"What I Deserve" Over the course of almost fifteen albums, Kelly Willis has made a pretty good case that she's one of the greats. The Oklahoma-born singer/songwriter is not only a beautiful and affecting singer, her phrasing is filled with purring vowels, consonants fearlessly taking sharp corners and delicious diction which powers each number with authority, vulnerability and grace. Willis' career has a pretty good stockpile of highlights and here's a few for you: She's collaborated with Allison Kraus, Vince Gill, Jay Faraar of Son Volt and Chuck Prophet, a few of her songs were in Thelma and Louise, she was in the movie Bob Roberts, she's played all over the world, including Hardly Strictly Bluegrass here in San Francisco, put out a holiday album with her ex-husband Bruce Robison and is now celebrating the 25th anniversary of her 1999 album What I Deserve. And what to say about that album? Well, it's an absolute classic and the new edition is a must-have. Kelly is really sweet and very honest and this was a delight. www.kellywillis.com (http://www.kellywillis.com) www.bombshellradio.com (http://www.bombshellradio.com) www.stereoembersmagazine.com (http://www.stereoembersmagazine.com) www.alexgreenbooks.com Instagram: @emberspodcast Bluesky: @emberspodcast Editor: editor@stereoembersmagazine.com (mailto:editor@stereoembersmagazine.com)

Editor's note: For this episode, we invited our friend Mark Erelli to interview Chuck Prophet. The two are familiar with each other's work through songwriting together for Mark's latest album Lay Your Darkness Down (2023). We're thrilled to welcome Mark back as guest host!Chuck Prophet has been a mainstay on the indie and Americana music scenes since the 1980s, before either designation was a common part of the rock 'n' roll lexicon. Through his guitar work in the seminal psychedelic desert rock band Green On Red, musical collaborations with Kelly Willis, Kim Richey, and Warren Zevon, and a string of over a dozen solo records, Prophet has carved out a respected niche in rock music history with his “California Noir” sound. It's a streak he probably could have kept riding for the rest of his career, if not for his sudden diagnosis with lymphoma a couple years ago. During his treatment and eventual recovery from cancer, Prophet found solace in his record collection—in particular the vibrant rhythms and danceable energy of Cumbia. He eventually sought out a favorite local band in the genre to jam, and then formally collaborate on Wake The Dead, Prophet's first new solo album in four years. The project blends his longtime band The Mission Express with members of the Cumbia outfit Quiensave, and the result is equal parts familiar and fresh.I have firsthand knowledge of Prophet's freewheeling collaborative process, having worked with him and his longtime songwriting partner Klipschutz on a song for my 2020 album Blindsided. I once taught with Chuck at a folk festival songwriting school, and was relieved to be able to play before him at the instructor open mic, because no one wants to follow Chuck Prophet. His musical catalog is so deep and broad that it's both inspiring…and a bit overwhelming. It was a joy to re-connect with him for a wide-ranging conversation about his new album, that also touched upon his sense of humor, guitar playing techniques, surfing culture, and even his favorite Bob Seger song.Follow Basic Folk on social media: https://basicfolk.bio.link/Sign up for Basic Folk's newsletter: https://bit.ly/basicfolknewsHelp produce Basic Folk by contributing: https://basicfolk.com/donate/Interested in sponsoring us?

For some, the process of making music can appear effortless. For others, bringing one's music to life might take decades. The music welling up in the heart and mind of its creator, like a fine wine, or in this case, one of the finest debut albums, by any artist, in any genre, in many decades. One could say that Tommy Taylor has one of those classic “you don't know me, but you've heard me” musician stories. He has spent years as the drummer and backing vocalist behind singer/songwriter (Grammy and Oscar winner) Christopher Cross and guitarist Eric Johnson. Tommy has also played behind: Stevie Ray Vaughan, Charlie Sexton, Will Sexton, Sara Hickman, Charlie and Bruce Robison, Kelly Willis, Jake Andrews, Jerry Jeff Walker, Ray Benson and Shawn Colvin.Tommy has been preparing himself and his music for years to become the album Across The Stars. It is a recording comprised of what Taylor calls “Chekovian vignettes” - nine cinematic stories filtered through a lifetime of insights and emotions, delivered in his tenor voice that falls somewhere between the lilt of Jackson Browne's and the edge of Don Henley. Taylor's lyrics are incredibly personal and incredibly universal simultaneously. Who hasn't felt like the people in your life were there to “Let You Down?” Taylor describes himself as an observer. However, the songs on this album are filled with the stories and experience you get by living - not by watching. At the end of the 9 songs, you are left with a man's personal catharsis, and you are the richer for having had the experience. After years of his friends and colleagues encouraging Tommy to write his songs and get them recorded, Taylor finally went in the studio and started work on the album. With a little help from Christopher Cross, legendary record producer and keyboardist Michael Omartian (Christopher Cross, Donna Summer, Rod Stewart, Amy Grant, Steely Dan, Glen Campbell, Boz Scaggs, Jerry Garcia and Dolly Parton) agreed to play on Tommy's album.  After finishing his work and hearing the final mixes Michael said: “Man, this is a really good album. Everything sounds great. Wonderful songs and the overall production and musicianship is first rate.” That was on top of praise for Taylor's vocals on various tracks, and his declaration that the song “Everybody's Gonna Let You Down” “sounds like a smash.” You might catch yourself singing along to that chorus the very first time you hear it.Michael Omartian's words are a priceless endorsement, especially for an artist whose debut work has taken a few decades to arrive. But in his Across The Stars liner notes, Taylor explains, “This first effort is a culmination of a lifetime of personal ups and downs, and interests and pursuits.” Isn't that a perfect description of a life well-lived? Across the Stars was released on September 22nd, 2023.https://tommytaylor.com/homeSupport the showThanks for listening for more information or to listen to other podcasts or watch YouTube videos click on this link >https://thetroutshow.com/

This past March 20th the United Nation's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published its fourth and last sixth assessment cycle (AR6) report.  This last report integrates the main findings of the IPCC's three, sixth assessment working group reports published over the past 18 months.  The report has been informally termed the “last warning” since the IPCC 7th assessment work will likely not be published until after 2030 - at which time we'll know whether we have succeeded or not in reducing CO2e emissions by approximately 45% in order to limit avg global warming to the preferred Paris climate accord goal of 1.5C.  Among other conclusions the IPCC authors warned, “There is a rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a livable and sustainable future for all.”  “The choices and actions implemented in this decade will have impacts now and for thousands of years.”   The UN Secretary General, Antonio Guterres, termed this last report “a clarion call to massively fast-track climate efforts by every country, every sector and on every timeframe.”  An excellent summary of the AR6 fourth report was published in late March by Carbon Brief, at: https://www.carbonbrief.org/carbon-briefs-definitive-guide-to-the-entire-ipcc-sixth-assessment-cycle/.This 35-minute interview Ms. Willis discusses Malaria No More's work, related/relevant IPCC findings and those in context of her attendance last month at a climate/health summit meeting in Abu Dhabi held in preparation for subsequent related discussions during this coming December's IPCC COP 28 meeting also taking place in the UAE.  Ms. Kelly Willis is currently the Managing Director of Strategic Initiatives at Malaria No More.  Ms. Willis has more than 20 years of experience working in infectious disease and global health, helping to build permanent capacity in health systems throughout sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia, in roles including Senior Vice President at United States Pharmacopeia, Executive Director of Accordia Global Health Foundation and through her consulting firm Willis Solutions LLC.  Ms. Willis's field experience includes several years living in East Africa where she helped launch and support the Infectious Diseases Institute at Makerere University and led a multi-year research program to better understand the impact of medical training programs on standards of care and health outcomes.  Prior to that, Ms. Willis spent five years in multiple finance and economics management roles at Pfizer where she also served as a Global Health Fellow in Uganda.   She holds a Distinguished Alumni award from Michigan State University where she earned a BA in French and an MBA in Supply Chain Management.The IPCC report is at: https://report.ipcc.ch/ar6syr/pdf/IPCC_AR6_SYR_SPM.pdf.   This is a public episode.

A Place For My Stuff - Yes I have/had another podcast.  A couple of podcasts actually.  With the rising price of everything, I opted not to pay to have Inside the Guest Studio available forever.   I have this convenient landing spot called My Alien Life Podcast which WILL remain forever - thus, this is part of my life, as will be the episodes of Inside the Guest Studio.  A podcast that is graced by some unique and very talented people that live slightly off the grid. Enjoy Cameron In 1982 I walked into a music store in Kalispell Montana and heard his hit Someday Some Way...  I was hooked.  From that day forward, the cassette I purchased before going to Bible camp, was in every car I ever owned until 2015.  I mailed the cassette to my friend who had gotten out of drug treatment.  We listened to that cassette so many times in my car during high school.  The cassette arrived in his mailbox, SMASHED...   I was crushed. It was my indeed pleasure to interview, Marshall Crenshaw.  My hero.   Marshall Howard Crenshaw (born November 11, 1953) is an American musician, singer, songwriter, and guitarist best known for hit songs such as "Someday, Someway," a US Top 40 hit in 1982, "Cynical Girl," and "Whenever You're on My Mind." He is also the co-author of one of the biggest radio hits of the ‘90s, the Gin Blossoms, "Til I Hear It From You." His music has roots in classic soul music and Buddy Holly, to whom Crenshaw was often compared in the early days of his career, and whom he portrayed in the 1987 film La Bamba. Born in Michigan, Crenshaw performed in the musical Beatlemania before releasing his self-titled album in 1982. Crenshaw could not replicate the commercial success of Marshall Crenshaw and follow-up Field Day (1983) with later albums. Crenshaw has also contributed songs to other artists, writing singles for Kirsty MacColl and the Gin Blossoms. A quote from Trouser Press summed up Marshall Crenshaw's early career: "Although he was seen as a latter-day Buddy Holly at the outset, he soon proved too talented and original to be anyone but himself."[   Marshall Crenshaw on Marshall Crenshaw — “One of the fundamental things about the project was that I set out to not make an album,” Marshall Crenshaw notes. “So I did this project, and now at the end of it, there's this album, for the album fans!….” The celebrated singer-songwriter-guitarist-producer is discussing #392: The EP Collection, his new CD on the Red River Entertainment label. The 14-track set collects a dozen standout tracks drawn from the innovative series of six 10” vinyl EPs that Crenshaw released between 2013 and 2015, plus a pair of never-before-heard rarities chosen especially for this collection. The EP series was the product of Crenshaw's decision to break away from the standard album/tour cycle by recording and releasing a steady stream of new music over an extended period. The endeavor proved wildly popular with his fans, and brought in lots of “I really did love the EP project, and I'm kind of sad that it's over,” Crenshaw comments. “I was looking for a different way of working that would keep me motivated; it was cool, because it had a sense of urgency; there was always something that had just come out and always something that was on the way. It was an inspiring way to work.” #392: The EP Collection's twelve studio recordings encompass six new Crenshaw originals and six cover songs. The former group includes the bittersweet and beautiful “Grab the Next Train,” the surging and howling “Move Now,” and the hypnotic and atmospheric “Driving and Dreaming”, while the cover numbers include a reverent remake of the Burt Bacharach/Hal David/Carpenters chestnut “Close to You,” James McMurtry's “Right Here Now,” longtime Crenshaw favorite Bobby Fuller's classic “Never to Be Forgotten” and vintage numbers by the Easybeats, the Move and the Lovin' Spoonful. Rounding out #392: The EP Collection are two previously unreleased tracks: a powerful live version of the Everly Brothers classic “Man with Money,” recorded with Crenshaw's frequent touring partners the Bottle Rockets, during the week after Phil Everly's passing, and the infectious “Front Page News,” a '90s recording of a previously-unheard original that Crenshaw wrote with noted country tunesmith Leroy Preston (“I can't remember when I did it, or why, but I like it!”, says Crenshaw). “I was fortunate to have lots of brilliant people helping me on these tracks, and they really lifted the proceedings,” Crenshaw reports. “I'm proud about the range of super-excellent musicians who came on board for these sessions.” #392: The EP Collection includes contributions from avant-jazz trumpet icon Stephen Bernstein, noted jazz vibraphonist Bryan Carrott, versatile Nashville bassist Byron House, Daniel Littleton of the band Ida, renowned composer/keyboardists Rob Morsberger and Jamie Saft, along with longstanding Crenshaw cohorts like guitarists Glen Burtnick and Andy York, bassist Graham Maby, Brian Wilson/Beach Boys sideman Jeffrey Foskett, and acclaimed indie troubadour Dan Bern, who co-wrote four songs with Crenshaw. Meanwhile, on several tracks, Crenshaw worked on his own in his home studio, overdubbing all or most of the instruments and vocal harmonies himself. Crenshaw states, “I've been into the Narcissist, solitary-genius thing for a long time. For instance, “‘Cynical Girl,' on my first album, is just me, and ‘Someday Someway' is my brother on drums and me on everything else. So working alone sometimes is standard procedure for Over the course of a recording career that's spanned three decades, 13 albums and hundreds of songs, the Michigan-bred artist's musical output has maintained a consistently high level of artistry, craftsmanship and passion, endearing him to a broad and loyal fan After getting an early break playing John Lennon in a touring company of the Broadway musical Beatlemania, Crenshaw began his recording career with the now-legendary indie single “Something's Gonna Happen.” His growing notoriety in his adopted hometown of New York City helped to win Crenshaw a deal with Warner Bros. Records, which released his self-titled 1982 debut album. That collection established Crenshaw as one of the era's preeminent rock ' n' rollers, and that was confirmed by such subsequent albums as Field Day, Downtown, Mary Jean & 9 Others, Good Evening, Life's Too Short, Miracle of Science, #447, What's in the Bag? and Jaggedland. Along the way, Crenshaw's compositions have been covered by a broad array of performers, including Bette Midler, Kelly Willis, Robert Gordon, Ronnie Spector, Marti Jones and the Gin Blossoms, with whom Crenshaw co-wrote the Top 10 single “Til I Hear It From You.” He's also provided music for several film soundtracks, appeared in the films La Bamba (in which he portrayed Buddy Holly) and Peggy Sue Got Married, and was nominated for Grammy and a Golden Globe awards for writing the title track for the film comedy Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story. Since 2011, Crenshaw has hosted his own radio show, The Bottomless Pit, on New York's WFUV. He's currently working on Martin Scorsese and Mick Jagger's much-anticipated HBO series Vinyl, doing “some session work, a little bit of songwriting..” His eclectic resume aside, songwriting and record-making remain at the center of Marshall Crenshaw's creative life, and #392: The EP Collection confirms that his musical flame continues to burn as brightly as ever. “I still love recorded music and believe in it as an art form, whether it's a single or album, or vinyl or CD,” Crenshaw asserts, adding, “I think I'll probably stick with it.”

It is a cliché that blood is thicker than water, but its also true. And my next guests are living proof. Bonnie and Eleanor Whitmore of the Whitmore Sisters have just released their first album as a duo. Ghost Stories is an emotional powerhouse. And it is full of inspiration. Eleanor and Bonnie have been in and around the Americana genre for pretty much their whole lives. Eleanor and her husband Chris Masterson make up folk rock duo The Mastersons, and they also play in Steve Earle's backing band The Dukes. Bonnie, meanwhile, has released a number albums over the years and has played with a who's who—James McMurtry, Bruce Robison, Kelly Willis, on and on and on. Despite their roots, Ghost Stories is their first album together, and let's hope there's more to come. We talk about four songs —Hurtin' for a Letdown, Ghost Stories, Greek Tragedy, and The Ballad of Sissy and Porter. We talk about death, drugs, influences, and, of course, songwriting. We also talk about life—celebrating and appreciating the simple act of being alive. This interview gets pretty heavy at times, so be ready. It is my high honor to welcome Eleanor and Bonnie Whitmore to For Songs.

ALL HEART MULTI-HYPHENATEActor/Musician Savannah Welch is known for her acting roles in the HBO Max series TITANS, Oscar nominated film BOYHOOD directed by Richard Linklater; TREE OF LIFE starring Brad Pitt and Jessica Chastain; and a recurring guest starring role as ex-Marine Dawn on the History Channel's SIX…among a colorful portfolio of independent films, in which Welch often deep dives into characters informed by varying degrees of music.​Growing up in Nashville, she was submerged in the southern culture of the country music industry, raised by her beautiful Okie folks who miraculously evolved into progressive hippies of the 80's variety. The landscape was a terrain of spiritual sculpture and creative inspiration with permission to follow it; yet, the level of talent and validity existing within this environment scripted intimidation that set a bar too high to start. Most influential were the musicians and songwriters including her acclaimed father, Kevin Welch, and prodigious older brother Dustin. Savannah decided that's what “they” did, and pursued a career in film production and acting…all the while, playing and writing songs when no one was looking. She co-wrote many songs that have been cut on other artists' records, including the title track on the Bruce Robison and Kelly Willis' Americana Music Awards album of the year nominated, Cheater's Game, I Had To Give That Up Too recorded by Sammy Kershaw, and is the recipient of several SESAC Awards. Eventually, performing caught up to her and she became one of the founding members of the Texas/Tennessee collaborative girl group, The Trishas.​Savannah has always been passionate about parenting, long before she had her son. She trained to become a birth doula, and an accredited Attached At The Heart Parent educator in 2014.Connect with Savannah: Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/savannahwelch/?hl=en Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/vanrosewelch Twitter - https://twitter.com/vanrosewelch Website - https://www.savannahwelch.com/ Follow The Story Box on Social MediaINSTAGRAM ► - https://www.instagram.com/thestoryboxpodcast/ TWITTER ► - https://twitter.com/jay_fantom FACEBOOK ► - https://www.facebook.com/thestoryboxpodcast WEBSITE ► - https://thestoryboxpodcast.com/SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE!

Opening Monologues. Biden the Laughingstock of the world. Mocked by China, Russia and North Korea. Falls down three times trying to get up the stairs to Air Force One. No pressers, no SOTU. Massive Border Crisis. And when Kamala does finally get installed as President -- we can expect an even greater laughingstock. Not ready for prime time. Fully half the American People do not think addled Biden is actually really doing his job as President. Our corrupt political Establishment has rigged us into this situation, and now they've certainly got their hands full. Incompetent, unpopular and only snowballing. How embarrassing to be an American in the Biden Era. With Listener Calls & Music via Duran Duran, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles and Kelly Willis. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A través de la plataforma Bandcamp se ha puesto a disposición de quien lo desee la descarga por 1 dólar de esta versión del clásico de Bob Dylan de 1964 “The Times They Are A-Changin’” en apoyo de Feeding America. En este caso nos encontramos con la renovada Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, acompañada por Jason Isbell, Rosanne Cash, War and Treaty y Steve Earle. La solidaridad con los más afectados por la pandemia ha movilizado a determinados artistas para hacer efectivo su apoyo. Otra de las vías es Songs From Quarantine, un proyecto liderado por Rodney Crowell que se puede descargar y en la que todos los beneficios van a parar a Music Health Alliance. Allí están Ry Cooder, Elvis Costello, Jeff Tweedy, Keith Urban, Lucinda Williams, Steve Earle, Rosanne Cash con John Leventhal y los Milk Carton Kids, John Hiatt o Ronnie Dunn, entre otros. No podíamos tener mejor comienzo para nuestro TOMA UNO de hoy, en el Día Mundial de la Radio. The Next Waltz Vol, 3 de ha convertido en el álbum favorito de la Americana Music Association con canciones de Jack Ingram o Bruce Robison junto a su mujer Kelly Willis, perfectos anfitriones de esta aventura sonora en que que todo es analógico, sin ordenadores, ni efectos digitales, ni autotune. También ha regresado a la sencillez Jeremy Parsons en un nuevo álbum de mirada al pasado y esperanza de recorrer nuevos caminos. Esa mirada atrás es mucho más intensa en los Bellamy Brothers que junto a John Anderson rinden homenaje a los puntales de la country music. Por su parte, Dale Watson ha sido el apoyo sonoro de la última película de la filipina Diane Paragas sobre una emigrante de aquel país en Austin, y también nos acaba de anticipar su primer álbum instrumental con sabores propios de Sun Records en la ciudad de Memphis a la que se ha mudado en los últimos tiempos. Richie Albright, batería de Waylon Jennings desde 1961 y una leyenda de la Outlaw music, ha muerto el pasado martes y hemos querido recordarle en los Waymore's Outlaws y junto a Shooter Jennings, a quien su padre le puso Albright como segundo nombre. Y en la despedida nos alegramos especialmente por la publicación de un álbum de temas inéditos del actor Harry Dean Stanton, que recupera su inolvidable faceta musical. Escuchar audio

La salida de esta pandemia va a suponer cambios importantes en las más diversas facetas en nuestras vidas. La música tiene para muchos de nosotros una importancia casi capital que, por supuesto, no ensombrece en absoluto, otras prioridades. Al contrario, en ocasiones, sirve de apoyo y nos ayuda a paliar de alguna forma la inquietud y la incertidumbre. Por eso no podemos dejar de aplaudir iniciativas que apoyan una #CulturaSegura y propuestas como Lu's Jukebox In Studio Concert Series, una serie digital de conciertos temáticos nacidos en los días del Covid, ya grabados en directo por Lucinda Williams y su banda en el estudio que el productor Ray Kennedy tiene en Nashville. Se trata de seis episodios de los artistas de Louisiana incorpora alguna sorpresa. Los programas se emitirán en streaming bajo pago y se prevé que se editen posteriormente en CD y vinilo. Lu's Jukebox recaudará fondos para ayudar fundamentalmente a las salas de conciertos y promotores, recibiendo un porcentaje de la venta de entradas. Lucinda Williams, grabó en 1988 su tercer álbum, de título homónimo, donde incluyó “Changed The Locks”, una canción que Tom Petty incluiría junto a los Heartbreakers en Songs and Music from the Motion Picture "She's the One", el noveno álbum de estudio del grupo que, además, sirvió como banda sonora a la película que dirigió Edward Burns. Hoy ha abierto nuestro tiempo de radio, en el que vamos a precisar el pulso de la Americana. Ha pasado poco más de un año desde la edición del disco de debut de las Highwomen, y nos surgen ciertas dudas sobre el papel de Maren Morris en la formación, mientras han ido tomando cada vez más relevancia las apariciones de Sheryl Crow y Yola, que fueron invitadas a aquel registro y han participado en las pocas apariciones en directo del supergrupo. La actualidad nos ha regalado una nueva canción surgida de las sesiones de aquel álbum junto al productor Dave Cobb. La protagonista es la británica Yola acompañada, eso sí, por Brandi Carlile y Natalie Hemby en los coros, Sheryl Crow al piano y Jason Isbell en la guitarra. "Hold On" es una especie de conversación con la próxima generación de jóvenes negros en la que se les pide que ocupen su espacio, sean visibles y muestren su talento. Destiny Hotel es la mejor secuela posible de That Santa Fe Channel, el álbum de 2018 para Cordovas, en el que no ocultaba sus inclinaciones por Grateful Dead. Además, el grupo que lidera Joe Firstman ha extendido ahora sus afectos hacia The Band, con armonías vocales y ritmos entrecortados propios de la mítica formación canadiense, sumando también retazos de las raíces sureñas de los Allman Brothers. Al fin y al cabo, este nuevo trabajo rememora los mejores sonidos que se escucharon durante la década de los 70. El tono de nostalgia y ternura de este trabajo grabado en Los Angeles se muestra en “Afraid No More”, una balada de alto voltaje en la que se apuesta por vivir sin miedo en un momento como el actual frente a la paranoia y la ansiedad, utilizando la imagen del final del verano. Como ocurre a lo largo de las 10 canciones de este nuevo proyecto, encontramos calidez y energía positiva. Otro de los invitados a la aventura sonora de The Next Waltz ha sido Charley Crockett, que ha participado en el tercer volumen de las grabaciones realizadas en The Bunker con esta versión de “I Can Help”, la canción por la que todo el mundo recuerda a Billy Swan, un músico crecido escuchando a Hank Williams y Lefty Frizzell, además de recibir la influencia de artistas de rock'n'roll como Buddy Holly y Jerry Lee Lewis. Billy Swan, que había recibido algún dinero al perder un ojo en un accidente, se marchó a Memphis, Tennessee, desde su Missouri natal y después a Nashville, donde en principio sólo encontró un puesto de portero en los estudios de Columbia. Allí vio grabar parte de Blonde On Blonde a Bob Dylan y conoció a quién sería uno de sus grandes amigos, Kris Kristofferson. El productor Chip Young le invitó a grabar en Monument y empezó versionando el clásico de Hank Williams "Wedding Bells". Pero Billy Swan había recibido un órgano eléctrico portátil como regalo de bodas de Kristofferson y Rita Coolidge y en aquel instrumento nacieron las notas de "I Can Help" añadiendo la letra en muy pocos minutos inspirado por el embarazo de su mujer. Fue el más rotundo éxito de su carrera, encabezando las listas de country y de pop en 1974 con un reconocimiento internacional inimaginable. Por entonces, llegó a visitar España en una inesperada visita para promocionar el álbum del mismo título. Pero regresó con Kristofferson como miembro básico de su banda de acompañamiento y pasó prácticamente al anonimato. Entre las innumerables personas afectadas por la actual pandemia del COVID-19 se encuentran los músicos. Como estamos observando según pasan los días, las semanas y los meses, muchos de ellos se han puesto a la tarea de hacer la transición hacia los días inciertos que se avecinan. Ellos siguen creando y compartiendo sus creaciones con quienes hasta hace muy poco éramos sus oyentes y espectadores más fieles. Aunque los tejanos Flatland Cavalry grabaron "War With My Mind" antes del confinamiento para el sello The Next Waltz de Bruce Robison, esta canción nació de sentimientos de autoaislamiento, que ahora nos son demasiado familiares. Fue compuesta por su líder, Cleto Cordero junto a su novia, la también cantante y compositora Kaitlin Butts, y es ahora el momento en que ve la luz. El álbum The Next Waltz Volume Th3ee se pondrá a la venta el próximo 27 de noviembre con 10 canciones grabadas en The Bunker, localizado en Lockhart, Texas, sin lo que Bruce Robison llama “travesuras digitales”. Además de Charley Crokett, músicos como Jack Ingram, Flatland Cavalry, The Panhandlers, Cody Canada o David Ramirez, entre otros, han participado en esas sesiones. Y también pasó por allí Robert Ellis que realizó esta versión de "I Must Be In A Good Place Now", una de las canciones más hermosas de Bobby Charles. El legendario músico de Louisiana ya había sido elegido por Bruce Robison y Kelly Willis para incluir en este álbum "Tennessee Blues". Ethan Johns, un productor curtido al lado de nombres tan eclécticos y sonoros como Ray LaMontagne, Paul McCartney o Kings of Leon, ha sido el encargado de trabajar al lado de Mary Chapin Carpenter, a la que se llevó hasta los estudios Real World de Peter Gabriel en Bath, al suroeste de Inglaterra, para grabar The Dirt And The Stars, el nuevo álbum de la cantante compositora de Nueva Jersey, que explora los desafíos del presente desde una visión íntima y personal. Mary Chapin compuso estas canciones en su granja de Virginia antes de la pandemia, y deja momentos tan intensos como “Secret Keepers”, un recordatorio de aquellas experiencias irremplazables que nunca desaparecen. Que las cicatrices desaparezcan no significa que lo haga el dolor que las produjeron. Ella es Robynn Shayne, cantante y compositora residente en Austin desde hace siete años, a la que es fácil encontrar sobre los escenarios del Saxon Pub o el Continental Club. En realidad el músico de la familia era su hermano Shane, pero tras su muerte con tan solo 20 años, ella decidió aprender a tocar la guitarra de forma autodidacta para contar sus vivencias bajo la influencia de Dolly Parton, Jessi Colter y los sonidos de los Strangers de Merle Haggard. Su último single, "Devil You Know", es la entrada más alta de la lista semanal de canciones más pinchadas en las emisoras de Texas. Forma parte de su cuarto álbum de estudio, Let's Get This Show on The Road, y habla sobre ciertas situaciones en las que no deberías estar y no sabes a ciencia cierta si es mejor marcharte o quedarte. En conjunto, este trabajo es especialmente emotivo y viene a continuar el éxito de su predecesor, Coffee Days and Whiskey Nights, que llegó a ser nominado a álbum del año en 2018 por la Texas Country Music Association. Suponemos que “Burn My Bridges” es el adelanto de un nuevo proyecto para Michaela Anne, que vuelve a contar con el apoyo de Kelly Winrich y Sam Outlaw en la producción de una canción que surgió en una mañana de resaca tras una noche intensa en la que decidió que su vida tenía que cambiar de rumbo y para ello debía quemar ciertos puentes. Esta joven neoyorquina de Brooklyn establecida en Nashville ha padecido las circunstancias de la pandemia que le han impedido apoyar como merecía su tercer álbum, Desert Rose, que se editaba a finales de septiembre del año pasado. Si miras los créditos de algunas canciones que hayan grabado Lee Ann Womack, Sunny Sweeney, Charley Crockett e incluso Rodney Crowell, encontrarás como compositora a Brennen Leigh, una mujer con una facilidad especial para contar historias creíbles. Tiene ya seis álbumes y el último de ellos, Prairie Love Letter, ha sido producido por Robbie Fulks para rendir homenaje a su lugar de procedencia, la frontera entre el oeste de Minnesota y el este de Dakota del Norte y que viene a resumir sus sentimientos en el tema de apertura “Don’t You Know I’m From Here” donde la tradición y las raíces se muestran en cada nota. Hace varios meses, antes de la llegada del verano, anticipamos en TOMA UNO que Sturgill Simpson estaba grabando un álbum de bluegrass, el estilo de música propio de su estado natal, Kentucky. También fue ayer el día elegido para editarlo bajo el nombre genérico de Cuttin’ Grass Vol. 1 - The Butcher Shoppe Sessions, grabado en ese estudio de Nashville con músicos del nivel de Stuart Duncan, Mike Bub, Sierra Hull, Scott Vestal, Tim O’Brien, Mark Howard y su batería de siempre, Miles Miller. El encargado de la producción ha sido David “Ferg” Ferguson. Son 20 canciones en las que recorre su propia carrera en solitario y sus aventuras como miembro de Sunday Valley. Entre las canciones de sus álbumes en solitario, ha retomado de esta forma “Long White Line”, uno de los cortes de Metamodern Sounds In Country Music, que produjo Dave Cobb en 2014 y que supuso el segundo de su carrera, grabado con 4.000 dólares en cinco días y medio. Cualquier movimiento de Sturgill Simpson no suele pasar inadvertido, pero en este caso la sorpresa es evidente con esta revisión tan particular de algunas de las canciones de sus discos anteriores. Así ha ocurrido con “All Around You”, que abre este Cuttin’ Grass Vol. 1 - The Butcher Shoppe Sessions, y que fue una de las piezas de A Sailor's Guide To Earth de hace cuatro años, un tercer disco que superó todas las previsiones, dando un notable giro a su andadura y logrando llegar a la cima de las listas y conseguir un Grammy al mejor disco de country. “All Around You” ya fue uno de los cortes más reconocibles y cercanos de aquel trabajo que ahora en esta versión parece perfecto para paisajes agrestes y saludables.

Marc's discography includes albums with k.d. lang, Kelly Willis, Chuck Prophet, David Mead, and Josh Rouse. Marc provides great insight and advice on having a successful career as a drummer in an ultra-competitive industry.

Kelly Winrich y Sam Outlaw siguen al lado de Michaela Anne tras el éxito de su álbum Desert Rose con la producción de un nuevo trabajo aún sin fecha de edición, pero con un par de canciones que ya hemos podido anticipar en el tiempo de TOMA UNO. Después del esperanzador “Good Times” llega un toque mucho más cercano a la tradición de la country music con “Burn My Bridges”. La canción surgió cuando la propia Michaela entendió que su vida no estaba encaminada de la mejor forma posible. Al parecer, una mañana de resaca decidió que no podía seguir viviendo así y que debía escribir sobre ello. El problema es que Rodney Crowell ya había compuesto muchos años antes "Ain’t Living Long Like This", por lo que decidió darle un toque más cercano al honky tonk con el piano Brian Whelan y el pedal steel de Philip Sterk. Así nació “Burn My Bridges”. Cuando Muscle Shoals y Nashville se encuentran ahí está Skylar Gregg, que acaba de publicar su tercer álbum, Roses, cuyo tema central es realmente conmovedor, hablando sobre los seres queridos perdidos con una tesitura vocal que recuerda a Dolly Parton. Con sede en Nashville, donde se mudó su familia para poder seguir las inclinaciones artísticas de sus padres, también músicos, Skylar tiene la férrea convicción de una cantante y compositora de talla. “Roses” no es un disco fácil en su contenido, ya que sus letras están llenas de situaciones difíciles donde se hallan el arrepentimiento, la muerte, las adicciones, la moralidad y los abusos. Todo ello envuelto en sonidos atemporales en los que sí es sencillo reconocerse. Bruce Robison y Kelly Willis persisten en ser los mejores anfitriones de un hogar musical que han llamado The Bunker y que tiene como sede muy cerca de Lockhart, en Texas, convertida en la sede de The Next Waltz, una aventura vital alternativa en la que no hay ordenadores ni efectos digitales. Todo se graba en una cinta de 2 pulgadas. Y, entonces, surge la magia. Uno de los ejemplos más cercanos es esta versión de la pareja a “Tennessee Blues”, una maravillosa canción de Bobby Charles, un cantante y compositor con raíces en la Cajun music, nativo de Abbeville, en Louisiana, y pionero del “rock pantanoso” gracias a temas como este, que en 1972 empezó a darle a conocer gracias al apoyo de Rick Danko de The Band, que produjo su álbum de debut y le invitó a participar en The Last Waltz, el concierto de despedida del grupo en el Winterland Ballroom de San Francisco cuatro años después. Bobby Charles murió hace 10 años. Tish Hinojosa, Stephanie Urbina Jones y Patricia Vonne tienen una larga carrera por separado y muchos puntos de unión. Crecieron en la tejana San Antonio y el Tex Mex ha sido una de sus raíces compartidas. Ahora han decidido poner en común esa riqueza sonora bajo el nombre de The Texicana Mamas y con ese título lanzan su disco de debut como trío, que ellas mismas han coproducido. Su perfección para armonizar se ha trasladado también a la selección de canciones, a la mezcla de inglés y español, y a la riqueza del sonido procedente de ambos lados de la frontera. Las tres mujeres se turnan para cantar las distintas composiciones y se reúnen para versionar “Lo Siento Mi Vida”, la canción que Linda Ronstadt compuso junto a su padre Gilbert y a Kenny Edwards, su compañero en los Stone Poneys, para el álbum Hasten Down The Wind de 1976. La continuación del disco de debut de Molly Tuttle reivindica como ninguno la sensibilidad de una mujer que en 2019 publicaba When You're Ready. Ahora, ...But I'll Rather Be with You, muestra a Molly Tuttle es una colección de versiones que pone de manifiesto su eclecticismo y su habilidad para filtrar los más distintos sabores sonoros. Son diez canciones plenas de brillantez en las que el productor, Tony Berg, ha tenido un papel preponderante, siendo capaz de construir un edificio que tiene sus cimientos en Nashville, donde Molly ha centrado su participación, y al que se han añadido músicos de estudio de Los Angeles como Matt Chamberlain y Patrick Warren. Recorriendo canciones desde National a Harry Styles, pasando por los Stones, Grateful Dead o Rancid hasta llegar a "How Can I Tell You" de Cat Stevens, que en septiembre del 71 formó parte del álbum Teaser and the Firecat, marcando una línea emocional cuya protagonista es la soledad. Ashley Campbell ha recogido muy buena parte de las esencias de su padre, el legendario Glen Campbell para recuperar su más que reconocible sonido en “Something Lovely”, la canción que compuesta junto a Brandon Kress da nombre a su segundo trabajo, que verá la luz a primeros de octubre. Sigue mezclando una diversidad de influencias que combinan la vieja escuela del country, el bluegrass que a veces desarrolla como excelente banjista que es, el folk más enraizado y nuevas propuestas contemporáneas más atrevidas. Tener a su lado como padrino a Carl Jackson, es un apoyo personal y artístico impagable. Carl Jackson siempre ha sido un músico cercano convertido en un referente del bluegrass y el country más enraizado. Colaborador de Glen Campbell, Jim & Jesse o Emmylou Harris, entre muchos otros, también estuvo cerca de Alecia Nugent, que no es, ni mucho menos, una desconocida para los oyentes de TOMA UNO. Nativa de Hickory Grove, en el estado de Louisiana, la llegaron a apodar “Hillbilly Goddess”, tal y como se titula su tercer álbum de hace 11 años. Era debido, sin duda, a la serenidad que se les supone a los veteranos en un terreno tan complicado como el del bluegrass, donde siempre se ha desenvuelto a la perfección. Ella, por entonces, tenía 37 años y la International Bluegrass Music Association la nombró Vocalista Femenina de la temporada. Tras abandonar Nashville y después de todos esos años, Alecia reaparece con The Old Side of Town, un proyecto con 10 nuevas canciones, que sigue explorando sus raíces y que cuenta con la producción del veterano Keith Stegall, que ha estado al lado de Alan Jackson desde sus comienzos. Una de las canciones más vulnerables de este nuevo registro es, sin duda, "They Don’t Make‘ em Like My Daddy Anymore", dedicada a su padre, que murió de cáncer el primer día de julio de 2013. Han pasado casi cuatro años desde que Mo Pitney debutó con Behind This Guitar, un disco muy bien considerado que dejo el mejor sabor de boca para un debutante tan joven. Ahora con 27 años, este nativo de Cherry Valley, en Illinois, regresará a primeros de octubre con el esperado Ain’t Lookin ’Back, un disco que corrobora los buenos augurios de su debut. Colaboraciones como la de Jamey Johnson, Ricky Skaggs y Marty Stuart dan impulso a un trabajo que nos remonta a comienzos de los 1990, una etapa especialmente brillante del resurgir de la industria de Music Row. Incluso su voz recuerda mucho a aquellos tiempos, evocando a Keith Whitley, Daryle Singletary o Randy Travis. Es evidente que Mo Pitney tiene la capacidad de saltar en el tiempo y poner de acuerdo a diferentes generaciones. “Looks Like Rain” es una de las muestras más sólidas de este álbum. La nueva generación de artistas de Americana nos va despejando un panorama esperanzador con la llegada de Mo Pitney o de Daniel Donato, un músico de 25 años convertido en todo un maestro de la Telecaster que debuta con el álbum A Young Man’s Country. Nativo de Nashville y criado en sus calles y sus locales, especialmente el legendario Robert's Western World de Lower Broadway, le hemos escuchado tocar en el Ryman junto a The Wild Feathers o grabando Hard to Please con The Black Lillies. El veterano guitarrista Robben Ford ha producido un disco de presentación formal que rezuma esa Cosmic American Music que elevó a los altares Gram Parsons, aireada con las mejores esencias psicodélicas de Grateful Dead y el toque outlaw de Waylon Jennings. Daniel Donato compone con coherencia, pero es evidente que cuando versiona algunas de sus canciones favoritas pone un tinte de emoción inevitable. Así ha ocurrido con “Angel From Montgomery” de John Prine, una canción del disco de debut del recordado músico de Illinois, cuando faltaba casi un cuarto de siglo para que Donato naciera. Con una carrera envidiable hasta sus últimos días, no era sencillo impresionar a una leyenda como John Prine. Pero el artista ahora desaparecido escuchó a Arlo McKinley y decidió que debía pasar a formar parte de su sello discográfico, Oh Boy Records.El músico de Ohio ha debutado con Die Midwestern, con una mezcla perfecta de country y folk para hablar de buenos momentos, decisiones equivocadas y rupturas dolorosas con la sensación de que estas escuchando las historias que siempre cantaron los clásicos, aunque las formas son propias de coetáneos como Jason Isbell, Tyler Childers, Ian Noe o John Moreland. Así ocurre con “She’s Always Been Around”, un tema de honky tonk de carretera con la jukebox encendida que hubiera interpretado George Jones con sumo gusto. Se fue a grabar a Memphis con músicos como Ken Coomer de Uncle Tupelo y Wilco), Rick Steff (Cat Power) y Reba Russell que ha acompañado a maestros como Johnny Cash y Roy Orbison. Si el tejano Lefty Frizzell fue el referente de Merle Haggard, es evidente que el artista de Bakersfield es el espejo en el que se mira Zephaniah OHora, un músico de Brooklyn que ha adquirido su estética y su sonido. Su segundo álbum, Listening to the Music, mantiene esa prestancia, pero es evidente la madurez alcanzada desde que hace tres años debutó con This Highway. La producción del desaparecido Neal Casal ha tenido una importancia vital para que se produzca una empatía de toques agridulces que pudiera servirnos para estos tiempos duros como para los buenos que están por venir. El tema central, “Listen To The Music”, reconoce el poder de la música para cambiar las cosas y servir de escape de todo el dolor que nos rodea. En cierta forma es una especie de regreso a las maneras de los 70, cuando todo se hizo más reflexivo, incluyendo al inevitable Merle Haggard. Ya que hablábamos de honky tonks, en este primer fin de semana de la nueva temporada de TOMA UNO en Radio 3 queremos despedirnos recordando que somos conscientes de tener amigos en los mejores sitios. Hace exactamente un mes se cumplieron 30 años de la publicación de un clásico como “Friends In Low Places” de Garth Brooks. Cuando en 2015 aquel tema celebraba su cuarto de siglo, el artista de Oklahoma decidió volver a grabarlo juntos a amigos como Florida Georgia Line, Jason Aldean, Keith Urban y George Strait. La canción se incluyó exclusivamente en una caja de 10 CDs titulada Garth Brooks: The Ultimate Collection. Volvemos el próximo fin de semana a la sintonía de Radio 3, donde nos encantará seguir cumpliendo años juntos. Escuchar audio

The Golden Globe and Grammy nominee whose self-titled debut release was named one of the 100 Best Albums of the Eighties by Rolling Stone joins us to chat about his wide-ranging career, from self-penned hits as an artist such as “Someday Someway,” to co-writing the Top 10 hit "Til I Hear it from You" with the Gin Blossoms, to writing the theme for the parody film Walk Hard. PART ONE  Scott and Paul pay tribute to “Day-O” writer and former Songcraft guest Irving Burgie, who recently passed away at the age of 95; reflect on other Songcraft guests who are no longer with us; talk about the importance of Patreon in preserving the important stories of songwriters; and announce two winners of the Marty Stuart book contest.  PART TWO - 6:46 mark The guys dig deep on why nobody knows the name of lead guitar players anymore PART THREE - 14:36 mark Paul and Scott get on the phone with Marshall Crenshaw, who discusses his eclectic range of musical interests that have led him to dig in the Capitol Records vaults for forgotten 1950s country recordings AND to tour as a guest guitarist with MC5; why he got sick of the Beatles for a while; how the simple act of flipping over a cassette tape altered the course of his career; how he wrote one his best known songs in 15 minutes; the only one of his albums he didn't want to make; how he managed not to meet one of the co-writers of his biggest hits until after the song was on the radio; the reason he asked his record label to drop him; whose version of "You're My Favorite Waste of Time" is his favorite; what it's like listening to Phil Spector records on acid; and why he's reissuing his three underrated Razor & Tie albums, even though he's vowed to never release another new album again.  ABOUT MARSHALL CRENSHAW Detroit native Marshall Crenshaw’s debut self-titled album spawned the Top 40 pop hit “Someday Someway” and was named one of the Best Albums of the Eighties by Rolling Stone magazine. Establishing him as a critical darling, Crenshaw went on to release a series of eclectic studio albums that spawned classic songs such as “Whenever You’re on My Mind,” “Better Back Off,” and “You’re My Favorite Waste of Time.” The latter went on to be covered by Bette Middler, Ronnie Spector, the duo of Matthew Sweet & Susanna Hoffs, and Owen Paul, who had a Top 5 hit with it in the UK. Crenshaw carved out a special relationship with Hollywood, appearing with his band in the Francis Ford Coppola film Peggy Sue Got Married, portraying Buddy Holly in the Richie Valens biopic La Bamba, and writing a book called Hollywood Rock: A Guide to Rock ‘n’ Roll in the Movies. Additionally, he penned the title track for the John C. Reilly comedy film Walk Hard, which earned Crenshaw Golden Globe and Grammy nominations. A highly respected writer, Marshall’s songs have been covered by Kelly Willis, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, Freedy Johnston, Robert Gordon, Marti Jones, and the Gin Blossoms, with whom he co-wrote the Top 10 single “Til I Hear It From You.” Ronnie Spector recorded an entire five-song EP of material from the Marshall Crenshaw catalog, and his work has earned him induction into the Michigan Rock and Roll Legends Hall of Fame.  

Through this podcast, Carly and I have got to interview some of the biggest names in Texas Country, Americana and Red Dirt Music.  Every now and then though, we get to interview people who I truly consider heroes of mine.  This episode, featuring one of the best writers to ever come out of Texas, Bruce Robison, definitely checks all the boxes for me.  For songwriter geeks like me, you’re undoubtedly already aware of Bruce’s work.  However, if you’re not one of those people who always tries to figure out who wrote what song, Bruce’s name may not immediately ring a bell.  Nevertheless, you know some of his songs; I guarantee it.  Here’s just a few Bruce Robison songs made famous by other artists: “Angry All the Time” – Tim McGraw - #1 – 2001 “Travelin’ Soldier” – Dixie Chicks - #1 – 2002 “Wrapped” – George Strait - #2 – 2007 It’s hard to know where to start and where to stop with a life and career like Bruce Robison’s.  Bruce is married to singer-songwriter, Kelly Willis and is the brother of country artist Charlie Robison.  In this interview we touch a little on both of those members of Bruce’s immediate family. I really enjoy the portion of the interview when we get to talk about Bruce’s project called The Next Waltz along with his recent production of the West-Texas super group, the Panhandlers.  Please check them out! I’ll let the episode and Bruce’s commentary speak for itself but this episode is a gem. To check out Bruce’s website and to find our where he’ll be playing next click HERE.

Sign this petition now! https://secure.everyaction.com/-4O_3SsDjk-a7juCZ_6TCg2 The petition supports these demands: Customs and Border Protection (CBP) must allow LGBTQ asylum-seekers to be in the U.S. as they continue their asylum proceedings. Every single minute they are in Mexico, their lives are at risk due to violent threats and abuse they have endured because of their sexual orientation and gender identity. End the so-called “Migrant Protection Protocols” (or “Remain in Mexico” Program) that forces asylum-seekers, including LGBTQ and other vulnerable migrants, to survive in the streets of Mexican border towns with little to no resources to protect themselves.

We snuck a special guest into the studio to help us out with FMK this week... Ed Scruggs of Texas Gun Sense is back to explain "red flag laws" and "mandatory buy-backs." As Beto would say, "Hell yes!" to those. And a big "f*ck no" to teaching nothin' but abstinence in Texas schools. The incredible folks at the Texas Freedom Network are looking out for all the peens and vags (and everything in between), and they tell us how to help.

A week or so before recording this episode I asked Justin if he would lead a poetry workshop during the conversation. In a few words, what came out was raw and real. Justin is one of the better songwriters I know, not only because of his gift with language, but also because he approaches the craft with reverence and respect. He seeks to deepen his practice with each pass and he has a gift of a sharp wit that I find myself enjoying through each of our exchanges. “What better person to speak to the craft of creativity?” was my thought, and I was right. This episode explores the craft of poetry, songwriting and performing. The conversation invites welcomed interruptions in the form of Justin's songs. In fact, in preparation for this episode, Justin wrote the first part of a song that he work shopped throughout the conversation – the episode finishes with the complete song that Justin shared with me a few weeks after the recording. Justin shares personal stories with a degree of vulnerability that, no doubt, infuses his whole process. Bio: Texas born, and Austin-based, Justin Stewart tends to write about the places he inhabits. He grew up splitting his time between Houston and Galveston Island. Family vacations were not to Colorado like many Texans, but to the more "modest" Austin, which his mother liked best because “the air and water were cleaner.” From an early age, Justin knew he would never leave Texas and likely land in Austin. Stewart's first solo record, Flagship (2013) was produced by Kevin Russell (Shinyribs/Gourds). A bit of intimidating praise came Stewart's way when Russell called the record "remarkable or extraordinary," Stewart's response: "That kinda scared me because I did not have my process down to maintain such vulnerability." Stewart's sophomore album, City Fox (2015) was produced by George Reiff (Joe Walsh, Jacob Dylan, Chris Robinson), and is the gem that came from a 2014 west Texas residency. Stewart lived and wrote in the dusty border town of Presidio. Stewart's third record, Renaissance was produced by Stephen Belans (Radney Foster, Billy Cassis). Players include Bukka Allen on keys (Ryan Bingham, Jack Ingram), Chris Searles on drums (Alejandro Escovedo, Shawn Colvin), Geoff Queen on guitars and pedal steel (Kelly Willis, Randy Rodgers), and John Mike on bass (Hayes Carll, Ray Wylie Hubbard). The February 2017 session was held at Ronjo Studio. Jim Vollentine was on engineering. The record was released in the spring of 2018.

Collateral Damage. Unmoored Democrats encouraging political violence against Republicans. We review the disturbing trends. How far will they go? Senator Mitch McConnell harassed in a Kentucky restaurant. Discussion of the "bizarre" political instincts cropping up on the Left these days, possibly facilitated by years of MSM insulation from reality. Democrats careening from backfire to backfire, pressing buttons that seem tailor-made to boost GOP turnout. Failed Leadership? Unresolved Hate? Grassroots activist Jan Cook outlines the burgeoning "Walk Away" movement in Colorado. Meanwhile, additional "Caravan" conversation on the hard life in Honduras. Can the U.S. Military peacefully protect our Southern Border? The risks involved. We sketch impressive MAGA Economic tailwinds for GOP candidates, wages up bigly in U.S. trucking and steel and all across the board. The Wall Street Journal reports America is once again the world's "most competitive economy." Also, our Deep State Updates as Glenn Simpson pleads the Fifth, Nellie Ohr declares "marital privilege" and Rod Rosenstein chisels a special deal. Skating? Out of time? Luckily, Mueller's "jig is up." Plus, tongue-in-cheek anecdotes about RTD banning fake "service animals" on public transportation. No snakes, tarantulas or malevolent ferrets.

John Leventhal thinks his initial, preanalytical ideas are the good ones. John Leventhal realized that there “really is no daddy, there isn’t anybody who really has it all together, knows all the answers. You’re kind of in the wilderness. You have to take a chance to fail.” John Leventhal isn’t sure how to measure success. John Leventhal is a self invented guy. Despite his five Grammys, his critically and commercially successful work as musician, producer, songwriter, and recording engineer who has produced albums for William Bell, Michelle Branch, Rosanne Cash, Marc Cohn, Shawn Colvin, Rodney Crowell, Joan Osborne, Loudon Wainwright III, and many others, he’s still wondering if he’s made it. As a musician he has worked with these artists as well as Jackson Browne, Willie Nelson, Bruce Hornsby, Elvis Costello, Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Charlie Haden, David Crosby, Levon Helm, Edie Brickell, Paul Simon, Patty Larkin, Susan Tedeschi, the Tedeschi Trucks Band, Steve Forbert, Kelly Willis, Donald Fagen, and Johnny Cash. As a songwriter he has had over 150 songs recorded by various artists, including Rosanne Cash, Shawn Colvin, Marc Cohn, Michelle Branch, The Tedeschi Trucks Band, Vince Gill, George Strait, Shelby Lynne, Patty Loveless, Joe Cocker and William Bell. We met over the summer met in his Manhattan studio, which occupies one floor of the home he shares with his wife, singer-songwriter Rosanne Cash. We talked about his process in the studio, how he developed his own personal approach to making music, and why even the simplest questions can have complicated answers. Thanks for listening.

PART ONE Scott and Paul talk about Randy Poe, Texas, and their favorite songwriters from the Lone Star State. PART TWO - 20:52 mark Robert Earl Keen comes by Songcraft World Headquarters to chat about the Marty Robbins song that set him on his path as a kid; why he wants his songs to be provocative; the book Lyle Lovett gave him that jump started his career; what Steve Earle said that convinced Robert to move to Nashville; how having only $20 in his pocket led to writing his most classic song; which of his albums made him feel like he’d been accepted into the mainstream; and why he kept delaying making a bluegrass album. ABOUT ROBERT EARL KEEN Regarded as one of the purest singer-songwriters in the Texas tradition, Robert Earl Keen is a true pioneer, and one of the most consistent practitioners of the Americana genre. While studying English at Texas A&M University, Keen linked up with fellow aspiring songwriter Lyle Lovett. The pair analyzed songs and worked on their craft together, writing tunes such as “Front Porch Song” which each included on his respective debut album. After the release of the West Textures album in 1989, Keen hit the road with songwriting giants Guy Clark and Townes Van Zandt. It was another Texan, Joe Ely, who recorded two of Robert’s songs on his highly lauded 1993 release Love and Danger that brought Keen to the attention of a wider audience. With a canon of classic songs that includes “The Road Goes on Forever,” “Corpus Christi Bay,” “Gringo Honeymoon,” and “Merry Christmas From the Family,” Keen built a diverse following that ranges from rowdy college kids to dyed-in-the-wool folkies. Live performance has been an important foundation of Keen’s artistry, as illustrated on the modern day classic live album No. 2 Live Dinner that was issued in 1996.  With a dozen studio albums and seven live albums under his belt, Keen has continued to explore new musical ground with a string of charting albums that includes 2015’s Happy Prisoner: The Bluegrass Sessions. Reaching the Top 10 on the country chart and #1 on the bluegrass rankings, Happy Prisoner demonstrates that Keen’s track record as an artist is just as strong as the respect his songs have earned from other performers. Those who’ve covered his material include Nanci Griffith, Eddy Raven, Kelly Willis, The Highwaymen, Jack Ingram, Montgomery Gentry, Shawn Colvin, Gillian Welch, and George Strait. In 2012, Robert Earl Keen was inducted into the Texas Heritage Songwriters Hall of Fame.

Making America Home Again. A look at the expanding Trump Economy and increasing optimism towards pursuing the American Dream. President Trump goes on offense against Sen. Chuck Schumer's "Diversity Visa Lottery" in the aftermath of ISIS truck terror in New York City. A hypocritical Schumer, playing last-ditch defense, decries Trump's "politicizing" of immigration issues. Meanwhile, we make note of the 100th Anniversary of the Russian Revolution and explore "Communism's Bloody Century." We ponder why so many American millenials seem favorably disposed towards Joseph Stalin and Vladimir Lenin. Are they unaware that communism has claimed at least 65 million lives since 1917? What systemic failures in America's education system have allowed for such historical illiteracy? Could some Friedrich Hayek help? Meanwhile, we survey the upcoming election for Governor in Virginia, where the stakes are high for nervous Democrats. If they lose, could they be facing their own civil war? Will Democrats be able to recover from their infamous 'racist black pickup' backfire? With Listener Calls & Music via the Smithereens, Kelly Willis and Bruce Robison. Sacred Song from Reba McEntire.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Intelligence Community Out of Control. When you live in a Police State, the Police are in charge. Leaks, Lavrentiy Beria and Josef Stalin. Is this where we're headed in modern-day America? The Amazon Washington Post whiffs on a vicious Deep State smear against AG Jeff Sessions. Fusion GPS founder Glenn Simpson gets a subpoena, but says he'll plead the Fifth. Why so uncooperative, this shadowy compiler of the Dodgy Dossier? Patrick Buchanan describes the Real Crimes of Russiagate. Tucker Carlson says it's "scary" to be ruled by an unelected intelligence bureaucracy. Meanwhile, the Establishment Won't Give Trump a Chance. Playing with fire, we submit, showing such unveiled contempt for the American people. We consider Roger Simon's ominous speculations on how "a significant portion of the American public" might react to a Deep State takedown of President Trump -- ranging "from massive civil disobedience to outright civil war." Plus our vignettes on Lindsey Graham, Maxine Waters, Ben Rhodes and Megyn Kelly. With Listener Calls & Music via Kelly Willis, the Sons of The Pioneers and Johnny Cash. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Who Rules America? The Beltway Swamp now in full rebellion against the American people. The Radicalized Ruling Class clings to power in the Era of Trump. Have our Civil Servants become Civil Tyrants? The Deep State scalps National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, as the Media cheers their Orwellian tactics. Did the Big Brother treatment of Flynn offer reasons --or excuses -- for his dismissal? Additional scalps forthcoming? Meanwhile, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson cleans out the Seventh Floor of the State Department. With Listener Calls & Music via Saint Etienne, the Bellamy Brothers, Kelly Willis and Giacomo Puccini's Nessun Dorma.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The "unnerved" Establishment wants President Trump to "slow down." The exhausted authoritarian David Brooks calls on "civil servants" to disobey the President. Who is Orwellian? And what does Vicente Fox say? Plus, the question of Voter Fraud and the hidden costs of Sanctuary Cities. Notes on the brilliance of Trump's meeting with union leaders, as the GOP transforms into the party of working men and women. Meanwhile, Democrats take remedial courses in how to talk to "real people."

An astoundingly hostile CNN takes heat from Trump supporters, as its ratings plunge. Deservedly so? Is Trump's energy misdirected when he criticizes the media -- or might he be promoting "talking head" accountability to the American people? We review Trump's current media strategies and take an increasingly unforgiving look at lingering Never-Trumpers. Callers suggest Republicans should never be voting for Anti-Trump Republicans down ticket -- i.e. House & Senate -- thereby mirroring the venomous logic of "Never Trump." Could it happen in 2016? Meanwhile, we listen to disgraced pundit Bill Kristol call Trump a "bully" even as Kristol personally bullies Kayleigh McEnany, a young Trump supporter, right there on CNN. Has Kristol gone over the edge? Also, should Christians fight to repeal "Johnson Amendment" restrictions on free speech? With Listener Calls and Music via Natalie Imbruglia, Iris DeMent, Kelly Willis and the Beatles. Plus, an extended appreciation of Puccini's Nessun Dorma, as rendered by Luciano Pavarotti, as interpreted by "Father Hugh." Tramontate stelle, Vincero!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Addressing the leadership vacuum after the massacre in Dallas. As five police officers lose their lives to an executioner who "wanted to kill white people, especially cops" -- we question President Obama's leadership abilities in the grim aftermath. Why does Obama tend to fall short in such critical moments? And why is Hillary Clinton seemingly blaming "white people" for the atrocity? Meanwhile, we review Donald Trump's measured response -- a call to "make America safe again" -- which has earned bipartisan plaudits. Also, we discuss FBI Director James Comey's stern rebuke of Hillary Clinton's "extremely careless" handling of classified documents as we examine what columnist Maureen Dowd calls "The Clinton Contamination." Who will win the battle for "The Narrative" in the 2016 election cycle?
