I don't know where this came from but it sounds fresh since I haven't listened to it for 6 or more years!

Part one is here: https://soundcloud.com/randulo/bruce-conte-part-1

After we met in Fresno, Bruce went on to play with Tower of Power and many other very famous artists. Today he's recording his own material, which you can check out at http://BruceConte.com.

This is the second part and I wanted to add some music to the intro and end, but I realized that most of what Bruce has played on would be a copyright problem, so instead, I added my tune, Yo-Yo from a recent rehearsal, because it's based on a rhythm guitar riff.

Larry Taylor, bass; Stephen Hodges, drums; Bill Bixler, soprano sax

When I started talking to Bruce Conte via text a few months ago, I decided it was time we talked via Skype. After we met in Fresno, Bruce went on to play with Tower of Power and many other very famous artists. Today he's recording his own material, which you can check out at http://BruceConte.com.

I asked if we could record an "interview". Bruce needs no prompting, I mostly sat back and listened to him tell the story of what he's been up to for the last 40 years, which is how long it's been since we last spoke.

In 2010 I wrote this and used it for the intro of the VUC podcast. A while back I watched the hilarious Axis of Awesome video which makes fun of all the tunes written on this chord sequence.

Emil Ivov is the founder of Jitsi and Jitsi Video Bridge. We got together for a yerar-end chat to talk about life in Austin, Texas (moving from Strasbourg, France), the acquisition of his company and life in general.

Another installment of on hold Hell, featuring Allison Smith and by coincidence, Andy Smith.

30 second illicit phone recording. Neither party was advised. Use with caution.

Allison Smith stops by to talk about how she started and, what's she's seen along the way and what she's doing now. She began on local radio and soon moved on to voice prompts for Interactive Voice Response menus.
