Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends I'm your host Ray Shasho. Spirit of Unicorn Music are delighted to announce a brand new album from District 97, Stay For The Ending. Featuring 10 brand new tracks, the album is the culmination of everything this Chicago-based prog rock ensemble has worked towards during their last 15 years. Formed in Autumn 2006, the band draws influences from a diverse array of musical styles, from heavy metal to avant-garde jazz. This broad appreciation of musical genres has continued to inform the band's latest work and sees them further develop their sound and songwriting to ambitious new levels: upping their game in the areas of composition, performance, arrangement, production and sonics. A friend of the band, BILL BRUFORD (KING CRIMSON, YES, GONG, BRUFORD) agrees. In response to hearing the new album, he said, “Quality, expertise and passion – ‘Stay For The Ending' is a massive piece, of which District '97 should feel justly proud.” The Autumn sees the band undertake a number of live shows in the US and Europe, including playing The Bedford in Balham, South London on Sunday 10th September.  SCHANG continues “I can't wait for the music world at large to hear it both on record and on stage.” The album can be pre-ordered from Cherry Red Records here: https://www.cherryred.co.uk/product/district-97-stay-for-the-ending-cd/ PLEASE WELCOME DRUMMER/COMPOSER AND FOUNDER OF DISTRICT97 JONATHAN SCHANG AND LEAD SINGER LESLIE HUNT TO INTERVIEWING THE LEGENDS… PREORDER  THE NEW ALBUM  BY  DISTRICT 97 entitled STAY FOR THE ENDING The album can be pre-ordered  from Cherry Red Records  at https://www.cherryred.co.uk/product/district-97-stay-for-the-ending-cd/ “‘Stay for the Ending' by District 97 is a brilliant album by a profound American Progressive Rock Group. Leslie Hunt's stunning vocals are haunting and enchanting, which magnify the essence of the group. The band's intricate musical styles are mind-blowing, performing frequent changes in tempo reminiscent to some of the methods used by Brit legends Gentle Giant.” Their musical styles are forthright and awe-inspiring! …By music journalist Ray Shasho   FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT DISTRICT 97 VISIT www.district97.net official website https://www.facebook.com/District97/ Facebook https://twitter.com/District97 twitter https://www.youtube.com/user/D97Music YouTube https://www.instagram.com/district.97/?hl=en Instagram https://open.spotify.com/artist/3NAglwfZgBGcdvm7QUuhSC Spotify http://district97.bandcamp.com/ (Exclusive Music Available for Download) Bandcamp https://www.lesliehuntmusic.com/ Leslie Hunt music   DISTRICT 97 TOUR 2023 08/18/2023– Martyrs', Chicago, Illinois, USA 09/2/2023– 2 Days + 1 Festival, Veruno, Italy 09/07/2023 – Das Rind, Russelsheim, Germany 09/08/-09/09/2023– Steve Rothery Band Weekend, Poppodium Boerderij, Zoetemeer, Netherlands 09/10/2023 A SUNDAY IN SEPTEMBER 2023 FESTIVAL London, UK 09/09/2023 Steve Rothery Band Weekend @ De Boerderij Zoetermeer, NL 09/08/2023 Steve Rothery Band Weekend @ De Boerderij Zoetermeer, NL 09/07/2023 Das Rind Russelsheim, DE 09/02/2023 2 Days Prog + 1 Festival Veruno, IT 08/18/2023 Martyrs' Chicago, IL 03/30/2023 Martyrs' w/Consider the Source Chicago, IL 03/10/2023 Arcada Theater w/The Winery Dogs St. Charles, IL 03/09/2023 Pabst Theater w/The Winery Dogs Milwaukee, WI 10/13/2022 Mahall's Lakewood, OH   DISTRICT97 DISCOGRAPHY 2010: Hybrid Child 2010: Live at CalProg (CD-R, Download) 2012: Trouble with Machines 2012: Live at WFPK FM (CD-R, Download) 2012: Live at Rites of Spring (Download) 2014: One More Red Night (Live with John Wetton) 2015: Inside Vaults 2019: Septennial Return to ROSfest 2019: screens 2020: Two of a Kind: A Tribute to Bill Bruford & Allan Holdsworth 2021: Screenplay (Live) 2022: Many New Things 2023: Stay for the Ending   Support us on PayPal!

Leslie Hunt, of District 97 fame, guests on the show in part 1 of the episode... So... What a privilege it was for me, that many who are music fans don't ever get to be given the same chance to them by their musical idols... But I wouldn't have been able to pull it off minus the aid to me of my hosting team and their invaluable experience in the world of podcasting and radio broadcasting...even though I insisted on doing most of the hard work involved outside the actual recording of the interview...

PTSD and severe wounds don't really care about political views, party affiliations, or opinions on sensitive topics. They exist, they are real, and they affect thousands of real American people. On the bright side, providing massive help to them is pretty simple; anyone can do it, and it doesn't require communing with any particular political view. In today's episode, I'm joined by the inspiring Leslie Hunt and her infectious energy. She is the Director of Donor Partnerships at Hope For The Warriors®, a private company dedicated to serving those who served and their families, helping military veterans to transition into civilians, get employed, and deal with mental and physical health issues. We talk about the things society and most institutions fail to provide for military veterans and their families, the importance of peer-to-peer mentorship, and the impressive work of Hope For The Warriors®. We also discuss how auto repair shops can benefit from employing veterans and the multiple (and effortless) options we have to extend a hand and offer valuable help. In This Episode, You Will Learn:A bit about Leslie and Hope For The Warriors® (1:59)The things veterans and their families are missing and struggle to get (6:06)How helpful peer-to-peer mentorship can be (10:07)What makes Hope For The Warriors® one of the best charities out there (17:05)How veterans can solve the #1 problem of most auto repair shops owners (21:58)The military-civilian translator and other Hope For The Warriors® resources (25:05)Resources:Hope For The Warriors® websiteConnect with Leslie:LinkedInLet's connect:LinkedInFacebookEmail: info@maximumoctane.com Hosted on Acast.

Why would Arsenio Hall, Herbie Hancock, Keb' Mo',  Kenny G and countless celebrities at the pinnacle of their careers choose to share the limelight with one musician?  Vail Johnson is a talent unbounded by musical genres; an artist who succeeded as a top LA Studio Musician, Internationally Acclaimed Bass Player, Jazz Musician, Band Leader and Solo Performer. Vail's music appears in film, TV, on radio and in 6 CD's that exhibit the depth of his experience. Compositions range from improvisational jazz created with free-form musicians to projects drawing solely upon Vail's schizophrenic talents as writer, singer, virtuoso and producer. Transcendent in his music is an unequaled voice expressed with 4 strings. You hear melodic tones of Spanish guitar, bluesy finger-picking and monster slapping. You feel samba, funk, blues and rock. Vail's live performance on bass became something extraordinary, by playing constantly as a member of as many as 10 bands at any given time. From a family history exuberant with Metropolitan Opera singers, Symphony players, Broadway musical producers, grandma ‘Iny' playing the mighty Wurlitzer in silent film movie theaters and wildly colorful performers (Magicians, Traveling Minstrels, and Carnival Folk), Vail was destined to emerge as a multi-talented artist and multi-layered performer with a singular voice.   Like his kaleidoscopic roots, Vail's multi-faceted talents mirror a childhood immersed in the expression of Classical, Choral, Gospel, Bluegrass, Dixieland and Top 40 music by mentors with creative genius. He merged talents of Manhattan School of Music Scholar and noted Percussionist; Banjo-picking Night Club Owner; Vocal Master (Doctorate Choral Arrangement), Award-Winning Conductor and more as the youngest of 7 brothers.  Each one mastered 4-part harmonies in choir and live performance playing in a popular Seattle Dixieland band and touring internationally through Asia entertaining troops on Air Force Bases with Top 40 music. Vail added Jazz to this medley with jazz studies at UW.  Moving to LA, Vail formed his own jazz bands, played with renowned Latin and Fusion Jazz artists and toured internationally playing every major Jazz Festival around the world. Throw this mix into a blender and what do you get? Vail electrifies audiences with virtuosity, passion and humor in 40 Years Around the World, a continuously evolving production of music and stories from world-wide performances and recording studios as a solo artist and with luminaries such as Kenny G, Herbie Hancock, Stevie Nicks, Keb' Mo', George Benson, Michael Bolton, James Ingram, Gil Scott Heron, Paula Abdul, MC Hammer, Steve Perry, Arsenio Hall, Patti Austen, Peabo Bryson, Christopher Cross, T. Graham Brown and David Cassidy as well as lesser known but highly respected artists Eric Marienthal and Frank Gambale (both members of the Chick Corea Electrik Band), Leslie Hunt, Warren Hill, Young MC, Edgar Winter, Freddie Ravel, Carmine Appice, etc., etc., etc.   Visit www.vailjohnson.com The Business Side of Music ™ © 2022 Lotta Dogs Productions LLC Showrunner and Executive Producer Emeritus: Tom Sabella Producer and Host (the guy who has a face for podcasting): Bob Bender Management Representation: Chuck Thompson for Thompson Entertainment Group, LLC Co-Producer - Audio/Video Editor (the man behind the curtain): Mark Sabella Director of Video and Continuity (the brains of the entire operation): Deborah Halle Marketing and Social Media (all knowing): Sarah Fleshner for 362 Entertainment All Around Problem Solver (and Mental Health Therapist for us): Connie Ribas Recorded inside what could be an old beat up Airstream Trailer located somewhere on what's left of Music Row in Nashville TN (Man I sure do miss Noshville, and the Longhorn Steakhouse) Mixed and Mastered at Music Dog Studios in Nashville, TN Editing and Post at Midnight Express Studio located in Olian, NY Production Sound Design: Keith Stark Voice Over and Promo: Lisa Fuson Special Thanks to the creator and founder of the podcast, Tom Sabella, along with Traci Snow for producing and hosting over 100 episodes of the original "Business Side of Music" podcast and trusting us to carry on their legacy.

Ahoy listeners! This week strap in for a 4-hour tour to the bottom of the sea of completely self-indulgent noodling… nah, just kidding! We have raided the Prog Rock crypt, yet we've prepared a bite-size slab of the genre that pushes the boundaries of rock music with a diverse mix of, well… everything! Kevin's prog-rock cruise that was postponed in 2020 is finally setting sail this week, so we thought we'd feature several of the artists that will be featured on the ship.What's this InObscuria thing? We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. Prog rock in the 60s and 70s initially had mostly classical music and jazz influences, but over the last 40-years, it has come to include other fusions of music styles including metal, punk, funk, folk, and electronic. From Zappa and Sgt. Pepper to today's Djent and Post-Prog movements… This is Prog Rock! Get yer nerd on!Songs this week include:Riverside – “Rainbow Box” from Rapid Eye Movement (2007)Transatlantic – “Rainbow Sky” from The Absolute Universe: Forevermore (2021)Wishbone Ash – “The King Will Come” from Argus (1972) District 97 – “Stay For The Ending” from Many New Things (2022)Pain Of Salvation – “Angel Of Broken Things” from In The Passing Light Of Day (2017)Marillion – “Murder Machines” from An Hour Before It's Dark (2022)Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://twitter.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/InObscuria?asc=uCheck out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/

Jim Peterik is a survivor. Those words were prophetically spoken first on the back of his first solo album “Don't Fight The Feeling” back in the seventies. In the decades since, Jim has lived up to that term. Jim's home base has always been The Ides Of March, where Jim wrote and sang the evergreen hit “Vehicle”. The Ides began their journey in 1964, and continue today as a vital, touring act; featuring all the original members.  In the seventies, Jim combined his love for melody and driving rock with the band Survivor. Their phenomenal rise to the top was borne on the back of the amazing songs Jim co-wrote. “The Eye Of The Tiger” from the film “Rocky III” has become an indelible classic, and garnered Jim Grammy™ and People's Choice awards; as well as an Oscar™ nomination. In September of 2014, Jim's Autobiography “Through The Eye Of The Tiger” was released. The book traces Jim's path from humble beginnings in Suburban Chicago to his stellar career as a platinum hit Songwriter, successful Musician and in-demand Producer. Jim Peterik has always loved a musical challenge and pursuing new ideas … He latest endeavor is with the release of JIM PETERIK & WORLD STAGE Tigress - Women Who Rock The World - In Jim's words, "I discovered that I needed to write songs that reflected the female perspective more than the male. It was gratifying working with talented women from all over the world and heroes of mine. Tigress - Women Who Rock The World will officially be released on November 5th by Frontiers Music s. r. l. Please welcome American musician, singer and songwriter. Best known as the founder of the band Survivor, as vocalist and songwriter of "Vehicle" by the Ides of March, and as co-writer of the anthem "Eye of the Tiger", the theme from the 1982 film Rocky III JIM PETERIK to Interviewing the Legends … Purchase JIM PETERIK & WORLD STAGE Tigress - Women Who Rock The World - Frontiers Music s.r.l. Available at amazon.com Jim Peterik has always loved a musical challenge and pursuing new ideas, so the fresh idea for this album really inspired him. He made a Wishlist of artists he wanted to work with and crafted musical ideas that could work for their styles. In Jim's words, "I discovered that I needed to write songs that reflected the female perspective more than the male. It was gratifying when talented women from all over the world, heroes of mine such as Janet Gardner (Vixen), Cathy Richardson (Jefferson Starship), Jenniffer Batten, Mindi Abair, Kate French, Kimi Hayes, Chez Kane, Rosa Laricchiuta (Black Rose Maze, Trans-Siberian Orchestra), and so many others gave me the big thumbs up! Up-and-comers like Lindsay Kent, Leslie Hunt, Chloe Lowery, Marine Lacoste, and so many others all added their unique personalities to make this a landmark album in my career." ALSO Through the Eye of the Tiger: The Rock 'n' Roll Life of Survivor's Founding Member by Jim Peterik  (Author), Lisa Torem  (Author), Kevin Cronin (Foreword) It was these words that would set Jim Peterik on the road to rock 'n' roll immortality. After he and his Survivor bandmates recorded "Eye of the Tiger" for the Rocky III soundtrack, the song would go on to earn a Grammy, an Oscar nomination, reach triple platinum status—and become one of the most recognizable tunes in music history.

Chicago-area singer/songwriter Leslie Hunt isn't a household name, but she should be. The lead singer of progressive rockers District 97 and a top 10 finisher on the women's side in Season 6 of American Idol, Hunt is a talented musician and writer with a fantastic voice. She's released two seven-song EPs this year, Ascend and Descend. They're companion releases but each have their own sound. Both are filled with short, catchy songs that reward repeat listens. Leslie was kind enough to spend some time with me, telling me about her background, how she hooked up with District 97, and we took a deep dive into Ascend and Descend.
