Book Vs. Movie: ConvoyThe CW McCall Novelty Song Vs. the Sam Peckinpah (!) FilmIn the mid-1970s, a unique country song about truckers, CB radios, and the open road captured the imagination of America. It was called "Convoy," and it not only topped the charts but also inspired a Hollywood movie, solidifying its place in pop culture history. Initially a novelty tune, it evolved into a cultural phenomenon. The song was written and performed by C.W. McCall, the alter ego of ad man Bill Fries, in collaboration with musician Chip Davis, who later founded Mannheim Steamroller. "Convoy" rode the wave of the CB radio craze that swept through the U.S. during the 1970s. The song's immense success attracted Hollywood's attention, and soon, the story of "Rubber Duck" made its way to the big screen. The movie, directed by Sam Peckinpah, known for his gritty and violent Westerns such as The Wild Bunch and Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid, added a dramatic twist to the whimsical narrative. So, between the song and the film, which did the Margos prefer? Listen to find out! In this ep, the Margos discuss:How the song was created as an advertisementThe career of Sam Peckinpah The Movie Cast: Kris Kristofferson (Rubber Duck,) Ali McGraw (Melissa,) Ernest Borgnine (“Cottonmouth,”) Burt Young (Love Machine,) Madge Sinclair (Widow Woman,) Franklyn Ajaye (Spider Mike,) Seymour Cassell (Governor Haskins,) Cassie Yates (Violet,) Billy Hughes (“Pack Rat,”) Jorge Russek (Tiny Alvarez,) and Patrice Martinez as Maria. Clips used:“Convoy Truckers Escape Speedtrap”“Old Home Bread Commercial 1973”CW McCall on Hee Haw in 1976Convoy (1978 trailer)“Rubber Duck meets Melissa”“Rubber Duck sneaks into NM.”“Bridge scene Convoy.”Music by CW McCall & Chip DavisFollow us on the socials!Join our Patreon page “Book Vs.

Episode 86 Merry Moog 2022 Vintage Holiday Music Performed on the Moog and other Synthesizers Playlist Frank Luther with Zora Layman, “Christmas Bells” from Christmas In Song (1939 Decca). This is the original 78 RPM release featuring a vocal quartet, bells, and music played on the Hammond Novachord. 0:38 Frank Luther with Zora Layman, “Christmas Day in the Morning” from Christmas In Song (1958 Vocalion). This is a reissue of the 1939 release featuring a vocal quartet, Zora Layman, bells, and music played on the Hammond Novachord. The stereo is simulated. There are some nice moments for the Novachord on this record. 3:12 Paul Tanner, “Holiday on Saturn” from Music for Heavenly Bodies (1958 Omega). This rare disc features Tanner playing the Electro-theremin, an imitation of the Theremin that was a box with an audio oscillator inside and a rotary dial to control the pitch. Tanner, a renown studio musician and trombone player, later provided the sound of the Electro-theremin on the Beach Boys hit Good Vibrations (1966). 4:16 Greg Lake, Emerson, Lake & Palmer, “I Believe In Father Christmas” from I Believe in Father Christmas (1995 Rhino). Produced by Keith Olsen; written by Greg Lake, Peter Sinfield; vocals, Bass, Acoustic Guitar, Electric Guitar, Greg Lake; Drums, Percussion, Carl Palmer; Hammond organ, Piano, Moog Synthesizer, Keith Emerson. This is the original version released in 1975 with a choir and Moog Modular. It differs significantly from the stripped-down mix, also included on this CD, originally appearing on Works Vol. 2 in 1977 and then later in 1994. Rhino Records was kind enough to package all of ELP's X-Mas related tunes onto a CD EP in 1995, from which this version comes. 3:34 Keith Emerson, “Troika (From Prokofiev's Lieutenant Kije Suite)” from The Christmas Album (1995 Rhino). This is the Prokofiev composition that Greg Lake adapted into “I Believe in Father Christmas.” Later on, Emerson released this interpretation of the Prokofiev piece on The Christmas Album” that appeared in the US in 1995. It doesn't appear on the original UK version in 1988. And again, this is taken from the nifty holiday CD EP also released in 1995 by Rhino. This album was made with instruments from Korg, Ensoniq, Alesis, and Opcode. 4:19 Jean Jacques Perrey and Sy Mann, “Jingle Bells” from Switched on Santa (1970 Pickwick).

Moog Modular Synthesizer, Sy Mann; Moog Modular Synthesizer Programmed by, Jean-Jacques Perrey. 1:52 Don Voegeli, “Chanukah” from Holiday & Seasonal Music (1977 EMI). Produced at the Electrosonic Studio of the University of Wisconsin-Extension. Don wrote the original synthesized version of the NPR “All Things Considered” theme. It was created in his Electronic Studio of the University of Wisconsin. He used a Moog Modular Synthesizer plus a Fender Rhodes, Polymoog, and ARP string synthesizer and 16-track recorder. 1:02 Joseph Byrd, “Christmas in the Morning” from A Christmas Yet to Come (1975 Takoma). ARP 2600 Synthesizer with an Oberheim Expander Module. 1:34 Douglas Leedy, “Good King Wenceslas” from A Very Merry Electric Christmas to You (1970 Capitol). Moog Modular Synthesizer and Buchla Synthesizer. Leedy was an American composer, performer and music scholar. He founded the electronic music studio at UCLA where he had access to both Moog Modular and Buchla synthesizers, and it was during this period from about 1969-71 that he was commissioned to create several albums of electronic music. His training as a minimalist and experimental composer always flavored his music with unexpected sounds and patterns. 3:05 Moog Machine, “O Holy Night” from Christmas Becomes Electric (1970 Columbia). Moog Modular Synthesizer. 2:43 Armen Ra (Armen Hovanesian), “O Come All Ye Faithful” from Theremin Christmas (2018 Sungod). Moog Etherwave Pro Theremin. Armen Ra is an American artist and performer of Iranian-Armenian descent. He plays Theremin. His music fuses Armenian folk music with modern instrumentation, along with melodic lounge standards and classical arias. 4:43 Don Voegeli, “Carol of the Drum” from Holiday & Seasonal Music (1977 EMI). Produced at the Electrosonic Studio of the University of Wisconsin-Extension. 1:01 Philippe Renaux, “Noël Blanc” (“White Christmas”) from We Wish You A Cosmic Christmas (1977 Sinus). Belgium.

Christmas carols) (2006 Ліда). Folk singer, accordion and synth player Andriy Kok has recorded many albums of Ukrainian folk music in addition to a number of holiday songs and carols. 5:00 Douglas Leedy, “In Dulci Jubilo” from A Very Merry Electric Christmas to You (1970 Capitol). Moog Modular Synthesizer and Buchla Synthesizer. 1:14 Bernie Krause, Philip Aaberg, “Deck the Halls” from A Wild Christmas (1994 Etherean Music ). This delightful cassette is from Bernie Krause, known for his Moog explorations with Paul Beaver back in the day. He later turned his attention to audio ecology and the recording of nature sounds, particularly of animals. This very special Holiday recording is composed entirely of animal sounds. Some you'll recognize as the natural animal voices themselves. Others may sound like instruments, but they are actually digitally transformed animal sounds. Wild Sanctuary Productions invites you to enjoy a truly unique celebration of both the wild kingdom and Holiday Spirit. All animal and ambient sounds recorded on location worldwide by Bernie Krause with the exception of the fish (courtesy of U.S. Navy). Animal samples, Bernie Krause and Phil Aaberg.

Produced at the Electrosonic Studio of the University of Wisconsin-Extension. 1:56 Don Voegeli, “Lully, Lullay - The Coventry Carol” from Holiday & Seasonal Music (1977 EMI). Produced at the Electrosonic Studio of the University of Wisconsin-Extension. 1:01 Fossergrim, “Ave Maria” (2020 Bandcamp). Fossegrim is billed as “Dungeon Synth music from the Adirondack Mountains.” In Scandinavian folklore, Fossergrim is is described as an exceptionally talented fiddler. No fiddles here. I think Fossergrim is one Ian Nichols of Albany, New York. Check out his Bandcamp presence. 3:54 Phillip Fraser, “Rub A Dub Christmas” from Rub-A-Dub Christmas (1985 Tuff Gong). Jamaican reggae recording for the holidays. Piano, Organ, Synthesizer, Bass, King Asher, Steely Johnson. 2:53 Phillip Fraser, “The Lord Will Provide” from Rub-A-Dub Christmas (1985 Tuff Gong). Jamaican reggae recording for the holidays. Piano, Organ, Synthesizer, Bass, King Asher, Steely Johnson. There is some crazy synth material on this track. Despite it being recorded in 1985, it sounds quite analog for a synth. 3:17 Unconditional Loathing, “Carol, with the bells” from Holiday Mood (2018 Bandcamp). Every artist dreams of releasing an album of hit holiday songs that will surprise the world and bring great wealth. This is not that album. But it is remarkably noisy and dark. Check out Unconditional Loathing, from Fargo North Dakota, on Bandcamp. Self-described as “A footnote in the history of Midwestern noise that refuses to completely go away.” 1:51 The Smurfs, “Deck the Halls” from Merry Christmas With The Smurfs (1983 Dureco Benelux). This album is in English from the Netherlands. 2:17 Vatto Lofi, “Holiday Lofi” from A Merry Lofi Christmas EP (2021 Bandcamp). Providing a low-fidelity tune for the holidays, but I don't know if “lofi” refers to the low-fidelity sound that is currently a thing (and it does sound like that) or is the actual name of this Icelandic musician. 2:21 Rotary Connection, “Silent Night” from Peace (1968 Cadet Concept). I think this holiday album from the famed psychedelic soul ensemble was perhaps only their second album. Produced by Charles Stepney and Marshall Chess, I've included this track not only because it features some crazy electric guitar but also because Minnie Riperton's five-1/2-octave vocal range could effectively imitate a Theremin, which begins in this track around 1:30 into it. In an interview I once heard her say that one of her childhood fascinations was imitating that “science fiction stuff” with her voice. Interestingly, Charles Stepney also included a Moog synthesizer, used sparingly, on some Rotary Connection tracks, but I've heard none on this album. Co-producer Marshall Chess often added Theremin to Rotary songs but this is not one of them. It's pure Ripperton. The Rotary Connection vocalists: Bobby Simms, Jim Donlinger, Jim Nyeholt, Minnie Riperton, Mitch Aliota, Sidney Barnes, Tom Donlinger; The studio band, Leader, David Chausow; Bill Bradley, electronic effects; guitar, Bobby Christian; bass, Louis Satterfield; bass, Phil Upchurch; bass vocals, Chuck Barksdale. 3:52 Klaus Wunderlich, “Sleigh Ride” from Multi Orchestral Organ Sound (1982 Teldec). Wunderlich was a prolific musician who mastered the Hammond Organ. Occasionally, he performed with a synthesizer and this track comes from an album not of holiday music but of various favorites, performed in the style of the original artists. This is a Leroy Anderson song arranged in the Anderson style. The MOOS (Multi Orchestral Organ Sound) was produced by the Wersi organ company in Germany. This organ/synth/drum machine hybrid was also known as the Wersi Galad and play both synth and traditional organ sounds. There is a current musician advocate for this instrument in Florian Hutter (listen to the next track), of Germany. 3:11 Florian Hutter, “Frosty the Snowman” privately released (2022 No Label). Florian is a living master of the vintage Wersi Delta and Atlantis synthesizer/organ hybrids with a built-in rhythm box. In recent years he has begun to release his music on Spotify. This is taken from the first or second day of his Christmas Special 2022 during which he releases a new tune every day. I don't normally feature tracks recorded from YouTube, but this was too good to pass by and it fits with the vintage music played in the previous track by Wunderlich. Check him out. 2:34 Edwin Hawkins, “The Christmas Song” from The Edwin Hawkins Christmas Album (1985 Birthright). Produced when the Yamaha DX-7 became the top selling synthesizer on the planet, this is a great example of its tidy, digital sound.

Sounds like one or two Yamaha DX-7s. 3:57 Ryuichi Sakamoto (坂本龍), “Father Christmas” from Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence (戦場のメ)(1983 Virgin). Music By, Composed By, Performer, Ryuichi Sakamoto. Our best wishes to Mr. Sakamoto who is suffering from Stage 4 cancer.

Not be confused with an album by the same name by The Moog Machine in 1969. Unnamed synthesizer programmed and performed by Bob Wehrman and John Bezjian. From Marina Del Rey in California. 1:46 Hans Wurman, “Overture Miniature” from Electric Nutcracker (1976 Ovation).

Dr. Rob just returned from visiting his oldest daughter, who attends Florida State school. He attended the Clemson vs. Florida State game. Randomly in this edition of the Doc Talk Podcast presented by BetFred Sports, the topic of traditions came up. There are many traditions we know about in schools in the South. This begs the question, does Nebraska have any traditions?  That's not an easy question to answer. Is it the releasing of balloons after the first touchdown? Is it the pipeline? Is it the black shirts? But, seriously, in the landscape of college football, what excellent college football traditions do the Huskers add to the landscape? Also, we want to know if you remember the failed attempt at an Alma Matter song by Chip Davis back when Bill Byrne was the Athletic Director. If you do, you are probably trying to forget it!  Also, former Nebraska Volleyball coach Terry Pettit took a shot on Twitter last week at those who put out "Report Cards" after games. Dr. Rob puts out a report card. We respond the criticism and respectfully disagree with coach Pettit.  Don't forget; we are in the t-shirt business now!

Chip Davis has been making music for over five decades, scoring his first chart-topper in 1976 with "Convoy," the song he co-wrote with Bill Fries. He was named Country Music Writer of the Year in 1976 and of course you've probably heard of the group he founded, Mannheim Steamroller, and the label he created to release its music, American Gramaphone, both of which have captivated listeners and audiences since 1974. Today he tells his story of succeeding against the odds, making Omaha his, and the importance of creating space for art. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/riversidechats/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/riversidechats/support

Trapping for Better Wild Turkey Hatches with Chip Davis This week, Chip Davis from Expand a Trap and Trapping Radio joins Cameron and Andy to talk about trapping. Chip shares stories and statistics about how trapping has changed the dynamics of the turkey population on his hunting property. Chip had a bobcat problem, and after trapping constantly for 3 years, he hardly sees a bobcat on his cameras or in his traps. His wild turkey population has exploded as a benefit of his trapping program. Listen in to Chip tell the story about how his hunting property has become a wild turkey mecca due to his trapping efforts.

All of the music was presented to RADIOnuages for promotional purposes by the artists represented here or their representatives. You will hear new age selections and a few classical pieces on this episode. Performances by Bill Evans, piano. The Celtic harp of Judith Pintar. Daniel Pinkham's HUSHED. Jim Chappell, Colin Chin, Mark Isham, Thijs Van Leer, Bob Kindler, Chip Davis, Edward Christmas, Carol Potter, Paul Winter, Peter Kater and R. Carlos Nakai. Compositions by Eric Satie performed by Murray Khouri.

In the 1970s, a song about protesting truckers topped the music charts in multiple countries, and kicked off a pop culture craze for CB radios. In early 2022, that same song became an anthem for a new trucker-led protest movement in Canada and the US. How did C.W. McCall's “Convoy” come to exist, and what had it been trying to say?  For this episode, which was inspired by a listener's question, we've updated a story that originally aired in 2017, but that could not be more relevant today. Slate producer Evan Chung is going to take us through the history of this bizarre number-one smash, an artifact from a time when truckers were also at the center of the culture. It touches on advertising, hamburger buns, and speed limits but also global conflict, sky-rocketing gas prices, and aggrieved, protesting truck drivers.  Some of the voices you'll hear in this episode include Bill Fries, advertising executive; Chip Davis, singer and songwriter; and Meg Jacobs, historian and author of Panic at the Pump. This episode of Decoder Ring was written and produced by Evan Chung and Willa Paskin with help from Elizabeth Nakano. Derek John is Sr. Supervising Producer of Narrative Podcasts.

It's mid-November, and with COVID numbers trending in the right direction, Mannheim Steamroller will return to the road soon. One of the Monsters of Christmas Rock, the group will start on Tuesday, November 16 in Loveland, Colorado, and it will have two companies on the road until December 30, when they'll finish up in Dallas and San Diego. The tour schedule is online, and tickets are on sale now. The tour will take place as it has since 2008 without founder/composer/arranger Chip Davis, who talks about why in today's episode, along with his journey from a series of albums with "Fresh Aire" in the title blending classical music, electronic music, and prog rock to 1984, Christmas, and Christmas music. Davis talks about his electronic music influences, as well as how he found an audience for an act that didn't fall neatly in any musical camp. He also talks about managing his success and dealing with the reality that Christmas music had become central to the Steamroller's identity, even if Davis didn't see it that way.  Also in today's episode, host Alex Rawls and singer Alexandra Scott discuss two Australian Christmas songs, Paul Kelly's "How to Make Gravy" and Tim Minchin's "White Wine in the Sun." We're still giving away our 2021 listeners-only Christmas mix.

In the 1970s, CB radios and trucking went mainstream across America with C.W. McCall and the song Convoy. What many people don't know is that C.W. McCall was a character from a super successful advertising campaign in Omaha, Nebraska. C.W. was a character created by advertising executive William Fries. Fries was C.W. McCall and his songs were composed by Chip Davis of Mannheim Steamroller. Learn how an ad campaign changed pop culture and made CB radios and trucking the coolest thing since sliced bread with our interview with Chip Davis.

Brett's longtime friend Chip Davis joins in with Brett and Rick in talking about Leviticus 19-27, a section of Scripture which reveals God's heart for people. Too often Christians think of God's laws as restrictive, when perhaps they should be viewed as protective and more.

Some of these songs...I can't even find the years they were released.    Drink Your Wine - Free Reign (1968?) Pop/Rock group from Evansville, Indiana. Originally known as The Corvettes. Josef Laufer and the Golem Group - Ďábel diskoték (Disco Duck) (1977) A Czech version of the Rick Dees American hit.  Frantz - Exhibition Tonight (1983) Freddy Cannon with Ron Dante - Down On Beale Street (2019) I have featured both of these guys from time to time. Not always in a flattering light. So it goes.  Ennio Morricone - Here's To You (1971) (feat. Joan Baez) This song, from the movie Sacco and Vanzetti, has its own Wikipedia page. You should read about Sacco and Vanzetti. James Luther Dickinson - John Brown (1972) Linda Sexton - Unborn (197?) Lyn Todd - Devil Woman (1980) Claude Peloquin/Jean Sauvageau - Monsieur l'Indien (Quebec 1974) "Recorded in one take, “Monsieur L’Indien’s” haunting loops were created using an analog/mechanical hybrid: small motors rotated an arm equipped with magnets which triggered pre-programmed sensors featuring snares and bass sounds, like the Wurlitzer Sound Man. Péloquin’s contribution was a haunting spoken-word piece about civilization slowly taking over First Nations by building high voltage electric lines around Monsieur l’Indien’s house. It was a slap in the face of Québec’s government, which had nationalized hydroelectricity some ten years earlier. “Frontiers are the hemorrhoids around a nationalist rash,” says Péloquin." The instrument was called a "Sauvageau machine".  The Emporium - I'm So Glad/Rain/I Dig Rock and Roll Music (1970) The Tremeloes - Yellow River (1970) Traffic - Paper Sun (1967) I love this song. Always did. Steve Winwood was and is amazing. This was Traffic's first single.  Waiting For The Sun - Waiting For the Sun (1978) Golden Half (ゴールデン・ハーフ) - 24,000 Kisses (1972) Wikipedia: Golden Half (Gōruden Hāfu) was an early 1970s J-pop band made up of 5 hafu members including Maria Mori, Eva Mary and Luna Takamura. Golden Half was promoted by Watanabe Productions and was composed in September 1970 to sing and go-go dance on the Fuji TV show BEAT POP. They often sang western pop songs in Japanese and split in 1974. The band appeared in the nightclub scenes in Yasuharu Hasebe's Stray Cat Rock: Sex Hunter where they performed their hit song Kiiroi Sakuranbo ("Yellow Cherry"). WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE THEIR PERFORMANCE???? As my son would say, this song slaps.  WOULD YOU LIKE TO SEE THE TRAILER???? Trust me. You both do.  Coalkitchen - Keep On Pushin (1977) Listen to the "pushin'" and you'll know it instantly as the hook in the Salt-n-Pepa song to come out years later. Those rap producers were no fools. Thieves. But not fools.  Love - Walk Right In (1974) Yes, this is the same Arthur Lee band from psychedelia's heyday. Well, the same brand. Just totally different musicians.  Charles Wilp - Werbung als Kunst - Afri Cola Werbung (1968) Another video you HAVE to see.  "Sexy-mini-super-flower-pop-op-cola - everything is in Afri-Cola... " Famous models from the 1960s such as Marianne Faithfull, Amanda Lear, Donna Summer, Marsha Hunt [Ed: whom I have featured on this show many times - she had Mick Jagger's baby...] were depicted behind a pane of glass with ice crystals on advertising motifs for the rap-like slogan. According to Wilps, the idea for this arose during a visit to the Marshall Space Center in Huntsville (Alabama), where the Saturn V rocket was built at the time: The frozen, liquid oxygen stored in the workshop led to the formation of ice flowers on the windows of the moving cabins, behind the employees had hung pin-up photos of the 1960s beauties. Project 122 Featuring Charlie Green - Bus Stop (Electric Slide) (1990)  Odyssey 5 ‎– Everybody's Complaining (1974) Speed Glue Shinki - Calm Down (1972) Springbok - Night Fever (1978) A South African recording in the spirit of "Now That's What I Call Music", but it predated it. Except none of these recordings are by the original artists. They're cheap knockoffs.  The Christopher Hayes Movement - Tribute To Jimi (1970) Marsha Hunt's 22 - Medusa (1973) The Equals - Black Skin Blue Eyed Boys (1970) Written by Eddie Grant, who, as POACA recall, had a hit with "Electric Avenue".  The Piglets - Johnny Reggae (1971) Written, produced, and directed by Jonathan King, a relatively big deal in the UK (he came up with the "Ooga Chacka" intro to "Hooked On A Feeling" which was the hook for the US hit by Blue Swede) but in the US his only hit was "Everyone's Gone To The Moon" in 1967. He was another version of Kim Fowley, ever-teetering on the edge of an entire era without actually making any sort of big artistic difference.  The Surfers - Windsurfin' (1978) It takes about 16 years for a trend to make it from the US to Sweden, I guess.  The Wildweeds - I'm Dreaming (1968) Cadet Concept was the same label that featured Rotary Connection.  Tony Fabbri - Tony The Cool Casanova (197?) I can find very little information on this guy, but I like this song for some reason.  C.W. McCall - Kidnap America (1980) C.W. McCall was a character created by musician Billy Dale, for his advertising agency. The character was created for and first appeared in a commercial for Old Home Bread. Then, with producer Chip Davis, later to be famous for Mannheim Steamroller, he recorded a smash hit in the '70s with their CB/Trucker song, Convoy. This particular song was recorded in response to the hostage crisis in Iran from the previous year. Its effect remains to be fully measured.  Moon Blood - Come Out Of Her (1970) Patrice Manget/Blue Gene Tyranny - Condom Sense (1981) Title song to a safe sex education film from 1981. The Residents - Loss of Innocence (1980) My second favorite Residents song. This album featured 40 minute-long songs. The album featured guest singers like Andy Partridge of XTC, Lene Lovich, and David Byrne of Talking Heads. Yes, THAT David Byrne.  Amusement parks are caked with sounds A solid hunk of meat A barker's sweat flings from his tongue His tattoo shines with heat A wary stranger stands and sways Enraptured by his stance Two-headed goats come stumbling by And give a troubled glance The barker looks into the eyes The stranger tries to bend The barker swears to more delights For all who seek within The stranger enters canvas doors And smells the fresh-cut hay The barker points to Siamese twins The stranger looks away The eyes of horse-faced women Watch the few who wander through They sense the tension in the air And smell the sweet taboo A heart beats fast against a chest The stranger leaves the tent The waves of people drown the sounds Of loss of innocence  

Gather round, and you shall hear the Earful Gang sing The Ballad of the Rooftop Killer (with a-ccompaniment on live harmonica!) In these five minutes of film, Robert Underwood gets framed for murder (by Rudy Giuliani and George), Joe shows off some sick macros, and Birdie gets spooky. Meanwhile, we pick apart the controversy of Champion Fairewood Frolic (registered name or called name: which counts?), go over the day's news (the day being February 18, 1998), and send two emails to Chip Davis's publicists. And best of all: website now secure! (Also featuring popular segment "The Set-Up".)

In this episode, I had the pleasure to speak to THE artificial-only trout fishing pioneer in the Northeast Florida complex, Chip Davis. Aside from influencing many of the big trout anglers in that region, he's been a mentor to so many staples in those fisheries. From 52M's to Topwater, MirrOdine's to soft plastics, he shares some of his knowledge about how to fish these baits in heavy current for big water/structure trout! If you love throwing it back and learning about your trout fishing lineage, this episode is a must listen!

The pandemic has put a lot of pressure on both our health care system and the scientific process — exposing weaknesses that have long existed, but only now become impossible to ignore. On this episode, we take a look at some of the hard truths that COVID-19 is revealing, and what can be done about them. We hear stories about America’s problem with drug shortages, how COVID-19 is affecting the lives of young doctors, and the devastating reality of racial health disparities in New Orleans. Also heard on this week’s episode: President Donald Trump promoted hydroxychloroquine as a potential COVID-19 treatment in March, causing a surge in demand, and shortages for patients who needed it. But even before the pandemic, drug shortages have led to missed cancer treatments, and even deaths. Reporter Alan Yu talks with Rebecca Mosner, Ethan Daniels, Chip Davis from the Healthcare Distribution Alliance, Ryan Marable from Kroger and the National Pharmaceutical Association, Erin Fox from University of Utah Health, Rena Conti from the Boston University Questrom School of Business, Anne Pritchett from the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturers of America. Racial health disparities exist across the country — but in New Orleans, recently, ProPublica has found they led to the deaths of elderly Black patients who were sent home to die after contracting COVID-19. We talk with the investigative reporters behind that story, Annie Waldman and Joshua Kaplan. NYU medical ethicist Art Caplan talks about the importance of a slow and deliberate process in scientific research, even when the pressure for breakthroughs is great.

En plena pandemia Willie Nelson ha cumplido 87 años como un ejemplo de supervivencia… y de muchas cosas más. Entre ellas encontramos un romanticismo inherente al arquetipo del cowboy que se refleja en “We Are the Cowboys", uno de los temas clave de su último álbum First Rose of Spring. La canción se debe a su amigo Billy Joe Shaver, que resucitó en 1981 ese espíritu inquieto que busca su próxima aventura y que señalaba a los vaqueros como unos héroes que luchan contra las injusticias cotidianas. Willie ya grabó "We Are the Cowboys" con Shaver, Waylon Jennings y Kris Kristofferson en el álbum Honky Tonk Heroes de 2000, como un remedo de los Highwaymen. Como Willie es incapaz de estar inactivo, lanzará el próximo 15 de septiembre Me and Sister Bobbie: True Tales of the Family Band, un libro de memorias junto a su hermana mayor. Con ella también está trabajando en un libro infantil que se publicará en otoño de 2021 un libro ilustrado, titulado Sister, Brother, Family: Our Childhood in Music. Durante los últimos dos veranos, la serie de televisión Yellowstone, que protagoniza Kevin Costner, nos ha dejado una banda sonora que ha dado cobijo a varios artistas independientes de la música de raíces, atrayendo a nuevos seguidores que no se hubieran fijado en ello, pero que ahora han abierto los oídos a estas propuestas sonoras. El pasado domingo fue el debut de la tercera temporada de Yellowstone y su apuesta musical no difirió mucho de lo que ya habíamos escuchado hace casi un año en el programa. Desde Ryan Bingham, que sigue en el papel de Walker, Tyler Childers, Jason Isbell, Whitey Morgan, Whiskey Myers (que dieron el salto definitivo gracias a la serie), Blackberry Smoke (los grandes beneficiados de la segunda temporada), The Steel Woods, Turnpike Troubadours o dejan más que claro que una aparición en Yellowstone no es un beneficio hipotético. El tejano Taylor Sheridan, que ya había dejado su sello con Sons of Anarchy y Comanchería, ha sido capaz de dar continuación a una historia que tiene mucho que ver con el Oeste Americano contemporáneo, revitalizando su espíritu, su tradición y su importancia real en el presente. Para comentar la parte cinematográfica de la serie se supone que hay especialistas, pero en cuanto a su música no podemos por menos que estar muy satisfechos con la selección de canciones que el pasado domingo hicieron palpitar a ese primer capítulo. Empezamos recordando que hace 10 años, The SteelDrivers publicaban su segundo álbum, Reckless, con Chris Stapleton aún como miembro de la formación. Unos meses antes, el músico de Kentucky había anunciado que dejaba el grupo para dedicarse a la familia. En 2015 debutó en solitario con Traveller. Curiosamente, “Good Corn Liquor” fue la única canción que en aquel 2010 no compusieron el binomio fundamental de la banda, el que formaron Mike Henderson y Chris Stapleton. Se trata de una canción en la que intervino Ronnie Bowman junto a Stapleton, por entonces el líder de la formación. Bowman fue miembro de la Lonesome River Band junto a Dan Tyminski (después en Union Station), estuvo con Band of Ruhks y ha recorrido la escena del bluegrass como uno de sus pilares fundamentales de su desarrollo. Como álbum, Adobe Sessions supuso un paso más en la credibilidad que Cody Jinks se ha ganado desde su debut. El artista tejano de Fort Worth se mueve en sintonía con artistas como Sturgill Simpson, Jamey Johnson, Chris Stapleton, Ryan Bingham o Whitey Morgan, conectando con una audiencia que entiende a la perfección aquello que les cuenta porque le consideran un outlaw, como ellos mismos. De aquel cuarto registro de su carrera al que dio título el haber sido grabado en una pequeña habitación de adobe del Sonic Ranch en Tornillo, Texas, “Mamma Song” ha sido el tema escogido para formar parte de la banda sonora de ese primer capítulo, un ejemplo evidente de la personalidad artística del músico y del sentido que la cinta tiene en sí misma. Hace cinco años, Colter Wall editó un EP de siete canciones llamado Imaginary Appalachia en el que colaboraron The Dead South, Regina y Belle Plaine. Esta última, cantante y compositora de Fosston, en Saskatchewan, con cerca de 45 habitantes, cantó junto a su paisano en “Caroline”, que ahora Kevin Costner eligió para cerrar musicalmente el primer capítulo de la tercera temporada de Yellowstone, estrenado el pasado fin de semana. Después de haber sido uno de los referentes del folk canadiense, gracias a ese impecable dúo llamado Ian & Sylvia. Gracias a eso y a los royalties por la grabación que Neil Young hizo de su composición "Four Strong Winds", Ian Tyson es propietario del T-Bar-Y, un rancho situado cerca de High River, en la provincia de Alberta. Siendo un veinteañero y convaleciente de sus heridas como jinete de rodeo, Ian Tyson empezó a dedicarse a la música. A comienzos de los 70, tras separarse personal y profesionalmente de Sylvia Fricker se centró en el country, con grabaciones repletas de la imaginería y la mitología de la vida del cowboy como temática fundamental. Su álbum de 1986 Cowboyography es uno de los que mejor lo reflejan, con grandes canciones del estilo de “Rockies Turn Rose”. Si en este siglo XXI queremos seguir moviéndonos en los terrenos de los cowboys, como pretendemos hacer en el programa de hoy, no podemos dejar de lado la figura de Charley Crockett, que ha decidido cancelar todas sus actuaciones previstas hasta nuevo aviso. Tras someterse a una operación a corazón abierto a comienzos del pasado 2019, poco antes de visitarnos en una gira de conciertos inolvidable, no ha querido que ni él, ni su banda, ni sus seguidores puedan estar en peligro por la Covid-19. En un comunicado, el músico de San Benito ha hecho referencia al aumento significativo de infectados, pide disculpas y, sobre todo, pide a la gente que cuide. Por suerte, el último día del próximo mes de julio, Charley Crockett lanzará su nuevo álbum, Welcome To Hard Times, cuyo tema central es un recorrido por los paisajes del Far West, manteniendo el equilibrio entre country clásico, y ciertas pinceladas de spaghetti western. Remitirnos a un veterano como Don Edwards es recobrar el espíritu saludable del lejano Oeste. Creció escuchando la colección de discos de 78 revoluciones de su padre que incluían desde Bach y Mozart a las canciones de cowboys. Se convirtió en un músico autodidacta que se ejercitó en el rodeo y trabajó en un buen número de ranchos de Texas y Nuevo México durante sus años juveniles, influido por los westerns de serie B. En 1964 grabó su primer álbum y desde entonces ha mantenido ese espíritu, siendo dueño, incluso, de uno de los 100 bares más famosos de América, el White Elephant Saloon de Fort Worth. Gracias a Michael Martin Murphey, Don Edwards obtuvo una parte importante del reconocimiento que siempre ha merecido, con varios de sus trabajos guardados en los Archivos Folklóricos de la Librería del Congreso y habiendo recibido el premio Wrangler de la National Cowboy Hall Of Fame por su labor en pro de la música tradicional del Oeste. “The Cowboy’s Song” pertenece a su álbum Songs Of The Trail, siendo muy posiblemente una de las mejores canciones contemporáneas de la más pura tradición de las de vaqueros. La compuso Roy Robison, que trabajaba para la Murray Brothers Land y la Cattle Company de Forth Worth, en Texas. Michael Martin Murphey inauguró su West Fest inspirado por los espectáculos de Buffalo Bill, recorriendo anualmente distintas localidades de los estados de Nuevo México, Colorado y Texas, con la idea de preservar y perpetuar el espíritu del Oeste. En 1990 publicó un trabajo antológico sobre esa herencia musical titulado Cowboy Songs, donde se recogían las viejas canciones que su tío y su abuelo le enseñaron de pequeño en el Sky Ranch de Lewisville, Texas. Al fin y al cabo, es la música de su gente, su tierra, su cultura y su propia vida. En la mitad de 1907, un poema de Badger Clark titulado “A Border Affair” era impreso en el Pacific Monthly. Un cowboy de Arizona llamado Bill Simon le puso música y la canción entró dentro de la tradición oral como “Spanish Is The Lovin’ Tongue” que Michael Martin Murphey revivió de esta forma. Riddy Arman es una mujer nacida en Dixon, una pequeña localidad de poco más de 200 personas del Sanders County, en el estado de Montana, que mantiene el espíritu de los viejos pioneros y de manera muy especial la herencia musical familiar que le inspira canciones como “Spirits, Angels or Lies”, una maqueta grabada una noche del pasado mes de septiembre en Holy Cross, Nueva Orleans. Riddy es habitual del Cowboy Poetry Gathering que cada año desde 1985 se celebra en Elko, Nevada, y donde los ganaderos y cowboys se reúnen para compartir poemas sobre sus vidas y su trabajo. Tessy Lou Williams estuvo casi una década al frente de los Shotgun Stars, pero ha decidido que debía lanzarse en solitario y a pesar de que no parecen ser los mejores momentos, está superando el reto con un disco de título homónimo en el que despliega diferentes tonalidades del country clásico en Willow Creek, una localidad de alrededor de 210 habitantes, también en el estado de Montana, con el respeto a la tradición que le inculcaron sus padres, también músicos. Tras su paso por la tejana Austin ha terminado en Nashville, saltando las barreras de una industria nada respetuosa con las raíces, algo que no ha influido en absoluto de Tessy, que deja muestras de su poderío con temas del calibre de "Someone Lonely", una balada adornada por el Steel guitar de Mike Johnson. Su debut supone uno de los más apasionantes activos del presente de la country music. Bien podríamos decir que otra faceta de los cowboys tiene que ver con aquellos que cabalgan sobre 18 ruedas. Y hoy también es un buen día para recordar a los camioneros, sabiendo, además, que tenemos el privilegio de contar con un buen puñado de ellos como oyentes de TOMA UNO. Pues hoy, en la despedida del programa, queremos celebrar que en esta misma fecha de 1978 se estrenaba la película Convoy, protagonizada por Kris Kristofferson (en el papel de "Rubber Duck") y Ali McGraw (Melissa). Aquella canción había sido un enorme éxito en las listas de country y de pop gracias a C.W. McCall. Esta es la versión adaptada para la película de “Convoy”, que el director de una agencia de publicidad llamado Bill Fries llevó al éxito en 1976, asumiendo la identidad de C.W. McCall y grabando aquella canción escrita junto a Chip Davis en la jerga de las Citizen Band Radios (CB). Estas, introducidas en Estados Unidos en 1958, han sido la forma de comunicación que ha crecido más rápidamente desde que Graham Bell inventó el teléfono. En Junio de 1974, Bill Fries estaba escuchando su CB mientras conducía su jeep. Aquello le inspiró el texto de "Convoy", escrito de tal forma que una persona no familiarizada con la jerga creería que se trata de una lengua no inglesa. "Convoy" llegó al primer lugar de las listas de country en un mes y a las de pop en cinco semanas, vendiendo más de siete millones de copias. Aquel tema sentó las bases para el film del mismo título que protagonizaron Kris Kristofferson y Ali McGraw en el 78. Escuchar audio

Arguably the greatest prep school lacrosse coach of all time, Coach Chip Davis has been the Head Coach of Boy's Varsity Lacrosse at Deerfield Academy in Massachusetts for 30 years, where he has won 13 Western New England championships.

Chip Davis - Hymn 544 - Wake, Awake, For Night is Flying: vv. 1 & 2 - Matthew 25: 1-13: “Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. But while the bride-groom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. “And at midnight a cry was heard: ‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’ Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said to the wise, “Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ But the wise answered, saying, “No, lest there should not be enough for us and you; but go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.’ And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding; and the door was shut. “Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’But he answered and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ “Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming. - Devotion - Prayer - Hymn 544 - Wake, Awake, For Night is Flying: vv. 3 - Blessing - Postlude: Largo from Winter Antonio Vivaldi Service Participants: Chaplain Don Moldstad (Preacher), Rev.

C.W. McCall had a surprise No. 1 hit in 1976. But he was actually an ad executive playing the character of a country singer. Sound Opinions producer Evan Chung tells the strange story of how “Convoy” became a cultural phenomenon. He speaks with the songwriters behind “Convoy” – ad executive-turned-lyricist/vocalist Bill Fries and composer Chip Davis (later of Mannheim Steamroller fame) – who reveal the origins of C.W. McCall in a series of Nebraska bread commercials. Like the song “Convoy” itself, it’s an odd, rollicking tale that takes many surprising turns.

As it happens to all Peckinpah protagonists, death comes to Rubber Duck. But the Konvoy Krew are alive and well; smashing, crashing, and analyzing the death of Duck at the hands of Lyle, the Texas governor, greenies, and purploids. Some fun on-air forum registration, some misplaced CDs, but mostly an embarrassment of analysis―was it correct for the Texas National Guard soldiers to run directly at their own machine gun? Would sand have been better? Let us be the judge! Steady progress towards finishing a Chip Davis email, challenging non-linear literature is explored in a plus-sized Pageful of Convoy segment, and special notes by "St Louis Dump Trucks". He lets us know what ol' Ernie Borgnine had to say about Fish Costumes, and tells about the director's cut of Convoy THE ESTABLISHMENT doesn't want you to know about.

Sometimes what makes a business interesting is not so much what it does as much as how it does it. Today, the internet and mobile platforms make it possible to do business in all sorts of new ways. Then again, the digital era has also made it possible for savvy entrepreneurs to improve on age old business models. Like the barter economy. And come up with something better. Stephanie s guests on Out to Lunch exemplify those trends. Chip Davis is president and CEO of the Trade Authority. It s a Baton Rouge organization that is almost its own country with its own currency The TRade Authority supplies software, technical services and know how to barter exchanges. Chip knows something about this. He and 12 other partners founded the very successful Partners One Exchange in Baton Rouge in 2000. In the years since, Trade Authority has grown to 650 members, who spend trade dollars backed by goods and services amongst themselves on the exchange. The success of Partners One is what prompted Chip several years ago to create the Trade Authority, adn spread it across the country. Warren Sager is a founding board member of the Trade Exchange and the board chairman of Partners One. Warren also has a thriving internet retail business Internet Retail Connection which operates several different internet retail sites out of Warrne s spare bedroom and had revenues last year of 3 million dollars. Among the sites under the Internet Retail Connection umbrella is the company s flagship, Knife Depot.com, which carries more than 10 thousand knives and is the largest knife retailer on the internet. Warren also owns Hybrid Racing.com, the only source in the world for proprietary designed auto engine parts for Hondas and Acuras that allow you to turn your HOnfa into a modified race car.
