Tune in as TampaMystic interviews Ed Morales

Ed's career in music spans several decades and is a gifted musician, singer and songwriter. Beginning in the 1980s, Ed has recorded both as an independent artist and signed to labels. He has journeyed across the country, including a time in Nashville, and still performs to a large following in the Texas Hill Country area around San Antonio, where he currently lives.“At this juncture in my career, I don't have delusions of grandeur,” he said. “I really want to reach people of my age. You know, the Gen X group who experienced great music and styles of the '60s, '70s, and 80s. People seeking a voice, speaking their ‘language'. Someone who grew up at the same time and understands the juncture we are in our lives. Those are the ones that I'm most trying to appeal.”But he is ready to take his music to a wider world.Support the Show.

If the music and lyrics combined can transcend a categorical box connecting then evoking feelings and memories in the listener, an artist has succeeded. Texas singer/songwriter Ed Morales does just this. His music is a diverse confluence of Rock, Pop, R&B, and Americana into what some call “Urban Americana”. Bringing a deep musical integrity to his lyrics - connecting directly with his listeners on journeys to their first love and first heartbreak, of joyful open road freedoms and inner contemplations, of soulful awakenings or crossroad deliberations.With a long and rich history in the music, Ed Morales has experienced a career as both a label and as an independent recording artist dovetailing into songwriting and publishing. Gifted in the art of capturing live performance, his musicality, harmony, and emotive lyrics point back to earlier influences such as Jackson Browne, Don Henley and Tom Petty. His seemingly carefree though thoughtful musical arrangements, however, put him in a class all his own. Valuing simplicity and integrity over temporal solos or complex story songs, Morales organic/pure approach creates a deep, lasting connection with his listeners.Morales realized initial success in the 1980's when labels still ran on music publication announcements, independent radio playlists and live shows. “The first time my career really started to take off was in the 80's I record a few songs at UAR studios in San Antonio, Texas. One song entitled “Will You Be There”, caught the attention of A/R rep at a then local record label called Teardrop Records. They liked it and pressed a couple hundred copies and it wound up on Billboard. Received a couple of great reviews, a lot of radio play and live shows. We went from local to regional act later getting signed to a label out of LA called Target Entertainment. Again, the album received a great deal of critical-acclaim at the time being touted by CMJ as “the best thing to come out of Texas since ZZ Top”. Of course we had a lot of fun, as nineteen-year-old kids, doing that. Most importantly, it validated to me that something in the music was connecting. That meant a great deal and why I continue to write today.”Morales and his original band separated. Life happened and he gained a very successful career in the corporate sector - though he never stopped writing. He continued to release music in other bands and as a solo artist - reaping success with both mainstream and Christian music. With a strong regional following in San Antonio and Central Texas, Morales continues to write and perform today.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Daniel Alarcón On Spanish-Language Media Celebrated podcaster and writer Daniel Alarcón. Alarcón is the Executive Producer and host of NPR's Spanish language podcast Radio Ambulante. His podcast — which he started in 2012 — features a mix of investigative journalism and interviews, and covers a wide range of topics, from the refugee crisis in Venezuela to “killer bees” in Brazil. Alarcón is also a contributing writer at the New Yorker, a novelist, and he teaches at the Columbia Journalism School. His work dives deep into the social and cultural ties that connect Spanish-speaking populations across the United States and Central and South America. The Takeaway speaks to Alarcón about the importance of Spanish-language media and more. When it Comes to Identity Which Word Wins? Afro-Latinidad, Latino, Latinx and Hispanic are just a few of the terms used to identify people from a large portion of the world including Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean. But which one of these is right? Michele Reid-Vazquez, an associate professor in the department of Africana Studies at the University of Pittsburgh, who also serves as the director of the Afro-Latin American and Afro-Latinx Studies Initiative, and Ed Morales a journalist and author of Latinx: The New Force in American Politics and Culture joined to discuss.  U.S. Officials Announce That 23 Species Should Be Declared Extinct Last week, U.S. wildlife officials recommended that 22 animals and one plant within the United States and Guam be marked extinct and gone forever. In total, the extinctions include eight freshwater mussels, 11 birds, two fish, a bat, and a plant. Within the next decade, the issue could get worse due to climate change, but especially due to people taking over or changing habitats and diminishing global biodiversity. For more on this extinction and biodiversity crisis, The Takeaway spoke with Catrin Einhorn, who covers wildlife and extinction for The New York Times. Preview of the Upcoming SCOTUS Term Ian Millhiser, a senior correspondent at Vox, discusses some of the cases the Supreme Court is hearing this term. Its conservative leaning court will consider the fate of abortion rights, gun control, and the power Congress has over government agencies like the EPA and the Department of Labor.

What most Americans know about Puerto Rico is based on a colonial fantasy, says journalist and Columbia University professor, Ed Morales. This fantasy, and the reality it obscures, is the subject of his new book, Fantasy Island. In this episode, Laura interviews Morales and scholar/activist Rosa Clemente about the personal and political implications of the island's ongoing debt crisis, recovering from Hurricane Maria, and #RickyRenuncia, the intersectional protest movement that led to the resignation of Governor Ricardo Rosselló in the summer of 2019. Exploitation, corruption, and neglect may be business as usual in the United States' relationship with Puerto Rico but Morales and Clemente suggest that new movements provide some hope for change.   Featured Music in the Middle of the Podcast:   “Una Ola” by Eljuri from her album Resiste courtesy of Manovil Records.Become a member today at https://Patreon.com/theLFShow

3.5 million Americans in Puerto Rico are in dire crisis. The island territory is mired in debt and facing imminent default. Media coverage has blamed the last twenty years - when tax breaks were rolled back and loans extended. But this week's guests say the root of Puerto Rico's problems go deeper than that - to US colonial rule. If colonialism's at least in part the culprit here, it's pretty ironic that the solutions on offer from Congress seem so colonial as well. This week, journalist Ed Morales and activist Charles Khan talk about the roots of the problem, and how a colonial approach to a colonial problem just might not do it. Later in the show, we visit with the Urban Bush Women at their Summer Leadership Institute, a training program for artists and organizers held every year in New Orleans. Founded in 1984 by choreographer Jawole Willa Jo Zollar, Urban Bush Women seeks to bring the untold and under-told histories and stories of disenfranchised people to light through dance. All that and a few words from Laura on Yale University's outrageous aversion to paying taxes. Charles Khan is the Organizing Director at the Strong Economy For All Coalition, a Coalition of Labor Unions and Community groups fighting for economic equality, equal funding of public schools, and corporate accountability in New York State. He is also a leader of the HedgeClippers - an activist group taking on the Hedge Funds. Ed Morales is a journalist who has investigated New York City electoral politics, police brutality, street gangs, grassroots activists, and the Latino arts and music scene. He is also the author of "Living in Spanglish and The Latin Beat: From Rumba to Rock." He also co-directed a documentary called "Whose Barrio?" and is currently an adjunct professor at Columbia University's Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race.

This week on CounterSpin: Puerto Rico's governor, Alejandro Garcia Padilla, told the New York Times the island's debt is “not payable.” The debt crisis has already meant closing schools, losing jobs and shutting off healthcare options, so what does it mean that on the mainland, what's happening in Puerto Rico is just a business story–and not a story story? We hear about that from Ed Morales, author of Living in Spanglish and currently a lecturer at Columbia University's Center for the Study of Ethnicity and Race. Also on the show: If media couldn't use phrases like “despite big strides, barriers remain,” it's not clear they could even report on the 25th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The legislation made it illegal to discriminate against people with disabilities in accommodation, transportation and employment, in order to encourage independent living and economic self-sufficiency. But with only some 20 percent of people with disabilities in the workforce, it's very clear that barriers remain–and less clear that media are really committed to talking about them. Joining us to talk about that is Beth Haller, professor of mass communication at Towson University and author of Representing Disability in an Ableist World: Essays on Mass Media. And first, as usual, we take a look back at the week's press, including Chinese foreign investment, the Samuel DuBose killing and the US's failing grade on human rights. The post CounterSpin – July 31, 2015 appeared first on KPFA.

Temporarily dispensing with NLG's interview format, Ed Morales spins some of the tunes that have been making him jump lately, including reggaeton, salsa, Sergio Mendes, and Latin alternative.
