There's mayhem in the world and we're talking about it!Like a bat out of hell we go from war (oops- the "special operation") in Ukraine to war in Israel and Palestine to student protests, then segue (in our inimitable style) into dwarves and Larry David, with a birthday shout out to our old buddy Ryan Dawes, a hey ho to Heart To Gold and Why Not, and a happy landing on cows, horses and goats.

It's taken just over six months to happen: host Kailey Jane Hawkins' Summerfolk wristband finally fell off this week! Take heart -- there are only a few short months until she'll get a new one at Summerfolk 49! This week's show has got a little bit of everything to get you excited for the upcoming music season: tunes from Summerfolk alumni, artists playing music in and around our area this summer, and music "just because". Featuring tracks by the Good Lovelies, Bruce Cockburn, Lennie Gallant, William Prince, Esther's Family, Christine Lavin, Union Duke, Wendi Hunter, John Prine, Old Man Luedecke, Eve Goldberg, Amanda Rheaume, Joe Brown and Martin Cooper!

If you love a good title, then you've come to the right place! This is TGTBTM and we watched an unheard of, wacky-titled film from the 80's about feminists, uncharted Californian jungles, bloodshed, and cultural affinity. How did 'B-movies' come to be called that? Who is Christine Lavin, and why did she write a song about this film? And is tuna casserole an appropriate meal to make for dinner for strangers? Tune in this week to find out all this and more, but only on "The Good, The Bad, & The Movies"! P.S.

Sometimes we like to share great music because of a theme we're trying to build or a show we're looking to promote, but sometimes it's fun to share great music "just because"! This is one of those shows -- join host Kailey Jane Hawkins as she shares a little of this, a little of that, and offers another HUGE welcome to our new host Lloyd Lemon who has his first show NEXT WEEK! Catch it all here!

Harry and Rafe tackle the questions of how to deal with being apart from those you love.  Spurred by the song Yonder Blue by Christine Lavin (youtube video here ), the Bufnaglers discuss long distance communication and the pluses and minuses of text messages, (video) phone calls, and good old fashioned letters.In the end, they agree that staying in touch is absolutely necessary and that more frequent and instantaneous are more fun in the short run, but for posterity's sake, they come back to the old adage to write letters, for both yourself and for others.

A future folk star nearly chose a different college, but a temporary semester of SUNY Brockport classes persuaded Christine Lavin '73 that she had found the right place. This episode traverses Lavin's folk music career that captured the admiration of Emmy Award winning actor Jeff Daniels. This is Where Golden Eagles Soar, the SUNY Brockport alumni podcast co-hosted by alum Michael Doyle '80 and Alumni Director Kerry Gotham, and this is Christine Lavin '73, a New York City-based singer-songwriter and promoter of contemporary folk music.

Her latest solo album, her 25th, ON MY WAY TO HOOTERVILLE, includes 10 new songs and one re-worked song, "Ramblin' Waltz," a re-telling of her time in 1975 when she was an entourage driver for the first week of Bob Dylan's iconic "Rolling Thunder Revue" tour. HONORS AND AWARDS: In May 2021 Christine received an Honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts from her alma mater, the State University of New York at Brockport.

My guest today is North Carolina based singer and songwriter, Chuck Brodsky. I first heard about Chuck through our mutual friend, Jeff Lionz. Jeff, who knows about my undying love for baseball, sent me a couple of Chuck's CD's (The Baseball Ballads and The Baseball Ballads 2) in the mail. I put them both in my car and listened on drives for the next two months. I was taken by the stories and the amount of thought and research that was put into each lyric. In addition, all his songs seemed to give life to unsung heroes of the game. Rather than singing about any ol' no-hitter, Chuck sings about the one Dock Ellis threw on LSD. He also has a song called, "Death Row All-Stars," which is a tragic tale about how a warden in Rawlins, WY used baseball to set execution dates. Though he's a member of the Philadelphia Jewish Sports Hall of Fame and has 22 songs in the Baseball Hall of Fame Sound Recording Library, Chuck is far from being labeled a "baseball songwriter." He's written about the hollocaust, politics, and many other topics during his monumental career that spans over three decades. (now quoting form chuckbrodsky.com) Chuck and his songs have appeared in several films and on tv. His beloved Philadelphia Phillies featured an interview with him along with his song “Whitey & Harry” in the documentary “Richie Ashburn: A Baseball Life.” The 2003 Sony Pictures release “Radio” included a cameo by Chuck as well as his closing title track. “Moe Berg: The Song” appears in the PBS film “Jews and Baseball: An American Love Story” (2010). His music has been featured on ABC's Good Morning America, NPR's All Things Considered, Dr. Demento, ESPN, PBS, and by NFL Films. Kathy Mattea's recording of Chuck's song “We Are Each Other's Angels” appears in the film “Dear Mr. Goodlife” (1998). The African Children's Choir Of Uganda also recorded the song on their "Love Is A Journey" CD. “Blow ‘em Away” has been recorded by David Wilcox and many others, and also appears on the Christine Lavin produced “Laugh Tracks.” Sports Illustrated placed "The Ballad Of Eddie Klepp" among the 25 Greatest Songs About Sports of All–Time. In April of 2019 Chuck was inducted into the Philadelphia Jewish Sports Hall Of Fame for his Baseball songwriting. (end quote from chuckbrodsky.com) Special shoutout to Kerrville Folk Festival!

Christine Lavin once said, "I think she’s influenced a lot of people who don’t even know her name." This is episode 13 of Caffe Lena: 60 Years of Song. Thank you to Sarah at the Caffe for compiling the list of artists and songs. Folk singer, Rosalie Sorrels first came to widespread attention at the 1966 Newport Folk Festival, where she performed traditional songs from her native state of Idaho, and Utah, where she lived with her family. She soon began writing her own material, about life on the road, her marital difficulties and the challenges of raising children. She then broadened her scope to include social issues like prison reform, suicide prevention and women’s rights. Rosalie Sorrels was first brought to Caffè Lena by the great Hedy West. Rosalie and Lena would become closest friends over many years. She and her five children stayed with Lena often for months on end and establishing a "second home" in Saratoga Springs. Nellie McKay is one of those renaissance artists who can do

Steve and Harry read letters from listeners. Harry demands a salary and they compare living in NY or LA. They also sing "Bully of the Town".Two great performers are featured. "Amoeba Hop" by Christine Lavin and "College" from the great standup Emo Philips.

According to Harry, everyone should change their name to match their profession. A farmer should be Barney, a fireman- Bernie, a telephone operator- Gabby, and a comedian- Josh. Well, you get the idea. He has hundreds of them. Plus, Christine Lavin is Steve's guest singing about a great big bug in the bathroom, and Steve plays Piano Roll Blues on the...duh...piano.

New Jersey based Mara Levine is a fabulous singer, and a great interpreter of other people’s songs. She’s just released a lovely third album “Facets Of Folk” the follow up to “Jewels and Harmony” (2013) and her debut “Mara’s Gems” (2009) which were both very well-received. A very well curated collection, Facets of Folk features 13 tracks that showcase various different faces of folk music, often with a strong social conscience, and including favourites from Gordon Lightfoot, Paul Simon, Leonard Cohen and Christine Lavin alongside some new discoveries from contemporary songwriters. Mara Levine tours across the US, often with Gathering Time (Stuart Markus, Hillary Foxsong, and Gerry McKeveny). She also performs as a duo with both Terry Kitchen, and Caroline Cutroneo. Mara Levine sat down with Folk Roots Radio at the 2018 Folk Music Ontario conference to chat about her music, and shared a live version of Tommy Sands “Daughters and Sons”, which appears on the new album. For more information visit maralevine.com. Music: Mara Levine “You Reap What You Sow” from “Facets of Folk” (2019, Self), “Daughters and Sons” (live) and “By My Silence” from “Facets of Folk” (2019, Self).

Sonoma’s Transcendence Theatre Company opened its seventh season of “Broadway Under the Stars” in Jack London State Park with Stairway to Paradise, the first of four staged concert events scheduled this year. The company takes performers with Broadway, touring company, film and television experience and creates an original themed musical revue around them. This year’s theme is ‘Every Moment Counts’ and director/choreographer Tony Gonzalez has designed 20+ production numbers full of memorable moments. Along with Broadway show tunes, the Transcendence play list includes a mix of recent and past pop hits, classic rock, and specialty numbers. They’re all done ‘Broadway style’ and occasionally with a twist. It often works well, but sometimes it doesn’t. The first act ran the gamut from numbers from Sunday in the Park with George, South Pacific, The Wiz, and Victor/Victoria to “Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard” and “Feelin’ Groovy” by Paul Simon. Highlights included a recreation of the famous Judy Garland/Barbra Streisand duet of “Get Happy/Happy Days are Here Again” with Courtney Markowitz and Shaleah Adkisson, Christine Lavin’s popular “Air Conditioner” song, also done by Adkisson with Tim Roller, and a large-scale production number of “Blue Skies” with the entire company led by Joey Khoury singing and dancing to the Irving Berlin classic. In an amusing bit that allowed the performers (and audience) a break, the cast played a round of ‘Transcendence Family Feud’ with contestants pulled from the crowd. The act ended on a local note with a performance of “Everything”, a tribute song written by Sonoma County songwriters Mark Beynon and Joe Label and the Transcendence version of “Oklahoma!” which morphed the Rogers and Hammerstein classic into “Oh, Sonoma!” The second act included numbers from Cabaret, Into the Woods, and The Sound of Music mixed with Justin Timberlake, Van Halen and, in the evening’s one clear misstep, Don McLean’s “American Pie”. Sorry guys, but perky, Cheshire cat-like smiling performers singing “This’ll be the day that I die” just doesn’t work for me. It actually came off a little creepy. Things snapped back with a jaunty Michael Linden performing Drew Gasparini’s “A Little Bit” and large-scale numbers with Timberlake’s “Can’t Stop the Feeling” and Van Halen’s “Right Now” before concluding with “Finale B’ from Rent. Dress in layers, pack a picnic, indulge in some wine or food purchased from local food trucks and vintners serving on-site, then sit back and enjoy a unique north bay entertainment experience. 'Stairway to Paradise' runs Friday through Sunday through July 1 at Jack London State Historic Park in Glen Ellen. Doors open for picnicking at 5pm; the show starts at 7:30pm.

Christine Lavin is Steve's guest again. She sings a song about not being able to find her glasses. Sound familiar? Also, Harry's three long lost brothers have taken the inheritance from their uncle and bought a hat factory. Steve doubts it'll be a successful. I mean, after all, they are dummies. Also, Steve and Harry sing an old song from 1893, "I've been to Gay Paree."

Steve's guest, Christine Lavin is performing her classic, "Bald Headed Men". Harry decides to blindfold himself to enhance his other senses. You can imagine what happens. Harry also sings, "Yes Sir, That's My Baby" with Steve playing a wicked piano accompaniment.

Nancy Moran was with us to talk about artist booking. As the co-founder of Azalea Music, she is a mentor to artists helping them pave the way for their music career. Getting a late start in music and having worked her way through struggles hasn’t slowed Nancy down. She has spent a great deal of time helping with artist booking and showing artists how to get their music out to the world. She also shows artists how to book more and better gigs. Her and her husband, Fett, are hosts to a women-only clinic called Empowering Women in Audio where they show female artists all the things they need to know in order to create great sounding music.

Camille West, Steve's guest, is often compared to Christine Lavin. She's funny. Very funny. The song featured, that Camille wrote, is "The Nervous Wreck Of The Edna Fitzgerald". As she puts it, it's a Yuppie sea shanty. The Free Harry movement has started! Seems some folks are not happy with how Steve treats his dummy and are mounting a protest. Despite Steve's own protestations, he can't convince people that Harry is just...well, a dummy. Also featured is Steve's original "Cupcake Song." It's basically a list of the 52 ingredients Steve once found on the label of some cupcakes he was buying at the supermarket. It's a true story. I dare you to recognize five of them. For instance, what's carboxy methyl cellulose?

The charming and funny, Christine Lavin is Steve's guest on the podcast. She's talking about her career before being a singer songwriter and sings an original song about finding a puppy on the subway tracks in New York. Or is it? The general store is open and it's so big it makes a Super Walmart look like a little mom and pop shop. It has everything, and I mean everything. You want to teach a chicken to play oboe? They have a book on how to do it. You wanna send your kid to the moon? They have the rocket.

Join us this week as we welcome Folk Pop music singer songwriter, Hayley Reardon. Noted for her thoughtful, vivid songwriting and engaging stage performance, Hayley Reardon has spent the past six years sharing the stage with acts like Tom Rush, Peter Yarrow, Buskin & Batteau, Christine Lavin, and opening for the likes of Lori McKenna, Mark Erelli, and Catie Curtis. She has been selected for official showcases at Folk Alliance International and New England Regional Folk Alliance, as well as The Boston Folk Festival, New York Songwriter’s Circle, and Falcon Ridge Folk Festival Emerging Artist Showcase. In 2012, The Boston Globe Magazine named her a Bostonian of the Year for both her music and her work to pair it with a message of teen empowerment. The feature article characterized her as "a confident, radiant teenage singer songwriter who is helping to pen the next chapter of the Boston folk scene. With a voice that is distinctively rich and a contemplative sincerity in her songwriting, Reardon has far more in common with Patty Griffin or Lucinda Williams than many of today’s young pop singer/songwriters, boasting a lyrical and melodic weight far beyond her years. In exciting news for the fall of 2016, Hayley will be releasing her brand new album “Good" on October 28. We will talk to Hayley about her upcoming schedule, get a behind their scenes look at her music, feature her latest songs, and ask her to share her message for the troops. Please be sure to visit Hayley Reardon at http://www.hayleyreardon.com and spread the word. Fans are welcome to call in and speak live with her during the show (718) 766-4193. As always we will give shout outs to our deployed military listeners. Be sure to join us, 10/27/2016 at 8:30 PM EDT! Our message to the troops: WE do what we do, because YOU do what you do.
