The Nashville Innovation Alliance got a boost from the mayor recently, but, uh, what is it? And why does it involve genetic information? City Cast contributor Nicole Williams joins host Marie Cecile Anderson and executive producer Whitney Pastorek to try and figure that out. Plus, the Boring Co. has a strange sense of the word “confidential,” the law threatening elected officials with jail time for supporting “sanctuary policies” is unconstitutional, and an Eric Clapton fan had a big night out.

Ceux qui ont connu une star de la pop ou du cinéma sur les bancs de l'école ont tous dit la même chose : on n'aurait jamais cru. Oui, qui peut affirmer : « J'ai toujours su que Mick deviendrait une star. John ? On était tous d'accord au lycée : un jour, on le verrait passer à la télé. »Non, bien sûr. Les profs et les camarades de classe ont tous été étonnés du destin d'un Michel Polnareff ou d'un Paul McCartney. Mais alors puisqu'il n'y a pas d'école de stars où elles grandissent toutes ensemble, qu'est-ce qui fait qu'un jour Michael devient Mick Jagger ou un Farokh Boulsara, Freddie Mercury ?Et bien, le plus souvent, un drame, une fêlure, un manque, bref un gros problème non résolu qui poussent ces enfants à développer un talent dans lequel ils vont tout donner, s'engouffrer, et qui va un jour être reconnu par tous car, oui, on n'a jamais vu ou entendu un truc pareil. Et en 1962, à Windlesham, une petite ville de la campagne londonienne près du fameux champ de course hippique d'Ascot, le jeune Roger Hodgson vit un drame avec le divorce de ses parents. Avant de quitter la maison familiale, son père lui fait un incroyable cadeau : une guitare électrique. A cette époque, je peux vous dire que des guitares électriques, on n'en voit pas beaucoup. D'ailleurs pourquoi deviendrait-on guitariste ? Les membres de l'orchestre sont toujours dans l'ombre, regardez, derrière Elvis Presley ou Frank Sinatra. Ce sont les Beatles qui dans quelques mois vont devenir les premiers premiers musiciens superstars et envoyer des milliers d'adolescents britanniques dans les magasins d'instruments, créant une génération de surdoués. Voilà donc notre jeune Roger replié sur sa guitare électrique. Il est tellement attaché à ce cadeau de son père que, pour combler le vide, se protéger du complexe d'être désormais un enfant de divorcé, il se rend à l'école avec elle. Et surprise, il ne se fait pas montrer du doigt en classe, miuex, son instituteur lui apprend à jouer les trois accords principaux.Rodger fusionne alors avec sa guitare. Un an plus tard, il donne déjà un concert dans son école en duo avec un autre élève avec qui il interprète neuf chansons qu'il a lui-même composées. La musique et lui font désormais UN. Rodger apprend aussi à jouer de nombreux instruments, rien ne lui résiste.Au sortir de l'école, en 1969, Rodger Hodgson enregistre déjà un disque pour le label Island qui avant de produire Bob Marley et U2, publie alors Steve Winwood et Eric Clapton. Il faut dire que Rodger a croisé le chemin d'un autre surdoué nommé Reginald Dwight avec qui il chante sous le nom de Argosy. Malheureusement après un premier 45 tours, Reginald le quitte avec le batteur et l'autre guitariste pour faire une carrière solo sous le nom de Elton John. Se retrouvant seul, Roger Hodgson répond alors à la petite annonce d'un certain Rick Davies : cherche guitariste. Le jour de l'audition, ils sont une petite centaine à faire la file. Pourtant, immédiatement, Rick dira : C'est lui ! Quel talent ! Je n'ai jamais entendu un truc pareil.
Il a raison Voulzy. Londres en 1966 est véritablement coupée en deux mondes qui semblent ne pas pouvoir se rejoindre. D'un côté vous avez les bobbys, les hommes en costumes noirs, les façades sombres, bref à part le rouge des cabines téléphoniques et des autobus, la capitale de l'ex-empire britannique n'a pas changé malgré la reconstruction d'après-guerre. Et puis de l'autre côté, vous avez quelques quartiers où la folie explose : ça s'appelle la pop. Elle s'écoute sur quelques nouvelles radios de la BBC et de la Mer du Nord embarquant la jeunesse anglaise dans un monde de couleurs. Les jupes sont courtes à faire peur, les cheveux longs à en rire, et puis surtout il a ces danses où les jeunes font n'importe quoi.Dans cette ville où l'industrie du disque règne grâce aux ventes mondiales des Beatles, Tom Jones, Eric Clapton, des Who et autres Rolling Stones, l'argent coule à flots. Tout est permis surtout de rêver dans sa cave, son grenier, le garage des parents, qu'on peut réussir comme eux. C'est tellement possible que même les Américains quittent New York pour Londres afin de se faire connaître chez eux. Ainsi le jeune Jimi Hendrix qui vient de recruter deux Anglais pour former son groupe : the Experience. Il a pour ce faire, dévoyé un certain Noel Redding de son groupe les Lovely Ones qui se retrouve sans claviériste. Je peux le remplacer si vous voulez ? Tu sais jouer de l'orgue ? Bien sûr. Rick Davies, 22 ans, a menti. Mais la perspective de partir enregistrer de la musique en Allemagne l'a poussé à raconter cette carbistouille. Après une solide formation musicale à la batterie, Rick a appris tout seul le piano il y a quelques années pour jouer du rock'n'roll. Mais l'orgue électrique, c'est autre chose. Sauf qu'en 1966 à Londres, tout est possible, je vous l'ai dit. Rick apprend vite. Le groupe ne fait pas d'étincelles mais lors d'une session de studio à Munich, Rick rencontre un riche Hollandais qui lui fait une proposition dingue : tu es vraiment doué. Si tu montes un groupe, je le finance. Je paie tout : matériel, enregistrement.Produire un groupe du pays des Beatles, un hobby de millionaire du continent. Et il tient parole. Rick organise un casting en 1969 en publiant une petite annonce à laquelle répondent de nombreux musiciens dont un multi-instrumentiste à la voix haut perchée nommé Rodger Hodgson. C'est le coup de foudre artistique, un nouveau duo de la trempe Lennon-McCartney vient de naître. Il faudra juste six ans pour que leurs compatriotes en entendent parler et presque dix pour qu'ils soient populaires dans le monde entier. Comment ont-ils tenus tout ce temps ? Tout simplement parce que gagner des fortunes n'était pas leur but. A l'époque, tout ce qu'ils voulaient, c'est créer de la musique et la jouer, si possible devant des salles pleines et accueillantes.

The latest episode of Blues is the Truth is live, hosted as always by Ian McHugh and proudly sponsored by the Tuesday Night Blues Jam at the Rising Sun, Isleworth. This week's show is packed with the regular features you love, plus some very special news — there's gig news to share and details of a brand new festival being planned in tribute to the late, great Robert Hokum. The music is as rich and varied as ever. You'll hear the guitar mastery of Duke Robillard, the unforgettable partnership of Monster Mike Welch and Mike Ledbetter, and the soulful fire of Larry McCray. Blues royalty is in the spotlight with tracks from BB King, Buddy Guy, Freddie King, Albert King and Stevie Ray Vaughan, and the one and only Muddy Waters. The British scene is well represented too, with the Chris Corcoran Trio, Robert Hokum and Devil Drives, Connie Lush, Michael Messer, Dave Kelly, Kai Strauss, and Chris Youlden and the Slammers all stepping up to the plate. You'll also catch standout performances from Doyle Bramhall II, Gary Moore, Eric Clapton, The Forty4s, John Lee Hooker, Coco Montoya, and the team-up of Jimmie Vaughan and Omar Kent Dykes. It's a show that mixes legends with modern greats, delivers plenty of news alongside the music, and celebrates the very best in blues from both sides of the Atlantic.
Label: Epic 9790Year: 1965Condition: M-Last Price: $40.00. Not currently available for sale.Here's a remarkably beautiful copy of this 1960s Rock classic, impossible to find in decent condition but a single I always try to keep in stock. This time I lucked out: This copy miraculously retains pristine audio -- so special I recorded it quickly to iTunes and then made an mp3 snippet so you can hear for yourself! "For Your Love" was this seminal Hard Rock group's first and biggest U.S. hit. If I'm not mistaken, this is the combination of Yardbirds that found Jeff Beck playing lead guitar. As I recall, Eric Clapton left the group earlier in 1965, sort of in protest to the other members' interest in abandoning pure Blues and RnB for a catchy pop song like "For Your Love." All I can say is, "For Your Love" may be a catchy pop song as done by some other band, but this Yardbirds manage to put a muscular, almost sinister cast to the number, making it a prime example of hard rock, in the style being hammered out by bands like the Rolling Stones and Animals at the time. Note: This copy comes in a vintage Epic Records factory sleeve. The labels are very close to Mint. The vinyl (styrene) grades Near Mint, reflecting a few very light scuff marks.

The new episode of Blues is the Truth, hosted by Ian McHugh and proudly sponsored by the Tuesday Night Blues Jam at the Rising Sun, Isleworth, is ready to roll. This week's show features a huge spread of blues. You'll hear the power and passion of Bernard Allison, the soulful fire of Earl Thomas, and brand-new sounds from Tom Hambridge. There's wit and charm from Andy Twyman, and a dose of guitar royalty from Eric Clapton. The groove keeps flowing with Benny Turner and Cash McCall, Latin spice from Santana, and deep cuts from Brother Ray Lemolin and the Matinee Kings alongside the Joel Dupuis Band. The classics stand tall too, with Muddy Waters, the red-hot fretwork of Monster Mike Welch, and stylish performances from Jacques Peña and Chris Vincent and the Raw Deals. The late, great Lucky Peterson makes an appearance, joined by the smooth tones of Chad Strentz, acoustic intensity from John Hammond, and the full-tilt sound of Otis Grand. Add in BB and the Bullets, Lil' Red and the Rooster, heartfelt songs by Scott Low, and the mighty Quintus McCormick Blues Band, and you've already got a feast. To top it all off, the show closes with three legends together: Albert Collins, Robert Cray and Johnny Copeland.

In this week's episode of the Que Bola podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Miami's own King Tetrus, a dynamic rapper who is making significant strides in the music scene with his unique sound and powerful storytelling. From the moment we kicked off the episode, it was clear that King Tetrus is not just another artist; he embodies the relentless drive and creativity that defines the Miami hip-hop landscape. We began our conversation by diving into the origin of his name, King Tetrus. Tetrus, a game that many of us grew up playing, became a nickname during his childhood summer camps, where he was known for his skills. He cleverly connected this to his music, emphasizing that just like the game, hip-hop is fundamentally about "bars" and the essence of what you say. This playful yet profound analogy set the tone for a discussion that was both entertaining and insightful. As we explored his journey, King Tetrus shared his transition from a corporate finance career to pursuing music full-time, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic. He candidly spoke about the pressures of living for others' expectations and how the lockdown prompted him to rediscover his passion for rap. It was a moment of self-reflection that led him to embrace his true calling, and he recounted how he found joy in the creative process, even if it meant starting from scratch. Throughout our chat, we touched on the challenges of balancing a corporate job with a burgeoning music career. King Tetrus opened up about the sacrifices he has made, including the difficulty of maintaining personal relationships and the financial responsibilities that come with pursuing a passion. His perspective on time management and the importance of hard work resonated deeply, as he emphasized that progress is often a lonely journey. Musically, King Tetrus draws inspiration from a diverse range of influences, including classic funk, hip-hop legends like Tribe Called Quest and Nas, and even the Miami rap scene, with Pitbull being a significant figure in his early experiences. He articulated his desire to create music that is not only commercially successful but also timeless and relatable, aiming to connect with listeners from all walks of life. As we wrapped up the episode, King Tetrus shared his vision for the future, expressing a commitment to authenticity and a desire to make a lasting impact in the music industry. His passion for his craft and his determination to succeed were palpable, leaving me inspired and excited for what lies ahead for this talented artist. Join us for this engaging conversation filled with laughter, insights, and a genuine look into the life of King Tetrus. Whether you're a fan of hip-hop or simply someone who appreciates the creative journey, this episode is sure to resonate with you. Tune in and get ready to be inspired!

Guests: Steven Lewis, author of Richard Manuel: His Life and Music, from the Hawks and Bob Dylan to The Band Richard Manuel was a fearless original. Sweetly soulful as a vocalist and endearingly creative as a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, he was a vital part of some of rock 'n' roll's pivotal moments, including Bob Dylan's controversial move to electric music, Woodstock 1969, and the legendary Last Waltz. For the first time, Manuel's compositions and performances are critiqued with expert commentary in a new book by Steven Lewis—alongside new interviews with family, friends, and fellow musicians, including Eric Clapton and Van Morrison. The story traces Manuel's journey from Stratford, Ontario, to Woodstock, New York, and beyond, beginning with his first band, the Revols, then singing the blues with Robbie Robertson, Levon Helm, Rick Danko, and Garth Hudson in the Hawks. This group would later become the Band. Manuel's influence was profound, his distinctive vocals infusing songs with emotion and depth. His songwriting flourished in classics like “Tears of Rage,” co-written with Dylan, and “We Can Talk.” His keyboard work added a lovable funkiness to the Band's sound, blending elements of rock, folk, country, and blues into what would become the genesis of Americana. Despite the Band's successes, Manuel struggled with personal demons, battling addiction and inner turmoil. Looking beyond his human frailty, this book celebrates Richard Manuel's immeasurable contributions to music, ensuring that memories of his voice and artistry endure.

Send us a textMusician Bobby Whitlock best known as a member of the blues-rock band Derek and the Dominos, with Eric Clapton has passed away.Bobby Whitlock, the pianist, guitarist and songwriter who played on three of rock's most legendary albums — Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, All Things Must Pass and Exile on Main Street — has died. He was 77.A statement provided to ABC Audio by his manager Carole Kaye reads, “With profound sadness, the family of Bobby Whitlock announces his passing at 1:20am on Aug. 10 after a brief illness. He passed in his home in Texas, surrounded by family.”Born and raised in Memphis, Whitlock played on recordings by Sam & Dave and Booker T. & the M.G.'s as a teen and was the first white artist signed to Stax Records. In 1969, he played on the album Accept No Substitute by Delaney and Bonnie Bramlett and joined their touring band, Delaney & Bonnie and Friends. Eric Clapton and George Harrison subsequently joined the band as guest “Friends,” which led to Whitlock and Clapton backing Harrison on the former Beatle‘s landmark 1970 album All Things Must Pass.While working on Harrison's album, Whitlock and Clapton formed Derek and the Dominos with fellow Friends Carl Radle and Jim Gordon. Whitlock wrote or co-wrote seven of the 14 songs on their now-iconic album Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs, including “Tell the Truth” and “Bell Bottom Blues.”
This week, Paul continues the deep dive into blues guitar, building on foundation concepts from Episode 245. The focus shifts to soloing over a major blues progression—specifically, what scales to use, how to target chord tones, and the techniques that legendary blues artists like B.B. King, Eric Clapton, and Stevie Ray Vaughan employ in their solos.Key Topics CoveredRecap: Major vs. Minor Blues (12-Bar Blues Structure)Definition and structure of a 12-bar major blues progression using dominant 7 chords (A7, D7, E7).Why the turnaround bar matters, and options for looping or finishing the progression.Foundational Scale for SoloingWhy the A minor pentatonic scale (A, C, D, E, G) works so well, even over major blues progressions.The “bluesy” tension created by overlapping the scale's minor third (C) against the chord's major third (C#).Targeting Chord Tones for More Musical SolosRoot, third, and flat 7th notes of each dominant 7 chord (A7, D7, E7).How to start by simply hitting the root notes as the chords change, or add more complexity by incorporating other chord tones.Examples: bending C to C# for A7, sliding to F# for D7, emphasizing B for E7.Making Your Solos Sound More Interesting: Advanced Scale ChoicesMajor Pentatonic Scale: Adds brightness and connects with more chord tones.Blues Scale: Introduces the flat five (the “devil's note” for added tension).Mixolydian Mode: A sophisticated, more “perfect” match for dominant 7 chords.Blues Soloing Approaches of the LegendsB.B. King: Simple, expressive phrases in the “BB box,” blending major and minor pentatonic. Focuses on bending and vibrato over flashy scale runs.Stevie Ray Vaughan: Aggressive mixing of major and minor pentatonic, with embellishments like hammers, pull-offs, and expressive picking.Eric Clapton: Known for chord tone targeting, major-minor pentatonic blends, and signature licks that follow the progression.Practice TipsStart by jamming over backing tracks with A minor pentatonic.Progress to targeting root notes and other chord tones as the progression changes.Add in extra notes from the major pentatonic, blues scale, or Mixolydian mode as you become comfortable.Don't rush—focus on phrasing, feel, and emotion, not just speed and complexity.Resources & RecommendationsBacking Tracks & Playlists:Academy members: Check the dashboard's backing tracks section for new major and minor blues tracks.

En este programa de Cosas curiosas para gente curiosa, indagaremos junto con Alfonso Cardenal ,en la vida de Eric Clapton.
If you're a fan of classic rock, there's no escaping the unmistakable sound of Neal Schon, the legendary guitarist and founding member of Journey. With a career spanning over five decades, Schon's soaring guitar solos, emotional phrasing, and rock-solid riffs have helped define generations of music fans. From his early days with Santana to global superstardom with Journey and beyond, Neal Schon remains one of the most respected and enduring figures in the world of rock and roll.Born in Oklahoma and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Neal Schon was surrounded by music from day one. His father was a jazz saxophonist, his mother a singer — so it was no surprise when Neal picked up the guitar at just 10 years old. By the time he hit his teens, he was playing with the kind of precision and passion most guitarists spend decades trying to master.At 15, Neal made rock history by joining Santana, turning down an audition with Eric Clapton's Derek and the Dominos to do so. Neal's work introduced him to the world and shaped his unique blend of Latin-infused rock, blues, and jazz.In '73, Neal and keyboardist Gregg Rolie left Santana to form a new band — one that would later become the rock giant Journey. Originally intended as a jazz-fusion group, Journey's early albums were adventurous and musically rich. Success came in '77 when Steve Perry joined the band. His soaring vocals paired perfectly with Neal's melodic guitar work, and Journey's sound found its sweet spot: catchy, emotional, stadium-ready rock anthems. Neal's riffs and solos became the soundtrack of a generation. The album Escape alone went 9x Platinum and featured some of the band's biggest hits — including that eternal anthem.Of all the songs Neal has ever recorded, Don't Stop Believin' remains the crown jewel. It has become one of the most instantly recognisable songs in rock history. It took on a second life in the 2000s thanks to The Sopranos finale, Glee, and a million karaoke bars around the world.Today, Don't Stop Believin' is the most downloaded digital song of the 20th century. While Journey was (and is) Neal's main gig, he's never stopped exploring musically. In the mid-'80s, he formed bands with Sammy Hagar and later with John Waite and Journey's Jonathan Cain.Journey has seen its share of lineup changes, but Neal Schon has always been its heart and soul. Whether alongside Steve Perry, Steve Augeri, or Arnel Pineda, Neal's guitar has anchored the band's sound and kept fans coming back for more.Journey released Freedom in 2022, their first album of all-new material in over a decade. 2023 marked Journey's 50th anniversary, and Neal celebrated in style. The band embarked on their Freedom Tour, playing to sold-out arenas around the globe. Fans from every generation came out to hear the hits — and see Schon light up the stage with his signature Les Paul and fiery solos.As of 2025, Neal Schon is still touring, still recording, and still pushing himself as a player. Whether he's performing Journey classics, exploring new musical territory, or collaborating with old friends, he remains a true rock icon. With over 50 years in the industry, millions of records sold, and a legacy that spans generations, Neal Schon isn't just part of rock history — he is rock history.So next time you hear that soaring solo in Faithfully, that chugging riff in Any Way You Want It, or the unforgettable opening of Don't Stop Believin', tip your hat to Neal Schon — the guitar legend who made it all sing.

新鲜老歌,老歌新鲜。我是小七,陪你在每一首老歌中邂逅曾经的自己~
CAPTAIN BILLY'S MAGIC EIGHT BALL: ALBERT KING LIVE WIRE/BLUES POWERSo, there were three “Kings” of the blues: B.B., Freddie, and Albert. B.B. had the delicate simplicity. Less was always more with his virtuosity. He was a consummate communicator and showman, and much beloved. Freddie had the muscle and the size. A big man who stood 6'5'', he was all grit and groan. From his early days when he recorded Hideaway, up through his resurrection in the 70s by Leon Russell's Shelter label and the unbelievable propulsion of I'm Goin' Down, Freddy blew the doors off whatever venue he graced, but this energy proved too much to sustain; leading to his untimely death at age 42.My favorite was Albert. Also tall, 6'4,'' he was nicknamed “The Velvet Bulldozer”. Brandishing Lucy, his Gibson Flying V guitar - his ear was impeccable, as was his timing, guiding him through licks that have such sinuous grace, as he bends those out of tune strings into perfect harmony, as if they are taffy - but, also displays deep emotional power - a stinging embodiment of the Cross Cut Saw in action. The sound he produced was beefy, yet lyrical at the same time. His birth name was Nelson, but he copped the surname King, and claimed he was related to BB, in order to catch some of the latter's reflected glory. It was a tough road for Albert, and though he never reached the widespread recognition that his namesake garnered, his influence on the younger generations - including Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaughn is undeniable. Cream's Born Under A Bad Sign was just a simulacrum - a note for note tribute.In 1968, Albert played three nights at the legendary Fillmore West in San Francisco, and this recording, produced by Stax Records, documents that immortal outing. When you hear his dissertation on Blues Power - punctuated by those gleaming licks, that's all you need to know.
In a first for us hear at The Wolf, we're rebooting a previous episode with cool, never before heard material. On Episode 221 we did our usual track by track, in-depth analysis of Eric Clapton's Behind The Sun as it turned 40. It was a bit of a return to form for Clapton after he had worked to clean himself up and went platinum after some less than stellar albums in the early 80s. Still, songs She's Waiting and Forever Man turned out to be solid hits for Eric. Warner Brothers wanted the album to be a hit so they employed the hottest man in the business at the time, Phil Collins, to take Eric and his band down to Montserrat to put together a hit. However, Warner wasn't thrilled with the results so they had Eric come to LA to cover some songs written by Jerry Lynn Williams with some of the best session musicians of the day (and of all time). Eric's longtime guitar tech, Lee Dickson, has appeared on our show a couple of times before including on Ep 242 with Alan Hunter of MTV talking about Live Aid from Philadelphia. Lee gives us some color on how things went down in Montserrat, how a young producer almost ruined a six figure Martin guitar, how Sting popped up to say hello and contribute to the sessions and how Lee taught himself to swim while everyone else was at the beach. He also sheds some light on the LA sessions that Ted Templeman oversaw and how psyched Clapton was to work with some of the world's best session musicians like Steve Lukather, Greg Phillinganes and eventual member of his touring band, Nathan East. Lee tells a hilarious story about working with songwriter Jerry Lynn Williams and the character he was. Lee talks about the cool stuff they did making the album, we offer our track by track review including songs from the sessions that didn't make the album (one track made it into Back To The Future) and at the end he gives some inside information on what he does to make his artists sound incredible and life in rock n roll. It's a special edition we think you'll love.

Rock & Roll Hall of Famer Dave Mason chats about his early days in Traffic, writing the classic "Feelin' Alright?", working with Delaney & Bonnie, and so much more. PART ONEScott and Paul chat about Dave Mason's unique role in the rock & roll pantheon.PART TWOOur in-depth conversation with Dave Mason.ABOUT DAVE MASONAfter recording background vocals with The Spencer Davis Group on such hits as "Gimme Some Lovin'" and "I'm a Man," Dave Mason became a founding member of the British rock group Traffic alongside Steve Winwood, Jim Capaldi, and Chris Wood. He wrote some of the band's best-known songs, including “Hole in My Shoe” and “Feelin' Alright?” which went on to be covered in a memorable version by Joe Cocker. After touring and recording with Delaney & Bonnie (who recorded Dave's song “Only You Know and I Know”), he joined an early version of Eric Clapton's Derek & The Dominos. Dave soon left to pursue a solo career, beginning with the Alone Together album. He has released three Gold-certified solo albums and one Platinum album, Let It Flow, which featured the hit “We Just Disagree.” In addition to his solo releases and a duet album with Mama Cass Elliot, Dave has appeared on such legendary recordings as “Street Fighting Man” by the Rolling Stones, “All Along the Watchtower” by Jimi Hendrix, “Listen to What the Man Said” by Paul McCartney and Wings, as well as George Harrison's All Things Must Pass album. In the 1990s Dave spent time as a member of Fleetwood Mac, contributing original songs to the band's Time album in 1995. He has recorded with Michael Jackson, Graham Nash, Stephen Stills, Donovan, Phoebe Snow, and many others. Dave was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as a member of Traffic and, in 2024, published his memoir, Only You Know and I Know.
You might ask boys - if you've already done two 1+ hour episodes on Live Aid at 40, what more could you possibly have left for a third? The only thing we left out of episodes 1 & 2 were first hand accounts from the front or back of the stage that day, something we weren't privy to at the time due to the fact that we were 12 years old. So we enlisted two folks who there that day to help tell the real story - MTV VJ Alan Hunter and longtime Eric Clapton guitar tech Lee Dickson. Alan was one of the original 5 MTV VJs with Nina Blackwood, Martha Quinn, Mark Goodman and JJ Jackson. Alan was in Philadelphia that day as the stage boiled at close to 100 degrees. That made for a long day (18 hours on the air?) surrounded by legends and the hottest acts of the time. Alan tells what it was like to walk backstage among the many luminaries who were around that day, how he handled juggling being on MTV at the front of the stage to running backstage for interviews. And yes, he does discuss his much talked about interview with Phil Collins and the surviving members of Led Zeppelin after their infamous performance. A dream come true for a couple MTV kids to interview one of their heroes! LIsteners of the show know the Lee Dickson is full of humor and stories from his decades in the rock business. He's cavorted with the aristocracy of rock n roll and is entertaining in the way that he shares these tales from the road. He sets the record straight on how he handled Marshall amps that day while trying to find the right one for Eric and relates a story of how his plan to create a beautiful effect for the TV audience was thwarted by crazy roadies and stagehands. Lee also lets us know how you could cool off in the synthesizer room and find refreshment. It's a great view behind the scenes you won't find anywhere else and we think you'll love Lee's humorous delivery of his wild tales. July 13, 2025 marks the 40th anniversary of this extraordinary day in rock music, MTV and the lives of The Wolf & Action Jackson so we're releasing this special episode on that day to commemorate the extraordinary event.
