Access this entire 70-minute episode (and additional monthly bonus episodes) by becoming a Junk Filter patron! https://www.patreon.com/junkfilter/posts/232-herb-alpert-165373100The Toronto-based musician Marker Starling (aka Chris Cummings) returns to the pod for a discussion of the career of Herb Alpert, who at age 91 is on tour with his new lineup of the Tijuana Brass; we went together to see his Toronto show at Massey Hall.It is hard to imagine today, but during the sixties only The Beatles dominated the American pop charts more thoroughly than Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass, who famously landed four albums in the Billboard Top 10 simultaneously in 1966. Their era-defining smash, 1965's Whipped Cream & Other Delights, served as a sonic harbinger of the massive cultural changes about to sweep America. The band's music quickly became ubiquitous, soundtracking everything from commercial jingles and game shows to house parties. Interestingly, while framed as a band, many of their early albums were secretly recorded by the legendary LA session musician unit The Wrecking Crew. Though changing musical tastes eventually landed millions of these vinyl records in garage sales and dollar bins, their cultural legacy remains, as evidenced by hip-hop samples and viral TikTok memes.We discuss all 13 Tijuana Brass albums but also explore Alpert's visionary work co-founding A&M Records, including key signings like The Carpenters, Chris Montez, and Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66. Finally, we discuss Herb's collaborations with Burt Bacharach and Hal David, the massive influence of A&M's jazz label CTI in mainstreaming bossa nova via Antonio Carlos Jobim and Quincy Jones, and tell you what it was like to get to finally see Herb & the Brass in concert. Follow Marker Starling on Twitter and Instagram.Here are links to Chris' most recent releases:Lammping/Marker Starling/Drew Smith - RISKY (2026)Cici Arthur - Way Through (2025)Marker Starling - Diamond Violence (2022)Herb Alpert music videosThis Guy's In Love With You (1967)Rise (1979)Route 101 (1982)
Hi, and welcome to another episode of The Talk Music Podcast!I'm thrilled to welcome JUNO Award–winning Canadian blues guitarist STEVE STRONGMAN as my guest. We recorded this most entertaining chat on my back porch on a beautiful afternoon, so listen closely and you'll hear some birds chirping in the background.Steve is one of Canada's top blues artists/guitarists, and his recording journey actually began back in 2004 with the album Honey, which I released successfully on my indie label via A&M Records. Reminiscing about that time working together made this conversation extra special and fun for me. Since then, Steve has built an incredible discography, including his 2013 JUNO-winning album A Natural Fact. His records highlight talented artists such as Harrison Kennedy, Jessie O'Brien, Crystal Shawanda, Rob Szabo, Dave King, Steve Marriner and many others. He's also an acclaimed producer, having co-written and co-produced Struck Down by Kim Wilson and The Fabulous Thunderbirds—a GRAMMY-nominated project featuring Bonnie Raitt, Keb' Mo', Taj Mahal, and Mick Fleetwood (and we go deep into how this record came together over a 2 year period).Steve has shared the stage with legends like B.B. King, Buddy Guy, Johnny Winter, and Jeff Healey, and in this chat we delve into his musical journey up to now, the story behind his favourite guitar, and as a bonus I also feature Steve with a live solo acoustic porch performance of "Struck Down (by the Blues)." Enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Could you feel the force as a distinctive sound emerged from London towns underground that would create a new tempo to unleash a raw beat for the streets... And whilst the US is still licking its wounds after the sounds of Soul was still hurting after the grooves from 79 were hi jacked that led to Disco's demise... More danceable boogie tunes were emerging so infectious the would set the template for the next generation of movers & shakers, With a little help from your UK friends from the colder side of the Atlantic... That would Unleash a UK Flava for the world to savour. Welcome back to your memories revived live, one undiluted original record at a time. Soul A:M Records Star-date 1981...Enjoy.
To combat negative effects of climate change, we all need to do our best to reduce the use of fossil fuels, water and land. California is confronting all three of these challenges simultaneously with Project Nexus, a pilot project to:Reduce the use of fossil fuels by deploying solar generation farms with battery storage.Avoid taking land away from agricultural uses by deploying them over existing canals.Conserve water by using solar arrays to cover canals, thus reducing evaporation.This project is also an unusual nexus of public, private and academic institutions, bringing together the consultancy Solar AquaGrid as project manager, the California Department of Water Resources as operator of the canals and solar farms and the University of California Merced to provide scientific assessment of the project.Joining us for this episode are ceo and co-founder Jordan Harris, chief creative officer and co-founder Robin Raj.Jordan Harris co-founded Solar AquaGrid to address one of California's most urgent challenges: water scarcity. Before committing his energy to advancing large-scale sustainability projects, Jordan had a background as a social impact entrepreneur and music business executive, including co-founding and chairing Virgin Records US, as well as leadership roles at Sony Music and A&M Records. Jordan launched many high-profile projects and pro-social initiatives – among them, co-founding Rock The Vote to engage young people in the political process by engaging the entertainment community. Jordan saw the dual-use opportunity hiding in plain sight long before anyone else was ready to act on it, and led Solar AquaGrid in commissioning the University of California Merced 2021 research study that sparked Project Nexus. After nearly a decade of advancing the water-energy nexus from concept to construction, Project Nexus is the proof of concept he hopes will unlock replication across California and beyond.In 2017, Robin Raj joined Jordan to co-found Solar AquaGrid to help conserve water and land, and generate renewable energy at scale by reimagining our water/energy infrastructure and covering large swaths of California's exposed canals with solar canopies. As an award-winning creative director, veteran of purpose-driven communications, and founder of Citizen Group, Robin has harnessed the power of media, storytelling, and community engagement throughout his career to advance social responsibility, sustainability, and climate action for some of the world's best-known brands and organizations for three decades – from Amnesty International, Bloomberg Philanthropies, NRDC, Sierra Club, Rock the Vote, and World Wildlife Fund, to Levi's, Major League Baseball, NBC Universal, Stanford Medicine, and Walmart Sustainability program.In this episode, we cover such topics as:The scale of California's canal system, stretching 4,000 miles in total.How Project Nexus is funded through the California's general fund.How Project Nexus will be evaluated.

She talks about moving from Pennsylvania to California to pursue dreams of acting after a break-up and found herself in the heart of Panorama City nowhere near Hollywood. Later she found early success in LA @ A&M RECORDS. In fact she was so successful it was a little hard to give it up when it was time to start performing full time after she became a star at THE GROUNDLINGS. She talks about how her writing at The Groundlings helped her at SNL. How Laraine Newman was always encouraging even while breast feeding. How Matt Piedmont and Will Ferril were great writing partners. How sitcoms are pure fun. And how making charcuterie boards with vaguely dirty names is going to change the world for the better. Bio: Cheri Oteri was born in the suburbs outside of Philadelphia and later moved to LA, where she worked in promotions for A&M Records. She joined the Groundlings, and in 1995, the producers of Saturday Night Live saw one of her monologues, which led to an audition and eventually being hired as a cast member, where she starred for five seasons. As of late, Cheri can be seen recurring on Happy's Place for NBC, Mid Century Modern for HULU as well as in And Just Like That… for MAX. She has also appeared in several films, including Scary Movie, Inspector Gadget, Liar Liar, Dumb and Dumberer,Shrek the Third, Southland Tales, and Grown Ups 2. In 2009, Oteri became a regular voice on Fox's animated comedy series Sit Down, Shut Up, which later moved to Comedy Central. She also voiced “Esther” on Disney's Puppy Dog Pals. Cheri has made multiple guest appearances on sitcoms such as The CW's My Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, TruTV's Those Who Can't, NBC's Just Shoot Me! (in which she was nominated for an Emmy), Hot in Cleveland, and as an emotionally unstable nanny on the Golden Globe and Emmy award winning series Curb Your Enthusiasm. She has appeared multiple times on CNN's New Year's Eve Live with Anderson Cooper & Andy Cohen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

What makes a great frontman? A technically perfect voice? Good looks? Someone who can work the stage and crowd? Someone who oozes personality, charisma, and showmanship? Does your mind instantly go to classic frontmen like Mick Jagger, Roger Daltrey, or Robert Plant? This week, we look at some of those frontmen who carried the torch during the classic alternative era. One of those guys is this week's Third Lad, Adam Sherman, the frontman for Boston power-pop rockers Private Lightning, who released an excellent underrated self-titled album for A&M Records in 1980. Following Private Lightning, Adam was the lead singer and songwriter in Americana band The Souls and a member of Boston rock n' roll institution Nervous Eaters. Adam's song from the last Nervous Eaters album, "Don't Need To Make You Mine" was named as the "Coolest Song in the World" on Little Steven's Underground Garage in 2024. Adam has also released the acclaimed solo albums Songbird, River of Dreams, and Triangle Sky - with a brand new record, Sorrows And Smiles, out in February. Learn more about your ad choices.

Interview with Steve Wynn of the Dream Syndicate. Steve Wynn is a singer, musician and songwriter. He led the band the Dream Syndicate from 1981 to 1989 in Los Angeles, afterward began a solo career, and then reformed the Dream Syndicate in 2001 Steve's info : (links to Medicine Show release ) https://www.stevewynn.net/dream_syndicate_medicine_show.php. Steve's Bio: Steve Wynn was born in Santa Monica, California in 1960 and got his first guitar (a nylon-string acoustic) when he was nine, shortly after which he wrote his first song "Sing My Blues". He formed his first band "The Light Bulbs" that same year and the band made the circuit of parties and school functions; the band's oldest member was ten years old. By the time he was 13, Wynn had played in bands with such colorful names as Purple Passion and Sudden Death Overtime, alternating between his own early originals and songs by Neil Young, The Rolling Stones and The Who. In the years that followed, Wynn found himself sidetracked by a strong desire to become a sportswriter. Abandoning his electric guitar for a notepad, pen and typewriter Wynn found himself on the other side of the interview, speaking to football, basketball and baseball players and dreaming of one day seeing his name on the masthead of Sports Illustrated. During his high school years, Wynn entertained notions of becoming a sportswriter but the excitement and immediacy of the punk rock explosion of 1977 brought him back into the world of songwriting and performing. He found himself writing and playing guitar for UC Davis (near Sacramento) New Wave pioneers "Suspects", a band for whom Wynn wrote over 100 songs, none of which he has performed since. A move back to Los Angeles with Suspects lead singer Kendra Smith was the first step towards the formation of The Dream Syndicate, the band with whom Wynn would gain national and eventually international acclaim. The Dream Syndicate played together for the first time in December 1981 and within three weeks had recorded its self-titled first EP. The record was released in April 1982 and followed six months later by the band's debut album "The Days of Wine and Roses", an album which fans and critics alike still consider one of the best and most important rock albums of all time. Those early years are represented here by "When You Smile" and "That's What You Always Say," songs which have been covered, respectively, by Concrete Blonde and Luna. The band was almost immediately signed by A&M Records for whom it recorded the landmark "Medicine Show" (the title song opens this compilation), a record that was recently named one of the 40 best rock albums of all time by the London Guardian and whose songs have been covered by REM and The Black Crowes among many others. Several years of worldwide touring (including several trips to Europe and Japan and Australia) followed before the band broke up at the end of 1988. Wynn has said "As proud as I was of The Dream Syndicate, our music and our accomplishments I felt we had reached our peak and everything that followed would have been a disappointment. I wanted to be a band that broke up while we were still doing our best work." In 1990 Wynn came back with his first solo offering "Kerosene Man," an album of incredible diversity that showed Wynn's enormous growth as a songwriter and record-maker. The songs "Carolyn" and "Tears Won't Help" were among the most-played songs that year on Modern Rock radio stations and his video for "Carolyn" was in regular rotation on MTV for six weeks. The follow-up "Dazzling Display" was Wynn's most elaborate production to date, a dizzying synthesis of the best rock music of the previous 30 years featuring the talents of, among others, REM's Peter Buck, Concrete Blonde's Johnette Napolitano and members of The Bangles, The Turtles and the touring bands of Lou Reed and Tracy Chapman. A four-day writing vacation in Richmond, Virginia with the House of Freaks' Bryan Harvey turned into the side-project supergroup Gutterball who released two albums, garnered overwhelming press response and built a frenetic cult following; the Black Crowes took the band out as its opening act even before the first Gutterball record was released. Not one to stand still, Wynn followed the success of Gutterball with the more introspective "Fluorescent", an album whose single "Carelessly" picked up heavy radio play throughout the US and Europe. In 1994, Wynn moved to New York City. He harnessed the excitement and energy of his new home in his record "Melting in the Dark". The two albums that followed,"Sweetness and Light" and "My Midnight", found Wynn settling into the sound that would define the next phase of his solo career. In 2001, Steve went to Tucson and recorded the double album "Here Come the Miracles" which was released to overwhelming critical acclaim. The album was seen as a stunning comeback and appeared on many year-end critics' surveys along with winning Best Alternative Rock Album by the American Federation of Independent Music. The album was followed by "Static Transmission" and "...tick...tick...tick", both also recorded in Tucson with his new backing unit "The Miracle 3" and which were viewed as part of a "Desert Trilogy" that is seen by many as the best work of his career. But Wynn has never been one to settle into an easy or predictable groove. Since the last of the desert trilogy he has recorded "Cast Iron Soul", a new Danny & Dusty album with Green On Red's Dan Stuart, joined forces with his wife and drummer Linda Pitmon and legendary Spanish producer Paco Loco to concoct the twisted pop side project "Smack Dab", and collaborated with the Walkabouts' Chris Eckman in Slovenia on the lush and lavish "Crossing Dragon Bridge", a record that made up a tandem of new releases in 2008 with "The Baseball Project", a baseball song cycle collaboration with Pitmon and also Scott McCaughey and Peter Buck of REM and the Minus 5. In the midst of such a prolific recording career, Wynn has still found time to average over 100 shows a year all over the world. He has found himself as welcome in Rome, Oslo, Athens, Brussels, London and Madrid as he has in Los Angeles, New York City, San Francisco, Chicago and Boston. And for the devoted fans he has made in these and many other cities, his extensive discography of music reflects the consensus among fans: that Steve Wynn is one of the most adventurous, accomplished and exciting songwriters of the last few decades. If all of this is still news to you, just put on this cd and get ready to join the legions of people who have enjoyed Wynn's dazzling display of songs over the last 25 years.

Face the Music: An Electric Light Orchestra Song-By-Song Podcast
Gin Blossoms scored a surprise hit with their second album New Miserable Experience. However, that success was bittersweet. Most of the songs were written by Doug Hopkins who was fired from the band while making the album due to his increased unreliability due to his alcoholism. A&M Records made things worse by making him sign over his royalties despite the fact he played on the majority of the release. Hopkins committed suicide in 1993 so, despite a top 10 hit from the soundtrack to Empire Records, it was a while before another Gin Blossoms album came out. When it did the title pretty much said it all.
“I realized my family's secrets had written my biography—and my biology. I wanted to take back the pen.” — Wendy Correa In this deeply moving episode of Uncorking a Story, host Mike Carlon sits down with author, yogi, and former music industry insider Wendy Correa to discuss her debut memoir, My Pretty Baby. Wendy shares her journey through intergenerational trauma, addiction, and healing—offering listeners a raw and inspiring look at how writing, spirituality, and resilience helped her reclaim her story. From singing on the Rose Bowl stage to encounters with icons like Ringo Starr and Hunter S. Thompson, Wendy's life is a testament to transformation and the power of voice. Key Takeaways: Wendy's memoir began as a personal healing journey and evolved into a guidebook for others facing family dysfunction. Her background spans massage therapy, DJing, and working with major record labels like Geffen and A&M Records. A pivotal moment in her sobriety came when she met Ringo Starr at her first AA meeting. Wendy used acting techniques and EMDR therapy to access and process repressed childhood trauma. My Pretty Baby explores the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and advocates for trauma-informed healing. The memoir also includes joyful and serendipitous moments, like meeting her husband through a song request and working with Hunter S. Thompson. Wendy challenges toxic positivity and emphasizes the importance of facing pain to truly heal.
