1975 - January: Led Zeppelin “Physical Graffiti”

By the time that Led Zeppelin was releasing their sixth studio album, they were solidly on top of the rock pantheon.  They had just switched to Swan Song Records, their own label, and had plenty of time to create this double album work, Physical Graffiti.  They had three sides-worth of new songs largely recorded at Headley Grange in Hampshire in early 1974, and they expanded it to a double album by including unreleased tracks from sessions for their previous three albums.  Physical Graffiti went to number 1 on the UK chart and number 3 on the US charts immediately.  They had planned to release the album in November 1974, but delays in producing the album's sleeve design pushed it back to February 1975.  Demand was so strong that it became the first album to go platinum on advance orders alone.The album itself reflects a diversity that runs from hard rock to prog rock to funk - even country and honky-tonk get represented.  The group never seemed too interested in creating single-friendly compositions, so many tracks run well over 6 minutes, along with some shorter instrumental numbers.  Led Zeppelin was considered the biggest rock band on tour during this time, and Physical Graffiti was the album that wrapped up this period.  Robert Plant was in a serious car accident with his wife in August 1975, and the group went on hiatus from touring until 1977.  Many consider this album to be the high water mark for the Led Zeppelin discography.  Bruce presents this monster double album for this week's podcast. KashmirThis is one of Led Zeppelin's signature songs.  It started as an instrumental recording from Jimmy Page and John Bonham.  Robert Plant wrote the lyrics while vacationing in southern Morocco (not Kashmir, as no band members had been there when this song was written).  John Paul Jones plays mellotron and added the orchestration which was played by session musicians.  All members of the band consider it one of their best tracks, and it has played in almost every concert since its debut.Trampled Under FootThis is a funk piece largely created by John Paul Jones.  The beat was inspired by Stevie Wonder's “Superstition,” and the lyrics are drawn largely from Robert Johnson's “Terraplane Blues.” Jones originally created this in the soul genre, but John Bonham convinced the group to add a more funky feel. The Wanton SongMany Led Zeppelin songs have a title which does not appear in the lyrics, and this is one of those.  Jimmy Page developed the riff in 1973 and brought it to the Physical Graffiti sessions.  Page uses a backward echo on this, where the echo appears before the note.  It was played during the 1975 tour but was dropped from the setlist thereafter, making it perhaps a deeper cut.  Houses of the HolyThis track is one of the unreleased tracks from previous sessions.  It was intended as the title track from their fifth album, but was considered too similar to other songs on the album and was dropped.  Led Zeppelin never played this song live.   ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Movin' On Up (Theme from the television series “The Jeffersons”) This sitcom was a spinoff from “All In the Family” which got its start in January 1975.  STAFF PICKS:Any Major Dude Will Tell You by Steely DanLynch kicks off the staff picks with the B-side from “Rikki Don't Lose That Number.” Donald Fagen says that the inspiration was hearing a lot of people using the term “dude” after they moved to L.A., finding the phrase funny and deciding to include it in a song.  The idea is that times will get better, and hope is around the corner.Cat's In the Cradle by Harry ChapinRob brings us a folk rock story about a father who finds the tables turned.  He didn't have time for his son as he was growing up, and his son doesn't have time for his father when he is older.  The lyrics were inspired by a poem written by Chapin's wife regarding her first husband's strained relationship with his father.Angie Baby by Helen ReddyWayne features another storytelling song, this one with some spookiness.  Angie is a girl of questionable sanity who lives in her own world at home with her parents.  When a neighborhood boy decides to make advances on her when her parents are gone, Angie causes him to disappear into the music of her radio…  It was a number 1 hit song.Changes by David BowieBruce closes out the staff picks with a song that largely flopped when originally released as a single in 1971.  Bowie's “Hunky Dory” album did not do well until it got a second look after his 1972 release “The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars.”  It was re-released in 1975 as a single and went to number 1 in the UK.   INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Bron-Yr-Aur by Led ZeppelinWe close out with some double dipping from Physical Graffiti for this acoustic instrumental.   Thanks for listening to “What the Riff?!?” NOTE: To adjust the loudness of the music or voices, you may adjust the balance on your device.

What an amazing year 1966 was in music. Dylan's Blonde on Blonde hit the racks. So did The Beatles' Revolver, The Beach Boys' Pet Sounds, The Stones' Aftermath and so many more.Into this stellar crowd quietly strolled Hums of the Lovin' Spoonful, the third studio album by Greenwich Village's own folk-rock mavens. Today the disc just barely makes it onto a list of the top 50 albums of that lush, flush year, but in its own way, it made wonderful waves.Hums — which would ultimately be the last full project by the Spoonful's original lineup — was the band's concerted effort to record in a wide variety of styles on a single disc. For it, they composed and played pop-, country-, jugband-, folk- and blues-fused tunes.The album spawned four charting singles, including “Summer in the City,” “Rain on the Roof,” “Nashville Cats” and "Full Measure.”Of “Nashville Cats,” principal songwriter John Sebastian said, "We thought our version would cross over to the country market. It never did. So we're always kinda, gee, well, I guess that tells us what we are — and what we aren't."Incidentally, Flatt & Scruggs did take "Nashville Cats" to the country charts, hitting No. 54 with it as a single.And elsewhere in the country crowd, Johnny Cash and June Carter covered Hums' “Darlin' Companion” on 1969's Johnny Cash at San Quentin album.About This Song“Loving You,” Hums' opening track, was never a hit single for the Spoonful, but a month after the disc's release in November 1966, Bobby Darin made the Top 40 with a cover version of the tune. Subsequently, the song also became a good vehicle for four different female vocalists, including Anne Murray (1969), Helen Reddy (1973) and Dolly Parton (1977) and Mary Black (1983).Meanwhile, the song came into the Floodisphere before The Flood was even The Flood.In 1975, after a year of regularly jamming together, Charlie and David started looking for new material to work on beyond their main interests in folk music, and for a brief time they landed on The Lovin' Spoonful's catalog.Here — like the audio version of a crinkled old baby picture — is a sound clip fished from The Flood archives. Click the button below to hear Charlie and Dave sampling the song exactly 50 years ago this week at a jam session at the Peyton House:The Spoonful's Jug Band RootsOnly later did Bowen and Peyton realize that The Lovin' Spoonful had been heavily influenced by some of the same 1920s-'30s jug band tunes that The Flood loves. Before he founded the Spoonful, John Sebastian with his partner Zal Yanovsky, long active in Greenwich Village's folk scene, set out to create an "electric jug band.”"Yanovsky and I were both aware of the fact that this commercial folk music model was about to change again,” Sebastian recalled, “that the four-man band that actually played their own instruments and wrote their own songs was the thing.”In early 1965, as they prepared for their first public performances, Sebastian and Yanovsky along with their new band mates Joe Butler and Steve Boone, searched for a name.It was Fritz Richmond, the washtub bass player for the Jim Kweskin Jug Band, who suggested “The Lovin' Spoonful,” referring to the lyrics of the song "Coffee Blues" by the country blues musician Mississippi John Hurt. It worked and it stuck.Our 2025 Take on the TuneAt last week's rehearsal, The Flood channeled those rich jug band roots of the Spoonful. For this tune, Jack switched from his usual drum kit to those funky wooden spoons and Charlie reached for the five-string. Then Danny, Sam and Randy just did what they always do to make it all work.

Probably the most impactful and challenging book we've read besides the Bible, CREATED TO BE HIS HELP MEET by Debi Pearl takes us back to God's Word for a closer look on women's role. To say this book is countercultural is stating the obvious. Society tells us (Happy wife, happy life)  women are above men and deserve to be served, however that robs us of our true God-given role. “A good help meet has a passion to be of service.”  1 Cor. 11:8-9 tells us why women were created, something that many in our culture omit.  “NO man has ever crawled out from under his wife's criticism to be a better man. God stands with you when you stand by your man, but you stand alone if you stand by your rights.”  We have 40,000 thoughts a day, if we are to have a thankful spirit we need to practice being thankful. Phil. 4:8 tells us what we should think on, Pro.23:7 says as a man thinks in his heart so is he…bottom line: thoughts are powerful!  Debi Pearl describes in detail the three kinds of men: Mr. Command, Mr. Visionary, and Mr. Steady. The Key is to know your man. Ask God for wisdom and patience, James 1:5. Wisdom is mentioned in the Bible 223 times! If you're like me, you might've been avoiding praying for patience. It often gets swept under the rug along with self-control, while I focus on the love, joy, and peace part of the fruit of the spirit. However, it is not a buffet, I must work on them all, including the Mt. Everest one for me… patience. This book has been a life changer for both of us, so I guess, in my case, old dogs can learn new tricks, bahaha! Won't you learn along with us as we dive into discussing God's role for women eons before Helen Reddy belted out, “I Am Woman Hear Me Roar”.  Roaring is not a fulfilling way to live this earthly walk at all. Change is hard. Are you up for the challenge?

1972 - July: Leon Russell “Carney”

What the Riff?!?

Play Episode Listen Later Jul 15, 2024 33:20


One of the great underappreciated singer-songwriters of the rock era was Tulsa, Oklahoma native Claude Russell Bridges, better known as Leon Russell.  Russell was a musician and songwriter with records spanning rock, folk, country, gospel, bluegrass, and blues who began playing piano at the age of four.  He went to the same high school as David Gates (from Bread), and the two collaborated as a group called The Fencemen early on.  Russell went to Los Angeles and worked as a studio musician.  The list of folks he worked with is huge, including Jan and Dean, the Beach Boys, George Harrison, Eric Clapton, the Byrds, Barbara Streisand, Bob Dylan, and the Rolling Stones.  He was a big part of the group Delaney and Bonnie, and was a primary inspiration to a then-upcoming pianist who went by the name Elton John.Russell was born with cerebral palsy, which produced some paralysis on his right side.  He walked with a limp, and he was bullied as a kid over it.  He also developed a piano playing style that favored his left hand, and keyboardists will recognize that as unusual since the right hand typically plays the melody on songs.We are looking at the third solo studio album from Leon Russell called Carney.  This is Russell's most successful album in the United States, and comes when he was at his height as both a musician and a performer.  It went to number 2 on the Billboard Album chart.  Carney is organized with a first side that tends toward folk or roots rock, and a side two that is more psychedelic.  Russell was quite the start at this time, and he found that fame had some downsides.  Carney contains observations about the rock star lifestyle, and compares it two the performers at a carnival midway.  Russell's fame as a solo performer would fall off about three years after this album when he would trend in a more country direction.  He remained a force in the studio and as a songwriter throughout his life.  Leon Russell passed in his sleep in 2016 at home while recovering from heart surgery.Bruce presents this icon of the singer-songwriter era in today's podcast, as previous host Brian Dickhute sits in this week in Lynch's absence. Manhattan Island SerenadeWe're leading off with a deeper cut from the album.  It's lyrics are told from the perspective of a guy broken down on the side of the road, thinking about a long lost love as the rain falls and the cars drive by.TightropeThis is the big hit off the album.  It went to number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100.  This song encapsulates the theme of the album well, comparing the rock performer to a tightrope walker, with all the risks and the joys of performing stunts in front of the crowd.  If the Shoe FitsRussell takes on the groupies and hangers-on in this song.  It's a little like Pink Floyd's “Have a Cigar,” but instead of focusing on managers taking advantage of the band, this song looks at the parasitical elements of the press and the fans.  It maintains a light, satirical feel despite the pessimism embedded in the lyrics.This MasqueradeWhile never a hit for Russell, this song received some airplay as the B-side to “Tightrope.”  It would also be covered by a number of artists including Helen Reddy and the Carpenters, but it's most successful cover iteration would be from George Benson on this “Breezin'” album. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Dueling Banjos (from the motion picture Deliverance)Burt Reynolds stars in this action/horror film about a group of rafters who encounter strange back woods locals while rafting in Georgia. STAFF PICKS:I Can See Clearly Now by Johnny NashWayne gets us rolling on the staff picks with an optimistic song which went to number 1 in 1972.  The inspiration was an eye surgery that Nash had undergone which left him temporarily blind.  The song reflects the hope and joy when he was able to see again, and inspires hope during times of adversity. You Don't Mess Around with Jim by Jim CroceRob brings us one of Croce's signature lyrical stories.  Jim Walker was the baddest pool hustler around until Slim showed up at the pool hall and cut Jim to ribbons in a fight. “You don't tug on Superman's cape, you don't spit into the wind, you don't pull the mask of the old Lone Ranger, and you don't mess around with Jim.” Too Late to Turn Back Now by the Cornelius Brothers & Sister RoseBrian features  a family soul singing group out of Florida formed in the 60's as a gospel group before adding Sister Rose in 1970. Carter, Eddie and Rose Cornelius released this single as a follow-up to their hit “Treat Her Like a Lady.”  The follow-up was even more successful than the former hit, going to number 2 in the Billboard Hot 100, while the previous hit went to number 3.  I Wanna Be Where You Are by Michael JacksonBruce's staff pick is the third single off MJ's debut solo album.  It went to number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100.  Leon Ware and Arthur “T-Boy” Ross wrote this song, and Arthur Ross is the brother of Diana Ross.  Michael Jackson was producing solo work while continuing as a member of the Jackson 5, and his brothers are singing backup on this song. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Outta Space by Billy PrestonWe close out this week's podcast with a little sci-fi funk.

Don McLean III is an American singer-songwriter, best known for his 1971 hit song "American Pie", an 8.5-minute folk rock "cultural touchstone" about the loss of innocence of the early rock and roll generation (US #1 for four weeks in 1972 and UK #2). Though some of his early musical influences included Frank Sinatra and Buddy Holly, as a teenager, Don became interested in folk music, particularly the Weavers' 1955 recording At Carnegie Hall. He often missed long periods of school because of childhood asthma, particularly music lessons, and although Don slipped back in his studies, his parents allowed his love of music to flourish. By age 16, he had bought his first guitar and began making contacts in the music business, becoming friends with the folk singers Erik Darling and Fred Hellerman of the Weavers. Don recorded his first album, Tapestry in 1969 in Berkeley, California during the student riots. After being rejected 72 times by labels, the album was finally picked up and released. Don worked on the album for a couple of years before putting it out. It attracted good reviews but little notice outside the folk community, although on the Easy Listening chart "Castles in the Air" was a success, and in 1973 "And I Love You So" also became a number 1 Adult Contemporary hit for crooner, Perry Como. Don's major break came when the record company he was with was taken over by United Artists Records, which gave him major label promotion for his second album, American Pie. The album launched two number one hits - the title song and "Vincent". American Pie's success made Don an international star overnight and piqued interest in his first album, which charted more than two years after its initial release. In 2004, he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In January 2018, BMI certified that "American Pie" and "Vincent" had reached five million and three million airplays respectively. His composition "And I Love You So" has been sung by Elvis Presley, Perry Como, Helen Reddy, Glen Campbell, and others, and in 2000, Madonna had a hit with a rendition of "American Pie". His other hit singles include "Vincent" , "Dreidel" , a rendition of Roy Orbison's "Crying", a rendition of the Skyliners' "Since I Don't Have You" , and "Wonderful Baby". Recently, the Grammy-award honoree and BBC Lifetime Achievement Award recipient has released his latest studio album, "American Boys" which pays tribute to his rock and roll heroes.

You're My Home was also recorded for the Songs in the Attic album in July of 1983 in Washington, D.C.

He had the head of a camel and the neck of a crocodile, but back in 1977, the one thing Pete's Dragon didn't have was much love from the critics. For all its star power, courtesy of Helen Reddy, Shelley Winters, Jim Dale, Red Buttons, and Mickey Rooney, the Disney live-action-meets-animated adventure did only flittering box office. But now, decades later, was the movie as misunderstood as Pete? How does the Oscar-nominated ballad “Candle on the Water” hold up against other Disney songs?

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth Interview with Harriet Schock & Gary Lynn Floyd about the Music of Harriet Schock About Harvey's guests: Today we're celebrating the music of one of America's greatest and most iconic songwriters, Harriet Schock.   She's written many hit songs including “Hollywood Town”, “First Time on a Ferris Wheel”, “You Are”, “Rosebud”, “Worn Around the Edges”, “It Tears at Me”, and of course, the multi-platinum selling, Grammy-nominated “Ain't No Way to Treat a Lady”, recorded by Helen Reddy.   Most recently, Harriet wrote and recorded the poignant and emotionally powerful coming out anthem “I am Yours”, which I'm very proud to say, was inspired by my story and my struggle to gain parental acceptance after telling my parents that I was gay when I was 19.    Harriet is here, making her 3rd appearance on our show, to discuss her highly anticipated, magnificent new album entitled “Paintings”, and she will be singing the title track from the album during this interview.   The album has been released to coincide with an upcoming new documentary film about her, entitled “Hollywood Town: The Harriet Schock Story”.    And joining Harriet, making his 2nd appearance on our show, is a highly popular singer-songwriter whose heartfelt recording of “I am Yours”, which he performed the last time he was on our show, led to the making of a beautiful new album of some of Harriet Schock's most beloved and enduring songs, entitled, “Present Schock:  The Songs of Harriet Schock”.  One of the hit songs from this album is a newly reimagined rendition of “Ain't No Way to Treat a Lady”, sung from the male perspective, and Gary will be performing the song for us on today's show.  For more interviews and podcasts go to: https://www.harveybrownstoneinterviews.com/ To see more about Harriet Schock and Gary Lynn Floyd, go to:https://harrietschock.com/https://www.facebook.com/harriet.schockhttps://twitter.com/harrietschockhttps://garylynnfloyd.com/https://www.facebook.com/GaryLynnFloyd/https://www.instagram.com/garylynnfloyd/https://twitter.com/garylynnfloydhttps://www.youtube.com/user/garylynnfloydmusic  #HarrietSchock   #GaryLynnFloyd   #harveybrownstoneinterviews

For multiple Grammy, CMA, ACM Award-winning producer Keith Stegall, music has always been his life, strongly influenced by his dad, 1950s Abbott Records recording artist, Bob Stegall. The elder Stegall also played steel guitar for the legendary country singer Johnny Horton. Born in the central Texas town of Wichita Falls and raised in Shreveport (the home of the Louisiana Hayride, a stage his father often graced) the Stegalls were constantly playing and writing songs on guitars and the piano. It was by chance he met another famous Texan, Kris Kristofferson, who inspired Keith to move to Music City. “Show me what you've got!” Kris told Keith backstage at a Kristofferson show. Keith played a couple songs, which prompted Kristofferson to remark, “Son, you need to get your ass to Nashville and hang out with other writers. They will break you down and make you the best you can be.” Keith took the advice to heart and three months after his arrival in 1978, Keith co-wrote his first hit, Dr. Hooks' 1980 smash Sexy Eyes. Soon after, Helen Reddy, The Commodores, Johnny Mathis, and many others rushed to record Keith's songs. Most notable was Al Jarreau's career hit We're In This Love Together. Eventually Keith signed a record deal with Capitol Records and later Epic Records. He released a pair of albums in the early 1980s with minor chart success. “Because I grew up in the studio,” Keith recalls, “the mistake I made was that they told me to produce myself.” The upside, he says, was he learned how to produce other artists by producing himself. In the midst of trying to get his own artist career off the ground, a struggling nightclub singer named Randy Ray asked Keith to produce an independent album to sell at his local gigs. The project led to Keith producing the standout songs On The Other Hand and Reasons I Cheat on the singer's epochal debut, “Storms of Life,” under the singer's new moniker… Randy Travis.

What a glorious reunion with the brilliantly talented prolific songstress, Harriet Schock, who wrote the Grammy-nominated #1 hit, Ain't No Way To Treat A Lady, and her stunningly talented, vocal accomplice, Andrea Ross-Green. It was thrilling to hear them again in perfect harmony with new songs from Harriet's upcoming album, Paintings (the title track she treated us to is an absolute killer), as well as the mash-up of her Ain't No Way to Treat A Lady and One Time Lover. We were also treated to my request, Over and Over, one of my all-time favorite Schock classics, and My Now, a new tune from her soon to drop, Paintings. We went back to Dallas, her musician doctor father who encouraged her with all his heart, coming to LA, the heartbreak that inspired that #1 hit, being covered by The Partridge Family, Helen Reddy, Manfred Man, Johnny Mathis, Smokey Robinson, Roberta Flack, to name just some, her films with Henry Jaglom, ongoing songwriting workshops which attract the creme de l creme in LA and now with Zoom, from around the world. Harriet's system she maintains is full-proof. Her scores of talented, thriving students offer proof. Come in with nothing, leave with a song. A well-crafted, good one at that, whether you're a seasoned pro or a beginner. Interested? Contact Harriet at HarrietSchock@gmail.com In addition to Harriet's new album, there's an upcoming show at The Coffee Gallery, A Lifetime Achievement Award, Gary Lynn Floyd's new album, Present Schock: The Songs of Harriet Schock, and Tom Solari's documentary, Hollywood Town, The Harriet Schock Story. I'm exhausted typing it. I adore this woman and her music. Harriet and I appeared in Henry's The M Word and spent countless Tuesdays over the last decade sharing creative adventures and miracles at Women Who Write, where Harriet also performed at least a half dozen times. It was fantastic to catch up with this treasured friend and be treated to her magnificent music. Ditto Andrea!

The REAL TRUTH behind how he gets his songs and arrangements to sound so pretty, difference for him being a sideman and playing his own material, most fun he's ever had playing music, and why it's “Never going to be as good as it is in your head…” LOADS of fun and laughs, great convo with a first class guy Cool Guitar, Music & ELG T-Shirts!: http://www.GuitarMerch.com   Richard Bennett has been a studio and touring guitarist with Mark Knopfler, since 1994... and he spent 17 years & 12 LPs before that in the same role with Neil Diamond. He's also produced Neil Diamond, Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Jo-El Sonnier, Marty Stuart & others. And here's a very small sample of the people he's played with since his first session in 1968: Ringo Starr, Lonnie Donegan, Conway Twitty, Sammy Davis Jr, Johnny Mathis, Roseanne Cash, Ray Price, Waylon Jennings, Smokey Robinson, Gladys Knight, the Four Tops, Barbara Streisand, Chubby Checker, Glen Campbell, Duane Eddy, T-Bone Walker, Billy Joel, Helen Reddy, Vince Gill, Sheryl Crow, hundreds of others, and about a dozen movie soundtracks including The Wrecking Crew documentary and one of my favorite movies, Westworld Richard just released his 7th solo instrumental LP, called Tall Tales Tunes.

Going Rogue With Caitlin Johnstone

I stand here before you in my mother's hand-me-downs, in this world where mothers must work like they don't have children and parent like they don't have jobs, keeping households running and bills paid while their hearts run around outside their bodies on tiny little legs that don't yet know where the wolves are, but don't you dare over-mother them, or under-mother them, or get anything wrong while treading laundry and kung fuing the kitchen and, oh yeah, if you could save the world from nuclear armageddon and environmental collapse when you get a minute that'd be great. I stand here before you in my mother's hand-me-downs, with my mother's strangled voice, and my mother's Pinesol hands, and my mother's weeping back, and my mother's feral chores, and my mother's loving patience, and my mother's gritted teeth, and my mother's inner beauty that you never get to see — her inner world of unheard symphonies and unpainted art and oceans of sleeping babies, neatly stuffed into a housecoat drowned out by a Helen Reddy song. I stand here before you in my mother's hand-me-downs, glaring with crosshair eyes at eelfaced manipulators who blacken the children's sky, who poison my children's water, who microplastic my children's blood, who scorch my children's Earth to turn billionaires into trillionaires, vowing "I see you, I'll stop you, right after this dentist appointment, right after this assignment, right after these taxes, right after this to-do list, I'll be ready to stop you in, like, two more weeks, maybe, or maybe two weeks after that." I stand here before you in my mother's hand-me-downs, with my mother's intuition (two eyes in the back of her head — "I can see what you are doing!"), but my many eyes can only glance before more dishes pile up before the to-do list unfurls  — I'll get to it, I'll get to you, I'll stop you, I will, I see what you are doing, I just need to take the kids to daycare but make the sandwiches first and stop off on the way to work for a part to fix the air con before the summer comes before the heat you stoked with dinosaur bones and Canary Island loopholes and the infantile ambitions of impotent men hits our little rental (that I'm so grateful to have so grateful I am on-my-hands-and-knees grateful your-cock-in-my-throat grateful please don't kick us out we love you we do) like a solar wind storm barbecuing my children in this tent made of weatherboards like a tiny funeral pyre for bad women, naughty witches, ladies flying solo who need to be put in their place. Just two weeks. Just two weeks. Just two weeks more. Just two weeks and I'll sit in silence for while. Just two weeks and I'll write this all down. Just two weeks I need to get this stuff done.

Harvey Brownstone conducts an in-depth interview with Jim Keaton, President - Official Helen Reddy Fan Club & Harriet Schock – Multi-Platinum Singer / Songwriter About Harvey's guest:Today is September 29, 2022, and we have a very special show for you.  We're commemorating the 2-year anniversary of the passing of a legendary music artist, the incomparable Helen Reddy.   We'll be paying tribute to Helen in a number of ways.   If you've been following our show from the very beginning, you'll know that we started with a comprehensive 4-part interview series with Helen Reddy's dear friend and President of the Official Helen Reddy Fan Club, Jim Keaton.  That 4-part series has been completely remastered to include photos and video clips.  And it's being released on all of our platforms today.  Jim also appeared on our show with Unjoo Moon, the director of the Helen Reddy biopic entitled, “I am Woman”, now appearing on Netflix.    And today, Jim is back with the brilliant multi-platinum singer-songwriter Harriet Schock, who is making her 3rd appearance on our show.   Harriet wrote several songs recorded by Helen Reddy, including the Grammy nominated “Ain't No Way to Treat a Lady”, which she performed LIVE on our show earlier this year.    Last month, Harriet returned to our show, and honoured me by performing a profoundly moving song that she wrote, called “I am Yours”, which was inspired by the struggles I faced after coming out to my parents.  If you haven't heard that song yet, Harriet's performance can be seen on our YouTube channel, and you can download the song on Harriet's website, HARRIETSCHOCK.COM.    Today, Harriet is honouring us with a performance of her brand new song entitled, “Because You Lived”, inspired by Jim Keaton's deep and abiding 50-year friendship with Helen Reddy.   For more interviews and podcasts go to: https://www.harveybrownstoneinterviews.com/ https://harrietschock.com/https://twitter.com/harrietschockhttps://www.facebook.com/harriet.schock/https://www.instagram.com/jimsreddy/https://twitter.com/keaton_jim

I'm feeling pretty empowered after talking with founder of the Divine Living Brand and author of "The Audacity To Be Queen" this week. She really got me to thinking about what it means to be feminine and how the feminine instinct has been injured so long by the need of all women to express their masculinity to get ahead.Mike had to STAND BACK this week in case I was going to blow estrogen all over him. It could have happened because "I am woman, hear me roar"....cue Helen Reddy.We hope you have a wonderful week and find all kinds of ways to empower yourself. Much love to all - and don't forget to RATE AND REVIEW - but only if it's good.LLM
