On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with bassist Tim Lefebvre for a conversation about groove, adaptability, tone, and what it really means to serve the music. Tim has built one of the most distinctive and wide-ranging careers in modern bass playing, with credits spanning jazz, rock, pop, experimental music, and singer-songwriter projects. From David Bowie's Blackstar to Tedeschi Trucks Band, Wayne Krantz, and countless sessions in between, Tim has become one of those rare players whose sound is unmistakable yet fits almost anywhere.We begin by talking about his 2026 so far, which includes recording work, short touring runs, a date with Nate Smith and Jason Lindner, upcoming shows in Italy with Tiziano Ferro, and a tour with Melissa Etheridge. From there, we get into one of the central tensions of a working musician's life: how to bring your own identity to a project while still honoring the artist, the songs, and the original recordings. Tim has strong instincts here, and he speaks with great clarity about choosing simplicity, resisting overplaying, and understanding what the music actually needs.One of my favorite parts of this conversation is hearing Tim talk about some of the landmark experiences in his career. We discuss the Bryan Adams tour, the joy of playing huge songs in front of large crowds, and then spend time on David Bowie's Blackstar, including how Tim approached the sessions, how much of the rhythmic language was already implied in Bowie's demos, and how some of the bass textures on songs like “Lazarus” emerged naturally in the room. Tim also reflects on the creative freedom and trust inside Tedeschi Trucks Band, and what it felt like to be part of a band that could take real improvisational chances in front of thousands of people.Along the way, we talk gear, compression, pedals, picks, strings, remote recording, favorite drummers, the differences between New York and Los Angeles, sobriety, and some of the bass players who shaped his ear early on, including James Jamerson, Paul McCartney, Darryl Jones, Marcus Miller, Victor Bailey, Jaco Pastorius, and Tony Levin. This is a conversation about craft, but also about judgment, restraint, and learning to make the right choice in the moment.Key TakeawaysTim Lefebvre talks about balancing personal identity with the responsibility of serving the artist, the arrangement, and the song.He shares stories from the making of David Bowie's Blackstar, including how parts of “Lazarus” developed in the studio.Tim reflects on the musical and emotional intensity of playing with Tedeschi Trucks Band and the freedom that the group allowed onstage.He discusses his early path from saxophone to bass, his father's influence, and learning on real gigs at a young age.The conversation explores how bass playing varies with the drummer and what Tim listens for when locking in with someone new.Tim also gets into gear, including pick playing, flats versus rounds, bass compression, distortion, reverb, and how pedals can shape creative ideas.We talk openly about sobriety, professional growth, and how life experience changes the way a musician shows up on and off the bandstand.Music from the EpisodeAnyhow - Tedeschi Trucks BandShake Loose - Donny McCaslinIt's No Fun Not to Like Pop - Krantz/Carlock/LefebvreHanging On - KnowerBlackstar - David BowieAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a podcast where I sit down with musicians, songwriters, producers, and creative people for thoughtful conversations about craft, collaboration, career, and the experiences that shape a life in music.

Doggziller and Jellphonic popped thru the show this ep! We were still buzzing from Friday's Circling Sun show at the Pitt St Methodist Churc, so we had to kick off with their "Bliss Part 2" before spinning a couple for the birthday girl Linda Clifford dropping a couple from her late-70s RSO Records disco nuggets "Don't Give It Up" and "Runaway Love". From there things got properly funky: Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band's steel-pan reading of Mtume's "Juicy Fruit" (the B-side 45 on Big Crown, 2022), Bobby Oroza doing his Finnish-Texan soul thing on "I Got Love," and the Terea deep cut "Pretty Bird." The boogie continuum kept things moving through The Deele, O'Bryan, and a touch of Tatsuro Yamashita's 1977 City Pop gem "Paper Doll," before Evelyn Champagne King's "Shake Down," Dynasty's "Check It Out," and The Time's "Get It Up" pushed the tempo right up. The second half ranged wide without losing the thread. Leenalchi's "Here Comes That Crow" - the Seoul seven-piece's just-dropped Luaka Bop debut, a chopped pansori tale rerouted through bass-heavy psych-funk - sat comfortably alongside Daktaris' raw Afrobeat ("Eltsuhg Ibal Lasiti" from their Soul Explosion LP from the Daptone studio) and a run of West African gold: Zeal Onyia's Nigerian highlife, Ebo Taylor & Pat Thomas' "Yes Indeed" (originally recorded in Togo for the 1981 Abotar LP Super Sounds Namba), and Julian Y Su Combo's Afro-Cuban "Enyere Kumbara." Sharon Jones's "What If We All Stopped Paying Taxes," Trio Mocotó's samba-funk "Chamego De Ine," and (birthday boy) Marcus Miller's "I Could Give You More". Heatwave's "Too Hot To Handle" clocked 50 years this month, so you know we had to give "Ain't No Half Steppin" some airtime. Press the button.

Een TORcast geheel gewijd aan de muziek van Miles Davis. Miles werd honderd jaar geleden (op 26 mei 1926) geboren en ontwikkelde zich tot één van de belangrijkste musici, niet alleen in de geschiedenis van de jazz maar in die van hele hedendaagse muziek. In deze TORcast laat Willem Habers een selectie van zijn favoriete Davis-opnames horen. Geen uitputtende opsomming, geen verantwoord chronologisch overzicht, geen doorwrocht spectrum van ’s mans invloeden en werk maar een heel persoonlijke keuze uit het gigantische oeuvre van deze jazzgigant. Playlist: Seven Steps to Heaven Miles Davis (trompet), Ron Carter (bas), Anthony Williams, Frank Butler (drums), Herbie Hancock, Victor Feldman (piano), George Coleman (tenorsax), Nefertiti Miles Davis (trompet), Wayne Shorter (tenorsax), Tony Williams (drums), Ron Carter (bas), Herbie Hancock (piano) Boplicity Miles Davi (trompet), Lee Konitz (altsax), Gerry Mulligan (baritonsax), John Lewis (piano), Kenny Clark (drums), Nelson Boyd (bas)J.J.

Wie naar Davis luistert, hoort niet alleen noten, maar ook een bepaalde houding ten opzichte van tijd, stilte en vernieuwing. Zijn oeuvre lijkt zich steeds te onttrekken aan elke definitie die men erop loslaat. Dat maakt zijn betekenis filosofisch relevant: Davis laat zien dat identiteit niet iets statisch is, maar een proces van voortdurende transformatie. Een van de opvallendste kenmerken van zijn muziek is het gebruik van ruimte. In albums als *Kind of Blue* wordt stilte niet als leegte ervaren, maar als een actief element. Deze benadering roept vragen op over de aard van expressie zelf. Moet muziek altijd gevuld zijn, of kan juist het weglaten een diepere vorm van communicatie zijn? Davis' antwoord lijkt te zijn dat betekenis ontstaat in de spanning tussen klank en stilte. Daarmee sluit hij aan bij een bredere existentiële intuïtie: dat wat niet gezegd wordt, vaak even belangrijk is als wat wel wordt uitgesproken. Daarnaast belichaamt Davis het idee van artistieke vrijheid als morele houding. Hij weigerde zich te conformeren aan de verwachtingen van zijn publiek of de industrie. Telkens wanneer hij succes bereikte—of het nu ging om bebop, modal jazz of fusion—koos hij ervoor om een nieuwe richting in te slaan. In die zin is zijn carrière een praktijk van wat de filosoof Nietzsche “zelfoverwinning” noemde: het voortdurend achterlaten van het oude zelf om ruimte te maken voor het nieuwe. Deze radicale trouw aan vernieuwing maakt hem tot een bron van inspiratie voor hedendaagse musici. De invloed van Miles Davis op huidige jazzmuzikanten ligt dan ook niet alleen in specifieke harmonieën of technieken, maar in een manier van denken. Moderne jazz kenmerkt zich door hybriditeit: invloeden van hiphop, elektronische muziek en wereldmuziek vloeien samen tot nieuwe vormen. Deze openheid is rechtstreeks schatplichtig aan Davis' grensverleggende experimenten, vooral in zijn latere werk zoals *Bitches Brew*. Hij legitimeerde het idee dat jazz geen afgesloten traditie is, maar een permeabel veld waarin alles kan worden opgenomen. Ten slotte blijft Davis relevant omdat hij de luisteraar actief betrekt. Zijn muziek vraagt om aandacht, om interpretatie, om een zekere existentiële inzet. Zij is nooit volledig transparant; er blijft altijd iets ongrijpbaars. In een tijd waarin muziek vaak als achtergrondconsumptie fungeert, herinnert Davis ons eraan dat luisteren een vorm van denken is. Zo bezien is Miles Davis niet alleen een muzikant, maar een filosoof in klank. Zijn erfenis leeft voort in elke muzikant die durft te experimenteren, te twijfelen en opnieuw te beginnen—en in elke luisteraar die bereid is om in die zoektocht mee te gaan.

**Bass Archaeology – Episode 6** is a journey through groove, restraint, soul and emotional depth, tracing how the bass guitar (and low-end in all its forms) shapes feeling across generations. This episode moves from deep-pocket funk to cinematic pop, from system culture sub-bass to melodic classic rock, always returning to one central idea: the bass is the emotional compass of the song. The foundation is laid with ***Aretha Franklin – Rock Steady***, powered by the impeccable **Chuck Rainey**. His syncopated, bubbling line doesn't just underpin the track, it drives it forward with swagger and precision. Rainey's feel is elastic yet locked, a masterclass in groove economy that sets the tone for the episode's emphasis on pocket and feel over flash. That dancefloor pulse carries into ***Sybil – Let Yourself Go***, where late-80s electronic disco soul production leans on rounded, supportive bass that keeps things buoyant and optimistic. It's smooth, club-ready low-end, less intricate, more about lift and flow. Then ***Galliano – Little Ghetto Boy*** deepens the conversation. Rooted in the UK acid jazz movement, the bass playing here is fluid and expressive, echoing jazz phrasing while holding down a streetwise groove. It feels conscious, grounded, socially aware. The mood shifts into atmosphere with ***Nightmares on Wax – Nights Interlude & Stars***. Here, the bass becomes textural & warm, enveloping, almost meditative. It's less about the line and more about the tone, acting as a cushion for late-night introspection. That low-frequency immersion continues through ***Layo & Bushwacka! – Deep South (Lazyboy Remix)*** and ***Buck Meets Dub Theory – Dub Theory Rework***, where bass is engineered as much as played. These tracks nod to reggae and dub lineage with sub-bass as physical presence, felt in the chest, creating space as much as rhythm. Modern soul re-enters with ***Olivia Dean – Loud***, where live bass adds intimacy and humanity beneath her vocal vulnerability of the voice and talent of now as a total constrast. Then comes a masterclass in groove minimalism: ***Luther Vandross – Never Too Much***, anchored by **Marcus Miller**. His crisp, articulate line is joyful and propulsive, a perfect example of how technical precision can still feel effortless and celebratory. ***SAULT – Masterpiece*** strips things back emotionally. The bass is understated but essential & grounding the track's affirming, almost spiritual tone. It's proof that sometimes the most powerful basslines are the ones that breathe and allow space. Vulnerability peaks with ***RAYE – I Know You're Hurting (Live, Montreux)***, The Amazing voice of a generation RAYE, where the bass reacts in real time, dynamic and sensitive. It underscores the fragility of the performanc, A live bass and melody as good as any emotional support system. The episode then widens into psychedelia with ***The Beatles – Strawberry Fields Forever***. **Paul McCartney's** melodic approach to bass playing is front and centre, inventive, exploratory, almost orchestral. His lines don't just sit in the background; they converse with the song's surreal textures. The scope widens further with Eagles – Hotel California (Live), where the bass locks into a steady, expansive rock foundation, supporting the drama of the performance. Finally, Fleetwood Mac – Dreams closes the episode with John McVie's restrained, hypnotic pulse — calm, spacious, timeless. Finally, ***Fleetwood Mac – Dreams*** closes the journey with the restrained brilliance of **John McVie**. His playing is steady, spacious, hypnotic — a reminder that feel, timing and note choice outweigh complexity. The bass doesn't shout; it reassures. Across Episode 6, the feeling that runs throughout is emotional grounding through the message of sound, Whether through funk precision, acid jazz fluidity, dub depth, soul warmth, or classic rock melody, the bass consistently acts as the anchor, the element that holds everything together while allowing the story to unfold above it. This episode is about, feeling, patience, tone, and truth. It's about listening beyond the surface and recognising that the real narrative often lives in the low end which drives the univererse forward with aplomb. See you on Episode 7. Cookee
Photo: Public Domain WikipediaKeyboardist: Gail NoblesA classic R&B song from the early 1990s is striking a powerful chord with listeners today, proving its timeless message about guarding one's heart."Don't Want to Be a Fool," performed by the legendary Luther Vandross, was originally released in June 1991. It served as the second single from his hit album *Power of Love*. Written and produced by Vandross alongside collaborator Marcus Miller, the song was a major success, climbing to number four on the Billboard R&B chart and reaching the top ten of the all-genre Hot 100 chart that fall.While it was a chart-topper in its era,in the 90's, I wasn't a big fan of the song. However, upon hearing it again recently, I found myself completely absorbed by its mood and the song's core message.The lyrics, particularly the resolved chorus, "Well, I've decided I can't let nobody hurt me again / So I'll say to the end / I just don't want to be a fool," are being embraced as an anthem of self-protection and emotional wisdom.This renewed appreciation highlights how Vandross's soulful delivery and the song's enduring theme continue to connect, offering a powerful soundtrack for anyone determined to learn from past hurts and move forward with stronger boundaries. I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to the Cat Bear.Music commentary news.
In this episode, I'm joined by Grammy-winning keyboardist, composer, producer, and arranger Jason Miles - an artist whose legacy spans decades of music-making across jazz, R&B, and beyond, and whose work has helped define the sound and direction of multiple musical eras, working alongside some of the most influential voices in modern music like Miles Davis, Luther Vandross, Grover Washington Jr., David Sanborn and Marcus Miller, to name a few.No less than Roberta Flack said about him, “Jason Miles has raised the level of excellence for the musicians who have had the good fortune of working with him, myself included. He has enriched the lives of millions of people.” And Miles Davis, in his 1991 autobiography, labelled Jason a genius - not a term he threw around!Jason and I met here in Lisbon, and what started as a conversation became a very honest and enriching exchange for me. I'm grateful to have had the opportunity to sit down with him.This podcast explores the journey behind the music - the decisions, mindset, and lessons that shape a sustainable creative life, especially in today's DIY landscape. We begin our interview by talking about what Luther Vandross understood about music that most musicians never quite grasp.From there, Jason shares the biggest lessons he's learned across his outstanding career — we explore creative decision-making, trust on the business side of music, and his perspective on today's jazz landscape compared to the past, as well as Jason's 2026 musical projects.This conversation is about practises that still guide artists today. If you're an independent musician looking for clarity and perspective, I am sure you'll find a lot of inspiration in hearing Jason's stories, reflections and guiding principles.Jason Miles - Links:WebsiteThe Extraordinary Journey of Jason MilesBandcampTable of contents:00:00 Intro03:29 Luther Vandross's integrity & intention14:26 Advice for DIY artists: listen & learn21:16 Why decision-making matters22:19 Trust in the business side of music23:11 Dealing with rejection26:11 Today's jazz landscape28:27 Jason Miles' 2026 projectsAs you listened, what reflection stayed with you the most?Let's talk about today's episode:

I had a chance to catch up with veteran studio legend Steve Sykes and he shared a lot of cool stories and studio tips in this interview. We had a blast! His advice for young people starting in the business is straight inside scoop and he shares it towards the end of this video.Steve's knowledge of diverse musical styles is demonstrated in his wide list of credits which include many Latin artists. He has worked with superstars Enrique Iglesias, Luis Fonsi and Cristian Castro, Puerto Rican songstress Ednita Nazario, Thalía, Maria Conchita Alonso and Argentinian ska rockers “Los Fabulosos Cadillacs”. Many of these albums went gold or platinum. After mixing a couple of albums for platinum selling Spanish rock band Seguridad Social, they asked him to come to Spain to produce an album. That collaboration resulted in the hit album “Camino Vertical”. A year later, Steve again headed to Spain to produce another album for the band, “Va Por Ti”. His international projects also include many for Japanese clients and he has made numerous trips to Japan to record and mix. Among his Japanese projects are the number one hit and platinum album “Love Again” for popular band Globe and teenage superstar Rie Miyazawa's first album. Steve won a Japanese recording award for his work on Mari Ijima's album “Good Medicine” in 1996. Recently Steve mixed a best of album for Italian star Umberto Tozzi with producer Greg Mathieson. Other musical genres Steve has worked in extensively are jazz and smooth jazz. He has recorded and mixed for most of the major artists on the smooth jazz charts including multiple albums for artists including The Rippingtons, David Benoit, Mindi Abair, Rick Braun, Jeff Golub, Wayman Tisdale, Peter White, Paul Taylor, Everette Harp, Brian Culbertson, Diane Schuur, Eric Marienthal and Warren Hill. He mixed an album for reggae group Black Uhuru which went to the top of the Billboard World Music charts. He recorded tracks for two albums by Lalah Hathaway, both of which had hit singles on the Adult R&B and Hot R&B charts. Steve recorded and mixed the reunion album for jazz fusion band Seawind. He recorded and mixed two albums for singer Miki Howard. “Miki Sings Billie” was her tribute album to legendary jazz vocalist Billie Holiday and featured full orchestra recordings by Steve at Capitol Studios. In 2008, Steve recorded and mixed Al Jarreau's top Contemporary Jazz Christmas album “Christmas”. Recently Steve has recorded tracks for celebrity DJ “DJ Cassidy”, whose first single “Calling All Hearts” features Robin Thicke and Jessie J. Cassidy's album “Paradise Royale” hosts a who's who of the hottest studio musicians and performers in the world including drummer John “JR” Robinson, guitarists Paul Jackson Jr and Nile Rodgers, bassists Marcus Miller, Freddie Washington, Verdine White and Bobby Watson. Among the performers on this album were Larry Dunn and Philip Bailey, thus reuniting Steve with his former band mates. This time Steve was the engineer and not the guitar player. In an issue of Electronic Musician magazine, Steve gives an in depth interview where he explains some of the recording techniques, studios and equipment he used in the making of this album.Find out more about steve at his website https://www.stevesykes.comFor video episodes and more visit Rob's channel at https://youtube.com/planetmullins
Jazz and funk musician Brian Culbertson first made waves in the smooth jazz scene when he was just a college student. Twenty-nine albums and 41 Billboard chart-topping songs later, he's still creating music on his piano and keyboard that make fans groove and chill.His latest album is "Day Trip" and it features artists such as Marcus Miller and the Bay Area's own Shelia E. And this summer, Brian is hosting his 13th annual Napa Valley Jazz Getaway.
In this episode, I sit down with bassist and vocalist Keith Horne, and it feels like reconnecting with a player I've admired for decades. I talk about the first time I experienced Keith live in 1996, when I was a freshman at Belmont University, and he was on the road with Peter Frampton. I still remember the impact of his touch, time, and musical confidence. From there, Keith and I dig into how his musical life started as a kid playing bluegrass with his dad, how flatpicking shaped his speed and articulation, and why being a multi-instrumentalist gave him an unusually complete view of the bandstand. We talk about his left-handed approach to playing guitar, how he learned guitar upside down, how he originally played drums left-handed, and why he eventually switched to a right-handed kit to survive the reality of shared backlines and sit-ins.Keith tells some incredible stories about chasing complex instruments, including the moment he finally found a left-handed pedal steel, how watching great steel players for years taught him the mechanics before he ever owned one, and how quickly he was able to apply that knowledge once the instrument was in front of him. We also trace the exact moment bass became his leading voice, when a bassist in his dad's band left his instrument at the house, and Keith quietly learned it without telling anyone, then shocked his dad by switching instruments mid-gig at age twelve and never looking back. That leads to a bigger conversation about why starting on drums is a superpower for a bassist, how it teaches you the unspoken communication between rhythm section players, and why Keith's time feel became one of his calling cards, including a compliment from Dennis Chambers that still stands out as one of the biggest of his life.Keith and I go deep on the singing bassist problem, how to keep vocals expressive while staying locked on bass, and how harmony singing often becomes the secret weapon that gets you the gig. He shares how his range and high harmony work opened doors, how constant performing strengthened his voice over time, and how he learned to shift between full voice and falsetto through heavy gigging and demanding material. We talk about the artists and songs that shaped his bass worldview, from Earth, Wind & Fire and Verdine White to Bernard Edwards, Stanley Clarke, Marcus Miller, Chuck Rainey, and Jaco. Keith tells the story of hearing Stanley Clarke for the first time and having his entire concept of the instrument explode overnight.A significant highlight is Keith's time in the Virginia fusion band Secrets, a band he calls the best musical situation he's ever been in. He tells the story of sitting in on Jeff Lorber's Tune 88, getting a standing ovation for a bass solo, and then immediately being offered the gig. We talk about how quickly great players elevate your musicianship, how his first night in the band was also Carter Beauford's first night, and the feeling of instant chemistry that made it seem like they'd been playing together forever. Keith also shares stories of opening for the Yellowjackets, becoming friends with Jimmy Haslip, and the surreal mirror-image moment when the band watching their soundcheck saw an upside-down bassist and an open-handed drummer and realized they were looking at a parallel-universe version of themselves.From there, we follow Keith's move to Nashville, living with the Wooten Brothers early on, playing jam nights seven nights a week, and building a reputation fast because he could authentically cover multiple genres on demand. He breaks down how his first major Nashville gig came through the Stockyard, leading to Tanya Tucker, and how the road unfolded from there with Waylon Jennings, Peter Frampton, and Trisha Yearwood, including singing Walkaway Joe with Trisha and what it's like to work with singers so accurate they can survive monitor failures in arenas without losing pitch. We also spend time on Hot Apple Pie, the magic of that record, why it still sounds fresh, and the frustration of how label shifts and industry timing kept the band from reaching the level the music deserved.We wrap with what Keith is doing now in Florida at the Orange Blossom Opry, what makes the venue unique, how the band tailors its opening set to match each headliner, and why the schedule can be intense during the season but still sustainable because the owners take care of the musicians in a rare way. It's a wide-ranging conversation about musicianship, time feel, harmony, career longevity, and the kind of stories you only get from someone who has genuinely lived on bandstands for decades.Thank you for listening.

Join hosts Rowan Miller, Don Patterson and Marcus Miller for a wide-ranging, candid episode of Relish that explores how Christians can talk across political and cultural divides with respect. The conversation opens with a personal story about a university professor who appeared on a conservative "watch list," the threats that followed, and the missed opportunity for real dialogue — a springboard into larger concerns about polarization in American public life and the church. The hosts reflect on practical ways to have better conversations: distinguishing arguments from personal attacks, rekindling biblical literacy, and modeling respectful disagreement. They quote Luke 4 and the Sermon on the Mount as reminders of the church's call to care for the poor, lift the oppressed, and hold a faith that speaks to social concerns without becoming merely partisan. Generational change is a major theme. The episode contrasts older patterns of institutional church life with Gen Z's different expressions of faith — decentralized communities, new worship forms (including music and online platforms), and a surge in Bible interest — while asking how discipleship, mentoring, and tangible care for neighbors can follow. The hosts celebrate young people's passion while wrestling with how to translate energy into sustainable social action. Practical parish stories illustrate the point: challenges keeping institutional events and volunteer leadership alive, the end of long-standing fundraisers, and hopeful examples like meat canning and new evening services focused on Scripture, praise, prayer and healing. The dialogue emphasizes that the church can evolve its practices to better serve mission and community needs. Throughout, Rowan, Don and Marcus offer wisdom about navigating disagreement within congregations, renewing mission focus, and creating intergenerational relationships that foster discipleship. They invite listeners to suggest guests and topics and close with an encouragement to share the podcast and support the ministry's goal: helping people grow deeper in their understanding of God and his calling in daily life.

Ravi Coltrane with Marcus MillerMarcus Miller interviews Ravi Coltrane about his musical evolution and the dual legacy of his parents, Alice and John Coltrane. This insightful and candid talk, recorded live on the Journey of Jazz cruise, covers the challenges of growing up under the shadow of a jazz icon and finding one's own voice through the music.Key TakeawaysThe episode is a conversation between host Marcus Miller and guest Ravi Coltrane, focusing on Ravi's development as a jazz saxophonist.Ravi's father, John Coltrane, passed away in 1967 when Ravi was 2 years old, leaving Ravi to be raised by his mother, Alice Coltrane. Ravi notes that his father's instruments are currently in his stateroom.Ravi began his musical journey playing the clarinet throughout junior high and high school. He switched to the soprano saxophone at age 16 after his mother gave it to him for his birthday as a hint, later moving to the tenor saxophone.Ravi did not initially feel pressure from his famous last name because, during the 1970s in the San Fernando Valley where he grew up, John Coltrane was still considered "underground" or "counter culture".The death of Ravi's older brother, John Jr., in an automobile accident when Ravi was 17, caused a "void" that Ravi later filled by studying his father's music. Ravi began listening to his father's records to gain answers for questions asked at parties, and through this, the music "hit" him.Ravi worked with key members of the John Coltrane Quartet, including joining drummer Elvin Jones's band in 1991 (though he felt he was "prematurely" ready) and later working with pianist McCoy Tyner in the 2000s.Ravi and Marcus discuss the meaning of being "ready" to perform at a high level, noting that it means being "prepared to do the job properly" and recognizing that evolution and learning are continuous processes.Host and Guest InfoHost: Lee Mergner (introduction), Marcus Miller (interview).Guest: Ravi Coltrane.This talk was recorded during the Journey of Jazz cruise. Marcus Miller provided the theme music, which is a clip from his song "High Life" on his album Aphrodesia on Blue Note.The talk was captured by Brian Ratchkco and his production team.Send us a text
Relish returns with a special edition conversation about faith, culture, and the often-overlooked language of dress. Hosts Don Patterson and Rowan sit down with longtime Hillcrest history teacher and coach Marcus Miller to explore how clothing, customs, and community expectations have signaled belief across generations — and what that looks like today. The episode opens with warmth and anecdote: Marcus brings his grandfather's transition coat — a garment that marks the shift between Amish and conservative Mennonite dress — and recounts family and school memories from Iowa Mennonite School (now Hillcrest). The trio traces historical changes in plain dress, school rules about ties and coverings, and surprising student reactions to questions about feeling different as Mennonites across the decades. Rooted in Scripture, the discussion centers on Romans 12:1–2 (nonconformity and transformation) and spills into Matthew 5–7 and the fruits of the Spirit. The guests wrestle with legalism versus heartfelt worship, asking whether outward dress still matters, when it rightly communicates faith, and how external signals compare to the ongoing, often fuzzy work of spiritual action and character. Through stories — from boys in IMS letter jackets to choir tie rules, to the practical question of whether ministers should wear collars in places like prisons — the episode balances history, theology, and practical counsel. Listeners will hear perspectives on modesty, generational shifts (including modern trends in clergy attire and Gen Z expectations), and concrete spiritual practices that make a witness beyond clothing: living the Sermon on the Mount, cultivating the fruits of the Spirit, and allowing transformed actions to speak as loudly as any uniform. Expect a reflective, anecdote-rich conversation that connects family memory and church policy to broader questions about identity, witness, and cultural adaptation. Whether you're curious about Mennonite history, pastoral practice, or how to live out nonconformity in a messy world, this episode offers stories, scripture, and practical prompts to help add a little spice to your spiritual life.

Nos premiers invités #SessionLive sont Roseaux avec Ben l'Oncle Soul. (Rediffusion) Roseaux est un trio parisien composé Emile Omar, Alex Finkin et Clément Petit. Les trois mousquetaires du son cultivent leur savoir-faire désormais salué par la critique et un auditoire toujours plus nombreux depuis leur premier projet en 2012. Il leur a fallu du temps, pour prendre du recul et de la hauteur afin de nous offrir un retour tant réjouissant que retentissant. Roseaux prend racine au bord des rives de la soul, du folk, du jazz, et de la chanson de toutes les époques, une cascade de sonorités intarissables, où les trois compositeurs puisent leur inspiration et fusionnent leurs expériences. Les feuilles de Roseaux s'élancent au souffle de merveilleuses voix, choisies avec précision par les trois compères, comme celle, du chanteur américain Aloe Blacc, présent depuis le début de l'aventure, enchanteur incontournable des trois épisodes. Pensé comme une escapade onirique gorgée d'émotions, en marge de la production massive, instantanée et souvent désincarnée, Roseaux est un groupe totalement artisanal, sorte d'ovni dans le paysage musical hexagonal, qui opère à l'instinct et surtout à l'envie. Ainsi, Roseaux est devenu expert pour réunir, le temps d'un disque, les artistes qui forment spécifiquement l'ADN de leur hôte : des voix envoûtantes, une trame au piano et au violoncelle, mais aussi des rencontres et des retrouvailles, dans un univers poétique et volontairement nébuleux. Ce troisième album est l'œuvre de 3 passionnés de musique, capables d'intervertir leurs rôles : écriture, arrangements, production, d'où émergent cette fois, onze titres au mélodies ciselées dont trois instrumentaux colorés et insolites. Un périple entre mélancolie et euphorie, qui a conduit Roseaux aux confins de la planète, des Caraïbes à l'Europe en pasant par l'Afrique pour dénicher d'autres vibrations et des interprètes singuliers : la captivante chanteuse grenado-britannique Ala.ni, le petit prince afropop anglais originaire du Ghana, Ghetto Boy, et la troublante suédoise Isabel Sörling, signent ici une première collaboration flamboyante avec le groupe. Pendant que la talentueuse canado-haïtienne Mélissa Laveaux, l'hypnotique chanteur scandinave Olle Nyman, la pétillante franco-canadienne Anna Majidson et notre remarquable Ben national, déjà présents sur le deuxième volet, parviennent encore à créer la surprise en dévoilant de nouveaux aspects de leur tessiture. Les voix de Roseaux sont décidément impénétrables et sa magie se renouvelle aujourd'hui en faisant dialoguer la force de tous ces éléments scintillants, à découvrir dans un écrin de douceur et de volupté. La nature regorge de roseaux, celui-ci est unique. Titres interprétés au grand studio - With Us Feat. Ben l'Oncle Soul Live RFI - Loving You Is All I Want To Do Feat.

This interview from the Journey of Jazz cruise was hosted by Marcus Miller, co-host of that sailing, who talked with John Clayton and Jeff Hamilton, longtime co-leaders of the Clayton Hamilton Jazz Orchestra. Their Grammy Award-winning big band performed during the cruise and the two also played with their old friend Diana Krall. Marcus talked with John and Jeff about the group's formation and long 40-year history. And he opened the floor to numerous questions from the audience.

This conversation came from the recent Journey of Jazz cruise on the West Coast. The co-host of that cruise, Marcus Miller, interviewed the charismatic and expressive Dee Dee Bridgewater, who shared stories from her remarkable career of more than five decades. Dee Dee talked about how she approaches singing a song, about her love for Nancy Wilson, about living in Paris for many years, about her unique connection to Josephine Baker, about the career of her daughter China Moses, about working with Thad Jones, and finally, about the mentoring organization for women that she ran called the Woodshed Network. If there is a theme throughout the interview, it's about facing challenges and overcoming adversity.

INSANE Confession: Amish Mom Claims Husband Is “In a Fish” After Drowning at Ohio Lake It sounds like something ripped straight from a dark biblical parable — but it's real. At a quiet Ohio lake, what should have been a simple Amish family camping trip turned into one of the most shocking true crime stories of the year. By the end of the day, Marcus Miller was dead, 4-year-old Vincent was drowned, and his mother Ruth Miller was calmly telling police on bodycam that her husband was “at the bottom of the lake in a fish.” In this Hidden Killers Live segment, Tony Brueski, Stacy Cole, and Todd Michaels break down the timeline of August 23rd at Atwood Lake. What started as a “test from God” spiraled into horror: Marcus walking into the water and never returning, Ruth “giving” her son to God, and her desperate claim to officers that her husband had been swallowed whole like a modern-day Jonah. The hosts dig deep into the questions this case forces us to ask: Was Ruth Miller insane, or was this faith taken to its most destructive extreme? How does a community with limited access to mental health care handle delusions that masquerade as religious devotion? And how can a family's private spiral turn into a public tragedy that shocks the entire country? With bodycam footage capturing Ruth's chilling calmness, this case exposes the razor-thin line between devotion and delusion, faith and psychosis. Is this simply madness — or a warning about what happens when insular belief systems collide with untreated mental illness? #RuthMiller #Amish #TrueCrime #HiddenKillers #AtwoodLake #InsanityDefense #OhioCrime #Bodycam #ReligiousDelusion #FaithAndCrime Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Ever wanted to sound just like your bass heroes? We all have those iconic players who shaped the way we hear and play bass. For me, it started with revisiting Voodoo by D'Angelo and getting lost in Pino Palladino's buttery tone. That led me down the rabbit hole of dialing in his sound—and others—using the HX Stomp. The result? A custom collection of 5 HX Stomp presets inspired by five of the greatest to ever do it: Marcus Miller, Pino Palladino, Tim Lefebvre, John Patitucci, and Victor Wooten. These players have shaped entire genres—and my own musical path—with tones that are instantly recognizable yet always evolving. Rather than chase every tone they've ever played, I zeroed in on some of their most iconic recorded moments. These presets are my best attempt to capture those sounds—the ones that made me stop and rewind.Check out all the HX Presets I have in the store, including this new collection of Bass Legends. They're designed as a starting point for your curiosity, and I highly recommend diving deeper into each artist's discography to better understand their origin story. As the years unfold, the fascinating part for me is where they've all ended up on the journey. With John Patitucci you might be a huge fan of the 80's/90's Ken Smith/Yamaha records, but haven't explored the recent albums with the hollow body instruments. Marcus Miller might mean SLAP to you, but perhaps you missed his incredibly melodic finger style playing on fretless on records like Tales and Marcus. Wherever you're at in your listening and discovery, just remember that curiosity is key, and these sounds could open up a whole new world of music.

Nos premiers invités #SessionLive sont Roseaux avec Ben l'Oncle Soul. Roseaux est un trio parisien composé Emile Omar, Alex Finkin et Clément Petit. Les trois mousquetaires du son cultivent leur savoir-faire désormais salué par la critique et un auditoire toujours plus nombreux depuis leur premier projet en 2012. Il leur a fallu du temps, pour prendre du recul et de la hauteur afin de nous offrir un retour tant réjouissant que retentissant. Roseaux prend racine au bord des rives de la soul, du folk, du jazz, et de la chanson de toutes les époques, une cascade de sonorités intarissables, où les trois compositeurs puisent leur inspiration et fusionnent leurs expériences. Les feuilles de Roseaux s'élancent au souffle de merveilleuses voix, choisies avec précision par les trois compères, comme celle, du chanteur américain Aloe Blacc, présent depuis le début de l'aventure, enchanteur incontournable des trois épisodes. Pensé comme une escapade onirique gorgée d'émotions, en marge de la production massive, instantanée et souvent désincarnée, Roseaux est un groupe totalement artisanal, sorte d'ovni dans le paysage musical hexagonal, qui opère à l'instinct et surtout à l'envie. Ainsi, Roseaux est devenu expert pour réunir, le temps d'un disque, les artistes qui forment spécifiquement l'ADN de leur hôte : des voix envoûtantes, une trame au piano et au violoncelle, mais aussi des rencontres et des retrouvailles, dans un univers poétique et volontairement nébuleux. Ce troisième album est l'œuvre de 3 passionnés de musique, capables d'intervertir leurs rôles : écriture, arrangements, production, d'où émergent cette fois, onze titres au mélodies ciselées dont trois instrumentaux colorés et insolites. Un périple entre mélancolie et euphorie, qui a conduit Roseaux aux confins de la planète, des Caraïbes à l'Europe en pasant par l'Afrique pour dénicher d'autres vibrations et des interprètes singuliers : la captivante chanteuse grenado-britannique Ala.ni, le petit prince afropop anglais originaire du Ghana, Ghetto Boy, et la troublante suédoise Isabel Sörling, signent ici une première collaboration flamboyante avec le groupe. Pendant que la talentueuse canado-haïtienne Mélissa Laveaux, l'hypnotique chanteur scandinave Olle Nyman, la pétillante franco-canadienne Anna Majidson et notre remarquable Ben national, déjà présents sur le deuxième volet, parviennent encore à créer la surprise en dévoilant de nouveaux aspects de leur tessiture. Les voix de Roseaux sont décidément impénétrables et sa magie se renouvelle aujourd'hui en faisant dialoguer la force de tous ces éléments scintillants, à découvrir dans un écrin de douceur et de volupté. La nature regorge de roseaux, celui-ci est unique. Titres interprétés au grand studio - With Us Feat. Ben l'Oncle Soul Live RFI - Loving You Is All I Want To Do Feat.

26ème édition du Festival Gnaoua et Musiques du Monde, une aventure musicale et humaine hors du commun. Zoom sur Tao Ehrlich. C'est la marque du festival Gnaoua et Musiques du Monde depuis sa création en 1998, entamer une conversation entre les Maâlems marocains, maîtres incontestés de la transe et gardiens d'un héritage ancestral, et des musiciens étrangers (principalement des jazzmen) Wayne Shorter, Joe Zawinul, Archie Shepp, Randy Weston, Nguyen Lê, Omar Sosa, Snarky Puppy, Oumou Sangare, Dimi Mint Abba, Vincent Segal, Cyril Atef, Pat Metheny, Didier Lockwood, Anga Diaz, Will Calhoun (Living Color), Marcus Miller, Buika, Les Amazones d'Afrique, Ray Lema, Ismael Lô, Carlinhos Brown, Lucky Peterson... sont passés à Essaouira. Encore cette année, les Maâlems Hamid Elkasri, Houssam Gania, Asmaa Hamzaoui, Mohamed Boumezzough ou Omar Hayat se sont prêtés au jeu de la fusion. Pour l'édition 2025, nous avons choisi de suivre une fusion de A à Z : Maâlem Mohamed Boumezzough (guembri, chant), Tao Ehrlich (batterie), Aly Keita (balafon), Hajar Alaoui (chant), Anas Chlih (ouitar), Martin Guerpin (saxophone), Quentin Ghomari (trompette) et les kouyous Amine Bassi, Hamza Gania et Karim Ziad (directeur artistique). Du mercredi 18 juin au Conservatoire où les musiciens ont répété jusqu'à l'apothéose du 21 juin sur la scène Moulay Hassan. Par ailleurs, nous avons fait le choix de mettre l'accent sur Tao Ehrlich, un enfant du festival. Né en 1996, Tao a connu Essaouira et sa faune musicale dès l'âge de 2 ans, en suivant son père le musicien Loy Erhlich, alors l'un des 3 directeurs artistiques du festival. À 29 ans, Tao est un batteur confirmé, il accompagne le oudiste et compositeur tunisien Dhafer Youssef sur scène et poursuit 3 projets personnels. Site festival gnaoua. Réalisation/Son : Steven Helsly et Mathias Taylor. Réalisation vidéo : Dominique Fiant.

Episode 78: Omar Hakim. Today on the pod we've got one of the most recorded drummers of all time. The legendary Omar Hakim! We went deep for over 2 hours, and unlocked SO MUCH GOLD, so we're releasing this conversation in two parts. In Part 1, Omar shares the stories behind some of his most iconic recordings, including his legendary session with David Bowie on Let's Dance, his deep musical relationship with Nile Rodgers, and his time in Weather Report. We also get into the wild story of how he tracked the entire Dire Straits album "Brothers in Arms" (including the questions I've always had about Money for Nothing). With this interview, I hope you'll now understand how Omar became the legend he is today. I think your mind will be blown when you hear about the caliber of musicians that were around him since he was a kid! Part 2 drops next week. For now, here's the first hour of my conversation with the amazing Omar Hakim. ‘Go with Elmo Lovano' is a weekly podcast where Elmo interviews creatives and entrepreneurs in music on HOW they push forward every day, got where they are in their careers, manage their personal lives, and share lessons learned and their most important insights.
