Bob Weir, Chuck Mangione, George Duke, En Vogue, Wayne Shorter, Sérgio Mendes, Tony Williams, Joe Williams, Gregory Hines, Neal Schon, Tom Coster, Dee Dee Bridgwater, Eric Gale, Ronnie Foster, Allan Holdsworth, Cannonball Adderley, Stanley Clarke, Woody Herman, Eddie Henderson, Flora Purim, Quincy Jones, Lee Ritenour, Phil Collins, Tom Scott, Steve Khan, The Whispers, John McLaughlin, Jeffrey Osborne, Sarah Vaughan, Dori Caymmi, Pino Daniele, Carl Anderson, Jeff Beck, Jan Hammer o Jimmy Page. Alphonso Johnson es uno de los bajistas más representativos de la escena internacional, y un músico que ha contribuido con su ejemplo al enorme crecimiento de la técnica instrumental del bajo eléctrico. Junto a figuras como Stanley Clarke, Steve Swallow, Francis “Rocco” Prestia, Anthony Jackson o Larry Graham forma parte de la generación de bajistas que posibilitaron -anticipándola- la gran revolución en el bajo eléctrico que trajo consigo la llegada de Jaco Pastorius. La entrada de Johnson en Weather Report sustituyendo al virtuoso contrabajista Miroslav Vitous, supuso un nuevo sonido para la banda, más moderno, afilado y funky. Sin embargo, su posición histórica como antecesor de Jaco en el grupo ha ejercido en Johnson una doble influencia que no siempre ha resultado positiva para el bajista, pues al tiempo que la asociación de ambos nombres ha contribuido a divulgar la obra de Johnson entre críticos y aficionados, ha empañado también sus contribuciones bajo la enorme sombra de Pastorius. Sin embargo, las aportaciones de Johnson van mucho más allá que el simple papel que ha jugado como predecesor de Jaco Pastorius en Weather Report: en su obra, el artista desarrolla una voz absolutamente diversa que merece, por méritos propios, un puesto de honor en la historia del bajo eléctrico.

Playlists for all past Sets of Jazz Gumbo will be found at jazzgumbo.blogspot.ca Some Highlights: The Benny Goodman Orchestra’s “Sing, Sing, Sing” had become a band and audience favorite by the time they performed at Carnegie Hall in 1938, and they closed a very successful show with the version that opens this Set. Drummer Gene Krupa drives the 8-minute number, but it’s full of great horn flourishes and solos, by Goodman on clarinet, Babe Russin on tenor, Harry James on trumpet, more of Benny, then Jess Stacy of piano. It’s brilliant! What a show that must’ve been. George Duke wrote and arranged “Be Cool” and leads a group of All-Stars for another rousing live performance, this time at Montreux. Many of these musicians had never performed together, and according to all accounts, the rehearsals were horrible. But the live show brought the magic. Solos by Duke and by flautists Hubert Laws and Bobbie Humphrey, with a rhythm section that includes Billy Cobham on drums, Alphonso Johnson on bass and with Bob James conducting. Bennie Maupin’s “The Jewel in the Lotus” is one of those very special albums with a mood all its own, perfect for middle-of-the-night magic and mellowness. It features the most earthy of acoustic bassists in Buster Williams. Thanks to my Polish family for the Możdżer, Danielsson & Fresco cd. I don’t know any of them. Their tune here is shimmering, sizzling & sweet. I’ll be re-visiting this album soon. Ray Bryant delivers a rapturous solo piano performance. Kenny Garrett is his usual driving, dynamic self. And War, probably my favorite group from my teens, shows you why, with their natural, funk and roots sound. That's not even the half of it! I could go on and on and on. But I’ll leave it with you. Thrive! Kirby

Prior to Santana, Rolie played with a group called William Penn and his Pals while attending Cubberley High School in Palo Alto, California, circa 1965. A year after graduating from high school in 1965, Rolie joined Carlos Santana and others to form the Santana Blues Band, which was later shortened simply to Santana. As a founding member of Santana, Rolie was part of the band's first wave of success, including an appearance at the Woodstock Music and Art Festival in 1969 and central roles in several hit albums. He is perhaps best known for being their original lead vocalist, with his voice driving such classic Santana hits as Black Magic Woman (US #4), Oye Como Va, No One To Depend On and Evil Ways. He also became well known for his unique sound and groundbreaking work on the Hammond B3 organ, with classic solos on many of the aforementioned hits. However, persistent differences with Carlos Santana regarding the musical direction of the band led Rolie to leave the band at the end of 1971. In 1973 Rolie joined a new band with ex-Santana guitarist Neal Schon; this became Journey. Starring in a lineup that featured Schon, Aynsley Dunbar, George Tickner, and Ross Valory, he was keyboardist for the band's first six albums. On Journey and Look into the Future, he was lead vocalist, and on Next he shared those duties with guitarist Neal Schon. After Steve Perry joined the band in 1977, Rolie sang co-lead vocals on several songs on the albums Infinity, Evolution, and Departure. After leaving Journey in 1980, Gregg released several solo albums, including the eponymous Gregg Rolie in 1985. This album featured the song “I Wanna Go Back,” which later became a hit for Eddie Money, and included contributions from Carlos Santana, Peter Wolf, Neal Schon, and Craig Chaquico. A second solo effort, Gringo, was released in 1987. Rolie formed The Storm in 1991 with Steve Smith (replaced by Ron Wikso after the recording of the first album) and Ross Valory of Journey. The band also included Josh Ramos (whose guitar style resembles that of Neal Schon) and Kevin Chalfant (whose voice resembles that of Steve Perry). Similar to his work with Journey and Steve Perry, Rolie played keyboards and was a co-lead vocalist on several tracks of the band's first, eponymous, album, which hit #3 on the Billboard albums chart and spawned the Top Ten single “I've Got A Lot To Learn About Love.” Despite this success, their second album, recorded in 1993, was shelved, due to the industry's shifting focus to favor rap and alternative music audiences. It finally saw limited release in 1996, and in 1998, Rolie and other former members of Santana, including Neal Schon, briefly reunited as Abraxas Pool, releasing one eponymous album. When Schon left to lead a re-formed Journey later that year, Rolie and Ron Wikso began work in 1999, on a Gregg Rolie solo CD, titled “Roots”, which eventually led to the forming of the Gregg Rolie Band. Besides Rolie and Wikso, “Roots” featured appearances by Neal Schon, Alphonso Johnson, Dave Amato, Adrian Areas, Michael Carabello. The Gregg Rolie Band saw Kurt Griffey taking over guitar duties and the addition of Wally Minko as a second keyboardist. They recorded a live CD at Sturgis called “Rain Dance”, which was released in 2009. #Santana #Journey
