Long time friend and musical phenom Mark Turnbull joins Beth and Steve to talk about their shared history, all the way back to Steve and Mark meeting on the basketball court at Newport Harbor High School in 1964.  Lots of great memories (ditching school to ride the roller coaster at the Pike in Long Beach), and wonderful recordings of songs from Mark including some that he wrote for the Band Honk.  Fun with a certified musical treasure.

Beth and Steve prepare for a protest.  Music from Dylan, Buffalo Springfield, Richard Stekol, Sam Cooke, Stevie Wonder, Bob Marley, Marvin Gaye, John Prine and...

After Steve took over the show for 2 weeks to dedicate music to his brother, Beth gets her revenge.  She leafed through her 45s collection and grabbed some stuff that she loved back in the 60s and early 70s. If you needed proof that she is let's say...unusual, here is solid confirmation.  At the same time you might find her quite attractive as Steve does.  Well, not exactly like Steve does.

Following last week's show dedicated to my brother that featured the music that was infused into our DNA as we grew up in a house full of music, we continue the journey.  This episode focuses more on the more obscure, shall I say "hipper" stuff that we were privileged to be immersed in.  It is mostly jazz with a bit of folk to round things out.  Pretty danged fun and I find it fascinating but of course, I would.

This episode features my (Steve's) tribute to my brother Mike.  We grew up in a wonderful time and place with fabulous parents...a thing at the time I thought to be "normal" but now realize is somewhat unusual.  Mike, (who is six years older than me) and I grew up in a home surrounded by music and creativity.  Our father was gifted beatnick jazz piano player on weekends and a buttoned up FBI agent during the week. Lots of music parties and constant jazz coming off the turntable infused us with a musical sensiblilty that continues to this today. Songs and some stories of our upbringing make up what turns out to be episode one of this journey.

The Wood Brothers are by far our very favorite band from the last 20 years.  If you are disappointed with the shallowness and and self consicous over production of music this could redeem music for you.  Highly recommended!

This is a particlarly funny week, whacky conversations and music.  Check it out when you are driving or trying to wake up or go to sleep.  Also good if your in an MRI tube.

54 years together and feeling incredibly lucky to have found each other.  Just having fun on our show as we usually do, bathing in the glory of gratitude and playing music we love.

At the height of the early Covid scare Jack was nearing the end of his life with lung cancer.  His long lost son came onto the scene and convinced a lot of us that Jack's unrecorded songs about his favorite jazz legends needed to be recorded.  Everyone said "Damn the virus" and pulled together to get these timeless songs laid down for posterity.  Well here it is 5 years later and posterity ain't enough...people need to hear this incredible stuff.  Here 'tis

Beth is out of town and Steve has to lift this whole thing by his lonesome.  I pulled out a lot of wacky music from films and various projects, most of which never made it to a successful release for whatever reason.  Includes a brand new one from Beth and Steve's upcoming album as well as a variety of original songs and instrumentals...like a song consisting of birds in the jungle of Papua, a terribly wrong attempt at new age music, Steve's famous Hot Wheels commercial, Beth's song about our goldfish that tried to fly but crashed on the floor, Jason Feddy singing amazing grace.  And that's just a little sample
