Dale is a 30-year veteran of the Canadian music industry and he is here to share a few stories about Gord and the Hip. Welcome Dale, how's it going?Track 2:[1:22] Thank you Craig, it's going very well, I'm happy to be here. This is, you know what, my first podcast participation ever. Oh wow, Wow. Okay. Well, I'm pretty new to this too. So we'll just see how it goes. But I have you on today to talk a little hip because I know you're a big fan and that's how I met you is talking about the hip. And your name was a name that would come up over and over through our mutual friend, Matt Pinch. And I thought I'd just share a quick story about how I met Matt that you probably don't know. So it was grade seven for me and Matt was a year younger in grade six, but we were in a class together and my good friend had moved out of town that summer and so I was without a close friend at school and one day we were seated next to each other and Matt started talking to me about WWF wrestlers and he was very enthusiastic and I didn't know too much but I went home and made sure to watch that you know Saturday night and came back to school the next week with a little bit more knowledge about wrestling and and we would spend our days drawing wrestlers on on blank pieces of paper and then we would take our compass and one at a time drop the compass on each of the wrestlers and if it hit we would make a little tally and after 10.Track 2:[2:46] Hits that that wrestler would be eliminated from the the battle royale and so that's how that's how we met and then we ended up you know matt was the first person i ever met who played guitar he He got a guitar for his birthday, I believe, and I would pick it up and I just fell in love right away. And so I, you know, started playing shortly after that. And we ended up actually starting our first band together and, you know, started playing cover music. And within a year we were playing all original. And yeah, that was my first band experience with along with our buddy Blair, who you know, and our friend Bob on drums. And yeah, how about you? How did you get to know Matt?Track 2:[3:23] So i met matt when he joined bmg while i was working there um here in vancouver and he came on board as a street team member i think it was around 1998 or so um he then became our street team leader uh which you know the really cool thing about the street team pro programs that the labels were utilizing was that it was a great sort of starting ground for uh somebody getting into the music industry and to get hired from there because typically as a street team member you're volunteering you were out there you know putting stickers on bathroom walls or um putting posters up on either walls where you're allowed to or in street corner you've seen those you know uh let's say uh the new trouble charger album at that time coming soon blah blah blah so So Matt was part of that. And then he ended up moving into the radio promotions department within BMG until 2004 when he was an unfortunate victim of the Sony BMG merger. Right. And that was phase one. You know, it's very typical for these mergers where, you know.Track 2:[4:38] You become a victim to the downsizing you know it affected me eventually in 2007 where we had an office of 11 and the next day there were only two left i was one of the nine wow um but yeah it's just you know that's the nature of the beast and and uh the music industry is volatile it's just that crazy you know you love it and you can also kind of despise it at the same time because of some of the um debris that it can leave in its wake but uh you know you're in it for the music you know it's um i would have to say that the hip were probably a major catalyst for me in terms of my love for music and you know seeing them play live it's you know you've seen them it's the band that i saw the most in my live music experience i've never seen any musician more than or artists it's more than the hip i think i've seen spirit of the west maybe one or two times more um being out west my whole life and so they were just playing around this area a lot but yeah the hip burn number two for me and when i met you uh through matt it was actually at his wedding or the lead up to and i remember i had some some interesting stories so um so you actually met the hip way back i believe you said way back in the early days yeah it was it was really kind.Track 2:[6:01] Of a wild thing because um so in 1990 i started working for this company based in winnipeg who were basically the exclusive contract for catering through i think was periscope promotions at the time which became i believe house of blues it's now live nation never heard of them yeah this little company that you know might make it big one day um might even have a monopoly one day you never know but the um so yeah we were doing these uh we would cater these shows and then in winnipeg at the time there was this theater that had been renovated um it's now called the burton cummings theater at the time it's called the walker um and the hip were playing there they were i believe the first band to reopen that venue and um so as part of the catering you're there all day long. So it's a long hours, you know, it's, it's you're there from 6.00 AM until usually load out at 2.00 AM, 2.00 AM. Yeah. But anyway, got to meet the hip. The first time I got to actually meet Gord, I'm standing beside him as you're watching the sky diggers open up for the, for the hip that night. Yeah. So which is just surreal. It's a surreal experience.Track 2:[7:22] In itself because you know here's me this giant hip fan and there's gourd downy literally right beside me shaking and grooving away to the skydiggers yeah and he was known for that to um totally watch the opening bands i know i know he was uh you know the artists love him for that absolutely a passionate music guy you know he's he's um that was his his thing and and i think that respect that he showed the musicians followed him right throughout his entire career which is, it's pretty incredible to have, um, met him after the show. Uh, he signed my, um, backstage pass, which was stuck on my baseball hat. And it, uh, so, and he would sign something super unique to every single person that wanted an autograph. So, um, there was this one poster that, uh, it was a picture of Gord and it was one of the, the brand new posters for the, uh, road apples album and on the one of the posters it he just wrote i'm the motherfucker from around the way pardon my language and then there was another poster again he's got that you know he's.Track 2:[8:32] It's a picture of him singing and then the rest of the band are underneath him, and on that one he said i'm singing solely for you naive guy you know he just had these little quips right on mine he wrote because it was on my hat he wrote this the outer brim and then you you know, signed his name to it. So, and I still have it to this day, obviously. And it's one of those bizarre little prized possessions. Yeah, no, that's very cool. So when did you first get into the hip?Track 2:[8:59] I got into the hip in 89. So I, the first time I ever heard them, um, blow it high dough is being played on much music. And you hear that riff, I come ripping out of my bedroom and there's this amazing song. I just stood there. I couldn't remember it vividly me just kind of stopped in my tracks as this song came out um and then you've seen that video it's i to this day it's one of my favorite videos right um it's such a it's you know it's a great great song and that was my intro that was my um my intro to the hip and the the catalyst that basically started me off and then i never missed a tour nice and on you know every single tour that that band did, I was able to see, I was super lucky in a lot of times where, you know, they're playing Richards on Richards and I was able to get in there for, you know, a, um, those little sort of exclusive when to get in type things. So, yeah, but that's my very first vivid memory of becoming a hip fan. Okay. Yeah. That's around the same time as me. I think I told the story on the first episode of this podcast, but, but I heard, um.Track 2:[10:11] Uh, New Orleans and I, and I enjoyed it. And then it was actually 38 years old that I heard on the radio at Matt's house. And I can picture it like on the radio. And I actually told the guys this, that I thought it was Tracy Chapman. Cause I, she was, she was at the time and I just, and then they said it was the hip and I'm like, wow, that's, that's two songs I like. And so I, I, you know, got the album and just, yeah, I fell in love right away and I didn't get to see them until 93 so roadside attraction and um out here at seabird island it was was my first show yeah so were you out in how long were you in winnipeg for then so i moved to calgary in 92 because i started working at a record store i was around 1990 91 the same time i was working with that catering company uh in winnipeg there was a chain called the record baron and um i guess their equivalent would be a and B sound only in terms of the way they had their pricing, you know, how Andy would get their aggressive pricing and bringing people into, you know, buy the hardware.Track 2:[11:14] Um, but the record Baron just had these great prices on, you know, all their, their stock. So, um, I was a customer first and I was super loyal to that company. And um for whatever reason likely because the prices fit my uh pocketbook at the time and um so i started working with them and then uh they opened up a shop in calgary and um at that time there were seven major labels so in calgary the cool thing was all of the labels are coming through because we're a new store and you know they're bringing us posters they're bringing us play copies to play in store you know um i remember when the mca rep at the time claudia neff, brought in uh the advance for fully completely and then a bunch of artwork that we put up on the walls and uh um you know fully completely is probably my favorite hip album right but um.Track 2:[12:11] So fast forward to 93 where I started working with BMG because the labels are coming in and visiting us and I'm getting to know the reps and the branch managers and all that sort of thing. I started with BMG as a customer service rep which is an entry-level position, and then I was transferred to Vancouver in 95 in a sales capacity and at that time I had I had the Future Shop account, all the HMVs, Virgin Megastore. I had everything but A&B Sound, Stan the Record Man. So that was my way to get to Vancouver. I was essentially transferred here. I loved the city so much, I wasn't going to say no.Track 2:[12:59] It breaks my heart a bit to hear all those record stores you mentioned. Oh, yeah, totally. Not a lot around anymore. more although uh sunrise is starting to pop up quite a bit around here yeah yeah sunrise bought all of the hmv look not all the hmv locations but quite a few of those hmv locations so you know the only thing they don't have a downtown presence which is fine you know you've still got some great independent shops there are yeah yeah a few years later i believe you had the chance to meet gourd again um when he was uh doing some solo uh solo work and and that's you know what this podcast is really about. So I'm not sure if you even know the premise is that this is a show about some diehard hip fans, myself included, who have never really given Gord's solo work much of a chance. And so we are, as of this recording, we are about halfway through and, and all of us have just fallen in love with, with this music. I'd heard certain songs before I knew Secret Pathwell and I knew, you know, a single here and there, but I cannot believe how, how strong this work is. So So what was your experience with Gord as a solo artist?Track 2:[14:08] It was phenomenal. He, um, so I got to work with Gord on the Grand Bounce tour. Um, and, um, which is my favorite solo album of his only because I, I guess being able to work with him, but, uh, I just love a lot of the music on there as well. It is a great album. Yeah. The East wind is probably one of my favorite songs of his, but, um, so he came through for that tour i knew that i was going to be working with him he he um was such a huge part of my dna my music dna as a kid that you know i've got him on this massive pedestal yeah so i barely slept the night before um i go and pick both him and his manager up at uh at their hotel his manager at the time was Bernie Breen, who they were also working with the Sam Roberts band at the time. Bernie is a great, great guy. One of these managers that really gets it. So anyway, you know, I pick up Gordon and our first stop is that, sorry, Gordon and Bernie, and I picked them up and we, our first stop is at Seafox.Track 2:[15:17] And at their, where their building is, there's a great sort of private elevator. It's essentially the service elevator. So we get in there and We ended up stopping at one of the floors and this mother, new mother comes in the elevator with her newborn and the baby is crying and you can tell she's a little bit, you know, it's just rattling her for sure. Right. Gord kind of motions to her and asks, you know, can I pick up your baby? Which he does. And the baby immediately stops crying. and he's got this sort of rocking you know it's just gourd being a human in fact it really humanized him baby stops crying it's our turn to get off the elevator he hands the baby back to the mom i don't even know if she knew who actually held her baby but uh you know that was one of those really endearing things with gourd and you know me being so nervous and that actually helped cut a little bit of the tension for me not that there was tension it was just my nerves yeah um you know it's just you know not many people made me that nervous but he was definitely one of them only because they had him on the pedestal but he could not have been a nicer man he was just super casual we did talk a little bit of hockey i tried to find some sort of a.Track 2:[16:40] Um a commonality something that is not going to be just music music music to him you know we talk talk about the bruins um you know we can always talk about the weather but people do that all day long so um you know his favorite uh venues and all that sort of thing so it was just a great.Track 2:[17:00] Experience for me and then at the end of the day we finish up and i'm taking him and his manager um back to the venue they're playing the vogue so gordon's got to go and do sounds check and I finally get up the nerve to ask for a photo and he says yeah no problem and I passed my.Track 2:[17:18] I don't know if it was my stupid little iPhone at the time or if it was a it might have even been a digital camera somebody Bernie's got the camera and all of a sudden I feel this knuckle drag up the back of my spine and and I smile and it's it's kind of like makes makes somebody laugh. So apparently that's something that he did just to get a smile and a reaction out of somebody. Because I was asked by Neil Morrison, who had done the interview with Gord at CFOX, did he run his knuckle up the back of your spine?Track 2:[17:53] And, you know, he did the exact same thing to Neil. So, you know, it's just one of those really.Track 2:[17:59] Somewhat intimate in in a certain regard because yeah yeah here's somebody literally dragging their knuckle off your spine you know and it's no no one has ever done that other than my wife when i when i get my my back scratched you know that sort of thing so it seems like a very gourd gourd thing to do exactly so that um you mentioned you were at seafox that day so that must be the neil morrison interview i actually remember about a month or so ago that the gourd downey social media people put a clip of that up online so yeah so you were there for that yeah that's exactly what that would have been yeah yeah and being able to facilitate that that sort of thing and you know even see the behind the scenes thing it was a that's one of my favorite takeaways from you know having been a promotions rep for quite a while you mentioned your favorite hip album is fully completely yeah and your favorite gourd solo album is the grand bounce easily yeah so how about a couple of top tracks from the hip and from gourd solo yeah you know what that's it's so tough with the hip because they've got so much but locked in the truck of a car has always been one of my favorites because live it's such a special you know moment in the show or when they played it live. And the really cool thing about that song is if you know the live version of Highway Girl, so, you know, as well.Track 2:[19:28] So a lot of the bits and pieces from that song end up in lock.Track 2:[19:33] And that was very common for them where they would have that middle sort of stanza in certain songs where you'd be spewing lines and they would show up. You know, I remember that happening during, I can't remember what the live song would have been, but, uh nautical disaster which you know again is another one of my favorite hip songs um and then nautical disaster became one of those things where they would get into a little bit of a jam and i think during um the saturday night live performance when they did that song they, i believe if it's not on saturday night live it's on the on the um that first live record but they start doing some skydiggers you know things you know escape at hand for the traveling man is one of my favorite tunes by them because it's just a really cool story in that song.Track 2:[20:22] Yeah. That's one of the songs I actually remember him wood chopping. I believe in the middle of nautical and I think it was one of the roadside attraction tours and there's that idle conversations bit at the end and then the next album comes out and there it is. Exactly. And that also happened for Scared, where at the end it's not scared it's something off of day for night where you do the rolling, yeah thugs thugs that's right so they you know the one line where you do the rolling i do the detail or i think i've just messed that up so it might be so anyway um i would always look and listen for those during live sets and then i couldn't wait to hear what would happen for the the next record and how he would implement that stuff. So that was kind of like that thing you would chase for the next record once you experienced something and you knew it so well in the live setting. I would imagine they've got that song, Depression Suite, which is another amazing tune, which is their longest tune.Track 2:[21:33] I would like to think that some of those bits and pieces have come from jams as well. My favorite hip tracks are always changing daily, but nautical is always up there for me. And also the Depression Suite, which you mentioned. And I actually remember the first time I heard that was, if you remember the album release for that, they, George Strombolopoulos actually hosted a show, you know, that they put in theaters across the country. Yeah. And I remember walking in a couple minutes late and I think my son had just been born that year and it was, you know, I didn't get out that often and get to the theater and sit down and they just finished the first little bit. And, you know, of course that song is like basically three songs in one. Yeah. And I remember hearing that song and just being blown away and, and really actually got back into the hip big time because of that, because of that show. Do you remember seeing that? I did. In fact, I was, I helped, you know, with what I used to do with Universal.Track 2:[22:43] That was one of the things that we would do. we'd set up that kind of contesting and um and you know the additional exposure and that i think that, uh launch was really cool because you also got to see the bathhouse studios and their pool room upstairs and yeah they they played bob cajun while shooting a game of pool yeah exactly yeah yeah and they i remember they set up a drum kit in the kitchen for thompson girl and they're like yeah yeah, this is exactly where the drum kit was when we recorded this song. Yeah, and all that kind of stuff. I could watch that all day long. It's hard to find, too. You can find little snippets here and there online, but I would love to see a re-release of that one day.Track 2:[23:25] Like I said earlier, it really... Got me right back into the hip you know I was at a bit of a low point before that and just brought me back big time yeah and I think it kind of rejuvenated my love as well because now for plan a it's not something that I put on a lot there's a some great songs on that record but it's just not something that I that I listen to that often so um you know and I I ended up loving um um, their last record, um, only because of, you know, they got back into some tempo and some great rock stuff on there. And, uh, you know, the interesting thing about that album is that it was going to be originally called, um, I think it was going to be called Ziggy, uh, Dougie Stardust. And if you remember the little baby, uh, with, with that wig, it's a Bowie wig. So, um, yeah, I believe it was going to be called Dougie Stardust before they ended up, renaming it but anyway that's a tangent that I don't think I meant to go on but you know that happens with bands that you're you can be a huge fan of is that you know if you look at a band like Pearl Jam sometimes you have some.Track 2:[24:39] Ebb and flow in terms of the music that you'll gravitate more towards as opposed to some of the releases you know you can't love it all it's just kind of hard so you can say that about so many legacy acts that are out there now um and then on gore's last solo record that was released with bob rock there's some amazing music on there i think in the field is probably one of my favorite tunes off of that record and i like that one that album in particular because it was a sort of a return to the tempo as well there's some great mellow stuff on the solo records but this one felt like it really seems a bit more concise in fact compared to some of the other things that he had been doing in the solo side, Okay, well, thanks for taking the time to talk with me today. Yeah, thanks for having me a part of this. I'm really quite honored to be a part of this. So it's very cool you to reach out to me, Craig, and I hope everything goes really well with this. Yeah, thanks. And maybe I'll give a quick shout out too, since Matt was the one who brought us together. So I should mention Matt, our friend Matthew Pinch is a newly published author.Track 2:[25:49] If you're into, I'm really sorry, Matt, if you're hearing this, I have not listened to your book yet or read your book yet, but I promise I'm going to this summer. I believe it's called Taste by Matthew Pinch. You can find it on Amazon.Track 2:[26:01] It's a horror slash thriller. Have you read it? I have started it and I read it with Matt's voice in the background, basically. So it's, you know, I think that's kind of natural for that to happen. But I'm excited that Matt had finally got that book out there. And I jumped online and got it on Amazon right away and it showed up, I think, the next day. So, yeah, it's great to see that Matt's following that passion of his as well. Yeah, he tells me there's a sequel this summer, so it'll be perfect timing. I can do both at once. yeah but anyways um yeah so thanks for coming on and uh take care thanks craig you too let me know that if there's anything else you need okay sounds good take care talk to you soon.

The other day I was listening to some guys on the radio (yep, I still listen quite a lot to the radio, but that's because we've got a great one here in Dallas - The Ticket). Go to TheTicket.com and download their app so you can stream it free. They were talking about the sweet spot of being on the planet. Artificial intelligence prompted the conversation which had started because of an article that talked about an AI-driven robot defeating 6 players at Texas Hold 'Em poker. The machine had played trillions of hands and learned how to win through deception, which is a big component of winning poker (so I'm told). Then this past week that face app was all the rage with people taking selfies that could project, with alarming realism, what they may look like when they're old. With my face, I don't need no stinkin' app! I've got the real thing. The phrase "deepfake" is now in our consciousness. The question being debated by the morning radio guys was, "How are we gonna ever know if what we're seeing is true or not?" Technology is allowing us to manipulate reality with convincing evidence. Some think the robots - armed with AI capabilities beyond what we may be able to currently imagine - will destroy us. That prompted the notion that being a Baby Boomer is likely the ideal. Those of us born to the World War II vets between 1946 and 1964 fit that bill. I'm one of them, born in 1957 in Ada, Oklahoma - a town not known for much of anything really until Blake Shelton hit big. He even released an album featuring the town water tower in 2014 entitled, "Bringing Back The Sunshine." My family left Ada when I was in the 3rd grade moving to Louisiana. But I've lived in Texas far longer than any other state. I'm still an Okie. It's hard to explain, but I'll try. And along the way let's see if I can bring you some value as you figure out who you are because that's really the subject. Self-awareness. Self-identity. And the realization that somewhere, deep inside, we're still the little kids we once were. Roots run deep for most of us. And it's not just place that follows us the rest of our lives, but it's also time. The time when we grew up. And how. So feel free to think about your childhood. Consider the days of your youth. Reminisce. I hope your memories are mostly good, but whatever they are - I hope you find a way to leverage them to make your future better. Willis Alan Ramsey is a local DFW guy who grew up in the grand privilege of Highland Park, the wealthiest section of Dallas. He released one brilliant album in 1972. On it was a song about another Okie, Woody Guthrie..."Boy From Oklahoma." The chorus goes like this... Just a boy from Oklahoma On an endless one-night stand Wan'drin' and a-ramblin' Driftin' with the midnights and He played the blues and the ballads And all that came between His heart was in the Union And his soul was reachin' out For the servant's dream I really grew up in Louisiana and I have a special fondness for the culture, music, and food of southern Louisiana, but I have always felt more connected to Oklahoma. Sooner football was important early. I recall playing in the leaves in our yard in Ada tossing a football to myself, pretending to be a star athlete wearing the crimson and cream. Sooner state born people were always on the radar. Mickey Mantle, Johnny Bench (even though I was not a baseball fan), Tony Randall, Dale Robertson, James Garner, Ron Howard (hey, Opie) and of course, Will Rogers, the state's favorite son. These were the Okies of my youth. Merl Haggard wrote and sang "Okie From Muskogee" but he was from Oildale. A city in California. But both his parents were Okies who migrated like tons of others during The Great Depression. I wonder what California would be like today if it weren't for The Gold Rush and The Great Depression. Anything with "the" in front of it is a big deal. Well, all these Okies stars of my youth would be joined by country music...

Affordable Web Hosting $5.99 A month Death Valley Days was a long-running American radio and television anthology about true stories of the old American West, particularly the Death Valley area. It was created in 1930 by Ruth Woodman and ran on radio until 1945. It ran from 1952 to 1975 as a syndicated television show. The 558 television stories, which had different actors, were introduced by a host. The longest-running was "The Old Ranger" from 1952-1965, played by Stanley Andrews. The hosts following were actors Ronald Reagan, Robert Taylor, John Payne, Dale Robertson and Merle Haggard. During his time as host, Reagan also frequently appeared in the program as a performer. It has been rerun under other names and with other hosts, since the hosting segment at the beginning and the end could be easily reshot with another performer with no effect on the story. Alternate hosts and titles have included Frontier Adventure (Dale Robertson), The Pioneers (Will Rogers, Jr.), Trails West (Ray Milland), Western Star Theatre (Rory Calhoun) and Call of the West (John Payne). The last title was also often applied to the series' memorable, haunting theme music. Under the Death Valley Days title, the program was invariably sponsored by Pacific Coast Borax Company, which during the program's run changed its name to U.S. Borax Company following a merger. Advertisements for the company's best-known products, 20 Mule Team Borax, a laundry additive, and Boraxo, a powdered hand soap, were often done by the program's host. Death Valley was the scene of much of the company's borax mining operations. The "20-Mule Team Borax" consumer products division of U.S. Borax was eventually bought out by the Dial Corporation, which as of 2006 still manufactures and markets them. U.S. Borax continued to mine and refine the borates and maintained Dial as one of its customers. In 2006, Rio Tinto, the parent company of U.S. Borax. Inc., decided to merge USB with two of its other holdings, Dampier Salt and Luzenac Talc, to form Rio Tinto Minerals and has moved its corporate headquarters to Denver, Colorado. Death Valley Days is, judging from sheer number of episodes broadcast, by far the most successful syndicated television Western, the most successful television Western ever in the half-hour format, and arguably the most successful syndication of any genre in the history of the U.S. television market (Baywatch had a larger international market among U.S.-produced syndicated programs.)
