Podcasts about Chuck Berry

Chuck Berry famously sung for Beethoven to roll over and make way for rock and roll. But coming up on the 100th anniversary of his birth, the SLSO will pay tribute to the St. Louis musical icon in a pair of concerts this weekend. STLPR's Jeremy Goodwin talks to some of the rockers who will be playing with the orchestra.

From marching snare in Wisconsin to playing The Producers on Broadway, his story is about hard work, timing, and versatility. In this conversation, Larry talks about his early days growing up in the Midwest, his years in drum corps, the Nashville country scene, and how he built a lasting career in New York City's theater world.Larry's been behind the drum kit for shows like The Producers, Jekyll and Hyde, Les Misérables, Wicked, and The Full Monty. He's also a respected educator and clinician whose experience bridges jazz, pop, and orchestral playing.This episode breaks down how he made the jump from the road to Broadway, what it takes to earn a chair, and why learning from others is one of the smartest moves a drummer can make.Key Moments and Topics Covered00:03 – Early Years in the MidwestLarry talks about growing up in Chicago, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. He shares how he started on trombone before switching to drums and getting his first kit — a red Slingerland jazz set from the 1960s.00:05 – Marching Band and Drum CorpsHe describes how marching band led him to drum corps, playing snare with the Blue Stars. Those years shaped his reading, discipline, and love of ensemble playing.00:09 – The High School Metal BandLarry formed a heavy-metal band called Fallen Angel, later Perfect Stranger, influenced by Motley Crüe, Poison, and Ozzy Osbourne. That mix of rock energy and groove became part of his foundation.00:10 – Discovering Studio LegendsHe recalls studying the session greats — Steve Gadd, Jeff Porcaro, Hal Blaine, and JR Robinson — and how copying their records taught him to listen, absorb, and reproduce other players' feel. That skill later helped him sub successfully on Broadway.00:13 – Choosing Music Over a “Backup Plan”Despite warnings from family about the risks of a music career, Larry stayed focused. A mentor told him, “If it's the thing you must do, then you have to do it.” That advice stuck.00:16 – University of Wisconsin–Eau ClaireHe studied jazz performance, percussion, and conducting, earning a Bachelor of Music degree. He credits conductor Robert Baca and professor Ron Keiser for turning Eau Claire into a respected jazz program.00:19 – Nashville YearsLarry moved to Nashville in the early 90s and toured with the country-comedy duo Pinkerton Bowden and later with country balladeer Doug Stone. He shares what life on the road was really like and why he eventually grew tired of touring.00:24 – The Call of New YorkAfter meeting jazz players on a cruise, he decided to explore Broadway. They told him his versatility would fit New York's theater scene. His first exposure to a pit was watching Ray Marchica play Damn Yankees — a life-changing moment.00:28 – Starting Over in NYCHe saved $10,000, moved to the city, and started sitting in on shows. Early on, he learned that “no one cares what you've done anywhere else — they only care what you've done in New York.” That lesson shaped how he built credibility.00:33 – Miss Saigon: The BreakthroughMichael Hinton gave Larry a shot at subbing the massive percussion book for Miss Saigon. The score had originally been written for three percussionists. Larry practiced daily for a month and nailed his first show — instantly building a reputation as someone who could handle the hardest gig in town.00:37 – From Subbing to a ChairLarry began subbing at Beauty and the Beast, Les Misérables, and other productions, eventually holding nine different sub books at once. His first full Broadway chair came with Jekyll and Hyde.00:42 – Landing The ProducersWhen Jekyll and Hyde closed, a referral led to an audition with legendary conductor Paul Gemignani for a new show. Although that production closed quickly, the connection opened doors. A few years later, Larry joined The Producers, which became a long-running hit.00:46 – Lessons on LongevityLarry emphasizes professionalism: showing up prepared, treating every sub date like an audition, and understanding that reliability and attitude matter as much as chops. Every gig, even the short-lived ones, builds your reputation.00:48 – Teaching and Passing It OnHe now teaches drummers how to approach theater work with discipline and respect for the craft — reading, listening, blending, and adapting.Key Takeaways* Learning by listening prepares you for the realities of Broadway.* Every show, even a short run, can lead to future work.* Versatility is a drummer's greatest asset — orchestral, rock, jazz, and pop all show up in modern theater books.* Reputation is everything. People hire musicians who make their lives easier.* Keep the joy. The best drummers never lose that excitement they had as kids hitting their first kit.Connect with Larry LelliWebsite: larrylelli.comInstagram: @larrylelliAbout Broadway Drumming 101Broadway Drumming 101 is the leading platform for drummers and musicians working in theater.

I feel like I see more acutely than ever into the backing track of human experience. There is the "outside" of how our lives are going within givens and events, but then there is the "backing track" -- the enabling part, the staying part, the... well, the (kind of) Eternal Part. The two parts, the outside and the backing track, are separate. "Phosphorus" is a word one sometimes uses for this, but listening to an old Beach Boys song from 1973 brought it home so beautifully. You hear a number of "stanzas", and then (at least twice, maybe three times) a keyboard-driven bridge -- a melody that puts you right through the roof emotionally. It summons almost automatically the mood you'd want to have surrounding you when you are dying. Moreover, the voiced imperative at the end, "Sail on, sail on, sailor", is exactly what I need. I don't need someone to help me find 'new purpose', something to plant me in the now again, when my spirits are low. I need, as Meister Eckhart wrote in 1312, to experience the following: "If you are looking for God, go back to where you lost Him." To put that in slightly more horizontal terms -- tho' even its horizontal transcription is really Vertical -- "If you are looking for who you are meant to be, go back to where you really were yourself". Incidentally, that was probably not in connection with your career or your cause. It was more likely in connection with a certain someone. People sometimes think I'm overdoing it when I underline the centrality of romantic connection in life. I don't believe I am. The main reason one underlines that dimension is, well, ... popular music. It's not news to anyone reading this, that 97.5% of all rock songs, from the very beginning (i.e., Elvis and Bo Diddley and Chuck Berry and Link Wray and Joe Meek), concern romantic love. Not 65% or even 85%, but 97.5%. Think about that. I mean, really, let that sink in. Anyway, if you want to find God (i.e., your way forward, as opposed to your way backward -- to inertia, bitterness, and cascading negativity as the years go on), go back to... the song you remember from that time you first came out of yourself. Whether the person you were with when you first heard that song is alive or dead, present or out there (Moody Blues, 1988), that moment is eternal. It is still present. It is still your empirical guide to... the New You. Podcast 406 is dedicated to Sam Everette.

Este martes J.F. Leon ha ido al grano: 'Come together' de los Beatles es un plagio. En concreto, de la cancion 'You Can't Catch Me' de Chuck Berry, que los musicos de Liverpool ralentizaron, pero dejaron una frase practicamente igual. Esto desato un conflicto judicial entre representantes y discograficas que supuso un lio tremendo.

I originally sat down with Larry back on December 16, 2021, and since then, his career has kept growing in remarkable ways.Larry isn't just a veteran Broadway drummer—he's now also a Broadway producer.

His list of collaborations is just as impressive—Melissa Etheridge, Josh Groban, Audra McDonald, Patti LuPone, Bernadette Peters, Nick Jonas, Vanessa Williams, Jerry Lee Lewis, and even the New York Philharmonic.Larry is also a clinician with Yamaha Drums and Sabian Cymbals, and you can currently catch him performing in the Tony Award-winning hit Come From Away.In our conversation, we dug into:* Growing up in the Midwest playing in baton and drum corps* Touring with country star Doug Stone after moving to Nashville* How a jazz cruise changed his life and led him to New York City* Why subbing for Michael Hinton on Miss Saigon was his big break* Learning from legends like Paul Gemignani* How he approaches learning an entire Broadway showLarry's story is a masterclass in building a long, versatile career in music—and now he's added producing to his list of achievements.Stay tuned for the re-release of this edited Broadway Drumming 101 episode.

Los mal llamados "Clásicos" arrastran la pesada carga de haber durado más de lo que se esperaba y ser la música de las "Grandes Ocasiones” pero, sobre todo, de haber caído en manos de una “élite” envarada, rancia y empingorotada con frecuencia.Se olvida que hunden sus raíces en una civilización avanzada que construye un sofisticado lenguaje de cuyas costuras escapan canciones, melodias y armonías sublimes. Desde las bodegas de Bach, "Whiter Shade of Pale" de Gary Brooker, desde las de Chopin, "Jane B” de Gainsbourgh o desde las del Maestro Rodrigo "Aranjuez mon amour”. Quizás a muchos sorprenda saber que Elvis abría sus conciertos con Strauss y los cerraba con "Can t Help Falling in Love”, inspirada por “Plaisir d amour" de JP Egide (XVIII)."Roll over Beethoven” cantaba Chuck Berry a la llegada del Rock. No tan deprisa, amiguito.

Con “Dizzy.”, il musicista italiano Ghico Renzulli racconta la sua evoluzione artistica, l'amore per la musica strumentale, i rituali prima dei live e i progetti futuri tra sperimentazione e tradizione. Un artista in continua evoluzione: chi è Ghico Renzulli Ghico Renzulli, storico chitarrista italiano con oltre 45 anni di carriera, torna a far parlare di sé con il suo secondo album solista, “Dizzy.”. Dopo aver suonato per decenni con band come i FIBA, oggi porta avanti un percorso solista interamente dedicato alla musica strumentale. Una scelta audace e controcorrente che racconta l'anima di un artista instancabile e profondamente legato alla sua arte. “Dizzy.”: un disco che dà le vertigini “Dizzy.” – che in inglese significa "vertiginoso" – è un album che alterna dolcezza e potenza, generi musicali diversi, emozioni contrastanti. “Ci sono cambi di atmosfera, velocità, durezza”, racconta Renzulli. Il disco è un mix raffinato di rock, metal, blues, jazz, country, musica caraibica, frutto di decenni di esperienza. Non ci sono voci: tutto è affidato agli strumenti. E questo, per Ghico, è tutt'altro che semplice. “Fare musica strumentale è più difficile di quella cantata. Devi tenere l'ascoltatore incollato, solo con le note”, spiega. Ogni pezzo è pensato, arrangiato con cura, costruito per lasciare un segno duraturo. Il palco, la passione e... il sonno prima del live Nonostante la lunga carriera, la voglia di suonare dal vivo non si è mai spenta. Ghico è un musicista “vecchia scuola”, cresciuto con miti come Chuck Berry e B.B. King. “Io morirò sul palco”, afferma con convinzione. E prima di ogni esibizione ha un rituale particolare: dorme. Sì, hai letto bene: “Mi riposo un'oretta prima del live. Ci portavamo i letti anche durante i tour con i FIBA. Dormire è il mio modo per ricaricare corpo e mente”. A svegliarlo, spesso, litri di caffè portati dallo staff mezz'ora prima del concerto. L'incontro con il pubblico e i live di oggi “Il mio spettacolo non è da pogare, ma da ascoltare. È musica che va capita e sentita”, dice Ghico. Oggi i suoi concerti sono presentazioni live del progetto: performance di circa un'ora, seguite da un confronto diretto col pubblico. Un'esperienza più intima, profonda. Progetti futuri: tra voce e collaborazioni Anche se “Dizzy.” è ancora in promozione, Renzulli guarda già avanti. Sta lavorando a un nuovo disco che includerà brani cantati e collaborazioni, ispirato alla concezione musicale di Santana. “Non farò Santana, non ne sono capace, ma vorrei unire cantato e strumentale per creare qualcosa di nuovo”. La composizione è la sua vera vocazione. “Compongo ovunque: mentre dormo, in bagno, per strada. Registro tutto col cellulare. È il mio modo di vivere”.

Send us a textWendy Stonehenge stops by the show to discuss the Candy Whip's new EP, inspiration, Ai and more.******Oakland, CA-based CANDY WHIPS released their new covers EP MOONLIGHT via Josie Cotton's Kitten Robot Records On August 26th! The EP features classic tracks “Duke of Earl” (originally recorded by Gene Chandler), “Earth Angel” (The Penguins), and “Bad Boy” (Jive Bombers), among others, the EP Moonlight was inspired by both the post-punk and new wave bands of the late ‘70s/early ‘80s who in turn were inspired by the music of the ‘50s and early ‘60s. Another catalyst for Wendy's creative influence was also being inspired by Silicon Teens, which is an experimental project by producer and founder of Mute Records Daniel Miller from 1980, which infamously redid Chuck Berry songs into a synthesizer construct, Wendy Stonehenge set out to put his own angular spin on classic and iconic 1950s tracks, keeping the inherent structure of each song intact to keep them recognizable while giving them a fresh, modern edge. "I've always been a big oldies fan," says WENDY STONEHENGE of CANDY WHIPS about his new EP MOONLIGHT, which features reinterpretations of radio hits of the 1950s, including “Duke of Earl” (Gene Chandler), “Earth Angel” (The Penguins), and “Bad Boy” (Marty Wilde), among others. "When I was a kid, it was always on the radio. These days, oldies radio doesn't really exist so you have to actively seek it out." Due out August 26th, 2025, via Kitten Robot, the EP dusts off the radio hits of yore and polishes them with synths, vocal effects, and drum machines, buffing them with shiny, modern production. "My choice of tracks is more of an intentional thing. I've noticed that I'm particularly drawn to doo wop and old vocal groups." Already an established member of the well-known Northern California glam rock band Glitter Wizard, Wendy Stonehenge formed Candy Whips as a side project to dabble in music that didn't fit his other band. When live shows ground to a halt during the pandemic, he re-ignited the project in his home studio and transported Kraftwerk's roborock to Oakland, fusing the genres punk, electronic, and synthpop. Previously known for creating the critically-hailed gonzo cyberpunk of his 2021's debut LP Automaton, 2023's hypnotic A.L.T.C.H.B.S., and 2024's angular synth-pop album Artificial Melodies, which was released last year, MOONLIGHT is a refreshing and modernized take on classic tracks that are captivating yet intriguing to the ear.*****If you would like to contact the show about being a guest, please email us at Dauna@bettertopodcast.comUpcoming guests can be found: https://dmneedom.com/upcoming-guest Follow us on Social MediaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomIntro and Outro music compliments of Fast Suzi©2025 Better To...Podcast with D.

Usually, I feature drummers on this podcast, and we've had some incredible ones—plus music directors like Nate Patten and music coordinators like Michael Aarons and Michael Keller. But this time, I wanted to bring on someone I've known and played with for the past ten years, a true “Piano Man” and multi-instrumentalist who has made his mark on Broadway and beyond: Matthew Friedman.Matthew isn't just a pianist—he's a singer, a bandleader, a composer, and yes, even a drummer. He was “The Piano Man” in the national touring company of Movin' Out and has performed with the legendary Lords of 52nd Street, Billy Joel's original band. He's also been part of Broadway productions like Jersey Boys and Smokey Joe's Café, while leading his own group, Matthew Friedman & Stiletto.In this episode, we talk about:* His early start in music and the influences that shaped him.* How he made the leap from being an attorney to a full-time musician.* The highs and lows of touring life—from first-class gigs to rough bus-and-truck runs.* Stories from his time on Broadway, including connections to past podcast guest Jon Berger and future guest Joe Bergamini.* What it means to be more than just a player in the pit—how to lead, adapt, and thrive as a versatile instrumentalist.Matthew has great stories, big insights, and a unique perspective on what it takes to succeed in this business—not just as a drummer, but as a full-fledged musician and bandleader.Some clips of me playing a fun gig with him several years ago:Clayton Craddock founded Broadway Drumming 101, an in-depth online platform offering specialized mentorship and a carefully curated collection of resources tailored for aspiring and professional musicians.Clayton's Broadway and Off-Broadway credits include tick, tick…BOOM!, Altar Boyz, Memphis The Musical, Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill, Ain't Too Proud – The Life and Times of The Temptations, Cats: The Jellicle Ball, The Hippest Trip: The Soul Train Musical, and The Gospel at Colonus (featuring Kim Burrell).

Hay desvíos en abundancia y preguntas eternas:  ¿Fue el Jappening nuestro SNL? ¿Es el “No actuaron hoy” el invento más genial de la tele ochentera? ¿Qué era más sofisticado, Calzarte o la colonia Jean-Paul? ¿Qué rasgo conecta a Loreto Delpín con Chuck Berry? ¿Intensa Mente le copió a La Cabeza de Herman? ¿Quién censuraba a mano las enciclopedias bajo Pinochet? ¿Es el animé japonés de La isla del tesoro mejor que la novela? ¿Tener 17 años es una enfermedad que se pasa al cumplir 18? ¿La serie Fama era mejor que la película? ¿Cuánto le copió Yellowstone a Valle de pasiones? ¿Quién es más villano, Salo o Nestlé? ¿Si cruzamos un agujero negro nos vamos al cielo? ¿Qué hay que hacer para pedir un Manquehuito? ¿Alguien se informó sobre el límite de garantía estatal a los depósitos? ¿Manimal o Ultraman? ¿Artecrom o Mundocrom? ¿Sinanju o Gymkata? ¿Fuimos felices de chicos o sólo vimos demasiada televisión?

Each one I find reminds me of a small, battered transistor radio from my youth. It belonged to my father, and before that, probably my grandfather. The leather case was cracked, the antenna wobbled, and the dial drifted if you breathed on it wrong. But when I was sixteen, sprawled across my bedroom floor in that small town near Florence with homework scattered around me, this little machine was my portal to everything that mattered.Late at night, I'd start by chasing the latest hits and local shows on FM, but then I'd venture into the real adventure—tuning through the static on AM and shortwave frequencies. Voices would emerge from the electromagnetic soup—music from London, news from distant capitals, conversations in languages I couldn't understand but somehow felt. That radio gave me something I didn't even know I was missing: the profound sense of belonging to a world much bigger than my neighborhood, bigger than my small corner of Tuscany.What I didn't realize then—what I'm only now beginning to understand—is that I was holding the first smartphone in human history.Not literally, of course. But functionally? Sociologically? That transistor radio was the prototype for everything that followed: the first truly personal media device that rewired how young people related to the world, to each other, and to the adults trying to control both.But to understand why the transistor radio was so revolutionary, we need to trace radio's remarkable journey through the landscape of human communication—a journey that reveals patterns we're still living through today.When Radio Was the Family HearthBefore my little portable companion, radio was something entirely different. In the 1930s, radio was furniture—massive, wooden, commanding the living room like a shrine to shared experience. Families spent more than four hours a day listening together, with radio ownership reaching nearly 90 percent by 1940. From American theaters that wouldn't open until after "Amos 'n Andy" to British families gathered around their wireless sets, from RAI broadcasts bringing opera into Tuscan homes—entire communities synchronized their lives around these electromagnetic rituals.Radio didn't emerge in a media vacuum, though. It had to find its place alongside the dominant information medium of the era: newspapers. The relationship began as an unlikely alliance. In the early 1920s, newspapers weren't threatened by radio—they were actually radio's primary boosters, creating tie-ins with broadcasts and even owning stations. Detroit's WWJ was owned by The Detroit News, initially seen as "simply another press-supported community service."But then came the "Press-Radio War" of 1933-1935, one of the first great media conflicts of the modern age. Newspapers objected when radio began interrupting programs with breaking news, arguing that instant news delivery would diminish paper sales. The 1933 Biltmore Agreement tried to restrict radio to just two five-minute newscasts daily—an early attempt at what we might now recognize as media platform regulation.Sound familiar? The same tensions we see today between traditional media and digital platforms, between established gatekeepers and disruptive technologies, were playing out nearly a century ago. Rather than one medium destroying the other, they found ways to coexist and evolve—a pattern that would repeat again and again.By the mid-1950s, when the transistor was perfected, radio was ready for its next transformation.The Real Revolution Was Social, Not TechnicalThis is where my story begins, but it's also where radio's story reaches its most profound transformation. The transistor radio didn't just make radio portable—it fundamentally altered the social dynamics of media consumption and youth culture itself.Remember, radio had spent its first three decades as a communal experience. Parents controlled what the family heard and when. But transistor radios shattered this control structure completely, arriving at precisely the right cultural moment. The post-WWII baby boom had created an unprecedented youth population with disposable income, and rock and roll was exploding into mainstream culture—music that adults often disapproved of, music that spoke directly to teenage rebellion and independence.For the first time in human history, young people had private, personal access to media. They could take their music to bedrooms, to beaches, anywhere adults weren't monitoring. They could tune into stations playing Chuck Berry, Elvis, and Little Richard without parental oversight—and in many parts of Europe, they could discover the rebellious thrill of pirate radio stations broadcasting rock and roll from ships anchored just outside territorial waters, defying government regulations and cultural gatekeepers alike. The transistor radio became the soundtrack of teenage autonomy, the device that let youth culture define itself on its own terms.The timing created a perfect storm: pocket-sized technology collided with a new musical rebellion, creating the first "personal media bubble" in human history—and the first generation to grow up with truly private access to the cultural forces shaping their identity.The parallels to today's smartphone revolution are impossible to ignore. Both devices delivered the same fundamental promise: the ability to carry your entire media universe with you, to access information and entertainment on your terms, to connect with communities beyond your immediate physical environment.But there's something we've lost in translation from analog to digital. My generation with transistor radios had to work for connection. We had to hunt through static, tune carefully, wait patiently for distant signals to emerge from electromagnetic chaos. We learned to listen—really listen—because finding something worthwhile required skill, patience, and analog intuition.This wasn't inconvenience; it was meaning-making. The harder you worked to find something, the more it mattered when you found it. The more skilled you became at navigating radio's complex landscape, the richer your discoveries became.What the Transistor Radio Taught Us About TomorrowRadio's evolution illustrates a crucial principle that applies directly to our current digital transformation: technologies don't replace each other—they find new ways to matter. Printing presses didn't become obsolete when radio arrived. Radio adapted when television emerged. Today, radio lives on in podcasts, streaming services, internet radio—the format transformed, but the essential human need it serves persists.When I was sixteen, lying on that bedroom floor with my father's radio pressed to my ear, I was doing exactly what teenagers do today with their smartphones: using technology to construct identity, to explore possibilities, to imagine myself into larger narratives.The medium has changed; the human impulse remains constant. The transistor radio taught me that technology's real power isn't in its specifications or capabilities—it's in how it reshapes the fundamental social relationships that define our lives.Every device that promises connection is really promising transformation: not just of how we communicate, but of who we become through that communication. The transistor radio was revolutionary not because it was smaller or more efficient than tube radios, but because it created new forms of human agency and autonomy.Perhaps that's the most important lesson for our current moment of digital transformation. As we worry about AI replacing human creativity, social media destroying real connection, or smartphones making us antisocial, radio's history suggests a different possibility: technologies tend to find their proper place in the ecosystem of human needs, augmenting rather than replacing what came before.As Marshall McLuhan understood, "the medium is the message"—to truly understand what's happening to us in this digital age, we need to understand the media themselves, not just the content they carry. And that's exactly the message I'll keep exploring in future newsletters—going deeper into how we can understand the media to understand the messages, and what that means for our hybrid analog-digital future.The frequency is still there, waiting. You just have to know how to tune in.__________ End of transmission.

Originally posted December 2021In this episode of Broadway Drumming 101, I sit down with Dena Tauriello, the drummer for Little Shop of Horrors at the Westside Theatre. From her first sparkle kit inspired by Karen Carpenter to a career that's taken her from rock arenas to Broadway pits, Dena shares a powerful story about perseverance, adaptability, and passion.Dena spent nearly two decades with the all-female rock band Antigone Rising, logging more than 260 shows a year, signing with Lava/Atlantic Records, and sharing bills with bands like Aerosmith, the Rolling Stones, and The Bangles. Along the way, she learned the grind of life on the road, the frustration of being pigeonholed as “girl music,” and the discipline that comes from playing night after night. Those experiences became the foundation for her eventual move to Broadway.Her first Broadway chair came in Head Over Heels, the Go-Go's jukebox musical that featured an all-female band. From there, Dena's career expanded into multiple productions, including Kristin Chenoweth: For the Girls, The Cher Show (as a sub), Magic Mike the Musical (Broadway Lab), and her current run in Little Shop of Horrors. She also subs on Hamilton, Six, and at the origial run of Beetlejuice.In our conversation, Dena opens up about the realities of the pit:* Why no two shows are ever the same and why you can never “phone it in”* The discipline it takes to stay fully present eight times a week* How playing in Antigone Rising prepared her for the demands of Broadway* What she looks for when hiring subs and why paying it forward matters* The role of Ableton, click tracks, and sound cues in modern Broadway drumming* Her full gear setup: Pearl drums, Zildjian cymbals, Evans heads, Promark sticks, and custom in-ears* Why she always keeps charts in front of her—even after memorizing the showDena also talks about the surreal moment of playing on stage with the Go-Go's, interviewing Gina Schock for Modern Drummer, and what it feels like to see the Head Over Heels Playbill now preserved in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.This is a conversation filled with honesty, humor, and hard-won lessons for any drummer dreaming of breaking into Broadway—or simply learning how to thrive in the unpredictable world of live performance.For more about Dena: https://www.denatauriello.comClayton Craddock founded Broadway Drumming 101, an in-depth online platform offering specialized mentorship and a carefully curated collection of resources tailored for aspiring and professional musicians.Clayton's Broadway and off-Broadway credits include tick, tick…BOOM!, Altar Boyz, Memphis The Musical, Lady Day at Emerson's Bar and Grill, Ain't Too Proud – The Life and Times of The Temptations, Cats: The Jellicle Ball, and The Hippest Trip: The Soul Train Musical.

¿Por qué robar como un artista también mejora tu comunicación?Para Austin Kleon, autor del libro Steal Like an Artist, esta es la esencia de la creatividad, algo que sin duda también puede transformar la forma en que comunicamos.Para empezar, pensemos en algunos casos reales donde las grandes obras no surgieron de la nada, sino del diálogo con lo que ya existía:El “robo” de Los Beatles y el rock and roll americanoMuchos consideran a The Beatles como la banda más influyente de la historia de la música. Pero ellos mismos admitieron que buena parte de su inspiración vino del rock and roll y el rhythm and blues estadounidense de los años 50. Chuck Berry, Little Richard y Elvis Presley marcaron su sonido inicial. Lo que hicieron los Beatles fue absorber esas influencias, mezclarlas con su propio contexto británico y convertirlas en algo completamente nuevo.El “robo” de Steve Jobs y el diseño de AppleJobs nunca ocultó que buena parte del ADN de Apple provenía de su fascinación por el diseño tipográfico y por el trabajo de empresas como Xerox PARC. Allí vio por primera vez una interfaz gráfica con ventanas y un ratón. Jobs lo tomó, lo reinterpretó y lo llevó al mercado con un estilo elegante y minimalista. El resultado fue el Macintosh, un computador que no solo funcionaba, sino que también era bello de usar.El “robo” de Lin-Manuel Miranda y Hamilton.El exitoso musical Hamilton no se parece a ningún otro de Broadway, pero su innovación no vino de la nada. Miranda tomó la historia de los padres fundadores de Estados Unidos Alexander Hamilton, la cruzó con ritmos de hip hop, R&B y música pop, y la presentó en un formato clásico de teatro musical. El resultado fue un híbrido que revolucionó la escena cultural.Estos ejemplos demuestran algo clave: la creatividad rara vez nace en un vacío. Se construye sobre lo que ya existe, reinterpretado a través de nuestra mirada y experiencia.Robar como un artista en la comunicaciónCuando comunicamos, también estamos “robando como artistas”. No inventamos cada palabra desde cero. Usamos frases que hemos escuchado, estructuras que nos enseñaron en el colegio, ejemplos que alguna vez nos contaron, gestos que hemos visto en otros. Lo importante es cómo logramos tomar todo eso y darle nuestro propio sello.Un líder, por ejemplo, puede inspirarse en discursos históricos para motivar a su equipo, pero adaptándolos al contexto actual y al lenguaje de su organización. Un profesor puede apoyarse en referencias clásicas, pero presentarlas con humor o con ejemplos de la vida diaria. Incluso en un correo electrónico, tomar una estructura que ya funciona y personalizarla con nuestro estilo es una forma de “robar creativamente”.La clave, como dice Kleon, está en seleccionar bien las referencias. Robar de una sola fuente es plagio; hacerlo de muchas, es investigación. Y en la comunicación pasa igual: mientras más amplias y diversas sean nuestras influencias, más original puede ser lo que decimos.En este episodio de Mil Palabras partimos del libro Steal Like an Artist de Austin Kleon para entender cómo estas ideas aplican al mundo de la comunicación. Porque al final, comunicar también es un acto creativo: tomamos lo que otros ya dijeron, lo filtramos con nuestra visión y lo convertimos en un mensaje fresco y propio.Así que la próxima vez que pienses que “todo ya está dicho”, recuerda que lo importante no es inventar desde cero, sino cómo mezclas y presentas lo que recibes. Ahí está tu originalidad, y ahí está tu poder como comunicador.#Comunicación Oral, #Hablar En Público, #Comunicación Efectiva, #Presentaciones, #Podcast De Comunicación, #Podcast, #Podcast Corporativo, #Desarrollo Profesional, #Expresión Verbal, #Técnicas Para Hablar Mejor, #Santiago Ríos, #Robar Como Un Artista, #Steal Like An...

A downtown event Thursday night aimed to give audiences a better understanding of the role Indianapolis had in the musical road that led to rock ‘n' roll.Noted author and music historian Preston Lauterbach spoke, focusing on the historical significance of Indiana Avenue in the development of American music.Lauterbach is well-known for his extensive research into Black culture and music, as highlighted in his 2011 book, “The Chitlin Circuit and the Road to Rock ‘n' Roll.” The book revealed that the famed touring strategy that many musicians used began in Indianapolis, not the south as many presume.“It was invented by the owners of a club on Indiana Avenue, Denver Ferguson and his brother, C. Ferguson,” Wilkerson explained. “They became not just club owners, but promoters and agents, and provided safe passage (to) places were where black musicians could play.”Chuck Berry, Little Richard, Fats Domino, and other famed musicians performed on Indiana Avenue, contributing to its role as, in Lauterbach's view, a “true birthplace of rock ‘n' roll.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

email: rockpoprollpodcast@gmail.com website: www.rockpopandroll.com (Some of) My Favorite Covers: From the earliest days of rock and roll, cover songs have been a vital part of the music's forward movement, drawing on its past. Long before we knew about digital discovery, one of the fastest ways for new artists to connect with audiences was to reimagine an existing hit and put it on an album or 45—infusing it with their own style, energy, and attitude. A Chuck Berry riff might get filtered through the Beatles' harmonies, or an old blues song could get a new spin in the hands of the Rolling Stones. Musicians have always looked back to reinterpret the songs that shaped them, essentially creating a conversation across decades of music. Great rock and roll covers often redefine the song. Jimi Hendrix's “All Along the Watchtower” transformed Bob Dylan's stark folk ballad into a guitar-rock, psychedelic stomper. Aretha Franklin took Otis Redding's “Respect” and made it a soul-rock anthem of empowerment. Nirvana's raw take on David Bowie's "The Man Who Sold the World" introduced the track to an entirely new audience. In each case, the cover didn't just honor the original—it expanded its reach. The best covers don't just repeat the past—they rewrite it, proving that a great song can live many lives. 10 Iconic Rock and Roll Covers and How They Transformed the Original Jimi Hendrix – All Along the Watchtower (1968) Originally by Bob Dylan, Hendrix electrified the song with guitars and redefined it as a rock classic. Dylan himself later performed it in Hendrix's style. The Beatles – Twist and Shout (1963) Originally recorded by The Top Notes and popularized by The Isley Brothers, the Beatles turned it into their own via John Lennon's famously shredded vocal take. Aretha Franklin – Respect (1967) Originally by Otis Redding, Aretha flipped the perspective, injecting it with feminist firepower, gospel-inspired vocals, and made it an anthem for empowerment and equality. The Rolling Stones – Little Red Rooster (1964) Originally by Willie Dixon (recorded by Howlin' Wolf), the Stones slowed it down, leaning into the deep Chicago blues feel, introducing American blues to a younger audience. Nirvana – The Man Who Sold the World (1993) Originally by David Bowie, Nirvana's MTV Unplugged version stripped it to a haunting acoustic vibe that resonated with '90s alternative fans - and (re)introduced Bowie to them, Joe Cocker – With a Little Help from My Friends (1968) Originally by The Beatles, Cocker turned the Sgt. Pepper and Ringo song into a soulful, slow-burning rocker.  Killer organ and gospel vocals. Janis Joplin – Piece of My Heart (1968) Originally by Erma Franklin, Joplin's version with Big Brother and the Holding Company was a raw and bluesy. The Clash – I Fought the Law (1979) Written in 1958 and first released in 1960 by The Crickets (after Buddy Holly left) and popularized by The Bobby Fuller Four, The Clash injected punk. It was their first single in the United States.

Después de una mención, J.F. León nos trae un nuevo episodio de la historia de las discográficas, centrándose en los márgenes del gran mercado donde comenzaron a cobrar más protagonismo los sellos independientes durante los años 40 y 50. Durante esta época se produjo la transición desde el blues al rock and roll, gracias a la mezcla de una pizca de country, bogie-bogie . En ese momento Sam Phillips decidió crear su propio sello: Sun Records, donde consiguió su fórmula para triunfar, un blanco con voz de negro: Elvis Presley. Al mismo tiempo, Chuck Berry comenzó a dar sus primeros pinitos en la industria musical. 

Great Scott! Back to the Future is the heartwarming tale of a teenage slacker, a wild-haired scientist, and a DeLorean with more horsepower than common sense. When Marty McFly accidentally zaps himself from 1985 to 1955, he must dodge his horny teenage mom, fix his parents' love life, and somehow get back to the future—all while Doc Brown turns Hill Valley High into a test site for time-traveling pyrotechnics. It's got skateboards, flux capacitors, Libyan terrorists, and more "Whoa, wait a minute, Doc" moments than Einstein can handle This week on Totally 80's and 90's Recall, Dave, Rob, and Kurt fire up the podcast and hit 88 miles per hour to break down the cinematic magic of Back to the Future. From Biff's punchable face to Chuck Berry's accidental inspiration, we're talking all the iconic lines, legendary scenes, and scientific inaccuracies that made this time-traveling adventure a pop culture lightning bolt.

To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.In this video episode, I sit down with drummer and Hawaii native Pili Fronda—and fair warning: you might learn more about Hawaiian history, food, geography, and culture than you expected. And I'm not mad about it…because I love Hawaii as much as Pili does.What started as a conversation about drums quickly turned into a deep dive into the mountains of Maui, eating poke in Vegas, dodging cliffs on the road to Hana, and unpacking what it really means to grow up Hawaiian.Pili shares powerful insight into his upbringing, the meaning behind his full name (which you'll want to hear him pronounce), and how the cultural values of the islands shaped his character and musical path. We talk about the community spirit of Hawaii, how music is integrated into education there, and how his influences—from reggae to Latin percussion to gospel—eventually led him to the national tour of Mrs. Doubtfire.Later on, Pili breaks down how he landed that tour gig right out of college, how he prepared for it, and what it really takes to succeed on the road. It's an inspiring conversation with a young musician doing it right—with humility, discipline, and heart.Watch, enjoy, and if you like what you see, hit that subscribe button on the Broadway Drumming 101 YouTube channel.

Carl Ruiz Vic Henley Sherrod Small 3/20The final year of my radio journey holds a special place in my heart, made even more poignant by the loss of my cherished friends, Carl Ruiz and Vic Henley. Reflecting on that time, I rediscovered the pure passion and exhilaration that drew me to radio in the first place. Amidst the chaos and challenges, we found endless moments of hilarity and camaraderie. Alongside Carl, Vic, and Sherrod Small, we shared unforgettable experiences both on and off the airwaves, our tight-knit bond shining through every episode. That year also marked Carl Ruiz's meteoric rise to stardom, inspiring me to launch the Opie Radio podcast with him. I'm immensely grateful to Erock, Clubsoda Kenny, Paul, and Louis for joining us on this wild ride. Get ready to dive into the rollercoaster of emotions—the highs, the lows, and the laugh-out-loud moments—that defined my last year in radio.

We also talk about the community-centered spirit of the islands, the way music is woven into Hawaiian education, and how Pili's musical influences—from reggae to Latin percussion to gospel—led him to the national tour of Mrs. Doubtfire.Later in the episode, we dig into his process for landing that tour gig straight out of college, how he prepared for it, and what it takes to thrive on the road.
