episode Tiger In The Rain cover

Tiger In The Rain

In this episode Veronica and I discuss the fourth record I made for Warner Brothers, “Tiger in the Rain,” which was recorded in the Fall of 1978 and released early the following year. I worked with Producer/Arranger John Simon on this record and John wrote the most beautiful charts for the project.                                      Circa 1978, sitting underneath the appletree, playing the 1926 Francisco Simplicio.                                      Photo: Claudia Franks The title song was inspired by one of Henri Rousseau’s paintings called “Tropical Storm with a Tiger.” The National Gallery in London was kind enough to let us reproduce the painting on the album cover. I’d like to dedicate this episode to Dom and Sandie Cortese and the Pizzarelli Family.                                           Tiger In The Rain album cover features "Tiger in a Tropcial Storm"                                         an oil painting by Henri Rousseau.

episode Antonio's Song cover

Antonio's Song

phote: Claudia Franks Meeting Antonio Carlos Jobim and spending time with him in New York and Rio was one of the peak experiences of my musical life. Among other things in this episode, Veronica and I discuss how he invited me down to Rio to record some of the songs on “Sleeping Gypsy,” and what an inspiration it was for me just to get to know him. Whenever I was around Jobim I always felt like I was reclined at the feet of a Master. His songwriting genius and the lasting beauty of his canon of compositions is, in my view, kind of unparalleled.  I started to write “Antonio’s Song” a few days after I met him in New York in the Fall of 1975. He godfathered our visit to Rio the following year and suggested a recording studio and musicians we might use. I was also a fan of Joao Donato, another great songwriter, and he joined us in the studio too.        I want to dedicate this episode to lifelong friends I met as a sophomore at UCLA (shortly after the Invention of the Wheel), Jackie and Richard Derwingson. Richard taught me how to play “The Girl from Ipanema.”

episode White Boy Lost in the Blues cover

White Boy Lost in the Blues

"White Boy Lost in the Blues" My career as a songwriter enjoyed a great leap forward when I was lucky enough to work on the “Sonny and Brownie” album. In addition to “White Boy Lost in the Blues,” I wrote two other  songs for the project and played on several cuts. Needless to say, working in the studio with them was quite a thrill, especially for an absolute greenhorn like myself. The entire experience made me feel hopeful that I might be able to have a future in music. And to this day when I think about Sonny and Brownie and replay those memories, I still feel so grateful that they liked my tunes and recorded them. And I’d also like to express my thanks to Lyle Lovett who recorded the song more recently and whose terrific version breathed new life into it.  These photos, taken by the great Norman Seef, are from the album artwork.  Brownie McGhee - photographer Norman Seeff Sonny Terry - photographer Norman Seeff

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
