On this week's episode of The Business of Watches, a frank discussion with one of the most powerful women in the world of horology. Hind Seddiqi is the Chief Executive Officer of Dubai Watch Week, an event that's grown and matured to become one of the few truly top-tier events on the watch sector calendar. As CEO of the biennial gathering, Seddiqi oversees the team that decides which brands get to exhibit their wares, which executives and collectors get to speak on the industry panels, and exactly how the massive show is staged, presented, and organized. This year's Dubai Watch Week was the most successful edition yet and marked a new era of international profile for an idea launched a decade ago by the United Arab Emirates retailer Ahmed Seddiqi as a way to showcase watchmaking and inform locals about the industry. Housed in a new, larger, and purpose-built venue near the Burj Khalifa, Dubai Watch Week 2025 welcomed a record 49,000 visitors this year, a 113% increase from the previous edition. The event, marking the 75th anniversary of the Seddiqi family retail empire, saw a wave of collector groups fly in from around the world to attend a show that offers up close and personal access to many of the biggest names in watchmaking, from Max Büsser to Roger Smith, to Rexhep Rexhepi, and the CEO of A. Lange & Söhne, Wilhelm Schmid. Hind Seddiqi says one of her biggest challenges now is preserving the casual, spontaneous, and intimate feel of Dubai Watch Week as demand for a place at the table continues to rise. She talks about Dubai, its torrid growth (and punishing traffic) and the city's increasingly important role in the international economy and how she plans to manage the demands and expectations of a massively popular event. Want to subscribe so you never miss an episode?

We are back where we started, in more ways than one, with songwriter, artist, producer, and musician's musician – Charlie Peacock. In this comprehensive conversation, recorded in person at Charlie's home studio in Nashville, JJT and CP revisit his earliest days as a young musician in California. The release of his recent memoir, Roots and Rhythm, and an EP worth of previously unheard recordings from 1981 called The Kahne Sessions, frames this story of formation and transformation. We then follow the man as he becomes one of the most successful producers in the history of pop music. A special 30-minute Jukebox feature traces the evidence – from his earliest production work with The Choir and The 77s, to a Top 40 pop breakthrough, his discovery and launch of one of the great 90s alternative rock bands, and multiple Grammy Awards in the 2000s in the Americana and Folk space.   This may be our longest show yet (and it features over 60 musical cuts), but when considering the work of someone like Chuck, it seems more than fitting. His voice, both literally and as experienced through his piano, pen, and studio control board, has done as much to shape our concepts and imagination about the redemptive potential of art in a broken yet beautiful world as just about any other artist. So, sit back, relax, and let the words and the music wash over you as we give thanks for the gift that is Charlie Peacock.   If you want to support the show, please join our Patreon community or drop us a one-time tip and check out our MERCH!   For full show notes, (including a list of all of the songs used on this show,) photos, and more, visit TrueTunes.com/CP25 (coming soon)   Music List: Set 1 Watching Eternity Winsome Kelly Blues One Man Gets Around Charlie Peacock-Ashworth - Redbones In The Shadows John McLaughlin - Extrapolation Jeff Beck Group ft.

In this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with one of my musical heroes, David Garibaldi. We talk about what he's been up to since stepping away from Tower of Power, playing with Roger Smith's group, staying active with new projects, and continuing to practice every day. David describes the drums as an endless landscape, and hearing him talk about still learning and exploring after all these years is truly inspiring.David reflects on how imagination and curiosity remain at the center of great playing, even in a world overflowing with online content. The core never changes: you still have to follow what lights you up, spend time alone working through the “suck zone,” and develop your own voice.One of the most meaningful parts of our conversation is David's look back at his legendary partnership with Rocco Prestia. He talks about their immediate chemistry, their deep listening, and the intuitive way Rocco responded to the drum articulation and phrasing. His stories about Rocco's unorthodox technique and unmistakable feel are as insightful as they are moving.We also dive into the culture of Tower of Power, the constant rehearsing, the tight arrangements, the expectation that everyone listens, contributes, and functions as a team. David explains how “Tower 101” shaped new members musically and personally, and why the band sounded the way it did.David shares memories of his time in the Air Force Band, how concert percussion study helped shape his ear, and how returning to the Bay Area after his enlistment led him directly into the musical world that would define his career. He also talks about his current work as a teacher and his upcoming “living book” project with Hudson Music, which he'll continue adding to over time.This conversation was an absolute honor for me. David has influenced generations of drummers, myself included, and getting to hear his perspective firsthand was something I won't forget. I hope you enjoy our conversation as much as I did.Music from the Episode:What is Hip?
