While this album is a bit soft for our typical rock and roll podcast, you just can't talk about music in the early 70's without giving some attention to the Carpenters.  The dual of siblings Karen and Richard Carpenter would have a multitude of hits based on their close harmonies and melodic pop sensibilities.  They began as a jazz group in 1966 when Karen was still in high school, and would eventually sign to A&M Records as the Carpenters in early 1969.  Richard Carpenter was the keyboardist and primary driver behind the Carpenters' sound. Karen began as the groups drummer, and would continue in this role intermittently, though her distinctive vocals demanded her to often be out front on tour with a touring drummer (Hal Blaine) taking her place behind the kit.A Song for You was the Carpenters fourth studio album.  It featured a mixture of songs written or co-written by Richard Carpenter, and songs from other songwriters adapted to the group by Richard Carpenter.  It reached number 4 on the Billboard 200 albums chart in the US and number 13 on the UK Albums chart.  Six of the 12 songs (plus a reprise of the title track) were released as singles.The Carpenters were careful in managing their image and maintained a wholesome persona throughout their career.  Richard Carpenter would balk at the "squeaky clean" image that A&M Records, believing that the focus should be more on the music than their image.  Much later the struggles Richard faced with pills would come to light, and Karen's death in 1983 as a consequence of anorexia nervosa would put a much-needed spotlight on the eating disorder affecting countless people.The Carpenters produced 10 albums over their 14-year career, along with a number of singles and multiple television specials.  Lynch brings us a look at the softer side of rock for today's podcast. Goodbye to LoveRichard Carpenter and John Bettis wrote this song.  Carpenter was inspired to write this track after seeing a 1940 Bing Crosby film called "Rhythm on the River."  In the film, the struggling songwriter often refers to his greatest composition being "Goodbye to Love," but the song is never played.  Carpenter took this inspiration and created the song.   Top of the WorldOne of the best known songs from the Carpenters today, this track was not originally intended to be a single.  However, after country singer Lynn Anderson had success with a cover, the Carpenters reconsidered and released the song as a single.  It would top the US charts in 1973, one of three Carpenters songs to do so. Hurting Each OtherGary Geld and Peter Udell wrote the original song which was first performed by Jimmy Clanton in 1965.  The Carpenters had the Wrecking Crew as their session musicians on their arrangement which went to number 2 on the U.S. charts.  A Song for YouThe title song from the album was originally written and performed by Leon Russell on his 1970 solo debut.  Though the Carpenters version was not released as a single, it starts and concludes the album, making the whole a concept reflecting on its plea for understanding and forgiveness.  ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Main theme from the television series "The Waltons"This historical drama set in West Virginia during the depression began in September 1972. STAFF PICKS:Saturday in the Park by ChicagoRob open this week's staff picks with a song penned by Robert Lamm for the album Chicago V.  The inspiration was either a walk in Central Park on July 4, 1970, or a compilation of film shot in Central Park in the early 70's.  The track reached number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, the highest-charting single from Chicago at the time.Rock 'N' Roll Soul by Grand Funk RailroadWayne's staff pick is the closing anthem from Grand Funk Railroad's sixth studio album, Phoenix.  The lyrics from this Detroit group celebrate the power of rock music as a source of joy, freedom, and self-expression.  "Tell everyone you know, you've got some Rock and Roll soul."Use Me by Bill WithersBruce brings us a song that Withers penned as a funny answer to those who thought he was too nice.  Bill Withers claimed that he wasn't very popular and had a stutter until his late 20's.  This song was basically Withers saying, "OK, you want a nasty boy?  Well here I come!"  It is his second biggest hit in the U.S. behind "Lean on Me," and reached number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.  Alone Again (Naturally) by Gilbert O'SullivanLynch closes out the staff picks with an introspective ballad.  Despite the upbeat tempo and melody, the lyrics are quite dark.  The first verse contemplates suicide after a failed attempt at a wedding, while other verses question the existence of God and lament the loss of parents. Irish singer-songwriter O'Sullivan originally did not include this single on his second album, "Back to Front," but included it on re-issues due to its popularity.  It spent six weeks on top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Popcorn by Hot ButterYou may not know the name, but you've surely heard this instrumental ditty that went to number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and closes out today's podcast.   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.

Crafted with love, Fuelled by my eternal dedication to unleash the true raw & undiluted power that these eternal classics hold within their grooves as I release another Soul A:M Records original Production LP Showcase, Enjoy,

Aux portes des années 70, alors que la jeunesse américaine s'embrase dans un tourbillon de révolte et de rébellion, un duo frère-sœur se démarque avec une musique pop romantique et suave. Découvrez l'histoire fascinante des Carpenters, avec leur voix d'ange et leurs mélodies enivrantes, qui ont conquis le cœur du monde entier.Originaires du Connecticut, Karen et Richard Carpenter grandissent dans une banlieue typique de la classe moyenne. Très tôt, le jeune Richard montre un talent inné pour le piano, poussant la famille à déménager à Los Angeles, berceau du rêve musical californien. De son côté, Karen se passionne pour la batterie au sein de la fanfare de son lycée. Lorsque le groupe dans lequel ils évoluent se sépare, les deux frères et sœurs décident de former un duo. Malgré les réticences initiales de Karen à chanter, c'est finalement sa voix cristalline qui leur permet de signer avec le label A&M Records. Leur premier single, une reprise de « Ticket to Ride » des Beatles, ne rencontre pas le succès escompté. Mais leur deuxième essai, « Close to You », les propulse sur le toit du monde, révélant au grand jour l'une des plus belles voix de la pop américaine.Pendant que le rock'n'roll électrise la planète, les Carpenters imposent un son unique, doux et enveloppant, porté par les arrangements raffinés de Richard et la voix angélique de Karen. Derrière cette façade lisse et édulcorée, se cache pourtant une réalité bien moins rose.

We lost two Minneapolis icons in the last month, and this week’s episode is a tribute to both. After suffering a sever stroke in 2012, Slim held on for well over a decade before passing away on December 18, 2024. Besides a couple of great tributes to the man by The Mad Ripple and The Walk Offs, this episode features music Slim created with Curtiss A, The Replacements, and as a solo artist. There’s also a couple of sets of cover tunes from the wonderful Songs For Slim tribute series, along with a surprising superstar cover that debuted on Sirius shortly after his death. On January 5, 2025, former Suburbs singer/guitarist Beej Chaney accidentally died during a swim in the Pacific Ocean near Hermosa Beach, California. The last half hour of the broadcast features a sampling from all of the groundbreaking band’s releases on Twin/Tone and A&M Records.  Our hearts go out to everyone affected by the passing of these legends.

Storytelling folk troubadour and songwriter's songwriter David Wilcox dives deep on his creative process.PART ONE:Paul and Scott pay tribute to the late Kris Kristofferson and Hugh Prestwood before diving in to a cringey lyrical trend that they're happy to see fade into history. PART TWO:Our in-depth conversation with David WilcoxABOUT DAVID WILCOX:Emerging from the Asheville, North Carolina progressive folk scene in the late 1980s, David Wilcox signed with A&M Records and carved out a reputation as an insightful, sensitive, and often funny singer-songwriter and storyteller. His first album for the label, How Did You Find Me Here, sold over 100,000 copies on word of mouth alone. Often compared to James Taylor, Joni Mitchell and Nick Drake, Wilcox went on to build a dedicated following and establish himself as a songwriter's songwriter. In 2008 he was honored, alongside Bob Dylan, with Acoustic Guitar magazine's silver award in the singer-songwriter category. The San Francisco Chronicle called him the “darling of contemporary singer-songwriter folk” while Rolling Stone wrote that he “uses extended metaphors and beautifully detailed imagery in lyrics that are far more compassionate and philosophic than self-absorbed.” David has now released more than 20 albums. His most recent is My Good Friends, an acoustic collection that he describes as a fan-requested respite while he works on a new full band album.

In December 1982, the Police flew to the Caribbean island of Montserrat to record their fifth album. The executives at A&M Records were excited. A year earlier, the trio had generated hit singles like “Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic” and “Spirits in the Material World.” Suddenly, they were filling arenas.But the atmosphere in the recording studio quickly turned sour. Guitarist Andy Summers sniffed at lead singer Sting's demo of “Every Breath You Take” as cheesy pop. Drummer Stewart Copeland bristled when the singer tried to give him orders. And Sting, who had been contemplating going solo, was tired of pretending this was still a democracy: Why were they arguing about whose songs were best? Wasn't it obvious? This oral history, including interviews with Sting and the other members of the band, takes listeners inside the making of “Synchronicity,” one of the most popular records of the 20th century – and what eventually tore the band apart.
