Number one Funkateer Bootsy Collins takes us to Funk University! From his days in James Brown's group, to his work with Parliament/Funkadelic and Booty's Rubber Band, to his recent single that raises awareness about domestic violence, "the world's only rhinestone rock-star doll" tears the roof off the sucker and breaks it all down for us. Songcraft wants the funk!  PART ONE:Paul and Scott discuss particularly recognizable bassists and chat about their expectations of what they thought Bootsy would be like before he landed the mother ship on Songcraft. PART TWO:Our in-depth conversation with the legendary Bootsy CollinsABOUT BOOTSY COLLINS:Named among the top 5 bassists of all time by Rolling Stone magazine, Bootsy Collins is one of funk and R&B's most iconic musicians, singers, frontmen, producers, and characters. He started out playing sessions for King Records in his hometown of Cincinnati, Ohio, then kickstarted his career with James Brown's backup band, The J.B.'s. He was credited as a songwriter on classic J.B.'s songs such as “The Grunt” and “These Are the J.B.'s.” In 1972, he joined George Clinton's Parliament-Funkadelic, and is a co-writer of classics such as “Up for the Down Stroke,” “Chocolate City,” “P-Funk (Wants to Get Funked Up),” “Give Up the Funk (Tear the Roof Off the Sucker),” “Mothership Connection,” “Dr. Funkenstein,” and “Flash Light.” In 1976, Bootsy's Rubber Band captivated audiences with his flashy star-shaped glasses and bass, and hits such as “I'd Rather Be With You” and the chart-topping “Bootzilla.” Since then, Bootsy has launched Bootzilla Productions and Funk University to help mentor younger creatives to reach their full potential. His inescapable influence on pop culture can be heard in the music of Snoop Dogg, Outkast, Dr. Dre, Flea of Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rick James, Prince, Daft Punk, Primus, Thundercat, and in Childish Gambino's Grammy-winning platinum hit “Redbone,” which paid homage to “I'd Rather Be With You.” Bootsy is a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and the National Rhythm & Blues Hall of Fame. His latest album is called Album of the Year #1 Funkateer.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Nach einer etwas längeren Zwangspause kommen die Jungs endlich mit einer brachialen Folge 43 zurück. Chris war nämlich auf UK Tour und hat unglaublich viel zu berichten. Was für ein Weltenbummler. Da wirkt Swiss mit seiner Dänemark Reise schon fast provinziell. Ob die Geschichte mit den 5 Däninnen in der Sauna auch wirklich wahr ist? Naja, egal. Am Ende widmet man sich der Frage, warum es im Punk und Metal nur so wenige weibliche Bands gibt und warum Songwriter doch auch eine eigene Identität besitzen können! Schaltet ein und holt euch Karten für unseren Live Podcast am 20. Dezember in der Großen Freiheit 36!

Seit vielen Jahren bewegt sich der Mann, der in Sachsen Anhalt geboren und aufgewachsen ist, sich souverän zwischen den Welten von Theater, Film und seiner Arbeit als Sänger und Songwriter.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2021 conversation with Richard Marx. ABOUT RICHARD MARX:Grammy-winning performer Richard Marx has sold more than 30 million albums as an artist, but if you only know him from late 1980s ballads such as “Hold on to the Nights” and “Right Here Waiting,” you only know part of the story. A prolific songwriter, Marx has landed fourteen songs at the top of various Billboard charts, and has written a #1 single in each of the last four decades. His genre-crossing songwriting success includes “What About Me” and “Crazy,” which Kenny Rogers carried to the top of the Adult Contemporary and Country charts, respectively; “Edge of a Broken Heart,” a hit for the female metal band Vixen; “This I Promise You,” a Top 5 pop single for NSYNC that stayed at #1 on the Adult Contemporary Chart for 13 weeks; Josh Groban's debut single “To Where You Are,” which also reached #1; and “Dance With My Father,” which Richard wrote with the song's performer, Luther Vandross, and which earned the pair the prestigious Grammy Song of the Year award in 2004. Additionally, Richard has scored three major hits with Keith Urban: the Top 5 “Everybody,” and the #1 singles “Better Life” and “Long Hot Summer.”  Despite all his songwriting success, however, Marx is best known as a singer and performer who today jokes about his 80s hairstyle and of-the-era drum sounds. But the songs are undeniable, all of which Marx wrote and produced himself. His debut self-titled album yielded four Top 5 singles: “Don't Mean Nothing,” “Should've Known Better,” “Endless Summer Nights,” and “Hold on to the Nights.” His follow-up, 1989's Repeat Offender, was even more successful, going quadruple-platinum and earning two number one Billboard pop singles, “Satisfied” and “Right Here Waiting,” in addition to the Top 5 “Angelina.” More hits followed, including “Keep Coming Back,” “Hazard,” “Take This Heart,” “Now and Forever,” and “Until I Find You Again.” In addition, Richard's songs have been integral to a number of successful film soundtracks. He earned a Grammy nomination for his contributions to St. Elmo's Fire; scored a Top 10 pop hit with “Surrender to Me,” which Ann Wilson of Heart and Robin Zander of Cheap Trick recorded for the movie Tequila Sunrise, and wrote “At the Beginning,” a hit duet for the film Anastasia that Richard performed with Donna Lewis. Over the course of his career, Richard's songs have been recorded by Barbra Streisand, The Tubes, Sarah Brightman, Monica, Natalie Cole, Michael Bolton, Paulina Rubio, Emerson Drive, Chicago, Billy Ray Cyrus, Vince Gill, Kenny Loggins, LeAnn Rimes, Celine Dion, Julio Iglesias, Berry Manilow, Daughtry, Vertical Horizon, Lifehouse, Dave Koz, Jennifer Nettles, Ringo Starr, and many others. His memoir, Stories to Tell, is available from Simon & Shuster.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Sujin whispered with a bright smile.Ko: 추석 저녁 식사가 끝난 뒤, 가족들은 전통적으로 재능을 뽐내는 시간을 가졌습니다.En: After the Chuseok dinner, the family traditionally had a time to showcase their talents.Ko: 여러 명이 춤을 추고, 노래를 부르고, 농담을 하며 웃음을 터뜨렸습니다.En: Many danced, sang, and shared jokes, bursting into laughter.Ko: 그때, 지호는 깊은 숨을 들이쉬고 결심했습니다.En: Then, Jiho took a deep breath and made up his mind.Ko: 그도 자신의 노래를 가족들 앞에 선보이기로 했습니다.En: He decided to present his song to his family.Ko: "저도 한 곡 할게요," 조용하지만 단호한 목소리로 지호는 말했습니다.En: "I'll sing a song too," Jiho said in a quiet but determined voice.Ko: 가족들은 순간 조용해졌습니다.En: The family fell silent for a moment.Ko: 지호는 스스로 작곡한 노래를 부르기 시작했습니다.En: Jiho began to sing his self-composed song.Ko: 따뜻하고 감미로운 멜로디가 한옥을 가득 메웠습니다.En: The warm and sweet melody filled the hanok.Ko: 노래가 끝나자마자 집 안은 큰 박수 소리로 가득 찼습니다.En: As soon as the song ended, the house was filled with the sound of loud applause.Ko: 모든 가족들이 지호를 향해 환하게 웃으며 칭찬했습니다.En: All the family members smiled brightly at Jiho and praised him.Ko: 그중에서도 대원은 지호에게 다가와 어깨를 두드리며 말했습니다. "지호야, 정말 놀랍다. 너의 재능을 몰랐어."En: Among them, Daewon approached Jiho, patting his shoulder, and said, "Jiho, you were truly amazing. I didn't know about your talent."Ko: 지호는 대원과 가족들에게 깊은 지지를 받으며 자신의 재능에 대한 자신감을 얻게 되었습니다.En: Receiving deep support from Daewon and his family, Jiho gained confidence in his talent.Ko: 이제 그는 다른 사람과 비교하지 않고도 자신만의 길을 걸을 수 있다는 것을 깨달았습니다.En: He realized that he could walk his own path without comparing himself to others.Ko: 추석 밤의 달빛 아래, 지호는 온전한 자신의 모습으로 빛나며, 가족들과 함께 진정한 행복을 느꼈습니다.En: Under the moonlight of the Chuseok night, Jiho shone as his true self and felt genuine happiness with his family.

Auf seinem neuen Album “Große Kunst” erzählt er die Geschichte seines Vaters, der 1989 aus der DDR geflohen ist – und damit auch die Geschichte einer ganzen Generation. Ich wollte von Betterov wissen, wie sehr seine Herkunft seine Kunst beeinflusst und wie er entschieden hat, den “Ostrelikten” ein Album zu widmen. Wir sprechen über Herkunft, Züchtigung in der Schule, Gewalt in der Jugend, seinen Weg vom Industriemechaniker zum Musiker, über Freiheit, Verantwortung und warum er lieber über die Diktatur seines Vaters singt, als den nächsten Algorithmus-Hit zu produzieren. Es geht um Scham, Mut, Reflexion und darum, was es bedeutet, wenn man die eigene Geschichte endlich versteht.

He has been nominated for 15 Grammy awards and has won five, including Best American Roots Song, Best Bluegrass Album, and Best Country Instrumental Performance for his appearance on “Foggy Mountain Breakdown” alongside Earl Scruggs, Vince Gill, Albert Lee, and Glen Duncan on the 2001 album Earl Scruggs and Friends. Martin's latest album, his seventh bluegrass chart topper, is called Safe, Sensible and Sane, and is a collaboration with fellow banjoist Alison Brown.Brown first came to prominence as a member of Alison Krauss and Union Station and, in 1991, became the first woman to win the International Bluegrass Association's Banjo Player of the Year award. After a stint as Michelle Shocked's band leader she launched a solo career blending bluegrass, jazz, Latin, and Celtic influences. She has received two Grammy nominations for Best Bluegrass Album, and two for Best Country Instrumental Performance, one of which she won for “Leaving Cottondale,” a collaboration with Bela Fleck. In 2015 Alison received the Distinguished Achievement Award from the International Bluegrass Music Association for the furtherance of bluegrass music. She and Martin first collaborated on “Foggy Mountain Breaking” from her 2023 album, On Banjo.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Mexican singer Silvana Estrada made an immediate impression with her debut LP Marchita back in 2022. Quickly hailed as a unique voice in Latin music for her blend of jazz, chamber music, and traditional folk, Estrada took her time making her follow-up album, and it appears to have been time well-spent: Vendrán Suaves Lluvias, or “there will come soft rains,” is a heartfelt, elegant, quietly melodic album full of songs about love, lost love, and what it takes to just keep on keeping on. Silvana Estrada performs some of these latest songs in intimate arrangements on cuatro, accompanied by musician Joe Grass on guitar and pedal steel, in-studio. Set list: 1. Dime 2. No Te Vayas Sin Saber 3. Good Luck, Good Night

Welcome to the Pinkleton Pull-Aside Podcast. On this podcast, let's step aside from our busy lives to have fun, fascinating life giving conversation with inspiring authors, pastors, sports personalities and other influencers, leaders and followers. Sit back, grab some coffee, or head down the road and let's get the good and the gold from today's guest. Our host is Jeff Pinkleton, Executive Director of the Gathering of the Miami Valley, where their mission is to connect men to men, and men to God. You can reach Jeff at GatheringMV.org or find him on Facebook at The Gathering of the Miami Valley.Aaron Shust's fascination with music—with unique sounds, melodies, progressions, and techniques—has always been a salient part of who he is. From an early age, Aaron has felt most at home in front of a piano. Just as innate to Aaron is his love of God's Word—of wrestling with the Scriptures, with the hard and beautiful things they say, and the way they foretell and fulfill a picture of a suffering servant, King Jesus.You'll hear these twin loves in Shust's music, from his debut success with “My Savior My God,” winning the 2007 New Artist, Songwriter and Song of the Year. Later, as he grappled with a surprise Down Syndrome diagnosis for one son and waged a war with chronic illness for two, he continued to declare “My Hope is in You,” a song which spent 14 weeks at #1, and “Ever Be,” which debuted at #3 on the NCA chart. Over the past several years, Aaron has delved deeply into friendship with Messianic Jews, both in Nashville and Israel, as well as into the Hebrew Scriptures and Jewish tradition that they yield. Shust, a native of Pittsburgh, makes his home in Nashville with his wife Sarah and their sons Daniel, Nick, and Michael, as well as a growing menagerie of pets.

We're celebrating our 10th anniversary all year by digging in the vaults to re-present classic episodes with fresh commentary. Today, we're revisiting our 2020 conversation with Stax legend David Porter.ABOUT DAVID PORTER Named one of Rolling Stone magazine's “100 Greatest Songwriters of All Time,” Porter is best known for his songwriting partnership with Isaac Hayes that helped define the sound of Memphis's legendary Stax Records. As the first African American staff songwriter at Stax, Porter, along with his partner, wrote and produced songs such as “B-A-B-Y” for Carla Thomas, “Your Good Thing (Is About to End)”—an R&B hit for Mable John that later became a pop and R&B smash for Lou Rawls, and his own recording of “Can't See You When I Want To.” Hayes and Porter are best known, however, for their work with Sam & Dave, including such classic hits as “You Don't Know Like I Know,” “You Got Me Hummin',” “Hold On! I'm Comin'” (which later became a country hit for Waylon Jennings and Jerry Reed), “Soul Man” (which became a hit a second time thanks to the Blues Brothers), “I Thank You” (which was later covered by ZZ Top), and “When Something is Wrong with My Baby” (which was reimagined as a memorable duet between Otis Redding and Carla Thomas, a country hit for Sonny James, and an adult contemporary hit for Linda Ronstadt and Aaron Neville). The list of artists who've covered Porter's songs includes Aretha Franklin, Bruce Springsteen, William Bell, Melissa Ethridge, Bonnie Raitt, Garth Brooks, Etta James, Celine Dion, Wilson Pickett, George Benson, Dusty Springfield, Jerry Lee Lewis, The Staple Singers, Solomon Burke, James Brown, Eric Clapton, B. B. King, Tina Turner, Jackie Wilson, and more. His songs have been used as samples in countless recordings by artists such as Jay-Z, Eminem, Wu-Tang Clan, The Notorious B.I.G., Justin Bieber, Mariah Carey, and others. A highly celebrated giant among celebrated songwriters, Porter was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 2005.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
