Podcast appearances and mentions of Barry Manilow

The guys are on a brief hiatus this week, but we proudly present this all-time favorite of ours from back in 2021! ----- Originally released August 14 and 21, 2001 Not every Lennon and McCartney tune made its way onto a Beatles record, but that didn't mean they had to hide away gathering dust, only to be released on some future 20-disc rarities box set. The greatest songwriting duo in history also kicked some of their work over to other artists making their names in the 60s—Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas, Cilla Black, the Fourmost, some scrappy Londoners calling themselves the Rolling Stones, etc.—and this week T.J. and Tony share some of their four-fab faves the Beatles gave away. And maybe also a couple of tossers. While they're at it, they also made some time to: Record a pilot episode for the Untitled TV Guide Podcast* Play a game of "Bob Gaudio, James Guercio, or Joe Guercio?" And reveal their long-guarded secret that Tony and T.J. were, in fact, Chad, Jeremy, Peter, Gordon, Jan, AND Dean. Buckle up! It's gonna be a two parter. * Please no stealing our amazing podcast ideas -- In this thrilling conclusion, T.J. and Tony get Lost in Space (and Portugal) while rummaging thru the songs John, Paul and George gave to other artists—P.J. Proby, Mary Hopkin, Badfinger, Jackie Lomax and more. The embarrassment of riches is sure to send you into a lap slappin' frenzy. As usual, the fellas pose hard-hitting questions such as: Which performance trick did Paul McCartney nick from Barry Manilow? Who is the most famous member of Hollywood Vampires? Do they have the rodeo in the United Kingdom? Plus cameo appearances by local plumbers from Tony's crackerbox palace. Today's episode was compiled by guest editor L'anJello Peculiarissimo.   EPISODE LINKS Like and subscribe! Please support our scrappy show. Score some BRAND NEW MERCH or find us on Patreon.

They also talked about audio setup issues and technical adjustments for a live stream. The conversation briefly touched on the situation with Jimmy Kimmel and the role of politics in late-night talk shows, but Jan stopped the discussion before it could become too political. The conversation ended with a brief discussion about the shift towards streaming media and its impact on traditional broadcast ratings.Music Industry and Concert TrendsThe group discussed various topics including concert ticket prices, the changing music industry, and upcoming tours.

The group also briefly discussed a potential concert by a band named Hotel California in Canada, which David Dansky clarified was not his band.Music Copyright and Tech UpdatesThe group discussed copyright issues, particularly regarding the Eagles' strict enforcement of their music rights, with Jan sharing a story about a company that could only use "Hotel California" in Japan due to licensing restrictions. Christopher explained the concept of fair use, noting that news outlets can use up to 7-8 seconds of music without permission, while Ken inquired about the rules for live performances.

Wayne explained that while the WNS is less expensive at $35, it doesn't work as well as the Cedar units, which are more expensive but offer better customization with 6 frequency bands. Bruce shared that a 2-channel Cedar unit cost around $4,000 several years ago, while Denis noted that a 2-channel 5045 unit currently costs $2,000.

The discussion concluded with recommendations for adapter solutions to handle different cable types and connector standards in various audio systems.Digital vs Analog Mixing InsightsThe group discussed the differences between analog and digital mixers, with Wayne emphasizing the need for proactive thinking in digital mixing rather than reactive adjustments. Bruce shared his technique of using "home buttons" on digital consoles to navigate back to familiar settings, while Denis recounted a humorous story about a water incident at the Montreal Jazz Festival that highlighted the complexity of digital mixing. The conversation concluded with Bruce and Wayne exchanging stories about their experiences with digital consoles, including a water damage incident at a Phoenix event where Bruce was able to recover the setup using a saved configuration on a thumb drive.LCR Audio Mixing TechniquesThe group discussed mixing techniques for left-center-right (LCR) audio systems in theaters. Bruce inquired about optimal ways to pan vocals and instruments, leading to a discussion about placing vocals in the center and panning band members to the stereo sides.

The conversation also covered the challenges of using center clusters, including coverage issues and the need for proper mixing techniques. Wayne Sims shared an experience using a matrixed LCR setup in a theater in Port Macquarie, which resulted in a seamless audio experience during a spoken word performance.Isolation Transformers in Audio SystemsThe group discussed the importance of isolation transformers in audio systems, particularly during the transition from analog to digital in the late 90s. Wayne Sims shared his experience with creating audio loops and the challenges of working without isolation transformers, while Bruce and Wayne Pierce highlighted the effectiveness of carrying heavy isolation transformers to ensure clean power for audio and lighting systems. Denis inquired about transformers with variable R or Q factors, which Wayne and Wayne Pierce researched, finding that these factors relate to insulation and impedance, though the exact details were unclear.

Fire up the Time Machine, people—Dave and Milt are going full throttle back to '75, and it's a funky, feathered-hair free-for-all. On this Past Tens episode, your fearless hosts trash-talk, gush, and generally geek out over Billboard's Top 10 from September 27, 1975. Bad Company growls, Sweet glitters, and somewhere in there Dave derails the whole thing with a personal “I almost died in a hospital gown” story. Milt, ever the Chartmeister historian, connects the dots between these jams and the cultural circus of the mid-'70s, while Dave sprinkles in snarky asides, dad jokes, and a rant or two about sandwiches. They bounce between rock, funk, country, and schmaltz, drop a few under-the-radar nuggets, and even debate whether Glen Campbell's Broadway references were about, y'know… actual Broadway. Then it's Playdate time: Dave throws down a Generation X Rock Hall challenge that makes Milt sweat. By the end, they're arguing about whether this whole lineup deserves a permanent plaque in the Time Machine Hall of Fame—or just a polite golf clap. Timestamps for your nostalgic pleasure: 00:00 – Past Tens roll call 00:25 – Sandwich rambling commences 01:34 – Dave's hospital misadventure 06:05 – Time Machine ignition 07:06 – Top 10 countdown starts 13:52 – Bad Company brings the thunder 20:59 – Sweet turns the glam up to 11 28:56 – Freddie Fender's tear-stained road trip 34:52 – Famous Freds ranked (because why not?) 35:12 – Fender deep dive 36:01 – Janis Ian breaks every heart in the room 40:23 – Seventeen-year-old angst songs dissected 48:31 – Barry Manilow achieves… let's call it a musical climax 54:09 – Gen X Rock Hall face-off 01:04:19 – “Run Joey Run” and the tragedy of teen melodrama 01:12:22 – The Isley Brothers get funky 01:14:19 – Disney, algorithms, and mild outrage 01:14:53 – Tragic news + media gripes 01:19:10 – Glen Campbell mysteries solved (or not) 01:22:54 – Bowie goes funky chic 01:29:06 – John Denver's swan song 01:33:12 – Wrap-up, wisecracks, and reflection

Send us a textThis week we discuss Ian Hunter and his 1979 LP You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic.  Hunter worked a long time to find success. His band Mott the Hoople were instrumental in advancing glam rock by giving it a rougher edge. David Bowie was such a fan of the band that he even gave them the song "All the Young Dudes" which became the title track for their most popular album, which he also produced. Hunter eventually left Mott the Hoople to concentrate on a solo career and made several albums with Bowie collaborator, and guitarist extraordinaire, Mick Ronson. The results were a series of fine albums, featuring Hunter's (admittedly limited, but expressive voice) against Ronson's classic Marshall stack sound. You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic not only features Ronson, but several members of Bruce Springsteen's E Street band, grounding the album with a solid foundtion. The song "Cleveland Rocks" became an anthem for the birthplace of Rock-n-Roll and "Ships" was even covered by Barry Manilow, becoming one of his biggest hits. But don't let the Manilow cover fool you, You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic is chock full of rock and roll energy and is considered by many as Hunter's crowning achievement. Visit us at www.tappingvinyl.com.

Lee Shapiro's story is one of those great Jersey tales — a local kid with a gift for music who ends up on the world stage, shaping the soundtrack of an era. Born in 1953, Lee was a piano prodigy from the start. By the time he was a teenager, he wasn't just playing other people's songs — he was arranging, orchestrating, and leading his own big band. That early love for music, especially jazz and swing, gave him a strong foundation that would later carry him into pop history.The turning point came in '73, when Lee was only 19. The Four Seasons were looking for a new keyboard player. Bob Gaudio, the original keyboardist and songwriter for the band, was stepping away from performing. Lee auditioned, armed with raw talent and a fearless energy. Frankie Valli was impressed, and just like that, this Jersey kid found himself as the new keyboardist and musical director for one of America's most iconic groups.It was a dream come true. Lee had actually seen The Four Seasons years earlier on The Ed Sullivan Show and thought to himself, “They've got a piano player. That could be me.” And suddenly, it was.Joining Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons in the '70s meant stepping into a band that was ready for a reinvention. Rock and pop were changing fast, and the group needed a fresh sound to connect with younger audiences. Lee brought that spark. He wasn't just playing keys — he was arranging, conducting, and helping shape the new sound of the Seasons.His fingerprints are all over some of the band's most beloved hits of the decade. From “Who Loves You.” or “December, 1963 (Oh, What a Night).” For seven years, Lee toured the world with Frankie Valli, playing to sold-out crowds, recording in top studios, and keeping the band's sound tight as their musical director. He was living the dream.But Lee's story doesn't end with the Four Seasons. In '81, he stepped off the road to focus on other creative ventures. He wrote songs with some of the industry's best. He orchestrated for Barry Manilow's Copacabana, The Musical in '91. In the late '90s, Lee co-created the Rock 'n' Roll Elmo doll for Fisher-Price. The toy became a runaway hit, selling millions and proving that Lee's creativity extended far beyond the stage and the studio.But music always called him back. In 2010, with Jersey Boys shining a fresh spotlight on the Four Seasons' legacy, Lee put together a new project: The Hit Men. This was a supergroup made up of musicians who had actually played with some of the biggest names in music. Alongside former Four Seasons bandmates, Lee and The Hit Men performed the songs they had lived and breathed. Audiences loved it.In 2014 Lee was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis but kept going. He performed for years after his diagnosis. Eventually, when performing became more difficult, he shifted into managing the band, ensuring that The Hit Men could keep bringing classic rock and pop to audiences across the country.In 2018, Lee released a special project close to his heart — a solo piano tribute album called Lee Shapiro Plays the Greatest Hits of Frankie Valli. It was his way of revisiting the music that had shaped his life, this time in a more intimate, cocktail-style format.Over the years, Lee and The Hit Men earned recognition from the music world too. In 2019, they received an award from the Musicians Hall of Fame in Nashville, and in 2020, Lee was nominated as a Legend Musician by the East Coast Music Hall of Fame.Looking back, Lee Shapiro's career feels like a tapestry woven from different threads of creativity — the Jersey boy with a big band, the young keyboardist who helped shape the sound of the Four Seasons, the songwriter and arranger who explored Broadway and commercials, the inventor who made kids smile with Elmo, and the bandleader who kept the music alive with The Hit Men.Lee joins us as our special guest this week to recount his incredible story. I'd love your feedback https://www.abreathoffreshair.com.au

En este DexConexión de verano os traigo cuatro historias que demuestran que vivimos tiempos verdaderamente extraños. Primero, el misterio de por qué en la vida real no me encuentro con el nivel de podredumbre mental que inunda las redes sociales. Después viajamos al mítico Copacabana de Nueva York, ese club donde el glamour, la mafia y la violencia bailaron juntos bajo las luces de neón de Manhattan - el escenario real que inspiró la famosa canción de Barry Manilow. También exploramos una teoría fascinante: ¿y si la Tierra fuera un Parque Jurásico invertido donde nosotros somos los dinosaurios del experimento? Además, descubrimos por qué las trabajadoras sexuales predijeron la recesión de 2022 antes que Wall Street, y terminamos destripando las inquietantes inconsistencias de la investigación oficial sobre la muerte de Jeffrey Epstein. Porque si algo nos enseñan estos días extraños es que la verdad suele venir de los lugares más inesperados.

Evie and Eli are a dynamic duo with a deep love for food, adventure, and building unforgettable experiences. Based in Las Vegas, they're both certified SCA judges, and passionate foodies. Eli is a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, global traveler, and expert builder of custom off-road vehicles. In 2023, he introduced the Military Class to King of the Hammers—his own creation, inspired by converting a 2011 Armorworks Hyena Military Prototype into an Ultra4 race truck. Evie is a top-tier Google Maps restaurant reviewer—ranked in the top 10 worldwide—a creator of unforgettable events, and the designer behind the off-road vehicle that took her and Eli to second place in their class at the 2022 Mint 400. Known for her unique blend of creativity and authenticity, she turns every experience into something truly special. THE VENUE In Spring 2024, they purchased a 5-acre property in Homewood Canyon just outside Death Valley National Park and opened Base Camp Death Valley as an event venue in March 2025. The centerpiece is the Desert Rose Manor, a 6,000 sq ft, four-story colonial home featuring stunning exterior wrought ironwork by the late Raymon Larose—a legendary West Coast blacksmith whose work graces the homes of Frank Sinatra and Barbra Walters, and properties owned by Paramount, Universal, Disney Studios, MGM Grand, as well as creations for Barry Manilow, Michael Jackson, The Osmond Family, and many more. While the Manor's interior is currently undergoing a careful remodel, the exterior will be beautifully finished in time for the October 2025 event—offering a gorgeous backdrop. Guests at Base Camp Death Valley can enjoy one of Larose's remarkable creations up close—the wedding arch made from wrought iron gates originally crafted for Barbra Walters' house. Though these gates were damaged by a visitor before they could be shipped, Larose rebuilt a new set and later repaired the originals. The restored gates now serve as a striking and historic backdrop for the wedding ceremony area, offering attendees a unique glimpse into the artistry that enriches the property. Don't let the reputation of the Death Valley heat scare you away—Base Camp sits at a refreshing 3,000 feet in elevation, often 5–10 degrees cooler than Las Vegas, NV. October temperatures are ideal, and the night sky? Absolutely unreal. As a designated 100% DarkZone, Base Camp offers one of the clearest, darkest stargazing experiences on Earth. THE EVENT On October 11, 2025, they'll host the inaugural Sizzlin at Sunset Steak Cookoff, a fully SCA-sanctioned event featuring Golden Ticket opportunities for Steak and Ancillaries—making it the final qualifying event before the SCA World Championships in Fort Worth March 2026. And because ticket winners can't take home more than one Golden Ticket in a category, it's a prime opportunity for novice competitors to snag a spot. The legendary Ken Phillips, SCA Co-Founder, will serve as the SCA event rep. Competitors can camp onsite(limited spaces available) or take advantage of discounted lodging in nearby Ridgecrest, CA (just 37 miles away). Whether you're a seasoned competitor or a backyard cook ready to try your hand, the Sizzlin at Sunset Steak Cookoff is shaping up to be one of the most exciting, welcoming, and visually stunning events of the season.

These are the headlines you NEED to know about!

On today's show: Bill was downtown last night chauffeuring his Mom and her friends to/from the Barry Manilow concert. We preview new music that just dropped. Bill and Paula can't understand what their son Will did last when he returned from Washington D.C. Good Vibes at 6:55! It's the first day of summer vacation for Bill's kids.

Allysa shares "adult tummy time" on today's edition of "What's trending on Tik Tok". Plus, is Alyssa's newest purchase for her home tacky?

David and Brad dissect America's entitlement epidemic, from Harvard's demand for perpetual taxpayer funding while discriminating against Jewish students, to a Texas man filing a million-dollar lawsuit over unwanted onions on his burger. The hosts explore Trump's battles with an unelected judiciary that strips governing power from elected officials, question how Seattle earned a spot among the world's top-10 cities despite being a certified dump, and reveal the terrifying blind spot near Venus that could hide civilization-ending asteroids.Along the way, they celebrate the glory days when Steven Seagal was a svelte action hero, Barry Manilow could still pack an arena, and people solved problems by eating their damn onions instead of calling their lawyers. It's 45 minutes of clarity in a world where everyone thinks they're entitled to everything, from federal funding to onion-free fast food.

On this week's episode of You Are What You Read, we are joined by quintessential music maker and founding member of The Four Seasons, Bob Gaudio. Bob's career in music started at a young age. At the age of 15, he co-wrote his first hit, "Who Wears Short Shorts," for a group he started, The Royal Teens. His song, "Sherry," in the early '60s, launched The Four Seasons' incredible string of hits. At the time, he also began a productive and creative relationship with Bob Crewe, a teaming that produced an amazing run of hits for The Four Seasons, including "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Rag Doll," "Walk Like a Man," "Bye Bye Baby," "Silence Is Golden," and in 1967, Frankie Valli's classic, "Can't Take My Eyes Off of You." Gaudio also produced and co-wrote with his wife, Judy Parker, "Who Loves You," for The Four Seasons and Billboard Magazine's longest-charting single (54 weeks), "December '63 (Oh, What a Night)." Bob has collaborated with Neil Diamond, Barbra Streisand and Frank Sinatra, and has produced albums for Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Marvin Gaye, Roberta Flack, Barry Manilow, Peabo Bryson and The Beach Boys, to cite just a few. This is a conversation about Bob's greatest hits- the songs we will be tuning up this summer!  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
