Steven works with a variety of artists from electronic pop with big modern vocals to indie rock bands to Americana acoustic music. So I look forward to learning more about the ways he can interact with different artists to bring out their best work. This episode is particularly interesting to me because Saint Cecilia is also the patron saint of music. And Cecilia is the name that I gave to my one of a kind, famous MCI console, originally from Criteria Studio C in Miami, that I had here in my studio, The Toy Box Studio, for 15 years. This is the console that recorded hotel California for the Eagles, the Bee Gees staying alive and Saturday night fever, Margaritaville, We're An American Band, and the Grease soundtrack to name just a few.

Growing up in the Northwest, the Young Fresh Fellows were our Replacements.  Our Big Star.  Our "fill in the blank for the band that never got the due they deserved."  They were an American Band that just played some good time rock 'n roll.  And, Scott McCaughey was the driving force for the band.  He's done alright for himself along the way...being a part of R.E.M. for years, The Minus 5, The Baseball Project.  Scott is a legend.  So, when I had a chance to be self indulgent in discussing both baseball (based on the Baseball Project's latest record) AND "The Men Who Loved Music" with Scott....well...I think you can probably tell that I was super pumped to have the opportunity.   We dig through the stories behind the songs on the album...and relive a little of that time period in the '80s (shout outs to PLU, Amy Grant, The Fastbacks, Dave Niehaus and more).  Even if you're not familiar with Scott or this band, I think you'll enjoy the conversation.  Check out Young Fresh Fellows at:  http://www.youngfreshfellows.net/Check out Minus 5 at:  http://www.minus5.com/Check out The Baseball Project at:  http://baseballproject.net/

Originally recorded over Zoom in Nov 2023, my conversation with the legendary singer/guitarist and songwriter Mark Farner. Best known as a co-founder and main songwriter formerly from the band Grand Funk Railroad (later Grand Funk), Mark Farner's American Band is hitting the road in 2024 with more shows, plus they discuss the recent release of a new concert DVD/CD/LP from 1989.

EPISODE #993 MARK FARNER AND THE HISTORY OF GRAND FUNK RAILROAD GUEST: Mark Farner is one of the founding members, lead singer, lead guitarist, and writer of over 90% of the Grand Funk Railroad music catalog. Farner has always been known as the energetic driving force on stage, the engine that pulled the original Grand Funk Railroad to the top of the charts. His soulful voice and power rock riffs fueled the Funk along with his atomic stage presence. His story and his imprint on music starts with Flint, Mich., and since 1969 from his humble beginnings and a blue-collar outlook, Farner has captained a global crusade for love, peace and freedom and became a rock ‘n' roll icon.  More than 50 years later he commands the stage with the same intensity performing epic hits that defined a generation: “I'm Your Captain (Closer to Home)”, “Bad Time”, “Some Kind of Wonderful”, “Foot Stompin' Music”, “Heartbreaker”, “Locomotion”, “Mean Mistreater” and “We're An American Band”. Farner has amplified his remarkable career by decibels selling more than 30 million records worldwide, including 16 gold and platinum albums. Farner is launching a long-awaited instructional video series. Farner Chords, a new video series where Farner gives a detailed look at the chords and techniques behind the hits, kicks off today with “People, Let's Stop The War”. The single first appeared in the 1971 Grand Funk Railroad album, “E Pluribus Funk”. The video series is free and can only be accessed online at MarkFarner.com. Additional videos will roll out monthly.
