In this episode, British-born musician, producer and sound engineer, Jeep Hook, tells us about how the music business has changed since the early 1980’s. He’ll give us some tidbits on what it was like to tour with the band Talk Talk, and how his journey went from England to L.A. and landed in the hip hop capital of the South. There’s some notes about his jazz singer first wife who had several hit songs, high jinks that happened while on the road, and a couple of celebrity interactions. And he’ll give us a healthy drink recipe, which we'll enhance with a little vodka. ( Can't leave it too healthy, you know....)
