My first guest is a gentleman named Ray Williams. Ray has been in the music industry for over 5 decades and has had an incredible career. I met Ray a few years ago and have wanted to have a conversation with him ever since to hear his story.

If you saw the movie Rocketman, then you've seen part of Ray's story. Ray was the man who discovered Elton John and also the man who teamed Elton John up with his now longtime friend and lyricist Bernie Taupin. Together those two men have written and recorded some of the most classic songs of our time. Charlie Rowe played Ray in the movie.

Ray has also worked with other artists and in the film industry. Ray also runs a music licensing company, Crumbs Music.

So take a listen. I hope you enjoy the show! Please remember to subscribe, rate, and review! Check out my site for the latest Behind The Mic blog post.
