This Podcast is a little "inside baseball" and focuses on both General Conference of the United Methodist Church in Charlotte this Spring as well as Jurisdictional Conference in Washington State in August.   My guest for this podcast is District Superintendent, Mark Calhoun.  Mark is a thoughtful observer of all things United Methodist.   If you like it, forward it to someone, or more than one!   This is Mark Calhoun's second visit and his first Mindful Leader Podcast is HERE. Mark's' first conversation focused on context and how much that matters in our local church leadership.   Discussion with Lonnie Brooks, Alaska Conference Lay Delegate to General Conference, about Regionalization is HERE.   Conversation with Gayla Jo Slauson, Lay Delegate to General Conference from Mountain Sky Conference, is HERE.   I mention, positively I hope, Jeremy Smith and his blog Hacking Christianity.  The blog I specifically addressed is HERE.    HERE is a Chart I created of Episcopal Elections in the West since 1968.  I think it is quite telling.   Send me a note:  dennis@mantuan.org if you want to discuss.    

This is again, about the United Methodist General Conference in Charlotte this late April/early May.   In our last conversation, we talked about potential changes to the election, tenure, and deployment of bishops.  A link to that Podcast is HERE.   This episode we discuss a different concept that will get a lot of discussion at General Conference:  Regionalization.  My guest is Lonnie Brooks, a lay member of the Alaska Conference.  Lonnie is a keen observer of Methodist polity.  I think you will find him informative and optimistic.   Lonnie is a 1962 Graduate of Georgia Tech and worked as an Electrical Engineer.  He is retired and is a long time member of St. John's UMC in Anchorage, Alaska.   "In essentials unity, in non-essentials liberty, and in all things charity."

Making a Scene Presents an Interview with John PrimerJohn Primer has undisputedly helped build the sound and style of Chicago blues as we know it today. The echos of tradition bellowing from the birthplaces he played such as: Maxwell Street, Theresa's, Checkerboard and Rosa's Lounges, pulse from every chord in his fingers today. John Primer is a Chicago Blues Living Legend.John's father died tragically in Mississippi when he was young. When his mother found work in Chicago, John soon followed, bringing the sounds and spirit of Mississippi with him in 1963. He then fell for the music of both the city's west and south sides. Fronting his first band, The Maintainers, he was asked to join and eventually lead the house band at the world famous Theresa’s Lounge in 1974. Over the next seven years, John would play with such blues originators as: Sammy Lawhorn, Junior Wells, Buddy Guy, Smokey Smothers, Lonnie Brooks and many others shaping the foundations of the Chicago blues to come.

Biscuit Miller, who is only one a handful of bass players who leads a band, just released his third studio effort, the critically acclaimed Wishbone. Miller is a Blues Music Award Winner who recorded with the late Sonny Rodgers and Mojo Buford before touring with Lonnie Brooks for 10 years. Later he toured with Anthony Gomes and co-wrote the chart burner, “Testify.” Born and raised in Chicago, Miller is known for his high energy shows and his million dollar blues with a smile.

The Brooks family is known for the business of blues. Their patriarch is the legendary Lonnie Brooks, formerly known as Guitar Jr whose two sons Ronnie Baker Brooks and Wayne Baker Brooks are receiving the torch; not just for the family legacy but the blues as a whole. Ronnie Baker Brooks has three successful contemporary blues albums under his belt produced by the legendary Minnesota based Jellybean Johnson, a veteran collaborator for Prince and Janet Jackson. His recent project pairs him with Mud Morganfield, Billy Branch and Erica Brown as a member of the Big Head Blues Club created by Todd Park Mohr who leads the popular Denver based rock band, Big Head Todd and the Monsters. Their album is called Way Down Inside and pays tribute to the late Willie Dixon.

Episode 10 - April 10, 2016  If you don't know Graham Nelson's harmonica playing, you should.

We talk about his music-filled upbringing, his love of Middle-eastern and other ethnic musics, and his penchant for not only customizing harmonicas but making his own flutes.

The blues propulsion is strong in the 260th Roadhouse. The Radio Kings, Paul Reddick, Carlos Del Junco, Lonnie Brooks, and Legendary Rhythm & BLues Revue push us through the final hour of year five. Consistent with the mood and we've always tried to develop in the show, Roadhouse 260 is another hour of the finest blues you've never heard.

It's a tweener week in The Roadhouse - the week between Christmas and New Years. With a freewheeling feeling, the 253rd Roadhouse fills an hour with a big variety of blues. Lonnie Brooks, Siegel-Schwall Band, Dave Spector & The Bluebirds, Peter Green, and Cyril Neville create a mixture you might not hear anywhere else. But you'll agree it's a mixture that makes for another hour of the finest blues you've never heard.

The 207th Roadhouse is a good mix of past and future. I dig into the vault of the early shows, warming up for next week's anniversary show, and come up with some real gems. There are also four tracks from new releases and requests from Twitter and Facebook, the future of Roadhouse interaction. Joanne Shaw Taylor, Paul Rishell & Annie Raines, Ian Siegel, Toni Price, and Lonnie Brooks crank things up for the 207th Roadhouse Podcast, another hour of the finest blues you've never heard.

There's no particular place to go in this edition of The Roadhouse - no real plan or theme. There is, however, a solid hour of blues with a surprise around every corner. I've got Lonnie Brooks, Hubert Sumlin, Dave Gross, Bo Ramsey, Erja Lyytinen - just an indication of the variety of artists in the 180th Roadhouse. They may be diverse, but the artists all fit together nicely to form another hour of the finest blues you've never heard - the 180th Roadhouse Podcast.
