Memphis Deep

This is the last episode for 2018. We sat down with Bob Kelsey, Leroy Clay and David Dunn who make up the band Memphis Deep. A fair amount of music is in this episode plus some good stories along the way.

Also, since this is the last show of 2018, I can't help what the next year holds for all of us. What I can tell you is that there will be a cool little thing extra coming From Radioland in 2019.



NEXT WEEK: The return of Tlaxica this time with Pope and Zeke Johnson celebrates the holidays.

Stay tuned...

Tlaxica

I keep meeting new people in Memphis that moved here because of the music scene. That's pretty cool. Tlaxica, from Tlaxica & Pope did the same thing. She sat down with me in the studio to talk about why she came to Memphis and she managed to sneak onto the air some cuts from their forthcoming EP.

Plus, she is fairly well known in the gospel scene and we talked a little about that as well.

The government may be kind of shut down, but we aren't.



NEXT WEEK: Memphis Deep

Stay tuned...

Danuel Gales, Eric Gales, Singa B & Robert Allen Parker

This was a fun night. Danuel Gales was celebrating his birthday and chose Radio Memphis to do the celebrating. Which was a good thing because his brother, Eric Gales called in and we had a chat with him about an upcoming show here in Memphis. We also learned he likes apple pie. It's pretty funny how that came about.

Later, Robert Allen Parker sat down and talked about his latest record and the project he is working on now. Plus, you'll hear some cuts off the new CD.



NEXT WEEK: Tlaxica & Pope - minus Pope.

Stay tuned...

Brother Boulevard & Individual 1

I think it is only a matter of time before someone names their band Individual 1. That is, if it hasn't happened already. Nevertheless, I do talk a little about the latest revelations regarding said Individual 1.

Also, a great time with another brand new act, Brother Boulevard. You'll hear a conversation with Kyle Roberts and Gabriel Brown about their new act and you'll hear some songs from them.



NEXT WEEK: Danuel Gales, Eric Gales & Robert Allen Parker

Stay tuned...

Carla Thomas, Willie Hall & Vanese Thomas - Dropping Bombs

The musical influence of the Thomas family in Memphis is enormous. Rufus Thomas was a true showman. His children learned that craft from the best. Carla Thomas scored 2 major hits in the 1960s with Gee Whiz and B-A-B-Y (the latter showing up recently on the Baby Driver soundtrack) along the way, the time spent at STAX was important for Carla.

Also, our great friend Willie Hall joined the conversation to talk about his days with STAX and Isaac Hayes and Booker T. & The MGs. And then Carla's sister, Vanese got on the air and dropped a bomb.



NEXT WEEK: Kyle & Gabe are Brother Boulevard

Stay tuned...
