Purchased by the legendary Leon Russell in a deal struck at the diner across the street, Tulsa's Church Studio has become an iconic piece of music history. All-time greats like Tom Petty, George Harrison, Eric Clapton, and Stevie Wonder recorded there while the former real-life church was used as the home of Shelter Records in the 1970s, and the walls still very much contain a musical soul. On this week's show we meet up with Teresa Knox, who revived the Church Studio after it had sat vacant for many years. Today it is a first-rate recording studio once again, as well as a key tourist destination for music fans. Church Studio's Carney Fest, a celebration of Leon Russell's top-hat showmanship and legacy as a godfather of the Tulsa Sound musical style and movement, takes place Saturday, May 3. Also on this week's episode, the editors discuss some of the historical sites in Oklahoma they love to visit, and podvents triggers some old prom memories.

This week we take a listen to the 1971 debut LP by J.J. Cale Naturally. Though not a household name, J.J. Cale (or Johnny Cale as he was originally known) was a songwriter, singer, engineer, and guitarist of great renown among his fellow musicians. He has penned songs made famous by other artists (Lynyrd Skynyrd, Poco, and, most famously Eric Clapton) and he may well be one of the most influential guitarist in rock. A pillar if the "Tulsa Sound" (whatever that is), his laid back approach and his guitar style has inspired many a great axe man. Some contend that it has even been outright copied by others (albeit, subconsciously -- hello, Mark Knopfler). This, his debut, contains some of his best-known tunes, such as "They Call Me The Breeze", "After Midnight", and "Magnolia". Find out what makes this artist and this album so influential.

Welcome to Tulsa Talks presented by Tulsa Regional Chamber. I'm your host Tim Landes.My guest on this episode has been providing the soundtrack for fun Sunday nights at the Colony for a decade. He's also played just about every stage in Tulsa during his nearly 30-year career. If there was a Mount Rushmore for modern Tulsa musicians Paul Benjaman's sunglassed smiling face would be there representing the new Tulsa Sound. Paul has toured all over the US and Europe, and played many music festivals, including representing our city and state's music scene numerous times at South By Southwest. Since 2010, he has been featured on multiple Horton Records releases, including a few studio albums. He also appears on the 2020 compilation “Back to Paradise: A Tulsa Tribute to Okie Music” where he covers JJ Cale, Don White, Steve Pryor and Teegarden & Van Winkle.” Paul learned from legendary guitarist Junior Brown and has worked with Steve Earle, Jamie Johnson, George Porter Junior of The Meters, John Densmore of The Doors, Kris Kristofferson, Rita Coolidge, Gary Busey and many more. There was also an appearance on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon as sideman for the T Bone Burnett produced Secret Sisters. When he's not playing live music, he's been helping others learn how to play guitar for 25 years through as an instructor at Guitar House of Tulsa. We featured a great article on the business earlier this year that is linked in the show notes. We discuss his musical origins, his long career in music and what has kept him in Tulsa all this time. We talk about the current state of the music scene and what he's got in the works and lots more.

Con este programa culminamos la temporada número 47 de TOMA UNO y no sabemos si tendrá continuación a partir de septiembre. En los últimos 18 años, nunca nos habíamos tomado vacaciones en estas fechas... hasta el presente. Tendremos todo el mes de Agosto para preparar una próxima temporada a conciencia, aunque seguiremos contactados a través de las redes sociales. Nos hemos enterado de la muerte durante la pasada semana de Jamie Oldaker, socio fundador y batería de los Tractors, además de un respetado músico de sesión para artistas como Eric Clapton, Bob Seger o Leon Russell, entre otros muchos. Nativo de Tulsa, en Oklahoma, formó los Tractors junto al trístemente desaparecido Steve Ripley. Nos dejaron canciones inolvidables como "Baby Likes to Rock It" en 1994, a cuya presentación oficial asistimos aquel año en Nashville durante la celebración de la Fan Fair. Hace 15 años, el ahora desaparecido Jamie Oldaker publicó en el sello Concord el álbum Mad Dogs & Okies, donde cio todo el protagonismo a invitados tan brillantes como Clapton, J.J. Cale, Ray Benson, Vince Gill, Willie Nelson o Tony Joe White. Era un homenaje a la herencia musical de su estado natal, Oklahoma, y por lo tanto no podía faltar el legendario J.J. Cale, con su voz y su guitarra en “Daylight”, un tema propio que ejemplariza a la perfección el Tulsa Sound. Es evidente que Margo Price no deja indiferente a nadie. Así ocurrió con sus críticas directas a la administración Trump y ahora la amplitud de miras de su nuevo álbum, That's How Rumors Get Started. La artista de Aledo, en Illinois, sigue aventurandose por todos los caminos que se abren a su paso y tampoco ha dejado fuera el legado que Muscle Shoals ha dejado en la escena de la Americana. Esas influencias clásicas que van mucho más allá de Nashville se reflejan en "Prisoner of The Highway", donde habla de los músicos en gira y en el que el Southern rock y el góspel se confunden, conformando uno de los cortes más sobresalientes de un álbum que mira con cariño hacia el rock clásico. Los que se consideran más puristas ya han levantado la voz y las quejas. El susto al saber que Sturgill Simpson era el co-productor aún no se lo han quitado de encima. Ethan Johns, un productor curtido al lado de nombres tan eclécticos y sonoros como Ray LaMontagne, Paul McCartney o Kings of Leon, ha sido el encargado de trabajar al lado de Mary Chapin Carpenter, a la que se llevó hasta los estudios Real World de Peter Gabriel en Bath, al suroeste de Inglaterra, para grabar The Dirt And The Stars, el nuevo álbum de la cantante compositora de Nueva Jersey, que explora los desafíos del presente desde una visión íntima y personal. Mary Chapin compuso estas canciones en su granja de Virginia antes de la pandemia, y deja momentos tan intensos como “Secret Keepers”, un recordatorio de aquellas experiencias irremplazables que nunca desaparecen. Que las cicatrices desaparezcan no significa que lo haga el dolor que las produjeron. The Dirt And The Stars supone la primera colección de nuevas canciones desde que hace cuatro años publicó The Things That We Are Made Of. En 2018 lanzó junto a Ethan Johns y en los estudios de Peter Gabriel Sometimes Just The Sky que, excepto el tema que lo dio nombre, era una celebración de sus 30 años de carrera discográfica con nuevas versiones de algunas de sus canciones más queridas. Lori McKenna, la compositora y vocalista de Stoughton, en el estado de Massachusetts, se mantiene en la senda de construir grandes canciones que profundizan en sus experiencias personales y que vienen a ser, en cierto modo, una versión femenina de lo que puedan suponer Jason Isbell o Sturgill Simpson. En el tema central de su nuevo álbum, The Balladeer, recién editado, nos encontramos con el temor de que el cantar sobre una relación feliz impida, precisamente, el reconocimiento que suele tenerse por las composiciones que describen relaciones dolorosas y desgraciadas. Parece ser casi una norma en Courtney Marie Andrews que no haya demasiado optimismo en sus propuestas, y en este séptimo registro se mantiene la tónica. Desde el delicioso vals de apertura, "Burlap String", hasta el final no hay una sola nota de más y su voz persiste en el convencimiento más absoluto. La joven cantante y compositora de Arizona que cumplió 29 años el pasado diciembre ha querido que su nuevo trabajo, Old Flowers, sea precisamente un disco de ruptura, con el riesgo que suponen que exista una cantidad ingente de discos que tratan sobre esas tensiones emocionales. La autocompasión puede resultar empalagosa y siempre estás en el difícil equilibrio de que una canción sea un terrible cliché terapéutico o que se convierta en un clásico intemporal. Hace cuatro años debutaba un cuarteto de Sheridan, en Wyoming, llamado The Two Tracks con un disco homónimo que se convirtió en el mejor álbum del año para la emisora pública de aquel estado. Aquello supuso que al año siguiente Will Kimbrough quisiera hacer su presentación como productor con Postcard Town y que ahora persista en esa labor con Cheers to Solitude, su nuevo disco, con un sonido familiar enraizado en la tradición que supone un paso significativo hacia adelante con respecto a sus propuestas previas. Se editará a mediados de agosto y fue grabado en el mítico The Butcher Shoppe de Nashville, muy pocos meses antes de que se viera obligado a cerrar para reconstruirlo. Un tema como “All Women Are Healers” es en cierto modo un himno de apoyo a las mujeres, inspirado en el título de un libro de curación natural. El protagonismo de ellas en los cambios y la conciencia de combatir ciertos los estándares sociales y prejuicios a los que las mujeres aún se enfrentan en el mundo está muy presente. Con sus raíces en Texas, Evan Ogden se inspira en los clásicos que escuchó por primera vez en los discos de su abuelo, pero su interés está en que las nuevas generaciones también receptivas a esas propuestas que como en “Thunderstorms” provoca una tormenta emocional parecida a las muchas que van apareciendo lentamente a nuestro alrededor. Volvemos a encontrarnos con reflexiones muy honestas y personales de un joven músico de Austin que descubrió muy pronto lo significativo que fue el country de los años 1940, aquel que plantó las semillas para apreciar el impacto de una música conmovedora. Omnivore sigue dando sorpresas a los coleccionistas con ediciones puntuales que recuperan tesoros inesperados e inéditos. Esta vez se trata de escarbar en los archivos del trío América y conformar Heritage II: Demos/Alternate Takes 1971-1976 como una continuación del primer volumen publicado en 2017. En esta ocasión las canciones se han centrado, excepto las dos primeras, en dos álbumes producidos por George Martin: Holiday de 1974 y Hideaway del 76. El sexto trabajo de América fue Hideaway, grabado en el Caribou Ranch de Nederland, en el estado de Colorado cuando América estaba culminando su carrera en Warner Bros. Allí encontramos "Amber Cascades", una canción de Dewey Bunnell con una letra abstracta de tonos espirituales cuyo arrope instrumental evoca el soleado sur de California bajo el sol. La mezcla alternativa que podemos escuchar por primera vez de su tercera toma enfatiza el carácter de la composición en sí misma, sin las armonías vocales ni la orquestación que escuchamos en su edición original. Hace exactamente 45 años, los Eagles alcanzaban el primer puesto de las listas con el álbum One Of These Nights. Fue el aldabonazo definitivo en aquel verano de 1975, consiguiendo con él un Grammy como mejor grupo de pop tras permanecer durante cinco semanas en la cima de las listas generales. Pero Bernie Leadon abandonaría la banda en diciembre de ese mismo año al no comulgar con la dirección musical tomada. El álbum One of These Nights nos dejó aún cierto protagonismo de Bernie Leadon, que participó en la composición de hasta tres de las nueve piezas del trabajo, incluyendo "Hollywood Waltz", un tema que pasó demasiado inadvertido y en el que compartía autoría con Don Henley, Glenn Frey y su hermano, Tom Leadon, que había sido socio fundador de Mudcrutch, la primitiva banda de Tom Petty. Tras tocar el bajo con Linda Ronstadt, se unió a Silver, un grupo de country-rock californiano. En 2007, Tom Petty volvió a contar con su tocayo en la reforma de Mudcrutch. Sin abandonar a la banda californiana, el pasado miércoles, Don Henley cumplía 73 años, desde su nacimiento en la tejana Gilmer y crecer en Linden. Militó en los Four Speeds, que pasaron a llamarse Felicity, luego estuvo en Shiloh y de ahí a los Eagles. Por primera vez en su carrera, Don Henley logró hace cinco temporadas que uno de sus álbumes en solitario alcanzara la cima de las listas. Cass County, su último trabajo, debutó en el No. 1 de las de country. El artista tejano regresó de manera decidida a los sonidos de sus comienzos con un álbum que rezuma tradición en el fondo y nl las formas. La estrecha colaboración entre Don Henley y Stan Lynch, socio fundador de los Heartbreakers de Tom Petty, fue vital en la composición de muchos de los nuevos temas, pero en canciones de la categoría de “Waiting Tables”, posiblemente la mejor de aquel trabajo, participaron también Timothy B. Schmit y Steuart Smith en la creación y contó con Jamey Johnson en los coros. “Take It Easy” de los Eagles fue la canción con la que comenzamos la primera temporada de TOMA UNO allá por 1973 y es la que hoy escuchamos para cerrar la número 47 del programa. Aunque no estaremos en antena, seguiremos en las redes sociales y nos encantaría que fuera posible vernos en los conciertos, porque la música sigue siendo cultura y apoyamos una #cultura segura. Confiamos en volver a primeros de Septiembre en la nueva temporada de Radio 3. Nos encantaría seguir cumpliendo años juntos. Escuchar audio
Christian has the immense pleasure of getting to know two of Tulsa's finest musicians, Casey Van Beek and Walt Richmond, who are two parts of the Casey Van Beek and the Tulsa Groove band and they have a new album called, Heaven Forever. It's out now. So for some good old down home rock n roll, go get the record wherever you get your tunes!Casey was born in Holland but raised in Los Angeles from the age of five, and fit right in to the burgeoning local ‘60s rock scene. By his teens he was playing bass and singing in The Vibrants, who opened for The Dave Clark Five and The Rolling Stones' first L.A. area show, and also toured with Peter and Gordon. He moved on to backing the wonderful Linda Ronstadt, along with two guys named Don Henley and Glenn Frey. When the duo left to start the Eagles, Casey headed to Tulsa with Don Preston to record with the Shelter People, part of Leon Russell's Shelter Records label.Tulsa surprised him—the blues, country, and rockabilly had fermented there into a mellow blend called the Tulsa Sound, and he quickly discovered that the bands in town were playing as much Freddy King and B.B. King as Merle Haggard. Then he realized he was home, a place where the music vibes were right, and where you could get out of town into open country in five minutes. It took a while to find his way into the scene, but fairly soon he was in a band with Walt Richmond and Jim Byfield. And is once more.Eventually, Casey joined Tulsa's multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated band The Tractors, which included Casey, Walt Richmond who also joins us today, and the future Tulsa Groove member Ron Getman. Do you remember the hit Baby Likes to Rock It. Got them to the White House and we will talk about that for sure!Three members of the Groove (Richmond, Byfield, and Steve Hickerson), would back Bonnie Raitt during her tenure in Tulsa, playing shows in the area to (successfully!) protest the construction of the Black Fox Nuclear Power Plant. Walt would go on to play on Tulsan JJ Cale's Grammy-winning Gold album collaboration with Eric Clapton, The Road to Escondido, so impressing Eric that he's played on all of his albums since then.When they weren't on the road collaborating with people like Clapton, Cale, Bonnie Raitt, Linda Ronstadt, or Bill Medley, they played around town. Casey and Walt Richmond began to get tight, first recording Christmas songs, then writing original Christmas songs, then gathering at Walt's home studio to record more of their own originals and favorite covers, selecting the best players around to add their touches on a few songs at a time.This wasn't to satisfy anyone's record contract or dreams of stardom, but out of camaraderie and an enjoyment of each other's musical company; music for music's sake. There's a purity to that. So they have a new record out this week called ‘Heaven Forever', produced by Walt Richmond, that showcases what they are capable of when they focus their in-demand skills on their own music. They are carrying on the legendary Tulsa sound of forerunners like Leon Russell, JJ Cale and Elvin Bishop, the band is adding their own new flavors while keeping that historic tradition alive for current and future generations.Heaven Forever by Casey Van Beek and the Tulsa Groove is set for release on April 24, 2020, via the Little Village Foundation. It will be available on all the major digital platforms.http://littlevillagefoundation.com/casey-van-beek-and-the-tulsa-groove/https://www.amazon.com/Heaven-Forever-Casey-Tulsa-Groove/dp/B084ZB8NBY/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=van+beek+tulsa&qid=1587677592&s=dmusic&sr=1-1
Christian has the immense pleasure of getting to know two of Tulsa's finest musicians, Casey Van Beek and Walt Richmond, who are two parts of the Casey Van Beek and the Tulsa Groove band and they have a new album called, Heaven Forever. It's out now. So for some good old down home rock n roll, go get the record wherever you get your tunes!Casey was born in Holland but raised in Los Angeles from the age of five, and fit right in to the burgeoning local ‘60s rock scene. By his teens he was playing bass and singing in The Vibrants, who opened for The Dave Clark Five and The Rolling Stones' first L.A. area show, and also toured with Peter and Gordon. He moved on to backing the wonderful Linda Ronstadt, along with two guys named Don Henley and Glenn Frey. When the duo left to start the Eagles, Casey headed to Tulsa with Don Preston to record with the Shelter People, part of Leon Russell's Shelter Records label.Tulsa surprised him—the blues, country, and rockabilly had fermented there into a mellow blend called the Tulsa Sound, and he quickly discovered that the bands in town were playing as much Freddy King and B.B. King as Merle Haggard. Then he realized he was home, a place where the music vibes were right, and where you could get out of town into open country in five minutes. It took a while to find his way into the scene, but fairly soon he was in a band with Walt Richmond and Jim Byfield. And is once more.Eventually, Casey joined Tulsa's multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated band The Tractors, which included Casey, Walt Richmond who also joins us today, and the future Tulsa Groove member Ron Getman.
