Maybe the name Jerry Hey doesn't ring any bells for you. But, you've been listening to songs that Jerry has played his trumpet on or has arranged for probably your entire life. He became one of Quincy Jones' main studio guys. He arranged strings on "Billie Jean," played on Brothers Johnson and Earth Wind & Fire and George Benson albums, that's him on Dolly's "9 to 5," and he's been on a ton of TV and movie soundtracks (yep, that's him on the CHiPs theme song). And, since I'm reengineering the "Seven Degrees of Kevin Bacon" to "Seven Degrees of Dan Fogelberg"....that's Jerry on the flugelhorn for the "Longer" solo. Guess how many takes it took to nail that solo?

Jon Lamoreaux of the Hustle Podcast joins us to dissect “Rio” from Duran Duran.  It’s a travesty that it took us this long to discuss this classic album from the early days of MTV!

Maybe we should just add Jon as a permanent co-host?

Recorded while I was on the road for work in Newport News, VA. Anyone been there?

Oh yeah…and LISTENER SCORES!

The band gets back together. Shawn Brown & Kasey Anderson join us once again to nerd out about some tunes and this time it's NOT a Seattle related band. We discuss "Hard Candy" from Counting Crows. And Dan Fogelberg. But mostly Counting Crows.

Big kudos to Jon for always being on the bench so to speak. You know what happens when we have a Jon episode...yep...guest reschedule. We did this one on two days notice and we didn't skip a beat as it's an album we've been listening to for 40 years.

We have an unanimous top song! What?!? Any guesses what song?

And, you're welcome that I didn't include a sound clip for "The Theme from Mantrap."

From Ben: I fly solo for this interview with Mindy Smith. I could have used Wayne to tell me that my microphone wasn't working properly (it might be time for a new laptop). Mindy and I talk about her excellent new album "Quiet Town" and other topics like being Geminis, Neilson Hubbard (who produced "Quiet Town"), Susan Ashton, writing sad songs, reading the comments, breaking the rules (and how it paid off).  I love her picks for 5 favorite albums including The Sundays and another guest talks about "Poses" from Rufus Wainwright!

Songs include (from "Quiet Town" unless otherwise noted):

Jericho

Every Once in a While

One Moment More (from debut titled "One Moment More")

What Love Can Do (from "Stupid Love")

Something To Write in Stone
