Podcast appearances and mentions of Willie Mitchell

On the Rhythm Section podcast, Derrick and Jeff chat with Memphis guitarist and longtime instructor Rick Forbes about his background as an army brat who settled in Memphis in 1976, switching from saxophone to guitar after classic rock concerts, and joining bands soon after arriving. Forbes discusses how radio, FM album cuts, and modern streaming changed music discovery, and how he teaches students not to rely solely on YouTube. He outlines his current projects with Amber McCain and the cover band Spectrum, as well as past work with Jared Price's “Almost Elton.” He describes the challenges of faithfully performing pop and Elton John material live. He also recounts years in the instrumental jazz group Pacific Flight, odd gigs, and transcription work for Willie Mitchell's catalog, and highlights common Memphis venues and scheduling challenges.   TIP BUCKET If you find it in your heart to donate to the cause and help fuel the podcast you can do so through our new Venmo and CashApp. Your support is greatly appreciated and will help shine a brighter spotlight on the great Memphis Music Community.

Sunday the first of March: J & K are back on deck for The Swap Meet. Turns out it was a good day to be born - Oliver Sain, Willie Mitchell, Norman Connors and Harry Belafonte all blew out candles on this date, so naturally we pay our respects. We also took a moment to celebrate some fifty-year anniversaries: Dr Tree's landmark New Zealand fusion record, the Ohio Players' Contradiction, and Kool & The Gang's Love & Understanding all turning half a century old still killing. And we said farewell to Willie Colón, the South Bronx trombone legend who helped build salsa into what it is, gone this week at 75. Fresh music from Mark de Clive-Lowe, Andrea Lombardini, Tommaso Cappelato and Larry June inside the jam too, alongside the usual gear for the weekly rummage. Press the button.

In which the Curmudgeons celebrated the 1970s output of one of soul music's loveliest and most powerful voices. Yes, Al Green could sing his ass off. His falsetto may be one of the most mimicked in all of popular music. But there was a depth to Reverend Al that stops us both in our tracks. His expressions of making up, breaking up, loneliness, fearless masculinity, spiritual vulnerability and pure joy were awe-inspiring. And that was made more so by the incredible production and arrangement work behind him of partner Willie Mitchell and the Hi Records Rhythm Section. From "I'm a Ram" at the beginning of his classic run to "Belle" at its end, when Green penned his break-up with R&B is favor of gospel music, we cover all things Al in the '70s.    Listen to the music of Al Green by accessing our special Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/08kzflsz7tjGBbGfTDue9k?si=d76f76f2ceaa4eb3   Here's a handy navigation companion to this episode:   (00:52 - 02:41): Arturo Andrade sets the parameters for our discussion of Al Green   (02:51 - 17:29) - The Parallel Universe, featuring reviews of recent music from Sleaford Mods and Ryan Davis & The Roadhouse Band   (18:27 - 48:18) - We discuss Al Green's origins as, at first, a Memphis outsider. Then we cover the first part of his brilliant run of albums in the 1970s, featuring analysis of masterpieces I'm Still In Love With You and Call Me   (49:55 - 01:17:58) - We analyze the latter half of Al Green's storied '70s run, including the oddly titled Al Green Explores Your Mind and his swan song as a mainstream R&B performer, The Belle Album   Join our Curmudgeonly Community today! facebook.com/groups/curmudgeonrock   Edited with an assist from Descript! web.descript.com/    Hosted on Podbean! curmudgeonrock.podbean.com   Subscribe to our show on these platforms: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-curmudgeon-rock-report/id1551808911   open.spotify.com/show/4q7bHKIROH98o0vJbXLamB?si=5ffbdc04d6d44ecb   music.amazon.com/podcasts/5fea16f1-664e-40b7-932e-5fb748cffb1d/the-   Co-produced and co-hosted by The Curmudgeons - Arturo Andrade and Christopher O'Connor   

DT: STAYING HYDRATED WITH MARTY ROBBINS AND REV. AL GREENH2O - we can't live without it. As the temperatures rise, physically and spiritually, you better keep plenty of the life giving elixir handy. The human body contains over 50% of the stuff, the earth- about 70 percent. It's all around; within and without us. From the book of symbols: “River is vital fluidity: the rivers move through both the upper world and the lower world, over ground and underground, inside and outside: rivers of fertility and prosperity, rivers of forgetting, rivers of binding oath, rivers of commerce, rivers of blood and rivers of water, rivers of rebirth, rivers of death, rivers of sorrow…”Two streams of much needed refreshment will be  delivered by Marty Robbins and the Rev. Al Green today; dip in and be baptized.MARTY ROBBINS  / COOL WATERCool Water had been around for about 20 years when Marty Robbins included the song in his 1959 album Gunfighter Ballads and Trail Songs, which also featured the hit “El Paso”. It was written by Bob Nolan, founding member of The Sons of the Pioneers, and had been covered many many times. But, nestled here, among the other songs that comprise this formidable concept album, it takes on a mythic resonance. As Marty urges his parched mule, Dan forward through the unending desert,  his emotion choked voice cries out for an oasis of redemption. REVEREND AL GREEN / TAKE ME TO THE RIVERThe Reverend Al Green became fully ordained in 1976, two years after he wrote and recorded this soul classic. In 1974, with the assistance of production wizard Willie Mitchell, he created this toe tapping ode to spirituality and lust.  Al must have had an premonition of the rebirth that was about to occur, because'74 was also the year that his peccadillos came home to roost: when he was scalded by hot grits, wielded by suicidal, ex-lover, Mary Woodson.And, this cut contains both the sacred and the profane in equal measure - not explicitly, but in the hip chugging funk juxtaposed with the call for baptismal relief.  Rock n Roll has been called “The Devil's Music:” Al may have strayed, but has since devoted himself to the gospel of rehabilitation.

Produced by the legendary Willie Mitchell in Memphis, the Townsend Sisters' “You Can't Hurry God” is a gospel powerhouse!

-"Miguel Ángel Julián, "Soul Teller", es un excelente cantante y compositor, que lleva más de 30 años trabajando en el mundo de la música y actuando en escenarios de varios países. Pionero del "Soul" en nuestro país con su banda "The Cool Jerks", es el único artista español que grabó con el legendario productor norteamericano Willie Mitchell en su estudio de Memphis y su dominio del inglés le ha llevado a vivir en Londres estos últimos años. Desde la capital británica, Miguel Ángel desarrolla su trabajo artístico por diferentes países europeos y ahora viene a nuestro país para realizar varios conciertos, incluida una actuación, que se espera sea memorable en la plaza mayor de Salamanca el 13 de Septiembre. Aprovechamos la ocasión para hablar con Miguel Ángel Julián, "Soul Teller", de estos últimos años, de su trabajo actual y de sus próximos proyectos." -"La organización de defensa de los animales "Anima Naturalis", ha realizado una profunda investigación sobre las fiestas populares con toros en nuestro país. Ha sido un trabajo arduo, complejo y lleno de obstáculos pues muchos ayuntamientos y comunidades no aplican una política de transparencia sobre el uso de fondos públicos. Como resultado de esa investigación, la organización destaca que más de 1800 municipios organizan cada año algún tipo de fiesta popular con toros y se destinan al menos 42 millones de euros anuales para esas fiestas. Y esa cifra puede ser el doble o más, pues, aunque la Ley exige transparencia en el destino del dinero público que hace cada ayuntamiento, sólo el 47% de los ayuntamientos contactados por la organización, respondió cumpliendo los plazos determinados por la Ley 19/2013. Muchos de los ciudadanos de esos municipios no conocen las partidas que dedican sus ayuntamientos a este tipo de actos y muchos de ellos preferirían que se dedicaran a otros fines.

I am joined by Willie Mitchell. Willie is the owner of Tofino Resort + Marina, a high-end boutique hotel with adventure in its DNA. He spent 16 years playing hockey as an NHL defenseman and his career peak came with the LA Kings, where he was part of the club's two Stanley Cup-winning rosters in 2012 and 2014 , he retired in 2016 and took on an entirely different challenge when he and two partners purchased a motel and marina in the small Vancouver Island resort municipality of Tofino. In this episode Willie talks about his safe haven and his connection with nature, finding his identity, the realities of being in the NHL, learning about business as he went, being known as “Willie Mitchell the hockey player” and feeling like he was more than that, insecurities of not being a great student, and reaching that “high” with the Stanley cup. He also talks about his business and what he learned from being in the hospitality industry. Follow @wellnowwhatpodcast

Label: Hi 2075Year: 1964Condition: M-Last Price: $30.00. Not currently available for sale.This amazing instrumental doesn't get enough attention outside of the (relatively) small club of knowledgeable soul music fans around the world. Even within that group, a lot of folks probably think of Willie Mitchell primarily for his work with Al Green and other artists in the early 1970's at Hi in Memphis. Never knowing that he also produced a string of seminal instrumental soul records every bit as influential as those of better-known Memphis acts like the Bar-Kays or Booker T & the MG's. This is probably his very best of the best. And don't think all the goodness is on the A side, either... this one's bright 'n' lively B side is hugely popular with Northern Soul clubs. Note: This beautiful copy comes in a vintage Hi Records factory sleeve. It grades very close to Mint in appearance (Labels, Vinyl) and has powerful, pristine Mint sound.

Host J.D. Reager revisits his conversation with a Memphis music icon, the late Howard Grimes. They discuss Mr. Grimes' early career as a drummer in the '50s, his work with fellow legends such as Rufus & Carla Thomas, William Bell, Al Green, Ann Peebles, O.V. Wright and Willie Mitchell, writing his autobiography Timekeeper, and how Memphis music has evolved over the years. This conversation originally ran on the Back to the Light podcast in June of 2021, and was re-aired in this form on WYXR 91.7 FM radio on June 20, 2022.

Former Vancouver Canuck and “West Coast Express” line member Brendan Morrison joins Sekeres & Price for an extended interview. Reflecting on his early days growing up in Pitt Meadows, British Columbia playing street hockey in his cul-de-sac. His development as a player into his draft year and his time spent with the Canucks. Now retired from the NHL, Brendan spends his time hosting his firing and adventure show "Reel West Coast." Former Vancouver Canucks forward, Brendan Morrison, joined Matt and Blake for our latest holiday special programming. Started off talking about playoff hockey. Says they are the best games to play in. Talked about going up against Mike Smith, who played for the Coyotes, as a Blackhawk. In the battle of Alberta, he is going for the Flames, having played there for awhile. Talked about growing up in Pitt Meadows. Doesn’t exactly remember the first time he was on the ice but he was 5 years old. Took to the game right away. Road hockey was a huge part of his life growing up. From an early age, he was always a guy that put up numbers. Not saying it was easy but that was his job. He just went out and played and that was the outcome. Talked about why he went the Jr. A and college route. Talked about being added to the Portland Winterhawks protected list. He was pretty intent on going to school, though. Talked about his time in Michigan. Was there the same time the Fab 5 were there. Knew that he needed to get bigger and stronger and 4 years at school gave him that time. Talked about the players he played with. It was never a rebuild but a reload, every year. Talked about “The Michigan”. He was on the ice when it happened. Talked about being drafted by the New Jersey Devils. Talked about him getting drafted right on the nose where Bobby Mac had him going. Talked about the Devils development system at the time. Admits he may have been a little impatient with how they brought him along. His time in the minors was good for his development in hindsight. Talked about meeting Willie Mitchell. Talked about the story of him getting called up to his first NHL game. Talked about his first year with the Canucks. Talked about playing on the West Coast Express. Talked about playing with Todd Bertuzzi. He was the best power forward in the game. A total package. When he played a bruising, finishing his checks style, he created room. They all thought the game very similarly. At the same time, they all brought something different. Talked about what would have been had they gotten past the Minnesota Wild in 03. Talked about the Bertuzzi - Moore incident. Says he looks back and it was the perfect storm. If it was a close game, none of this happens. Nothing was meant to happen the way it did. It was horrendous for everyone. Talked about his final year with the Canucks. BMo really believed that he would retire a Canuck. Didn’t end up that way. Talked about how the deal with Anaheim came together. Had a tough year that year. Says it was the first time he dreaded going to the rink. Still thought he was coming back to Vancouver for 10-11. Told the story about training camp. Was totally blindsided by not making the team after coming in on a PTO. Said he never got a call from from Gillis or Gilman. Got a call from Henning. Said they wanted to get younger and bigger. Was pissed off. Knew the team had a legit chance to win and couple be used as a complimentary piece. It’s over with now. Flames gave him a call. The next day, he signed in CAL. Talked about Reel West Coast. Wants to show off the adventure that fishing is. Not only reeling in the fish but the culture, the scenery. He has been all over the place. It’s been a great success. Talked about who the better fisherman between him and Willie Mitchell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Talked about his time in Michigan. Was there the same time the Fab 5 were there. Knew that he needed to get bigger and stronger and 4 years at school gave him that time. Talked about the players he played with. It was never a rebuild but a reload, every year. Talked about “The Michigan”. He was on the ice when it happened. Talked about being drafted by the New Jersey Devils. Talked about him getting drafted right on the nose where Bobby Mac had him going. Talked about the Devils development system at the time. Admits he may have been a little impatient with how they brought him along. His time in the minors was good for his development in hindsight. Talked about meeting Willie Mitchell. Talked about the story of him getting called up to his first NHL game. Talked about his first year with the Canucks. Talked about playing on the West Coast Express. Talked about playing with Todd Bertuzzi. He was the best power forward in the game. A total package. When he played a bruising, finishing his checks style, he created room. They all thought the game very similarly. At the same time, they all brought something different. Talked about what would have been had they gotten past the Minnesota Wild in 03. Talked about the Bertuzzi - Moore incident. Says he looks back and it was the perfect storm. If it was a close game, none of this happens. Nothing was meant to happen the way it did. It was horrendous for everyone. Talked about his final year with the Canucks. BMo really believed that he would retire a Canuck. Didn’t end up that way. Talked about how the deal with Anaheim came together. Had a tough year that year. Says it was the first time he dreaded going to the rink. Still thought he was coming back to Vancouver for 10-11. Told the story about training camp. Was totally blindsided by not making the team after coming in on a PTO. Said he never got a call from from Gillis or Gilman. Got a call from Henning. Said they wanted to get younger and bigger. Was pissed off. Knew the team had a legit chance to win and couple be used as a complimentary piece. It’s over with now. Flames gave him a call. The next day, he signed in CAL. Talked about Reel West Coast. Wants to show off the adventure that fishing is. Not only reeling in the fish but the culture, the scenery. He has been all over the place. It’s been a great success. Talked about who the better fisherman between him and Willie Mitchell.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Al Green is often referred to as ‘The Last of the Great Soul Singers'. In the 1970s the masterpieces he released, like ‘Let's stay together' and ‘Tired of being alone', were in part due to record producer and vocal mentor Willie Mitchell, who signed him to his label Hi Records. Mitchell's influence stretches from the Rolling Stones, Talking Heads, Wu-Tang Clan, to Kanye West. Back then, Green enjoyed seven consecutive million-seller hits. But slap-bang in the middle of his success, he was ‘born again', brought on after his girlfriend, Mary Woodson White, poured a load of grits (boiled cornmeal) over him, causing severe burns before committing suicide. She was furious he wouldn't marry her despite the fact that she was already married. By '76, Green had become a Reverend, and in '78, when his commercial success faded, he started recording Gospel music for which he won eight Grammys over a period of a decade. In 1988, he returned to his soul roots and alongside Annie Lennox, recorded ‘Put a little love in your heart'. A year later he released ‘The message is Love' with Arthur Baker. By the time I met Reverend Al Green at the Full Gospel Tabernacle in '93 for an MTV News at Night special on Memphis, he had released the widely underrated album, ‘Don't Look Back', which featured the song ‘Love is a beautiful thing'. He played and sang for us. That particular song starts with the words ‘This is what I believe' and towards the end references his greatest hits. When I asked him about his own influences, he cited Elvis Presley. He told me that Elvis was the forerunner, not only for him but for all others of his era. Green had bought all Elvis's music and told me that he had met him in the urinal of a Beale Street club in Memphis, where they instantly bonded. Later, in an often repeated quote, he has said he would have shaken Elvis's hand but it just didn't seem appropriate at the time! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Moving is never “fun” but along the way (if you're lucky) you find little treasures. During our latest move, I found boxes and cases with interviews. It got me to thinking – where is that Solomon Burke Interview? We had talked at the Edmonton Folk Festival several years earlier and in 2010 when he was releasing a new album Nothing's Impossible. Produced by Willie Mitchell in Memphis. Same Studio, producer, musicians as Rev Al Green! We had a great chat and off he went – passing away weeks later as he passed through Amsterdam's airport. I simply couldn't find the heart to go back and listen to the interview. Every time I heard the first words I started to tear up. So. I walked away from the interview thinking the day will come when I can deal with it. Well, today's the day. Solomon Burke was asked in an interview “are you a gospel/church singer or a blues singer?”..Solomon's reply was “I'm a soul singer” He was the first artist to use the phrase. The man was a preacher, singer, writer, mortician!  When it came to the music business he was not to be messed with. If you get a chance check out his life story. It's a wild ride.   Solomon Burke by-the-numbers Performed 55 years. 38 studio albums. 17 record labels. Grammy winner. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. 17 million albums sold.  In 2008 was #89 of Rolling Stone Magazine's 100 greatest singers of all time. AND Father of 21 children and Grandfather of 90 Grandkids.  

Kicked out of his childhood home by his religious father for the hideous crime of listening to Jackie Wilson, Al Green was hustling in a bordello when he was discovered by the bandleader Willie Mitchell. He went on to be inaccurately described as the Last of The Great Soul Singers, and defined the Memphis soul sound of the early seventies with the ten steamy hot slabs of utilitarian jamming that comprise this Greatest Hits. It's generally regarded as one of the best ‘best of' records in the history of recorded music. It's also the 456th Greatest Album of All Time, according to Rolling Stone magazine's 2020 list. This week, Christopher Macarthur-Boyd and Liam Withnail listened to it, and now they're going to talk about it. Featuring cool comments and white-hot takes on everything from the drumming of Al Jackson Jr., the pavlovian response of all Scottish comedians to ‘Reet Petite' by Jackie Wilson, porridge-based bath attacks, and the non-goodness of religious music, to the accusation that Al Green once shoved his secretary through a glass door. All that plus Quizzz, Secret Posho, and Tattoo Woohoo/Tattoo Boohoo, on this week's episode of Enjoy An Album. Enjoy!

Making a Scene Presents an Interview with Mississippi McDonaldMacDonald knows that tradition. He's been to Al Green's church and heard him preach. He's been to Willie Mitchell's Royal Studios in Memphis, where the great records on the Hi Label were recorded. He's seen Jerry Lee Lewis kick over his piano stool. He's met B.B. King and Pinetop Perkins, Otis Clay and Sam Moore. Big Joe Turner told him to listen to Albert King. In 2008, he was a prime mover in finally getting a stone for the previously unmarked grave of soul legend O.V. Wright.

-"Miguel Ángel Julián, "SOUL TELLER", lleva más de 30 años componiendo y cantando Soul, Rock, Blues y otros géneros nobles. Con sus más de 10 discos y cientos de conciertos tanto en nuestro país, como fuera de nuestras fronteras, Miguel Ángel, ha compartido escenario con grandes de la música internacional, como Bonnie Tyler, Percy Sledge, Paul Carrack ó Solomon Burke, entre muchos otros. Ahora nos presenta nuevos temas, grabados entre Madrid y Memphis . Por un lado, en Memphis ("ROYAL STUDIOS") ha contado con la producción de Lawrence "BOO" Mitchell, hijo del legendario Willie Mitchell, con el que también grabó Miguel Ángel hace años. Lawrence ha ganado un Grammy, por su trabajo como productor e ingeniero en el disco "Uptown Funk" de Bruno Mars. Y, por otro lado, en Madrid ha contado con los buenos oficios de su gran amigo, el productor Kike Eizaguirre. El resultado es extraordinario y nos encontramos con todo un himno en defensa de nuestro malherido planeta Tierra, "BE-BAH-BAH" (Save the Planet) y otros temas excitantes como "Paranoia" y "Please Dónt Die", entre otros. Hablamos con Miguel Ángel Julián, "SOUL TELLER", de estas nuevas canciones y de sus próximos conciertos." -"Nazaret Castro y Laura Villadiego son dos experimentadas periodistas, con amplia experiencia internacional en diferentes medios escritos. Buenas conocedoras de la realidad social y económica de muchos países productores de materias primas nos presentan ahora el libro "Carro de Combate"-Consumir es un acto político- (Editorial Clave Intelectual). Es un excelente trabajo de investigación sobre los impactos que, a nivel económico, medioambiental y de salud tienen muchos y muy diferentes productos, como el aceite de palma, el cacao, el café, la carne y los productos textiles y de electrónica, entre otros. Una constante recorre el libro: las enormes diferencias de precio que hay entre lo que se paga a los productores y el precio final que pagamos los consumidores. Por el medio se enriquecen los distribuidores con amplísimos márgenes de beneficio. Además, en muchos casos, se producen prácticas de oligopolio; muy pocas empresas controlan la producción y distribución de diferentes productos y las trabajadoras y trabajadores en esos países viven en condiciones durísimas. También se han encontrado on situaciones de trabajo infantil y el capítulo del Medio Ambiente es, también, muy importante en este este libro-guía de investigación. Hablamos con las dos autoras."

Chad Cromwell was born in Paducah, Kentucky, on June 14th, 1957. When he was three years old his family moved to Memphis, Tennessee, where he grew up. He started playing drums at the age of eight, wearing headphones as he played along to records in an upstairs room of his parents' home. By the age of twelve he was playing in garage bands in the local neighborhood. Among Chad's early influences were drummer Al Jackson and the artists of Stax Records, and artists such as Al Green on Willie Mitchell's Memphis based label, Hi Records. Jim Stewart, founder of Stax Records, along with Bobby Manuel, started a production company called The Daily Planet after the sale of Stax. Chad "hung out" and subsequently worked for The Daily Planet and learned more about rhythm and recording than anywhere else thus far. In fact, Jim and Bobby were key influences on Chad's style of drumming. In 1975, upon graduating high school, Chad flew to London to join two Memphians who already had gigs. Dave Cochran was playing bass for Chris Spedding, and Robert Johnson (not the legendary) was playing with Jon Entwhistle in Ox. Robert had been offered a record deal with Elton John's label, Rocket Records, and called fellow Memphian, Chad, along with David Cochran to record as Lash LaRue. Chad also got an "education" with Larry Raspberry & The Highsteppers, a very high powered rhythm and blues band. This was his first extensive touring band (piled into the back of a van, pulling a trailer).   *******SUBSCRIBE/RATE/REVIEW!!! www.richredmond.com/listen The Rich Redmond Show is sponsored by: Big Dot Lighting - Commercial LED Lighting Specialists and Bruce Cline Home Loans & Mortgage Refinance | Movement Mortgage www.musiciansmortgage.com Through associations with a recording studio in Memphis, Chad caught an ear on the West Coast. He started playing with legendary guitarist Joe Walsh in 1986, a collaboration which produced two albums, Got Any Gum? and Ordinary Average Guy, and resulted in multiple US and worldwide tours. The following year, 1987, Chad got the call to record with one of the world's most prolific songwriters, Neil Young. These sessions became Neil Young & The Bluenotes. After touring to promote this record, and producing MTV's 'Video of the Year,' "This Note's For You," Neil's interest circled back to 3-piece Rock & Roll which led to the New York and San Francisco recording sessions that ultimately became the album Freedom. In 1990, Chad moved to Nashville, got married and started a family. Richard Bennett and Tony Brown were among the first producers to call in Chad for sessions in Nashville. Richard and Tony have been extremely helpful in helping Chad to create a very successful recording career. Formal recognition from his peers came in 1996 when Chad was nominated for the Nashville Music Awards as Chad's career has seen him in the studio and on stage/TV/touring with an impressive list of major recording artists. In addition to those already mentioned, Chad has worked with Willie Nelson, Jackson Browne, Boz Scaggs, Wynonna, Bonnie Raitt and Peter Frampton. Chad recorded and toured with Mark Knopfler for the ten years. His playing can be heard on each and every solo recording of Knopfler's including his most recent Shangri La. During the Summer of 2006, Chad toured with Crosby, Stills,Nash and Young. Chad performed on Neil Young's Heart of Gold Movie directed by Johnathan Demme. Chad spent 2006 recording and touring with Neil Young and CSNY's "Freedom of Speech Tour". Chad also recorded tracks featured on a new box set release These Days by acclaimed country music star Vince Gill. Some Things That Came Up:  -Playing live versus recording -Lightning in a bottle -Hearing the nuances of the players across multiple artists -Ed Sullivan show inspired Chad -Meeting his wife via Joe Walsh -Eddie Izzard, "Death or Cake” bit -Playing for Joe the very first time without a rehearsal -Nashville celebs are just regular people, except the ones who aren't -Chad's encounter with Sting -Getting into Film and TV composition  -Thick skin and persevering through the storms and fires of life  -Rollin Stone “Unknown Legends” piece  -A+R for Craviotto drums with Sam Bacco -Getting Little Richard's autograph  -The best martini in LA   Socials:  @chad.cromwell The Rich Redmond Show is about all things music, motivation and success.

Shane figured out how to play "Mary Had a Little Lamb" at age three. Too tiny to actually reach the piano keys, he picked out the notes by reaching up and feeling for them with his fingertips. Thus began his lifetime of music. He's created music hand in hand with legends of the recording industry, ranging from Elvis Presley and Paul McCartney to Arif Mardin and Ahmet Ertegun. His diversity as a player, arranger, producer and composer is amazing: pop to classical, jazz to R & B, country to alternative, appearing in one form or another on many thousands of recordings. Born in Huntington WV, Shane began formal classical piano training with Edith Sweeney before reaching his fourth birthday and moved to Portsmouth, Ohio when he was 7. There he continued piano studies in the years to follow with his adored teacher, Dorothy Knost. With her guidance, he began winning the coveted "Guild" piano competition awards year after year. At age twelve, while beginning junior high school, he met the inspirational Ralph Harrison, the McKinley Junior High School Band Director. Ralph asked Shane to join the school's orchestra and the big-band swing band. He also studied and performed choral music with another wonderful teacher and friend, Charles Varney, and with Bob McCoy at Portsmouth High School. Shane also began playing with many local musicians and bands in the Tri-State area. His family moved back to Huntington for his senior year, where he attended Huntington High School and enrolled at Marshall University, where he studied with Mary Shepp Mann. At the end of his freshman year, he left Huntington to "...travel and play music!...". He eventually moved to Dallas TX and soon enrolled in the jazz program at North Texas State University. By age nineteen, he was working in Dallas music production houses and studios, playing piano and organ two to three days a week on everything from film scores and records to radio libraries and jingles. He withdrew from NTSU and, seeking work as a studio musician, moved to Memphis. Within just a few weeks, he was blessed by reuniting with the legendary Jim Stewart of Stax Records and began working as a staff pianist/keyboardist in the Stax Rhythm Section. He also worked as a session pianist at Pepper/Tanner and with producers Al Jackson Jr., Willie Mitchell and Chips Moman. In 1971, Chips asked Shane to join the American Studios Rhythm Section as a staff pianist, where he worked with music icons such as Arif Mardin and many others. Learn more about creating financial and emotional freedom at www.freedomhacknow.com In 1972, Shane was in such demand as a pianist/session keyboardist from his work in Dallas and Memphis that he moved to Nashville. Word of his talent and abilities spread rapidly and he was soon working constantly. In 1974, he was contacted by Paul McCartney and performed on the "Junior's Farm/Sally G" sessions. Subsequently, Shane was called to play on several tracks on Elvis Presley's "Promised Land" album. Presley was so impressed with Shane's keyboard work that he personally requested Shane accompany him as pianist on the forthcoming '76 tour. His studio career continued at lightning speed, as he performed on and arranged hundreds of records for major artists. He also became an early explorer of synthesis and digital recording, purchasing a Mini-Moog in 1971 and purchasing his first digital audio recording system in 1981. In the late 80's, Shane had the great fortune of meeting legendary record mogul Ahmet Ertegun. Ahmet realized Shane's abilities and versatility and recruited him as a staff producer. He worked closely with Ahmet and with many of Atlantic's artists until April 2001, when he started his own independent production company. He returned to Nashville, TN in 2004 and continues to reside there. Shane currently performs live with Lynda Carter and is a member of the Musician's Hall Of Fame. As a producer/arranger, he's been twice nominated for a Grammy and received two Dove awards and one Cleo award. Shane is able to enrich any project he's part of, and he continues to be one of the most sought after talents in the industry.   Break free from whats holding you back from creating financial and emotional freedom! www.freedomhacknow.com

This one clocks in at one second under 90 minutes.  - We better-get-to-know another Tyler (Graovac) and another Travis (Boyd), but the real prize is the Växjö Laker we met along the way. - We're sorry, Tim Peel, but this story is really about Colin Campbell's emails, the dynamic trio of Tony Gallagher, Jason Botchford, and Willie Mitchell, and the eternally contemptible sportswriters of New England circa 2011. - This week's One Timers include digging into Andy Van Hellemond's debit card situation, a historic night for three members of the Ontario Reign, and washing our hands once and for all of Rasmus Andersson.   Thanks for listening!
