The Lost Hour and BJ Banks with Paul Crum

Being a songwriter is an art in and of itself. I recently sat down with BJ Banks of the Bartlett Songwriter's Alliance who brought along musician Paul Crum. We talked a bit about the art of writing a song as well as the performance aspects of such matters. We had a pretty big time with a lot of laughs.

Road Trippin' and an Evening with Booker Brown

I was recently in Texas (long story) and had a bit of time to myself on the way back. It's an 11 hour drive. During all this time, I started noticing a couple of interesting patterns out there. Apparently, billboard advertising space must be had on the cheap since most of the one's I saw were outdated or had "Advertise Here" on them.

There is something else rather interesting out there. A lot of porn shops in the middle of nowhere.

Plus, Jeff and I spent some time with one of the greats. Booker Brown. He had with him Albert Sutherland on guitar. Then, all of a sudden, Willie Hall showed up to play some drums.

Jon Brewer - Monochrome: Black, White & Blue

If you are into documentaries and frankly, who isn't? There is a fantastic three part series on Amazon Prime right now. It's about the history of American music. You would think you knew a lot about this sort of thing. However, there are some aspects of the subject you probably haven't considered.

The Producer and Director, Jon Brewer called in to the show and we talked about this great piece of film.

Also, some social media mayhem.

Plus, music from The RV's.

Going For The Bronze with Liz Kinnmark

You might have been watching the Olympics. I certainly have. What is funny about that is the simple reality I have never been a big fan of this spectacle. Admittedly, this has been very entertaining and quite a good bit of fun to enjoy. The politics of it and all.

Also in this show, Liz Kinnmark, The Bendy Beast herself makes her second appearance on the show to talk about an upcoming event (which has already happened but go with me on this) and to talk about some other naughty fun.

If that isn't enough, music from Airside.

You Had A Stroke, Fool

It's always a great time when Vince Johnson & The Plantation Allstars roll into the Radio Memphis studios. It was magical night of conversation and performance and we recorded their appearance. Vince had a stroke recently and he's recovered very quickly and is at the top of his game. He and the Allstars put on quite a performance and they talk about a new album in the works.

Also in this episode, I went to a very different show and it has something to do with next week's guest.
