  • The Week In Reviews - Holland Phillips

    21/09/2019 Duración: 45min

    A strange question for you, what do Prog Rock and Neo Classical (I hate the term New Age) musicians have in common? The answer, is very few are self taught, the vast majority have gone to school to learn the art and science of music. Yes, there is an underlying science to music. Truly gifted musicians like Holland Phillips have mastered both the art and science. I really enjoyed this album, I mean no disrespect to any Neo Classical solo musician, but there is a tendency for the tracks to have a certain look and feel of sameness about them. So begins my review.I will be sitting down with Holland and exploring this very fine album

  • Journey Into Justice - Bello and Barrett

    17/09/2019 Duración: 01h02min

    This week on the program attorney and author Mark Bello and I are going to dive a little deeper into the subject of sexual abuse by the clergy. Mark’s debut novel Betrayal Of Faith is about this very subject and is loosely based on his experience some years ago representing abuse victims.   Time permitting we may discuss the current state of Bail Bond reform, and the pro’s and con’s of the proposed changes.

  • Journey Into Justice – Bello and Barrett

    This week we touch on many subjects—as the ‘non attorney’ here, I wish to revisit last week’s Opioid discussion and the $572 million levied against J & J. In addition, let’s discuss the college admissions scandal; actress Felicity Huffman is being sentenced this week. At the same time, some 3000 non-violent prisoners are being released because of the “First Step Act.” We’ll talk to Mark Bello about these two issues. Is Vaping the next “Opioid-type” crisis? How can the law prevent a crisis? Finally, “Gerrymandering;” what is it and why should we care in 2020? All this and more, please join us for a great discussion.

    This week on the program attorney/author Mark Bello and I will be joined by veteran trial attorney J.R Whaley. Last weeks decision against Johnson & Johnson for $572 million for their role in creating the Opioid crisis likely did not surprise many people. J&J of course are appealing the verdict. The question I have, is, are we looking at a relplay of the Big Tobacco story? This is sure to be a lively discussion

    I have long had a keen interest in the somewhat murky waters of the legal system Attorney and author Mark Bello has agreed to join me in a weekly dive into the heady space of the legal world. In this epispode we will merely be dipping our toes into the subject. Financier Jeffery Epstein commited suicide this week, and even though Trump would have us beleive that it was a glorious conspicacyby the Clintons, proof is in short supply but who cares when you have 50 million twits following your tweets? On a more serious note, how was a vey high risk person abble to hang himself in a high security jail?

    Noel Jasso on drums. Produced by Geoff Pearlman (“Echo in the Canyon Band”), “Follow Me to the Sun” is one of the featured songs in the Hollywood Fringe Fest Encore Award winning musical “American Stranger the Musical” (music & book by Laura Espinoza).   The song is about someone who feels desperate & lonely after someone has left them; the reason is never revealed. This person then hopes they will find a way to reunite, but it may not be within earthly bounds.   “Seem so long since you drove away, standing out in a chill burns my naked face, Morning gushes in a shallow wind, but the fire from your kiss keeps the flame within”

    Potter’s Daughter will be releasing their new single “Blood and Water” featuring legendary Renaissance vocalist Annie Haslam on August 8, 2019!

Potter’s Daughter was formed in New York City while Dyanne Potter Voegtlin was studying classical piano performance at the Manhattan School of Music. A pupil of Robert Goldsand and Mike Longo, Dyanne searched for the marriage of classical theory and virtuosity with the freedom and innovation of jazz both in study and performance. Together with a rotating group of masters from many schools of music, Dyanne performed regularly in New York City, as well as in north-eastern Pennsylvania. Now, joining forces with long-time friend, Amit Chatterjee, (producer, arranger, and guitarist), and Ian C.

  • The Week In Reviews -Jack Spann - Propaganda Man

    11/07/2019 Duración: 57min

    An interview with Jack Spann about his new album Propaganda Man Jack Spann has had an incredible couple of years. The Saint Louis native has lived in New York City for the last 18 years and established himself as one of the city's in-demand keyboardists. His reputation led to an introduction to David Bowie's producer, Tony Visconti who hired him to play on the demos for what would be Bowie's final album, Blackstar.         Spann's Visconti connection did not end there. It led to an introduction to Milwaukee-based producer, Gary Tanin, who worked with Spann on his 1st and 2nd solo records, Time, Time, Time, Time, Time, and Beautiful Man From Mars and now on his 3rd upcoming release Propaganda Man.   The album took two years to complete and is different from his last, in that it faces social issues head on and does not shy away from addressing thorny social conundrums. Several guests appear while Spann provides lead vocals, piano, keyboards, guitar and bass. Cecil Robbington provides drums

  • The Week In Reviews - - The Fraudprophets New Album Poptosis

    31/05/2019 Duración: 46min

    Fraudprophets (www.fraudprophets.com), a collaboration between multi-instrumentalist and composer Sean Halley and A-list drummer Nate Morton (seen weekly on NBC’s ‘The Voice’), are ecstatic to announce the release of their debut album ‘Poptosis’ on June 3, 2019. The new record seamlessly blends elements of jazz, pop, rock, country and 70’s fusion into tunes that feel uniquely natural together, a result of the long-standing bond between Morton and Halley and their decades-long careers on stage and in the studio…and the gin. “It probably isn’t the best way to go about it, but we randomly started this whole thing one night by drinking cocktails to a click track”, said Morton. “Not having a plan ended up being a real blessing, as the snippets of music that came out of that evening were free-spirited and fun, and they were infused with personality and our love for each other as musical dorks.” Halley continues, “Nate and I love just about every kind of music, so nothing was off limits if it was a style we felt co

  • The Week In Reviews - The Hillbilly Moon Explosion

    19/04/2019 Duración: 41min

    The Hillbilly Moon Explosion are a European band who just came to the US to play their own unique version of Rockabilly to Americans. They've long held the US in their hearts. Way back in 2006 they traveled to San Diego to record an album 'All Grown Up' with producer Mark Neill (Black Keys). That track was their first duet with Mark 'Sparky' Phillips, the wayward singer from Welsh psychobilly band Demented Are Go. His well-worn vocals contrasting with the sultry Emanuela Hutter made the pairing one that had to be repeated on their next two albums.

  • The Week In Reviews - Binky Philips And The Planets

    09/04/2019 Duración: 01h02min

    As amazing as it sounds, NYC rock legends Binky Philips & The Planets after 47 years will be releasing their debut album “Established 1972 NYC” on April 26th! David Fricke of Rolling Stone once described  the band as “the best rock & roll band I never saw or heard.”  Says Binky, “Over many years, I have written about ten albums worth of songs. None of them ever got past the demo stage. Perhaps, rightly so. It's fitting that The Planets' first ever true full-blown-production album, 'Established 1972 NYC', is comprised of the best songs I have ever written. The brand of music we play could be called Unhyphenated Rock. It's straight up. It's hard. It's real. We are not Pop. We are not Metal. We are not Punk. We are not Retro. We are Rock & Roll.”
