Both subscribers and free viewers/listeners get to enjoy this journey with Uri Geller through the museum of his life that he has created in Jaffa in Israel. He and Whitley have a great time reminiscing about mutual friends like Edgar Mitchell, Russell Targ and Hal Puthoff, as Uri shows us remarkable artifacts such as the alien object given to him by John Lennon, and Mick Jagger’s guitar. Uri describes what happened when Benjamin Netanyahu asked him to bend a spoon in a restaurant, and he tells a stunner of a story about the word “architectural.” They also talk about Uri’s Lamb Island micro-nation created to help underprivileged children with heart defects , and how you can join up!

In this half of the episode, we take a hard look at Performance, the 1970 film starring James Fox and Mick Jagger. They, along with Michele Breton and Anita Pallenberg, create a quartet that gets mixed up in drugs and sex to the point where minds are shattered. Most of the last 15 minutes of the film, we guarantee you will not see coming. COMING ATTRACTIONS:  In Episode 54 we go to France and review two movies that have crime at their center. From 1960, it's Jean-Luc Godard's Breathless, followed by Le Cercle Rouge, from 1970 and directed by Jean-Pierre Melville. We spend perhaps more time than necessary musing on the ending to Breathless. Come join us in the confusion, won't you? --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wordsandmovies/support

"Everyone is beholden to him," says Mick Jagger, when discussing Little Richard's impact on rock'n roll in the new documentary, "Little Richard: I Am Everything."

Director Lisa Cortes joins to discuss.

I met Kenny Aronoff through LinkedIn and thought he would be a fairly interesting podcast guest. Boy, was I wrong!

In his biography, you will see a partial list of the people and bands that have benefited from his talents.   You will get to hear how he eventually decided to start playing modern music. This story is one in a million and it, I must say, captivated me right from the outset. I hope it will do the same for you. I do hope you enjoy it. I'm not going to give it away. Listen and see for yourself.     About the Guest:   Kenny Aronoff is one of the world's most influential and in demand session and live drummers.

I have not done on this podcast before. But I've been looking forward to it for quite a while. I get to talk to a real live still absolutely functioning incredible man who is also a musician Kenny Aronoff has been a drummer for four decades he has played with basically anyone that you can imagine, although I'm going to try to stump him with one in a second here. But he's played with all of the people in the who's who have music no matter who they are. And and I'm so really excited to have the chance to talk with with him today. So Kenny, welcome to unstoppable mindset.   Kenny Aronoff  02:08 Thank you for having me. It's great to be here.   Michael Hingson  02:11 All while stump you right at the outset. Have you ever played with George Shearing   Kenny Aronoff  02:14 is that the guitar player who   Michael Hingson  02:16 does know George Shearing was a blind jazz pianist? He died?   Kenny Aronoff  02:20 Okay, I know. I'm thinking is that your is another guy had a close name? No, I never did. Well, there   Michael Hingson  02:25 you go. Oh, well, I found one. Well, I don't know he had a trio that he worked with. But I don't know how much he worked with a number of people primarily he played on his own. So it's not too surprising. But that's okay. But Stevie Wonder John Mellencamp Mellencamp. And have you ever. Oh, I gotta ask Have you ever played with Michael Buble? A.   Kenny Aronoff  02:51 Singer, I think he came onstage for one of these big events. Well, I play with everybody. I think I did play with Michael Boulais. He was one of the guests shows we were honoring whoever was, you know, I'll play with 25 artists in one show. Yeah. Might have. He may have been paired up with somebody else singing. Yeah. So I think I did.   Michael Hingson  03:11 Well, you know, we finally got to see him in Las Vegas. He's been my wife's idol for a long time. And I don't I enjoy him too. He's He's a singer who is saying the Great American Songbook, a lot of the old songs and all that. And he was in Vegas earlier this year. And so we got to go see him. And we actually really were very fortunate because we, we were escorted in early because my wife was in a wheelchair. And so they brought us in. And then the Azure came about five minutes before the show started and said, I've got two tickets that haven't been used down in the orchestra pit and they said I could give them to someone. Would you guys like them if the seats accessible? So of course, we said, Sure. Well, it was and we ended up being 18 rows from the stage, actually two rows in front of his family. And we got to see it was it was great. It was a wonderful concert. So   Kenny Aronoff  04:04 yeah, he's very, very talented. He's created his own niche in his own style. And that's a hard thing to do.   Michael Hingson  04:09 It is. But but he has done it. Well with you. Let's start like I love to start. Tell me a little bit about growing up and where you came from, and all that kind of stuff. Well, I   Kenny Aronoff  04:19 grew up in a very unique little town in western Mass, a group and like an old country farmhouse in the hills of Western Massachusetts to be whatever town was Stockbridge, Massachusetts. Maybe 3000 people but what was unique about that town, it was basically a slice of New York City. I mean, New York City was three hours away. Boston was two hours away. And there was a lot of arts. A lot of you know you had theater people there you had the Boston Symphony Orchestra in the next town over Atlanta, Lenox mass, which is three miles away. You had, you know, Sigmund Freud's protege, Erik Erikson, the wintertime Norman Rockwell, the illustrator lived in our town and he I used to go over to his house and me my twin brother. We I think we were in second grade. We should still cigarettes from him. We had a, you know, let's see. Norman Mailer was the next house down for me when you couldn't see anybody's houses where I lived. It was all woods and fields. But Norman Mailer, the great writer was right down the street from me. Another eighth of a mile was a Patty Hearst used to live in the house which they she had rented from the Sedgwick family, which is where Edie Edie Sedgwick came from that family. Down the bottom of the hill was a summer stock theatre where a lot of actors would come up from New York to get out of the city. So I met like, you know, people like Franklin Joe of Faye Dunaway and Bancroft, Arthur Penn, the movie director lived in our town, and so he would direct some place there. Goldie Hawn, which Dreyfus, they went on and on it. And this, this seemed normal to me. I didn't realize Daniel Chester French, who, whose was the sculptor, who did you know, the Washington Monument and Lincoln Memorial, he he at one point did our area. And when I went to Tanglewood, which is the most elite student orchestra in the country, if not the world, took me four years to get in there. But it's won by the Boston Symphony Orchestra. They only take seven percussionist in the whole world, when you when you audition, I literally failed three years in a row. And in my fourth attempt, I got in, but on that property is Nathaniel Hawthornes house. And he wrote The Scarlet Letter. I mean, I can just go on and on this area was just an extraordinarily extraordinary place to grow up with it was so many arts and intellectual people. But the thing that was amazing about this town was that it didn't matter. If you had money or had lots of money, everybody, you know, houses one locked keys were left in cars. It was a community. It was a it was a community where people support each other. So it's a great place to grow up.   Michael Hingson  07:13 That's one of the things I've always liked about Massachusetts. I lived in Winthrop for three years back in the well, late 1970s, early 1980s. But I always enjoyed the camaraderie and it was really hard to break into the community. If you were from the outside and I was viewed as an as an outsider, though I worked as hard as I could to, you know, to try to be involved. But if you weren't from there, it was really tough. By the same token, people were very kind to me, so I can't complain a whole lot. Yeah. Yeah. It was pretty good. And I was you actually beat me to the question I was going to ask you if you had ever made it over to Tanglewood. I never got to go up in here the symphony in in the winter in the summer. But I did needless to say get over to hear the pops on several occasions and and that was fun. And there's nothing like the Boston Pops. There's other than a Boston Symphony for that matter, either.   Kenny Aronoff  08:13 Well, I got to perform timpani on that stage. And with Leonard Bernstein, conducting Sibelius Fifth Symphony Orchestra, which is a feature of the timpani in and it's, it was incredible. So you know, my parents saw Easter dragged me to the concerts I didn't really want to go. And I ended up then being in we actually did Fourth of July with Arthur Fiedler. And apart from mingled in with   Michael Hingson  08:40 the half shell. Yeah. So you went to school, went to high school and all that, how long did you live there?   Kenny Aronoff  08:48 Well, I lived in non stop until I was 18. After 18, I went to one year at University of Massachusetts at Amherst, which is about an hour down the road. And then I transferred Well, what I did was I got into the Aspen School of Music, one by Julliard after my freshman year. And that's where George gave me the professor of Indiana University School of Music, now called the Jacobs School of Music. He was a he went to the percussion department at the school and this is the number one school of music in the country, if not the world. Yeah. And I wanted then I liked this guy. He was so deep. He was more than just a percussionist. He's a philosopher and a well rounded man. Anyway, I wanted to follow him and go to Indiana University. You have to realize I mean, Indiana was the best school and so I wanted to be in that school. And I demanded an audition up there and he tried to talk me out of it. Try to come back in January and will audition then. Then I said, Absolutely not. I want to audition. Now. I don't want to come to Indiana University, from the Aspen School of Music. It was a summer program. I convinced him I did audition, you had to audition for four different departments to get in. And it just so happened that they had people from four different departments that are you teaching up there like brass, woodwinds, violin percussion. And I auditioned, got in and spent four years at Indiana University. Now, that's when I started to spend more time away from home. Because you know, I was gone. You know, I come home for Christmas and summer, but that was pretty much it. Yeah. And it was an incredible education.   Michael Hingson  10:35 What? So, you, as you said, were dragged kicking and screaming to concerts and so on What changed your mind?   Kenny Aronoff  10:46 When I started to actually study classical music and start to perform in orchestras, I, I appreciate every style of music, and especially if it's done, right. And I've really, really enjoyed classical music. I mean, it was even though when I was a kid, and once rock'n'roll came out, it was like, you know, how was the classical music, but it was still on the soundtrack. To my upbringing, my parents had classical music and jazz on the turntable. They were from New York City. And that was very popular in that that time for them. So I didn't most keep the kid I had too much energy to sit and watch a concert, but performing it, you know, it was a different story. And then I became really good, eventually got into the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra after I graduated Indiana University. And I actually turned it down, which was a shock to everybody. Because I'd spent five years becoming great at classical music. And I turned it down. Because I mean, and thank God I did is because I was following my heart, my deepest desires, my bliss, or your, you know, whatever you want to call it, I wanted to still be in rock bottom open. Now, let me back up a little bit when I was 10 years old, playing outside of that country farmhouse. And there was nothing to watch on TV back then. There was no case not   Michael Hingson  12:12 much more now, either. But yeah, with the so what year was that?   Kenny Aronoff  12:17 That was 19. I want to say 1950 1963 or 64. And maybe mom yelled at me, my twin brother come in the house. And we were like, Oh my God, what do we do wrong? You know, like, we thought we'd done something wrong. And what it was that we come running across the lawn, and we'll get to the family room, she's pointed a black and white RCA TV set with the rabbit ears to get better reception. And on TV. Also never, you know, for guys playing rock and roll music, you know, electric cars and bass, that long hair, and I don't know who they are. But I heard rock and roll on radio, but I'd never seen it live. And I. I mean, I was at that very split second, I realized what my purpose in life was before I even knew what those words meant. And I just knew I wanted to be doing that. I wanted to be part of that. I want to be part of a team of guys that's playing music, like they are and I said to my mom, who are these guys said, Well, they're the Beatles, The Beatles, I want to be in the Beatles call him up, get me in the band. And give me a drum set. I don't want to play piano anymore. Anyway, she obviously didn't call the Beatles up and didn't get me a drum set. So that was where I was really blown away and realize this is what I want to do. So when I turned on the Jews from Symphony Orchestra, I turned out certainty for possibility or turns down certainty for you know, complete uncertainty. And that was that one we wanted to it's what Yeah, to do. Exactly. And thank God, I followed my heart because obviously it paid off. But it was a struggle, man, it was like took a long time for me to eventually run into a guy like John Mellencamp, who he took a chance with me, and then took a long time for me to, you know, plan a song, play a drums on a song that got on the record, you know, when I first got in the band that I had only and the reason why I got in the middle of combat is because I got the last record that they had, and they were looking for a drummer, and I just memorized everything that all these other drummers did on the record. And well, in that case, it was just wondering what but they I memorize him he played in so I won the audition. And five weeks later, we were making a record in Los Angeles. And I realized that you know, or the producer basically fired me after two days, because I had no experience with making records, you know, to get songs on the radio to be number one hits, and I was devastated. You know, I was like hey, but I played with Bernstein and Bernstein and didn't matter. I had No experience. I didn't understand the value of teamwork the level of it's not about me it's about we it's not about what I'm playing. It's about what can I play to make that song getting the right record that will eventually be played on radio and become a one hit single.   Michael Hingson  15:18 Usually got to add value.   Kenny Aronoff  15:21 Well value to the team   Michael Hingson  15:22 that was the most that's what I mean by adding Yeah,   Kenny Aronoff  15:25 yeah. Because you know, when you try to be great at anything, it's all about you. It's all about me. But to be Tom Brady are a great you know, a leader and be a great you know, do something great for the team. It is about the team. It's not about you serve the band, serve the song serve, whoever's in there. You know, serve, what can I do to get that song to be elevated to be a number one hit single? Because if you if you become an if you have a number one hits, surely you're gonna make millions dollars. It's the way it was when I was a kid.   Michael Hingson  16:00 So for you starting out more doing the I oriented kinds of things, but then moving to the we mentality, which is essentially what I hear you say, how did your style change? How did you change? How did it affect what you did?   Kenny Aronoff  16:17 Well, I wasn't thinking about just what I want to play. I was thinking about what can I do to get this song on the radio so in and I had to think about how I can be the greatest drummer I can be for John Cougar Mellencamp songs. So I started don't my plane down and made it simple and started to simplify what I was doing. And that really worked. I started this into Rolling Stones, Creedence Clearwater, Bad Company, groups, where the drummers were playing with authority. They had they pick the right beat, they kept time, they made it groove. But ultimately, it was to make those songs that song better, you know, and that's what I started changing. I simplified my playing. And I remember thinking, Man, I gotta learn to love this. Because if I don't love this, I'm gonna suck at this. If I suck it this, this, just get another drummer. And so I had to learn how to pivot into serving songs serving the artists.   Michael Hingson  17:15 Did you ever meet Buddy Rich? Absolutely. I've kind of figured, or that other great drummer Johnny Carson.   Kenny Aronoff  17:23 And never met Johnny Carson.   Michael Hingson  17:25 I remember I remember watching a Tonight Show where the two of them Oh, yeah. Did drums together?   Kenny Aronoff  17:32 Oh, it was incredible. But he was tribute record. And that was an such an honor. Playing you know, to to blazing. Well, one was the medium tempo song, big swing face, which was title of an album, and the other was straight, no chaser blazing fast. And it was it was a very meaningful experience for me.   Michael Hingson  17:54 You know, and clearly, you respect that and just listening to you. You, you respect that, that whole mentality and you're approaching it with a humility as opposed to just being conceited, which is, which is great, because that really is what makes for a good team person.   Kenny Aronoff  18:15 Yeah, I mean, yeah, I mean, once again, at that point, I understand a student serving, you know, serving the song serving the artist, serving you know, whoever, whatever it is, what can I do to be great?   Michael Hingson  18:28 That's cool. So you know, you, you've done that you say you started playing, so was your first maybe big break in the whole rock world with John Mellencamp, or Yeah, it happened after you turn down the Jerusalem symphony.   Kenny Aronoff  18:45 Well, after a turn on juicing shift and went home, I started practicing eight hours a day, seven days a week at my parents house, I humbly moved back home, and still didn't know how I was going to break into the Rock and Roll scene. And after a year, I after a year, I decided to move to Indiana and start a band with a bunch of guys and somebody and one of their dads invested a lot of money into getting as a band truck lights, PA, and the business model was to write songs, get a record deal, record those songs, and then go on tour. And after three years, we didn't get a record deal. And I was like, Man, I don't know what what I'm going to do. So I decided I was going to move to New York City, which is one of the top three centers of the music business. And I ended up a week before moving to New York City. I have lunch with the singer songwriter, woman Bootsy Allen, who asked me what I was doing. I said you have gone to New York. Are you going to crush it good luck. And they said you know there's a guy in town I don't know if you've heard of him is John Coogan guy. He's on MTV, this new network and he's made records, you know, who is this? Yeah, for whatever. I wasn't a big fan of his music. It was very basic. And at that point, I was born to technique and chops, which is something you know, usually when you're young, you're like, you want to do more as more. But she said, yeah, man, he's they just got off tour, they were opening up for kiss. And he fired his drummer last night. And I was like, what, and I was in my head of going thinking the meaning of a god, that's records touring, MTV, oh, my God, this this is like being in the Beatles. This is what I dreamed about. I went running out of the restaurant, went to a payphone and called up books, there was no cell phones, and I call up my buddy Mike, and in the band and said, Look, I hear you might be looking for a drummer that got audition. He said, Call me back in two weeks, and we're going to try to sort some things out. And eventually, I do get a call, oh, he called me back. And I did audition. And long and short of it is I, I won the audition, because I prepared intensely practicing six, eight hours a day, trying to learn all the drum parts that were on the last record, a winning audition. And five, we say well, now Nellie making the record which I got fired on, as I mentioned,   Michael Hingson  21:20 then what happened after you got fired?   Kenny Aronoff  21:23 Well, that was crucial. That was a life changing moment, when John said, with a producer, I thought it was John, but it was a producer wanted to get this record done. And I had no experience making records. So he wanted to get it done in eight weeks, which is not a very long time to go toward a new band and do overdubs, get vocals and mix and master. So he wanted to bring in his drummers. And when we had a band meeting, and I kind of knew I could tell something wasn't right, my my spidey sense that something's not right. We had a band meeting and John told me I'm not playing on the record. And the words came out of my mouth and life changing. And he said, You go home at the end of the week, I said, No friggin way. Am I going home. And I remember the band looking like Oh, my God. Can't believe K Dick. Because you know, John was pretty tough guy is pretty tough. And so they felt what's gonna happen next. See what happened was happening there. As I was overwhelmed. I felt like a loser. I felt like a piece of crap. I felt like just I was every negative thing sad, you know, depressed, and I was bummed. He was stealing my purpose, my whole deepest desires. My whole reason that I'm alive. He was taking that for me. I just said, There's no way and I told them, I'm not going home. And that'd be like me telling you, you're fired. And you go, No, I'm not. I'm like, Dude, you're fired. And like, No, I'm not. And What don't you understand about the words you're fired? So I just, I mean, I am. I said, Well, due to my studio drummer, what? And he goes, Well, yeah, but you're not playing on the record. And I started scrambling, I said, Well, I'll go in the studio and watch these other drummers play my drum parts on your record, and I'll learn from them and I'll get better. And that's good. Fuchs, I'm your drummer. He was silent, didn't say a word. Shit. We're okay. You don't have to pay me, I'll sleep on the couch. And then he said, perfect. And that's what happened. And that was a life changing moment. Because if I had gone home, who knows what would have happened, maybe you've gotten another drummer. So that was a jaunt. To me in my autobiography, sex, drugs, rock and roll, he was saying, Wow, he really respected me for that, at that moment, he didn't realize I had that, you know, that I cared that much. And I would, you know, stand up to him and demand to be there. And he respected me for that. So how, yeah,   Michael Hingson  24:02 how much of it was ego and how much of it was really following your heart at that moment?   Kenny Aronoff  24:07 It was more about fear. And about following my heart, okay. No, I was like, I see what you mean about ego. I didn't want to go back home and I would have been ashamed to go back home and, and but but the fear of losing this gig and the fear of the unknown and what comes next was making me want to fight for what I had.   Michael Hingson  24:31 Yeah, um, you know, when there are a lot of people who are excellent in their fields, and they think very highly of themselves, which is fine, except that really detracts from the the team orientation which I know you understand full well. And so, it it's great to hear that it was really more following your heart and really you wanting to do the right thing. and having the courage of your convictions?   Kenny Aronoff  25:03 Well, yeah, I mean, I didn't see any other way out. And I've been banging my head trying to make it for four years after turning down the Jerusalem symphony orchestra. And I was 27. And I thought, Man, I don't know any options. So I want to do this, if I'm going to make this happen. And, you know, if I look back at my life, when I'm passionate about something, I make it happen, you know, it's easy to get along with me, I'm a great team player. But there is definitely a point where I will like, draw a line in the sand. And I might be very nice about it. But um, you know, I this is, I will fight for what I want. And it's usually backed by passion, and desire, and when anything is backed by passion, desire, or purpose, or bliss, or whatever you want to call it, you know, you're gonna, you know, you're gonna get what you want, and it's gonna be hard for people to convince you otherwise. And so yeah, that's pretty much, you know, when John was taking away my, my job, I saw no other options, and I'm seeing torn MTV, regular TV, and making records. And being part of a band that I truly believe was gonna make it and I was like, that, there's no way I was going to just lay down, you know?   Michael Hingson  26:29 Are you a person who reacts to things knee jerk reaction, although they may very right, or would you say that somehow you've internalized and when you make a decision, is because you've really thought it through, which doesn't mean that you have to take a long time to do it. But do you? Do you think that you are the kind of person who when you say, I'm going to do this, it's the right thing to do, is because you've really thought it through?   Kenny Aronoff  26:55 Well, it's both I mean, there's a lot of things I do, because I have thought it through. But there's no question that at any given moment, if something comes across my table, and it strikes me from a place of my heart, not my brain, but my heart, and my passion, I will react. And that's when I'll use my brain to maybe observe and ask questions. But many times I've said Yes, before even, you know, get deep into asking questions when something blows me away, and I'm excited. Paul McCartney called me up and said, I want to make a record with you. I mean, it would just be a mad automatic. Yes. You know, it before it find out no, we're gonna make it in Siberia. And there's no heat in the building or something. And I mean, I'm just gonna say Yes, right away, because it's Paul McCartney. And now Yeah, yeah.   Michael Hingson  27:53 Yeah. I mean, that would make sense. But you've also, you've met him, you know, him, you've learned to trust too. So it's not like it is an unintelligent decision to just immediately say, yes.   Kenny Aronoff  28:07 Yeah, I guess with pa Yeah, of course. But I mean, you know, take somebody else, you know, I don't know. Somebody. That I don't really know that well. Sure. You know, and I would if it's the right person, I'm gonna go Yeah, right away.   Michael Hingson  28:23 Yeah, well, yeah, exactly. But still, and the if it's the right person, part of it is very relevant, it still means that you've done some thinking about it. One of the things I love in listening to you tell the stories is like with John Mellencamp, you really said look, I want to learn now, if I'm if I'm your drummer, and there's a problem with this record, and all that, then I want to learn what I need to do. So it will happen again. And the real great part about it is that you say I want to learn, I love people who are always interested in learning and becoming better and don't think so highly of themselves that they don't have anything else to learn.   Kenny Aronoff  29:03 Well, no, that's true. You know, I've I won't mention names, but I remember going up to a very, very famous singer. And I remember saying I could see he was frustrated, trying to explain what he wanted me to do. I got off the drumset when went up to him, I said, Listen to there's nothing I can do. You know, uh, you just have to be very specific about what you want me to do. And I will do it. Because I can do it. And I want to learn I want to be great. I want to and when you're working for an artist, you're in a place of service. So I want to get it I know I can get it. There was just a disconnect for for for the explanation. And that took took a while to work out but the bottom I saw his frustration, but I was trying to let him know dude, I can do anything you want. I'm capable. And I meant.   Michael Hingson  29:55 Again, the operative part is it sounds like you worked it out.   Kenny Aronoff  30:00 Well, I've worked out enough, you know, I've done so many big show. I mean   Michael Hingson  30:03 with with that person, you're able to work it out. Oh, that person? Absolutely. Yep. Yeah, that's my point. And so you do, you do explore. And that is, that's a wonderful trading characteristic that more of us should develop. And we should have confidence in ourselves to know what we're capable of and know what we're capable of learning, and then go forward, which is what I'm hearing from you.   Kenny Aronoff  30:32 Yeah, absolutely.   Michael Hingson  30:35 The first time I did a speech in public after September 11, I got a call from a pastor of a church and he said, I want you to come and tell your story he had then I'd been on Larry King Live two weeks before first time I'd ever been on CNN and Larry King Live, but it was again after September 11. And I was used to being in a in a public setting. So it didn't bother me a lot. But this guy calls up and he says, I want you to come and tell your story. We're going to be doing a service to honor all the people who were lost from New Jersey in the World Trade Center. And I said, Okay, I'm glad to do that. And then I said, just out of curiosity, any idea how large the service will be? How many people will be there? And he said, Well, it's going to be outside probably about 6000. You know, I've never done a speech before. And my immediate reaction was, it didn't bother me. Okay, great. Just wanted to know, and I've done some things in church before, and I've, I've talked in some public settings, but not to do a real speech like that. Yeah. But, you know, I knew that it didn't matter to me if it was 6000 or six, four, for me. There were techniques to learn. And over time, I learned that good speakers don't talk to audiences, they talk with audiences, and they work to engage people and, and when the in their speeches in various ways, and it's so much fun to do that. But 6000 It really just worked out really well. And there were other people there. Lisa beamer was there, her husband was Todd Beamer, the guy on flight 93, who said let's roll and, you know, it's a pretty incredible night and I'll never forget it. But you know, you know what you can do and when you really know your capability, but are willing to share it and grow and learn. What more can somebody ask for?   Kenny Aronoff  32:30 Yeah, I mean, I, my thing about being alive on this planet is to get the most value out of this life. I'm not I hope there's something after this, but whether there is or not, the point is to get the most value out of this life when it's very short. So I'm not wanting to sit, I'm just wired that way. I'm not sitting sitting on a couch, just you know, hanging out on a daily basis. You know, I I've played on 300 million records sold. I've toured with some of the greatest bands in the day, as diverse as you know, the highwomen, which is Johnny Cash, and Kris Kristofferson whether James will Richard to Jerry Lee Lewis to the Smashing Pumpkins and Tony Iommi, from Sabbath to Boston Symphony Orchestra and Ray Charles and BB King to sting to The Beatles and The stones. And I feel fortunate that I get to play with so many different people because you get pigeonholed in my business. You're a rock drummer, you're a country drummer, you're this, you're that drummer. So and that that definitely ties into the ability to be able to connect, communicate and collaborate with people because who they want in the room with them. It's not just the most talented musician, it's somebody they want to hang out with. Mellencamp is to say, look at, I need people I get along with, I'm lonely on stage for two and a half hours. While the rest of the time I got to hang out with you guys. So I want people like get along with you. Right? You know, and I get I totally got that. Because the thing is, is that to get what I like about getting the most value out of life is that I'm wired to grow and learn. And the beauty it's a building, you know, a skyscraper, you know, the top only exists because you built the foundation from the bottom, you work your way up and you get, you have to be strong and you build and I don't believe in mistakes or failures. They're just events that get you to the top. And if the words mistakes and failures, bring in negative energy to your body, so I don't even use those words anymore. Everything's an event. Something that doesn't work out the way you want is a learning experience. It's a gift. And I'm like, basically Tom Brady, you know, you're always trying to get into the endzone. If you get if you fumble, you get sacked or whatever. Whatever life is filled with sacks and dropping the ball. He said where are you trying to go? What you Northstar or my North Star is the end zone. So that happened, what did I learn from it? How are we getting in the end zone? And that's where I look at life.   Michael Hingson  35:08 Yeah. Well, and, you know, to to extend your, your thought, I agree about the whole concept of mistakes and failures for me. And people have said it. And I and I firmly agree with, like Zig Ziglar, and others who say that there's no such thing as a mistake. It's a learning experience. And the question is, do you learn from it? And that's the real issue, do you learn from it, and I, I, where, after September 11, I started speaking to people and traveling the country and still do, and enjoy it immensely. But one of the things that I realized over the last three years with the pandemic is that I've never taught people some of the techniques that I learned along the way and used just because they came along, to not be afraid. On September 11, I had developed a mindset that told me that I can observe, I can focus and I don't need to be afraid. So we're starting to actually we're, we just submitted the first draft of a book about learning to control your fear so that you don't be an individual who when something unexpected happens, you let fear as I put it, blind you, you learn how to use that fear to help heighten your senses and direct you. And one of the things that I talk about is the whole concept of how much do you at night take time just to be introspective and look at the day? And what happened today? What what do I learn from this? How could I have done this? I was successful with this, but how could I have been even better? Or this didn't go? Well? Why? And what can I do about it and really think about it, you know,   Kenny Aronoff  37:01 that's good stuff that's very valuable, that says, that's a good way to learn, because you can learn from yourself. And, and, and sometimes we have to repeat things, many, many, many times to finally get the lesson. But if you do what you just said, and you take inventory and what went on that day, you could possibly learn that lesson way quicker.   Michael Hingson  37:24 And I've changed my language a little bit, I used to say that you are you're always going to be your own worst critic. And I realized that's negative. I'd rather say I'm my best teacher, if I allow myself to do it. And that is so true, isn't it?   Kenny Aronoff  37:39 Absolutely. That anything negative, you should throw out the window and pivot it, flip it to the it's always positive. And there's definitely always another narrative. And the positive narrative is always going to serve you better than the negative   Michael Hingson  37:55 always will. There's no great value in being negative and putting yourself down. You can be frustrated by something that didn't go the way you thought, Well, why didn't it? It may very well be that there's a legitimate reason why it didn't work out. But if you figure that out, and you allow yourself to teach you about it, you want to make you won't make the same scenario happen again. You will be successful the next time.   Kenny Aronoff  38:22 Yeah, absolutely. Yep. I totally agree with you on that.   Michael Hingson  38:26 So have you done anything in the music world dealing with rap?   Kenny Aronoff  38:34 I've never been on a rap record. But when you know, I remember being in the Mellencamp band. And that was a long time ago, I left in 96. I remember I was listening to some Snoop Dogg and I was grabbing ideas from those records and bringing it to melachim. That's what we were always encouraged to do. Back then they were budgets long we could make spend nine months making a record. And you could do a whole record sort of way and start from scratch. But I was getting ideas with ideas, loop ideas. I remember making sleigh bells on a song. Super I played sleigh bells on a whole bunch bunch of songs on early records in the 90s. And I copy that and John loved it. It's a different thing. And so yeah, in that regard, I did learn a lot from the rap music.   Michael Hingson  39:22 I've I don't know my my view of rap has always been I think it's a great art form. I'm not sure that I view it in the same musical way that that some people do because it's not so melodic, as it is certainly a lot of poetry and they kind of put poetry and words to to music in the background. But I also believe it's an incredible art form listening to some of the people who do rap. They're clearly incredibly intelligent and they're, they're pouring their hearts out about what they've experienced and what they see sometimes in ways that you don't even hear on regular mute. Music?   Kenny Aronoff  40:01 Oh, yeah. I mean, there's no question that it's, it's a, it's a form of music. It's a reflection of, you know, we're societies that you know, I mean, the arts will always reflect where people are at, and is a huge audience of there's a lot of people that can relate to this whole style of, of music or what rap is. It's a lyrics are very powerful in that they it's mostly centered around a beat and lyrics. And yet a lot of attention is drawn to that, as opposed to just take a band where they have, you know, two guitar players playing melodic lines and the keyboard player melodic line. And there's none of that really going on not not to the extent of of that in rap music. And although some people have added Dr. Dre at a lot of stuff, to the people he's worked with, like Eminem, but still, it's more centered around the voice the person.   Michael Hingson  41:04 And message and the message.   Kenny Aronoff  41:06 Oh, absolutely. The message. But you know, the thing is, is it's you, I guess it's up to everybody decide. You can call it whatever you want. And then it doesn't matter. If somebody's digging it. They did. They don't they don't is that?   Michael Hingson  41:23 Well, it is absolutely an art form. And it's an art form that should be as respected as any. In certainly it is to pardon the pun struck a chord with a lot of people and that's fine. And it's in it's great that there's so much of it going on. So what kind of tours have you been on lately? What kind of music have you done or what's coming up?   Kenny Aronoff  41:46 But I just finished the Joe Satriani tour. He was one of the greatest guitar players on the planet. Because it was just an evening with Joe Satriani. It's a very tech the music is very technical. It was, it was great for me because I was, you know, my, my technique excelled tremendously to play those types of songs. I'm going to Europe with him. See, April, May and how to June for nine weeks doing a thing called G four, which is a camp that he does in Vegas, which will feature the guitar players Eric Carroll, Steve Luthor, Steve Morse, C, Peter Frampton, and a bunch of other people. Basically, when I finished the Joe Satriani tour, I had 85 songs waiting for me to learn. Some of which I recorded my studio, I have a studio called uncommon studios. I tried to push back all the records I was going to make while I was on tour to when I got off tour. I did that and then I just finished doing a show maybe three nights ago with Jim Mercer and the owner of the Indianapolis Colts, who's showing his museum is so American collect collectibles as he calls it, a collection snatches musical instruments but it could be like, you know, American cultural type stuff like Abraham Lincoln's handwritten letters, you know, eases Wharton's writings, Muhammad Ali's gloves and belt from the thriller from Manila fight. I mean, it just goes on and on. And so I did a concert with him, but that featured like Kenny, Wayne Shepherd and Wilson from heart, John Fogarty, Buddy Guy, and Stephen Stills, and that was 30 songs. I had to learn and perfect. I write everything out. I know every tempo, I know all the song structure. So my goal is not just a drummer, but it's also to kind of keep everybody in it straight. And in line. We only have 112 hour rehearsal night before and the next day. It's, it's the show, so it's massive preparation. And next week, I'm going to do Billy Gibbons. So this week, on Thursday, I'm gonna do Billy Gibbons, a birthday party at The Troubadour and Swidler no songs, I'm finishing I'm starting to edit my second book. It's a self help book. It's about you know, living your life loud and how important time is in the short life we live. That goes into my speaking world. I have an agent and I do inspirational speaking, I'm mostly corporations. And so that book is kind of like, as a lot of the stuff that's in that speech, but a lot more with a lot of action items and takeaways. I'm just, I just put out a drum book. During the pandemic, a transition to my studio where people send me files, I make records for them, or I play drums on the records. I turned it into a place where new virtual speaking and now I may be launching a very a podcast with I have a whole team that will be you know produced to a director and everything, and I can do that from my studio, I have a wine that just came out. Uncommon wines just won an award. It's a cab serraj. Limited Edition. But yeah, I got a lot going on.   Michael Hingson  45:15 Well, and that keeps you busy. And it's obviously something that sounds like a lot of fun for you.   Kenny Aronoff  45:21 Absolutely. That this point, it's like, if it's not fun, I ain't doing it.   Michael Hingson  45:25 Yeah. Yeah, if you can't have fun, then what good is the world anyway?   Kenny Aronoff  45:32 It's up to you, man. It's up to you. You know, this, you know? We everybody has? Well, most people have options. So, you know, some people, you know, maybe less than others. But, you know, I just said, it's all in your mind. It's a mindset, you know, you can make things better, or more difficult. It is up to you.   Michael Hingson  45:58 And I think you really hit the nail on the head, if you will. Everyone does have options. And a lot of times we have more options. And we think we do we undersell ourselves, we underestimate ourselves, which is why I love doing unstoppable mindset. Because my goal is to help people recognize that, in reality, they probably are a whole lot more unstoppable than they think they are.   Kenny Aronoff  46:20 Yeah, well, exactly. But only you can figure out your power. It's up to the individual. And this is not a mental thing. This is an emotional thing. You have to feel your power. And and I think that's like a thing I call RPS repetition is the preparation for success. And that could be anything, anything you do over and over again, you get better at because you're doing it over and over again. And sometimes it takes longer to get somewhere with one thing then other things, but it's you can't just set it and forget it. You can't just like be successful one day and think that's it for life. No. I used to practice on the Joe Satriani tour, a song called Satch Boogie twice a day. And people go, why may you play that greatest said, because I played every day. And preparing every day? Yeah, playing it at night. That's why it sounds so good at night. And when I don't, then I usually learn a lesson that I need to do that I'm talking about the more technical things, you know.   Michael Hingson  47:24 Sure. Well, and that brings up the question of like, you're preparing to do the event at The Troubadour and so on, how do you prepare? What is it you do to learn the songs? How does all that work?   Kenny Aronoff  47:36 I've read every single note out that I'm going to play. Check out the church right here. For the viewers, I can hold up one sheet of music, very detailed. I write every single note out I got the tempo, and know exactly what to do, then I just drill it. I run through it. I practice the songs. When we're done. I'm going to practice that whole show tonight. Tomorrow, I'll practice it twice. And then Thursday, I'll practice it and then do the show.   Michael Hingson  48:05 Do you record your practice sessions? So you can listen to them? Or do you   Kenny Aronoff  48:10 know that that would be a real? That's a good thing to do? No, I don't. And it's no. That's a good, that's a great way to learn. But it's also time consuming?   Michael Hingson  48:24 Well, it well, it is a but you then get to hear it in a sense from the perspective of listeners.   Kenny Aronoff  48:32 So I do but I will I'm playing I'm listening to Yeah,   Michael Hingson  48:36 I understand. Yeah. And that's why for you, it may or may not be the best thing to do. I know for me, when I do a podcast interview, I will go back and listen to it again. And I do that because I want to see how I can improve it and see easiest way for me to do it. I listened to myself when I'm talking. And I listened to the person who I'm talking with. And I do my best to interpret their reactions and so on. But still, for something like this, I get to learn a lot by going back and listening to it. And as I as I tell everyone I talked with about this, if I'm not learning and it's the same thing with speaking if I'm not learning at least as much as my audience or my guest. I'm not doing my job. Well. Yeah.   Kenny Aronoff  49:27 Well, you don't I mean, there's no question listening to what you do is great. Great way to learn. I'm using is moving so fast and doing so much that just Yeah, I don't have time. But that's no question. I think that's a great way to learn. You know, and when I see myself I feel myself speaking. Oh my god, that's so humbling, right? Yeah. Oh my god. And   Michael Hingson  49:51 it's such a when you're speaking and you're doing an auditory thing like that it probably is best to go back and listen to it. I remember when I was are at the UC Irvine radio station que UCI and was program director. I worked to get people to listen to themselves. And they they would record their shows. So we actually put a tape recorder in a locked cabinet, a cassette machine, and we wired it. So whenever the mic was live, the voice was recorded. And then we would give people cassettes and we would say that you got to listen to it before the next show. Yeah, it was really amazing how much better people were. At the end of the year, some people ended up going into radio because they were well enough. They were good enough that they could be hired and went on to other things. Yeah, and it was just all about, they really started listening to themselves and they realized what other people were hearing. Yeah, no, that's,   Kenny Aronoff  50:51 that's, that's a great, I think that's brilliant. You know,   Michael Hingson  50:56 it's a it's always a challenge. So, so for you. What was the scariest or the, the weirdest show that you ever did or performance you ever did?   Kenny Aronoff  51:10 Well, probably the most one of the more scary moments in my life was when I was 20. Barely 23 And maybe I was still 22 I for my senior recital at Indiana University. You know, I was a performance major. I got you the way we learned how to play melodies and have that type of education because we play violin music or cello music on marimbas. Well, for my seniors I pick the virtuoso Violin Concerto that Itzhak Perlman played as his encore, in his concert I saw when I was a freshman, and so beautiful, but highly technical. And I spent one year, two or three hours a day, learning that one piece one of four pieces on my senior recital. And it was I learned it so well, that my professor won me to audition for concerto competition, and I won, which meant that I performed that piece with the 60 piece orchestra in an opera Hall bigger than the New York met, which is an Indiana University. Now granted, this is the number one school music in the country for classical music. So this is there's no handholding. There's no coddling, there's no trophies. This is like being I want to almost say like being a Navy Seal, especially with my teacher. But that guy helped make me and I was the right student for him become who I am. And the discipline that I learned from was extraordinary. But anyway, I've never, you know, usually when you're a percussionist, you're in the back the orchestra. So this was the hear the rolling the marimba out in front of the this big concert hall. And I'm in the wings, you know, with a tuxedo and I walk out like the solo violinists. And I was crapping my pants in the whole thing was memorized. And oh, man, I was terrified, but I crushed it.   Michael Hingson  53:14 Well, you took control of your fear.   Kenny Aronoff  53:18 I do well, I tend to I tend to take fear and use it as as a not a weapon, but I use it. It'll alternative the power, it is power. But on the other hand, we do have the ability to sabotage ourselves. And that's something is a child would do. Because you have self doubt you're small. everybody around you is big. You've got parents, teachers, coaches, whoever telling you, Kenny, that's wrong, bad, bad, bad. And as a little guy, you know, you're trying to please everybody. Then maybe my teachers saying to me, sometimes when I make a mistake, he'd look at me go, Kenny, are you afraid of success? And I'm like, What is he talking about? But realize that when you're younger, you start to think you're gonna make I'm gonna mess this up. Oh, here it comes. And you do and you do. But now that I'm older, I realize from this, this I hate that so much that I want to be successful so much. I overpower any of those feelings. I'm like, it's more like I got this and I'm gonna get it. And I meet believe it. But I can't tell anybody listening. There's a quick remedy for that. You don't take a pill and all sudden you become that? That's a long talk because I used to think how long am I going to end up being like this why sabotaging myself where your fear takes over. Now, I use my fear as my strength. I don't even know if I want to call it fear. Somebody says you get nervous when you do Kennedy Center Honors or any of these shows. At this point. Hell no. I don't get fearful As I get serious, I'm like in the Superbowl, and I know I can win. But I also know that things will not necessarily go the way you want. Because you're not the only one on that stage. Right? People, it's my job at any moment to be able to adapt, or die. You adapt immediately. You fix it, or you die, and I'm not about dying.   Michael Hingson  55:25 Have you ever had any experiences when you were on stage? And in a sense, you blew it? But then you recovered or anything?   Kenny Aronoff  55:34 Oh, yeah. Okay. Well, what you want to call blow it blowing, to me would be just one note in the wrong places. To me. It's nothing I don't like but the huge. The place I'm in now is I know very, very, very. I know how important is to forget about that. And to stay focused and stay in the game. It's like Tom Brady getting sacked. And his two minute drill to win the game. He gets sacked. He's got to be you can be pissed off for a second but he's immediately focuses on endzone, touchdown, endzone touchdown. One thing I learned from that experience, we aren't run in place that direction, the more we're doing this, you take it and you flip it, it becomes your power. So when something goes wrong, there's a part of me Of course, it's like really pissed off. But I also understand deeply in my gut, that you've got to blow that off and focus on how you're going to be a bad mofo. And I don't talk about my mistakes. A No, I don't have mistakes, I don't talk about the things that don't work out. Because you don't want to talk about them, you're giving it too much power, you just move past it. If somebody brings it up to you, you then can have a discussion. But unless somebody brings it up to you, you just move on, you don't think about it, and you don't dwell on it, because that will weaken you   Michael Hingson  57:00 every time. Absolutely every time. And you know, it's as we said, it isn't No, it isn't a mistake, you you did something, you played a wrong note, but you really spend so much time practicing, you do get it to be and I don't use this as a way to negate it, it becomes very rote. By the time you're playing in the actual performance, you have really worked to make sure that you truly understand what the event is, what the music is that you're supposed to be playing. And you're used to it. I would also wager that no matter how much you practice, when you get up on stage, now you're in a dynamic where you have the whole orchestra or the band or whatever. I wouldn't be surprised if there are times that you adapt on the fly as well.   Kenny Aronoff  57:54 Absolutely you do. I mean thing is, like this concert I just did with all these great artists, they were, you know, people, I have everything written out. But people would drop in courses are dropping parts. And I adapt and I direct, I help people, you know, or if I if I, if there's something I space out or something, I'm very quick at self correcting. And, you know, making it work out.   Michael Hingson  58:22 That's what it should be.   Kenny Aronoff  58:24 That's what exactly that's what it should be. Yeah. And and you, you you will let yourself down, if you get sucked into this bloody ego in, in getting drawn into Oh, woe is me and failure and all that. You got to push that aside, you got to be centered, like, like a Navy Seal or a warrior king, you know, or warrior queen, where you people are looking to lead and looking to you for strength and wisdom. And I want to be that person, I am that person.   Michael Hingson  59:03 And at the same time you also know when you're leading, if you're a good leader, you know when to let somebody else take the lead because they have a skill that works in that particular moment.   Kenny Aronoff  59:15 Absolutely. I call it lead them to lead. Hmm. Help them lead assist them to lead without saying anything. You do this your job to help them feel like they can lead.   Michael Hingson  59:30 So how did you get involved now in starting to do public speaking kinds of things and travel around and do some of that?   Kenny Aronoff  59:38 Well, I wrote an autobiography called Sex, Drugs, rock and roll and people were asking me to speak a little bit. I had done about 30 years of drunk, drunk clinics masterclasses where I would speak it was a show so but to speak. Like we're talking about I had to really work develop a craft it wasn't you know, I I worked to some writers, I built websites and got rid of them got different ones, I went and spoke to an agent and he told me what it really means to be a speaker what you need to do, I did what he told me doing, came back to him two years later, and showed him what I had done. And he was blown away. He said, I want to work with you. So he started, we started working together, and he started telling mentoring me and I started to put together a show. So filmed, you know, and I kept developing it and honing it down. And, and now you know, I've got, you know, teamwork, leadership, innovation, creativity, connecting communication, collaboration, realize your purpose, staying relevant speech. And it's I do perform. During the speech, I have a set of drums there, that's the entertainment part. People want to see me perform, because I'm a drama. But the the message is very powerful. And it's it. It's not just, I mean, I've done this, my success in the music business is a proof of, you know, how to go from this little kid from a town of 3000 to 40 years. Well, not 40 years later, it's a lot years later. And after that, at this point, it's 60 years later, how I became what I had, how they became successful, successful, and they've stayed successful. And a lot of those skill sets. And what I learned in the music business applies to these other businesses I do, which also applies to other people's businesses. So I speak about that. And just to answer your question a little bit more specifically, I just, I put together a show I have an agent, and we've been building off of that. And I just am doing more and more of that.   Michael Hingson  1:01:48 Tell me about your book a little bit.   Kenny Aronoff  1:01:50 Well, sex One immediate the autobiography, the one one,   Michael Hingson  1:01:53 now the firt. Right now, the autobiography The first one.   Kenny Aronoff  1:01:57 Yeah, that's basically my life story. It's about how I came from that middle town of Western Mass Stockbridge and how I went to, you know, how I went from there to where I am now, basically, in a nutshell, and there's all kinds of stories, you know, Smashing Pumpkins, Bob Seger, John Mellencamp Bon Jovi, The Rolling Stones, meeting Bill Clinton, you know, there's a little bit of funny stuff, there's little bit of drama, is a little bit of rock and roll wildness. But the bottom line is the big message that the thread through the whole book is, I've worked my ass off and still working my ass off.   Michael Hingson  1:02:36 And I hear you stay in great shape. I must be from all those beating of the drums.   Kenny Aronoff  1:02:41 It is. But it's also I in my new book, I have the healthy life as a wealthy life, which is a basic eight step program on how to stay healthy, which affects you mentally, physically, emotionally, spiritually, you know, I won't go through all the details of it. But it's, it's definitely a setup. And you know, I'm aware of what I'm eating. And you know, I'm not perfect, but I'm aware of everything I put on me. So in other words, if I have a day one, eating not as well, as I, as I usually choose to, then I know how to make up for it the next day, and I do exercise every day. And of course, playing the drums. I mean, you're doing a three hour show. You're burning 1000s calories. Yeah. So there's that, you know,   Michael Hingson  1:03:24 which is, which is really pretty cool. And so you're, you're in a profession that keeps you active anyway, which is which is good. You cannot it's hard to tough to, to argue with that, isn't it?   Kenny Aronoff  1:03:38 Yeah. It's great. It's phenomenal. I love that unit.   Michael Hingson  1:03:42 Did you self published the first book? Or did you have a publisher,   Kenny Aronoff  1:03:45 I have a publisher for that was a hell, Leonard backbeats, which is now there now is Rowan and Littlefield did an audio version, this new book I have is is going to be self published. I am working in writing it for the second time. And it will be they have a marketing team. And but I own the book. And I may possibly look for a publisher after that. But this new book is more self help book. It's basically as I think I mentioned earlier, it's taking what I'm seeing in my speech, but with a lot more information, extending you know that information. So people can you know, if they want to hear more about what my my philosop

Few people knew John Lennon as intimately as May Pang. Pang was Lennon's lover during the infamous “Lost Weekend” which lasted 18 months during late 1973 through 1975.  In this exclusive interview, we learn about their relationship and the kind of person John Lennon really was. During this highly creative time for Lennon, Pang took candid photos of Lennon in a comfortable, relaxed environment. A collection of these private photographs will be on display in various cities, including at City Winery in NYC this Sat April 8 and Sun April 9. The exhibition entitled, “The Lost Weekend – The Photography of May Pang” coincides with the feature film documentary “The Lost Weekend : A Love Story” that premieres in theaters beginning April 13th. Admission to the exhibit is free to the public and all works are available to purchase. Advance tickets to the film premiere screening are on sale now at: https://www.thelostweekendtickets.com/?campaign=IconicYT. Watch the trailer here: https://youtu.be/6v07NzukoZU. May Pang will be in attendance at City Winery NYC and signing copies of her fine art photographs for customers. On Sunday, the fabulous Beatles band “Strawberry Fields” will be performing their weekly Ultimate Beatles Brunch concert at noon (admission required, tickets available at https://citywinery.com/NewYork/Online/Article/new-york-strawberry-fields-lp-2023.) Billed as “a weekend that lasted 18 months and a love story that took 50 years to tell”, THE LOST WEEKEND: A LOVE STORY (from Iconic Releasing) explores the 18-month relationship (1973-1975) that John Lennon spent with May Pang, his Chinese American assistant turned lover (on Yoko Ono's insistence and which she came to regret). With May's help, he had his most artistically and commercially productive period post-Beatles—with the albums "Mind Games", "Walls and Bridges", which included his only #1 Hit Single "Whatever Gets You Through the Night", "Rock and Roll" and collaboration with Rock legends Elton John, David Bowie, Harry Nilsson, Mick Jagger, and Ringo among others. Also, on that album Pang can be heard on the song “#9 Dream” where she whispers John's name in the song. Another song on the album “Surprise, Surprise (Sweet Bird of Paradox)” was written about Pang. Pang chronicles it all revisiting her younger self, as a naïve 22-year-old experiencing her first unforgettable love. Pang also encouraged Lennon to reconnect with his family and his friends, which ultimately led to a reunion with Paul McCartney and a memorable jam session between the two Beatles. Pang also arranged for Julian Lennon to visit his father for the first time in almost three years. One of Pang's photographs of Julian Lennon graces the cover of Julian's latest album entitled “Jude.”  Lennon also went into the studio with friend Harry Nilsson during this time and produced his album “Pussy Cats.” It was during this time that Pang rented a house in Santa Monica and moved in with Lennon and fellow partiers Ringo Starr, Keith Moon (The Who) and Harry Nilsson. Several photos from this time also appear in the exhibition.  “The Lost Weekend – The Photography of May Pang” exhibition will provide fans a rare opportunity to see John Lennon in a new light, through the lens of someone who knew him intimately during one of the most creative periods of his life. Pang's photos will be on display and available to purchase for two days only. Check out the show and meet May Pang at City Winery NYC, 25 11th Avenue (at 15th Street), New York, NY for two days only, Saturday, April 8 and Sunday, April 9, 2023.

In the second half of our episode, we look at The Secret in Their Eyes, a 2009 crime-drama that comes from director Juan José Campanella, which is far superior to the 2015 American remake. It's about a mystery that takes many years to solve, and features an ending that will literally have you gasping out loud, maybe all the way through the credits. COMING ATTRACTIONS: From South America we go to Europe, for a look at a couple of movies where peoples' minds and personalities are somehow morphed into something else. First up is Ingmar Bergman's Persona, from 1966, and then we go to 1970 and a film called Performance, directed by Donald Cammell and Nicolas Roeg, and featuring Mick Jagger and James Fox. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wordsandmovies/support

May Pang joins My Rock Moment for a candid interview ahead of the premiere of her documentary, THE LOST WEEKEND: A LOVE STORY, in theaters April 13th. THE LOST WEEKEND: A LOVE STORY, is May Pang's story, which is aptly described as “a weekend that lasted 18 months and a love story that took 50 years to tell.” During their relationship, Lennon reunited with his son Julian and enjoyed his most artistically and commercially productive period post-Beatles—with the albums "Mind Games”, "Walls and Bridges" which included his only #1 Hit Single "Whatever Gets You Through the Night", "Rock and Roll”, and collaboration with Rock legends Elton John, David Bowie, Harry Nilsson, Mick Jagger, and Ringo, among others. Pang chronicles it all revisiting her younger self, as a naïve 22-year-old experiencing her first unforgettable love. In this episode, May discusses the making of the film and recounts her time as a young woman trying to navigate the trappings of fame, rockstars behaving badly and the marriage that Lennon left behind.

Drugs as Weapons Against Us: The CIA's Murderous Targeting of SDS, Panthers, Hendrix, Lennon, Cobain, Tupac, and Other LeftistsDrugs as Weapons Against Us meticulously details how a group of opium-trafficking families came to form an American oligarchy and eventually achieved global dominance. This oligarchy helped fund the Nazi regime and then saved thousands of Nazis to work with the Central Intelligence Agency. CIA operations such as MK-Ultra pushed LSD and other drugs on leftist leaders and left-leaning populations at home and abroad. Evidence supports that this oligarchy further led the United States into its longest-running wars in the ideal areas for opium crops, while also massively funding wars in areas of coca plant abundance for cocaine production under the guise of a “war on drugs” that is actually the use of drugs as a war on us. Drugs as Weapons Against Us tells how scores of undercover U.S. Intelligence agents used drugs in the targeting of leftist leaders from SDS to the Black Panthers, Young Lords, Latin Kings, and the Occupy Movement. It also tells how they particularly targeted leftist musicians, including John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Kurt Cobain, and Tupac Shakur to promote drugs while later murdering them when they started sobering up and taking on more leftist activism. The book further uncovers the evidence that Intelligence agents dosed Paul Robeson with LSD, gave Mick Jagger his first hit of acid, hooked Janis Joplin on amphetamines, as well as manipulating Elvis Presley, Eminem, the Wu Tang Clan, and others.7 years ago #against, #cia's, #cia's murderous targeting, #cobain, #drugs, #ed, #hendrix, #john potash : drugs as weapons, #lennon, #murderous, #opperman, #other leftists, #panthers, #report, #sds, #targeting, #tupac, #weapons

Barry and Abigail discuss The Masked Marauders by The Masked Marauders and sample Blueberry Moscato and Sunshine State Berry Sangria from Island Grove Wine Company in Hawthorne, Florida. Visit Anosmia Awareness for more information on Barry's condition. Abigail first learned of this “prank” album from the Ridiculous Crime episode The Battlin' Fleetwood Macs. The Masked Marauders band was made up of members from the Cleanliness and Godliness Skiffle Band. Chicken on a Unicycle has an amazing illustration of the genealogy and history of these two bands. Read the original fake review of The Masked Marauders that appeared in Rolling Stone on October 18, 1969! Abigail shared that she recently watched Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, which has a similar backstory to that of The Masked Marauders. The Wikipedia entry for the movie and the original Funny or Die trailer that inspired the movie are both worth a look. You can watch the film for free on The Roku Channel! I Can't Get No Nookie, featuring a Mick Jagger impersonator, frequently gets mislabeled as an outtake from The Rolling Stones' Jamming with Edward sessions. The version of I Am the Japanese Sandman (Rang Tang Ding Dong) that appears on The Masked Marauders is a cover of The Cellos' Rang Tang Ding Dong (I Am the Japanese Sandman) (and includes the same racist music and lyrics). In trying to locate the origins of the song, we also played Paul Whiteman's The Japanese Sandman (instrumental) and Nora Bayes' The Japanese Sandman (with lyrics). Listen to The Truncated Marauders, our “resequencing” of this album. Up next… Crash Kings by Crash Kings Theme song, jingles, and dramatic reading by our friend Pete Coe.

Being here for the aesthetic isn't necessarily a bad thing - and that's proven by the Disney sci-fi action/adventure film Tron: Legacy. While maybe the screenplay and performances aren't all the way there, there's a killer soundtrack by Daft Punk and some (mostly) well-aged CGI effects. This directorial debut by filmmaker Joseph Kosinski has the tough task of soft-rebooting a a cult franchise that initially was a commercial failure - and through some David Fincher-esque camera work and (somewhat) interesting thematic elements, it succeeds some of the time. This film stars Jeff Bridges, Olivia Wilde, Garrett Hedlund, Michael Sheen, and Bruce Boxleitner. We also give some of our thoughts on the original Tron (1982) and drawcomparisons between the two films. We also go off track of the conversation by talking about raspberry pie technology, how Journey and Mick Jagger supposedly created the worst music video of all time, and our anticipation for Christopher Nolan's upcoming film Oppenheimer.
