Today's episode features Dr. Stanley Jordan, as he discusses recent advances in desensitization therapies and exciting new approaches coming soon.
Before Stanley Jordan was a household name he was getting his career started with Madison, Wisconsin as his homebase. The young player made routine trips up to the Twin Cities and he credits the Twin Cities as the first major metro area where he built up a fanbase. Even though Jordan can now command a crowd in every corner of the planet he's quick to come back to the Twin Cities, specifically the Dakota. He's holding court there on Thursday and he took the time to chat with Sean McPherson about his love of the Twin Cities, his approach to playing solo and his celebrated and unorthodox guitar technique.

MY TIME?Let me know. Thank you______________________________________Fake Intro for my nephew, Ben Mishkin's 11th birthday, I will just introduce it as “my podcast”, play the clip and wish him a happy birthday, then we cut back to our normal intro tune and I do a regular introduction. What do you think? Bennie and the Jets - Elton John - Live in London 1974 HD (youtube.com)0:08 – 1:18 "Bennie and the Jets" (also titled "Benny & the Jets") is a song written by English musician Elton John and songwriter Bernie Taupin, and performed by John.[3] The song first appeared on the Goodbye Yellow Brick Road album in 1973. "Bennie and the Jets" has been one of John's most popular songs and was performed during his appearance at Live Aid.The track was a massive hit in the United States and Canada, released in 1974 as an A-side using the spelling "Bennie". In most territories the track was released as the B-side to "Candle in the Wind", using the spelling "Benny". Album artwork (back-cover track listing and center-panel design) consistently lists the song as "Bennie" while either "Bennie" or "Benny" appears on the vinyl album depending on territory. The track was released as an A-side in the UK in 1976, as "Benny and the Jets".It is ranked number 371 on Rolling Stone's list of The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.Happy Birthday to my nephew Ben who turns 11 today while at summer camp in the Poconos. Great time to be alive. There with his big sister Lily and lots of good friends while his younger brother Nate has the run of the house! Have a great day big guy. And now, back to our regularly scheduled show: Normal house intro music Great show today from one of the Deadhead's favorite venues, Ventura County Fairgrounds. Basically on the car racing track and demo derby. View is of the beach and ocean. Shows start in the afternoon, 2 or 3, so no real light show except mother nature and if you are lucky, a beautiful sunset just as the show ends or shortly thereafter. Location of my first show ever and the only time I saw the boys there. This show is two summers later and finds the Boys cranking along in 1984, a big year for me in terms of shows that included a big chunk of Spring tour, Red Rocks, my first summer tour experience, first Alpine, and first New Years shows. Still found time to graduate from Michigan and start law school. INTRO: Loser Track #4 2:40 – 4:20 The song seems covered in the Americana dust of so many songs from this period of Hunter's and Garcia's songwriting partnership. Abilene, whether in Texas or Kansas, is a dusty cowtown—at the time in which the song seems to be set, the cattle outnumbered the human inhabitants by a factor of tens. It's easy to see the scene Hunter so casually sets, of a broken-down gambler in a saloon, with a dirt street outside full of armed cowpokes.Appearing, as it does, on Garcia (Jan, 1972), the song seems to pair naturally with the other gambling song on the album, “Deal.” It could be sung by the same character on a different day, in fact. And it fits in, as I mentioned, with a whole suite of songs that might be set in the same generic America of the late 19th or early 20th centuries: “Brown-Eyed Women,” “Jack Straw,” “Mister Charlie,” “Tennessee Jed,” “Cumberland Blues,” “Candyman,” and others, as well as certain selected covers, such as “Me and My Uncle,” and “El Paso.”The crowning glory of the song, as in many other Garcia/Hunter compositions, is the bridge.The song culminates in this cry of hopefulness: “Last fair deal in the country, Sweet Susie, last fair deal in the town. Put your gold money where your love is, baby, before you let my deal go down—go down.”(It's noted that “Sweet Susie” was dropped at some point, but then, occasionally, brought back. I think it was an optional decoration to the line. Alex Allan, in his Grateful Dead Lyric and Song Finder site, notes that “Sweet Susie” rarely appears after 1972, but that it's sung in performances in 1974 and 1979.)The version at this show is one of the best I've ever heard. Garcia's voice is growling, his guitar playing spot on, energy bursting out of him. 1984 was a great year for the Dead and this show, and this tune, really epitomize all of it. Almost always a first set tune, usually first part of the set, traded off with Candyman, Must Have Been The Roses, and other first set Jerry ballads.Played: 353 timesFirst: February 18, 1971 at Capitol Theatre, Port Chester, NY, USALast: June 28, 1995 at the Palace at Auburn Hills, MI (Detroit) SHOW No. 1: Day Job Track #8 1:00 – 2:39 Garcia/Hunter “new tune” Never released on any studio recording, appears on Dick's Picks #6, Hartford Civic Center Oct. 14, 1983 in case you've never heard it. It's claim to fame, per Robert Hunter himself, is that “this song was dropped from the Grateful Dead repertoire at the request of the fans. Seriously.” I heard it a few times. Not my favorite, but good when Jerry was sharp and rocking like this version. Really one of the best.

In 1954, it was recorded by Muddy Waters,[2] and released as a single with the title "Just Make Love to Me". The song reached number four on Billboard magazine's R&B Best Sellers chart.[3]Backing Waters on vocals are Little Walter on harmonica, Jimmy Rogers on guitar, Otis Spann on piano, Willie Dixon on bass, and Fred Below on drums.[1] Waters recorded the song again for the album Electric Mud (1968).The Rolling Stones covered the song on their 1964 debut album The Rolling Stones. In 1972, British blues rock group Foghat recorded a studio version for their self-titled debut album in 1972. The song was also released as a single and it became their first single to reach the charts, appearing at No. 83 on the Billboard Hot 100[9] and No. 31 in Australia.[10] An eight-minute version from a 1977 concert performance is included on Foghat Live. It was edited down to 3:56 release as a single, which reached number 33 on the Billboard Hot 100[9] and No. 28 on the RPM Top Singles chart in Canada.

Pe 26 mai, Teodora Brody, prima artistă care a dat voce Rapsodiilor compuse de George Enescu, revine la București cu un concert memorabil! "Unifying World", un eveniment muzical în care muzica clasică întâlneşte jazz-ul. Despre concertul de la Bucureşti, care dă startul unui turneu în Statele Unite, vorbim astăzi în RFI360 cu Teodora Brody. În 2023, Teodora Brody lansa albumul 'Rhapsody', înregistrat cu London Symphony Orchestra, sub bagheta lui Robert Ziegler. 'Rhapsody' aducea împreună prelucrări vocale în premieră după teme celebre din muzica clasică. Un album ce pornește de la Rapsodia nr.1 a lui George Enescu. ” Teodora Brody a profitat de șansa de a face o mișcare evolutivă în viitorul muzicii. Imaginația și curajul ei sunt admirabile”, au scris americanii de la faimoasă revistă Fanfare, iar spaniolii de la Ritmo au subliniat: ”Cu Bartók și dansurile sale românești, românca este în elementul ei, devenind un punct de întâlnire între trei forțe copleșitoare ale naturii: Bartók, jazzul și Teodora Brody.” Născută în România, în prezent stabilită în Elveția, Teodora Brody s-a pregătit inițial în jazzul clasic și a devenit cunoscută la sfârșitul anilor 1990 și începutul anilor 2000, cântând alături de legendarul pianist de jazz Johnny Răducanu. Teodora a fost pionieră în fuziunea jazzului cu Doina – creație lirică specifică poporului român – și este larg recunoscută pentru introducerea publicului internațional în lumea unică a acestui gen muzical, profund emoționant și personal. Căutând teritorii muzicale de explorat, Teodora a interpretat alături de muzicieni precum Stanley Jordan, Theodosii Spassov, Lars Danielsson, Johnny Răducanu, Les Paul, Curtis Fuller, Eric Legnini, Phillippe Duchemin, Guido Manusardi, Benny Rietveld, Daniele di Bonaventura, Ion Baciu și Al Copley. Pe scena mondială, Teodora a apărut în mod regulat la prestigioase festivaluri europene de jazz, inclusiv Montreux, Lugano și Marciac, iar peste Atlantic a cântat la Biblioteca Congresului din SUA și la Galeria de Artă Corcoran, precum și la cluburi legendare cum ar fi Iridium New York și Blues Alley din Washington D.C.Cu proiecte unice precum „Unifying Worlds”, „From Classical to Jazz” și „Classical Emotion”, Teodora a explorat repertoriul clasic cu o abordare complet nouă, creând și interpratând versiuni vocale originale ale unora dintre capodoperele create de Bach, Beethoven, Enescu, Pachelbel, Vivaldi, Bartók, Pablo Casals.Duminică 26 mai, Teodora Brody prezintă concertul "Unifying World", la București, la Sala Luceafărul.

Transcript included below…In the Timothy Dalton James Bond film The Living Daylights, Bond is traveling quickly through Europe with Kara, a cellist who plays a Stradivarius. She absolutely cannot part with her instrument, even though it's slowing them both down as they elude their pursuers.In a moment of frustration, Bond asks, “Why didn't you learn the violin?”There are some big instruments out there, and the cello is one of them. Another is the electronic keyboard.I've had conversations with people who play 88-key full-sized electronic keyboards. One of their biggest complaints is how heavy their instruments are to transport.The two aforementioned instruments aren't even among the biggest instruments out there. Some need to be brought in on wheels like marimbas, tympani or harps. Others are so big that they need to be permanently located in a church or cathedral, like an organ.But the guitar? Ah…what a delightfully portable instrument. I've taken my guitar to many places, and some of them have turned out to be just a little bit unique.Today's episode is mostly intended to be informative and hopefully interesting, with some stories from my travels. I'll share just a handful of places I've played my guitar that are out of the ordinary. I've got 12 locations to share with you. Here we go. I'll start with some watercraft.1. The bow of a fishing boatMy father and I have enjoyed many deep-sea fishing trips up the coasts of Washington and British Columbia. One fishing trip was long enough that it made sense for me to bring my guitar for some diligent practice. So, I'd sit or recline in the bow of the boat, working on my chord fingerings and scales. I'm glad I brought it with me, because I made progress.2. A Ferry BoatNear where I live, in the Puget Sound, we often take a ferry over to see relatives. After returning from a guitar seminar with Pierre Bensusan in France, I wanted to show my relatives what I had learned, so I took my guitar on the ferry.While I was on the ferry, I decided to uncase my guitar and play a little. It wasn't long before a roving mandolin player showed up where I was seated, and we jammed for a moment. 3. A RaftWhen I was courting my wife, one day I made a picnic for the two of us, and drove us up to a mountain lake. I had packed an inflatable Zodiac raft, and in addition to the food items, I had brought a guitar. I enjoyed playing some songs for her out on the lake. You don't typically see a guitar in a raft on a lake, but there it was.Ok, now that I've talked about watercraft, let's come back onto land.4. A DockI've had the opportunity to spend time with friends at a lake, and to be able to enjoy music while “sittin' on the dock of the bay.” Yeah, you know what I mean. There's something restful about sitting and enjoying some guitar, along with the gentle lapping of the waves. Playing the guitar anywhere near water, especially near a bonfire on a beach, can be very soothing.So now that we're back on land, here are a few instances of where my guitar was with me in transit with wheels spinning beneath me.5. A Chevy VanOn a trip to Montana for some river fly fishing (also with my Dad), I brought my guitar. Interstate 90 East was relatively straight most of the way, so I sat in the back seat of the van with my seatbelt on, working through rudiments and exercises on my guitar. Again, I was redeeming the time.I ended up writing some really good music on that trip. Having the guitar nearby was such a blessing during those long hours of travel. And of course, I took time to connect with my father as well.6. A BusOn a mission trip to Mexico, a youth group I was in volunteer leadership for decided not to fly, but instead to take a bus. It took longer, but saved some money. I went as a translator, and I had my guitar for the optional worship leading opportunities in the villages where we visited for Vacation Bible School.I also got to have the opportunity to play it for the base camp gatherings, sharing songs in front of probably two thousand people who had gathered for the evening sessions. It was really cool.I remember traveling to Mexico, on the way south via Interstate 5. That highway is also rather straight most of the way. I sat towards the back of the bus with my guitar, learning some very technical fingerstyle guitar music by Alex DeGrassi. One song in particular was the song “Window” in the tuning of ECEGCD – with a lot of very fast sixteenth notes. I took it slow and learned to play it. It was a good use of the time…even thought I was a little self-conscious with the youth kids listening in. I got over it, and I got better.7. An Impromptu Tailgate ConcertWe had lunch with some friends some time ago, and I had written a blues song that I had to share with them. It had some Stanley Jordan “touch style” techniques and a tongue-in-cheek theme. I knew they'd love it.I had my guitar with me at the restaurant where we met up, and after we paid the check, I invited them out to the parking lot where our SUV was parked. I opened the back hatch, sat down in the back, and played the song for them as they stood in the falling snow, delighted to experience an impromptu tailgate mini-concert. 8. A Shuttle StopNot long ago, I was waiting for a shuttle in a parking lot, because I was going to fly out from Seattle/Tacoma Airport. The shuttle had a covered area where I sat with my suitcase and…my guitar case. I uncased my guitar while I waited, and played some original songs and worship songs that I was planning to play on my upcoming California tour dates.Two fellow passengers arrived and sat and listened. I started to think that I was intruding on their silence, but when I went to put my guitar away, they stopped me, expressing how much they were enjoying what I was sharing. So, I kept playing.And as it would logically follow, another location would be…9. The AirportAfter arriving at the airport and making my way through security out to the gate, I've often found myself with a good solid hour or more to kill.I can save my reading for the plane. What I can't do on the plane is play my guitar. So, I'll often uncase my guitar, sit down on the floor, and quietly play something. I'm usually competing with a lot of intercom announcements and the hustle and bustle of travelers, so it's typically not a distraction to anyone.But if I'm thinking that my playing might be distracting, I'll just strum with the fleshy part of my thumb and lean over to hear the strings softly humming. I can also make my pick articulations very soft.It's a great way to make use of the time, watching the planes land and take off…and occasionally, it leads to a conversation starter with a fellow musician, or someone who just enjoys music.10. “Crisscross Applesauce” next to the BathtubWhen I was a young parent, my kids sometimes took baths when they were little, and they of course needed very close supervision, but also the opportunity to splash about before getting scrubbed down.So, I'd sometimes bring my guitar into the bathroom and sit an arm's length away from whoever was having a bath…and I would strum some chords while closely observing my kid in the bath. My strumming provided a bit of a soundtrack to bath time, and when I was needed, I just set my guitar down on the floor mat, and helped bathe my kid. It was a good mix of work and play.11. StairwellsSome hotels or school dorms have these concrete stairwells that have lots of echo in them. But here's the thing; an echo chamber can serve as a beautiful impromptu acoustic space.Playing a soulful fingerstyle guitar piece in one of these stairwells (as long as it's not too cold) can actually be a really powerful experience, because it's like a concrete cathedral. The music just doesn't sound the same as it would in a carpeted room.So, whether I've been at a hotel far from home or needing a study break at college, I've found opportunities to take my guitar into the stairwell and let it sing.Last but not least…12. The Outdoor Bass SectionalI've saved this one for last, because it was highly unexpected, but super practical.There are lots of outdoor spaces where a guitar can find its place, especially if the weather is nice. But in this instance, it was more out of necessity.I was pursuing a vocal performance degree in college, and part of my contribution to the music department was to sing in the concert choir. If you've sung in choirs, you know that there are typically four basic vocal parts – soprano, alto, tenor and bass.I was the bass section leader. And every Tuesday, we'd have sectionals, where, for the majority of the class time, the four sections would break up and go find another large room in the music department to practice, ideally with a piano for “plunking” notes.But this time, there was a large group of guest high schoolers on campus for an all-day workshop, so we didn't have a place to practice.But we still needed to have our sectional. And we didn't have a piano or even a keyboard.But what did we have? My guitar was fortuitously stored in my locker that day, so when I realized what the circumstances were, and what our need was, I grabbed it.I have this clear memory of me sitting out in the seating area outside the Performing Arts Center, leading the Bass Sectional by “plunking” notes on my guitar as they sang, overlooking Bellingham Bay.It was a unique experience and setting, and we got a lot done.But there's one detail about this that you may or may not have noticed. Do you know what was especially unique about what I was doing?Think for just a moment about what you know about the guitar and where it resides in terms of music notation. The guitar is a treble clef instrument.Now, the notes in treble clef for the guitar are notated an octave higher than what they actually sound, so as to avoid too many ledger lines.But let's back up even further. Playing notes on the guitar is a rather unique approach.For classical guitarists, it's their bread and butter. But I was an acoustic folk guitarist. And most people who play acoustic guitar appreciate the opportunity to have chord shapes and perhaps some tablature to light the way.The good news was that I had been investing a serious amount of time going through all 7 grades of Mel Bay's Modern Guitar Method, to the tune of about 400 pages. And this particular method didn't use tablature. At all.In choosing this method, I subjected myself to a learning style that allowed me to become musically literate much earlier on in my guitar development, and therefore, I was ready when the need arose for me to guide that sectional.The guitar was just loud enough to be played unplugged outside to cue notes and fragments for the basses.The paradigm had shifted from an indoor rehearsal space with a piano to an outdoor rehearsal space with a guitar, but we redeemed the time, and after that sectional, we had made significant progress.The added bonus was that I had taken the leap towards sight reading a treble clef instrument in bass clef. Good times.Ok, just for fun, here are the 12 Unlikely Places to Play a Guitar, once more:1. The bow of a fishing boat2. A Ferry Boat3. A Raft4. A Dock5. A Chevy Van6. A Bus7. An Impromptu Tailgate Concert8. A Shuttle Stop9. The Airport10. “Crisscross Applesauce” next to the Bathtub11. Stairwells and…12. The Outdoor Bass SectionalThe Big PictureSo, why has the guitar surfaced in all of these unique places?I would say that there are two main reasons. First, music practice is important, and perhaps a necessity, and therefore, the guitar was something that needed to be within reach to facilitate progress.Second, music is a nearly unstoppable force. I believe music is a gift from the Lord, and therefore, it has inherent mystery woven into it. Why do so many of us enjoy music so much?Because it touches our souls.So perhaps grabbing a guitar and playing it, regardless of the location in which we find ourselves, allows us to speak the language of music where it would otherwise be quiet.It's almost like striking up a conversation as we feel prompted.So, the appearance of the guitar could be practical…or it could be artistic. Or it could be both.But the important thing is that the guitar did indeed appear.I've met folks who own guitars, but their guitars don't make much of an appearance very often…to their chagrin. They feel this disappointment, knowing that at one time, they wanted to learn to play, but didn't set aside time or space.And at the same time, they feel this longing to discover the joy of music, because they've caught glimpses of it when listening to other people play.Where are you on your musical journey? Do you have regrets about past seasons of not playing your guitar? Do you feel like it might be too late to start? Let me put that misconception to rest…it is never too late to learn to play something on the guitar.Do you feel like you're on your own, and don't have opportunities to learn and grow, aside from the big world-wide web and the vast sea of information that's out there? To coin a phrase, you are not alone.But here's how I can help you, if you see the need for some help. I founded an online experience in 2019 that's dedicated to helping beginning and intermediate Christian guitarists discover and cultivate their gifts for the glory of God in a community setting.I could go into greater detail, but that description could be enough to pique your interest.

Phil Collins wrapped up his commitments as front man and percussionist for Genesis and collaborative work with Eric Clapton in 1984, then commenced work on his third album, No Jacket Required. It was released in February 1985, and had hits on the charts in July. The name of the album was inspired by an incident where he was not allowed into The Pump Room restaurant in Chicago because he did not have the proper dress code jacket. His friend, vocalist Robert Plant, did have the correct attire and was let in. After he relayed the story in appearances with late night hosts David Letterman and Johnny Carson, restaurant management sent Phil a complementary sport jacket and apology letter, inviting him to come back wearing “whatever he wanted.”Unlike previous albums Collins decided to make this third solo album more upbeat with several dance-oriented singles. Collins was also able to recruit a number of musicians to the effort, including former Genesis bandmate Peter Gabriel and Police front man Sting.The result was a huge commercial success, reaching number 1 on the US albums chart for seven consecutive weeks and on the UK albums chart for five. The four singles released all went into the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100 charts, with two topping the charts. It was a critical success as well, bringing home three Grammy awards including “Album of the Year.” Collins would move from a successful musician to a celebrity on the strength of this album, which would be his highest selling solo effort.Rob brings us this album for our podcastOnly You Know and I KnowRob starts us with a deeper cut co-written by Phil Collins and Darryl Stuermer. Stuermer played bass for Genesis tours, and lead guitar for Collins' solo tours. The lyrics contain a number of contradictions. “When I ask you, what you see in me you say, 'Our love is blind.'”Don't Lose My NumberWhile this song was not released as a single in the UK, it went to number 4 on the US charts. The lyrics were created in a stream-of-consciousness improvisation session, and Collins himself doesn't really know what they mean. The video is a comedic look at the decision process on theming the video, with Collins in multiple parodies of other videos popular at the time.Inside OutThis track has a feel similar to some of the slower Genesis pieces. The lyrics describe a person who faces a crowd of people telling him what to say and what to do without regard to what is authentically himself. Collins uses a combination of drum machine and drum kit on this song.We Said Hello GoodbyeThis song was not originally on the album, but was a B-side to the single release of "Take Me Home" and "Don't Lose My Number" as well as a bonus track on the CD. The lyrics discuss leaving an old home and moving to a new one, but the emotions may reflect things left behind in life more broadly. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Main Theme from the motion picture “Back to the Future”Marty McFly made his journey back from 1985 to interact with his 1955 parents in a tricked out DeLorean for this iconic picture released in 1985. STAFF PICKS:You Spin Me Round (Like a Record) by Dead or Alive We're a bit concerned about Wayne as he abandons his punk and hard rock sensibilities to bring us this danceable hit. Dead or Alive were a foursome from Liverpool, England. Lead singer Pete Burns would later be on the TV reality show “Celebrity Big Brother.”The Confessor by Joe WalshBruce brings us the title song from Walsh's seventh studio album. It is heavier and darker than many of Walsh's singles. “If you look at your reflection at the bottom of the well, what you see is only on the surface. When you try to see the meaning hidden underneath the measure of the depth can be deceiving. The bottom has a rocky reputation.” Raspberry Beret by Prince and the Revolution Lynch features a song about young romance and a summer fling. Although this song was released after Prince's success with “Purple Rain,” Prince still played most of the instruments, making the song primarily a solo effort. It is off off the album “Around the World In a Day,” and reached number 2 on the Billboard Hot 100.And She Was by Talking Heads Rob finishes the staff picks with a song penned by David Byrne from the Talking Heads, off the album “Little Creatures.” It is an unusual song about a girl levitating over everything, and the guy who loves her and wishes she would come down to the ground. It reached number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Fundance by Stanley Jordan Finger tapping jazz guitarist Stanley Jordan would set a record when his album “Magic Touch” spent 51 weeks at the top of the Billboard jazz charts.

Ronnie Laws is an award-winning tenor saxophonist and composer whose career has, since the early 1970s, straddled the worlds of jazz and R&B. Since 1975 he has placed seven albums in the Top 200 -- including his 1975 Blue Note debut Pressure Sensitive -- as well as tracks and albums in no less than six other categories. He has worked as an in-demand session man and live musician with a who's-who of jazz and R&B greats including Ramsey Lewis, Gregory Porter, B.B. King, George Duke, Quincy Jones, Stanley Jordan, and dozens more. Laws, the younger brother of flutist Hubert Laws, is the product of a musical family. Two of his sisters, Debra and Eloise, are also professional singers. Born in Houston, Texas, Laws began teaching himself to play the alto saxophone at the age of 11. While his first love was baseball, a serious eye injury ended those dreams early and he focused on music, which he studied in high school, at Stephen F. Austin State, and later at Texas Southern University, where he switched to tenor, earned a degree, and developed a progressive mastery and technique. In 1970 he moved to Los Angeles in pursuit of a musical career. He woodshedded with the Jazz Crusaders (Hubert had played with them in the '50s) and especially Hugh Masakela. His early gigs in the city were with pianist Walter Bishop, Jr., Doug Carn, and on his brother's CTI recordings. In 1972, he joined Earth, Wind & Fire for 18 months and was, in effect, its first saxophonist, playing both tenor and soprano; he played on the album Last Days and Time. In Los Angeles, he made the acquaintance of Donald Byrd. The two became friends and Byrd got Laws signed to Blue Note. His 1975 debut, Pressure Sensitive, got serious radio play despite landing at 73, and yielded the enduring jazz-funk classic "Always There." It has been covered and/or sampled by well over 100 artists. Laws was on his way. With his other '70s work -- 1976's Fever, Friends and Strangers, and Flame -- which boasted his first cross continental 12" hit "All for You," Laws established himself as a workhorse studio musician, playing on recordings by Ramsey Lewis, his sister Eloise, Arthur Adams, Gene McDaniels, and Wayne Henderson, to name a few. In the '80s, Laws was an international festival and club draw. Three singles from his first three albums all went gold, as did their respective long-players. Despite the fact that he is often characterized strictly as a "smooth jazz" artist, Laws might be the first instrumentalist to score hits in the emerging "quiet storm" subgenre of R&B.

On today's episode, Scott interviews his friend, Ed Alstrom, a multi-talented musician, who holds a B.M. degree in Organ Performance from Westminster Choir College, where he studied classical music during the day, while playing jazz, pop and rock gigs at night. A highly sought after organist in the tri-state area, he can play seamlessly in all styles of music, in addition to singing, and playing keyboards. He has performed with artists that include Bette Midler, Chuck Berry, Leonard Bernstein, Blood, Sweat and Tears, various NY Broadway Pit Orchestras, and was a member of the pit band for the Uncle Floyd Show, a NJ/NY tv show that featured sketch comedy and live music. Ed was also a Product/Marketing Manager at Casio Inc., composing/arranging demo songs for their keyboards, while demonstrating products live on stage with legendary musicians Stanley Jordan, Herbie Hancock and Donald Fagen. In the field of religious music, he divides his time between being a church director/organist and Temple accompanist/choir director in NJ. In 2004, Ed fulfilled his childhood dream when he became the weekend organist at Yankee Stadium, and is still entertaining baseball fans in that role with his organ music. This organist, singer, and keyboardist, certainly GOT CHOPS!

My guest today is Emily Hughes, filmmaker and also the daughter of the late guitar giant, Lenny Breau. In this interview Emily discusses her fathers legacy and her new film entitled "The Genius of Lenny Breau Remembered" as well as the first documentary she did back in 1999- "The Genius of Lenny Breau." I highly recommend watching both of these excellent documentaries to get a really unique insight to the life, music and struggles of Lenny Breau, one of the greatest innovators in jazz guitar IMO (post Wes Montgomery and pre Stanley Jordan.) I was also interested to hear that his murder case- (he was found dead in a rooftop swimming pool in 1984 at his apartment in Los Angeles) has recently been re -opened by the LAPD. Hopefully we get some answers into what happened and justice is finally served. In the interview I mention a lesson that New Orleans guitar great Phil DeGruy took back in the early-mid 1980's that someone posted to Soundcloud and Phil sent me a link to. You can find that here. Please check out Lennybreau.com for more info on the movie and everything else going on in the world of Lenny Breau.
