And it's time for another edition of Danny and Tim's
Music Scene. Always eclectic and electric and energetic as usual,
And unfortunately we have a couple of passings to talk
about of very significant artists. One who lived along and
fruitful life and another who his life was cut off a
(01:00):
little bit too short. We'll talk about that. Maybe a
little backlash time about around this mega, mega mega and
admirable career of Taylor Swift. We'll talk about that a
little bit. Speaking of a little backlash, we've talked a
couple times recently on this podcast about Bruce Springsteen fatigue,
(01:23):
and this in the context of the fact that his
new biopic movie is coming out starring the Man who
stars and the Bear looks to really be putting a
pretty good star turn on this. I don't know what
the movie will be like, but we'll see about that.
Big stars who can be explained or not explained, or
(01:43):
enjoyed or questioned, maybe fitting into that category. As Chappelle
ron she do sixty thousand fans recently to Kansas City,
so that certainly is noteworthy. An article in The New
York Times associated seventies FM music and the song The
Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, which is having its fiftieth
(02:05):
anniversary this year, the song by Gordon Lightfoot, which I'm
not a fan of the song. I'm a fan of
Gordon Lightfoot, but it's an interesting backstory as well, and
we'll talk a little bit about that and the fact
that it was a news event that was turned into
a song pretty darn quickly. And we'll start it off
with tributes to a couple of great artists. It comes
your way. Next, it's Arts and Lifestyle Wednesday, presented by
(02:26):
Strategic Partners Inc. And Danny and Tim's music scene.

contact us at Danny at Danny clinkscale dot com. Look
forward to working with you. Welcome back, And just yesterday,
far too young, we lost the neo soul singer DiAngelo.
He had been battling cancer for a long time and
passes away at the age of fifty one, came on
the scene with a big bang, with some music that
(05:48):
was fresh and new and retroactive at the same time
retro tribute, and also with his glowering good looks and presence,
which belied the fact that he was really a person
who cared about his art. I enjoyed the songs that
I heard by DiAngelo. I cannot say that I was
(06:09):
a fan or anything like that, but it kind of
hit me a little bit when he passed. He had
been sick for a long time, so this was not
a surprise. But still, to lose an artist who really
sold millions of records and impacted people and was really
seemingly kind of a cool guy at the age of
fifty one, that's pretty tragic.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
Tim To back up, the whole neo soul thing just
kind of evolved and exploded in the late nineties and
into the early two thousands, and he his first record
came out in two thousand and so he would have
been twenty five.
Speaker 7 (06:44):
Maybe he was. He looked like an Adonis and.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
He posed for the cover of this record, which is
part of a video he put out, and I mean,
he's just ripped his six pack is not like six
twelve months, twenty ounces. He's like, you couldn't help but
go whoa. So that got a lot of attention. But
the music with then was just so glorious, so different,
(07:12):
and he became swept into this neo soul, you know,
the wave that included people like Josh Stone and Maxwell
and Rafael Sadiq and anyway, Alicia Keys like and yeah,
so which I think he kind of ended up resenting
(07:36):
that there was so much attention on the video and
what he felt was less on the music. He was
a little grounded in and more than just making money quickly.
He would say later that I was never I never
didn't vibe myself as a neil soul guy. I made
black music, That's what I made. And so yeah, he
(07:56):
was almost use. He came out. He sort of retreated
for a while, I think, and gathered himself. He did
another tour and he came to the Midland. It was recently,
but you know, he did not look like he used to,
and I think that might have been the point.
Speaker 7 (08:09):
But he also might have been sick, so I don't
really know, but he was.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
He was an eminent moment and that movement, it produced
a lot of stars. Some of them are still, you know,
pertinent and relevance. Alicia Keys certainly is. But it was
a moment where this was a this was these were
artists who were taking soul music that existed in the
(08:36):
late sixties and seventies and giving it a contemporary twist.
But like his point was, I wasn't I was trying
to fit into a pigeonhole or anything. I was just
making music that was the result of what I'd heard
growing up and how I could take all that and
make it my own.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
And that he did, And yeah, he'll be missed because
he had had a sort of a comeback and probably
would have come back again. He's young enough that he
was going to do tours and had a wide array
of fans and everything else. And that certainly fits into
another artist who just passed, one who actually was lived
(09:17):
into his eighties, and that is John Lodge, the bass
player for the Moody Blues. Moody Blues who are I'm
a big fan of the Moody Blues. I understand that
some people it's not their type of thing. Their music
bordered on spiritual at times, and that was a turn
off for people a little bit. There's no doubt though,
(09:38):
when you listen to their best songs and if you're
listening for the bass lines, they're out of this world good.
And Justin Hayward is the singer songwriter and he Lodge
wrote most of them.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
I mean if Knights on White Satin was all over
the radios and late junior high high school. But as
young as I was, I was a student of to
know that that poem at the end of ear in
the middle of knights always sattin. We used to make
fun of it. We used to because it was just
so like whatever. But the larger point is, yes, they
(10:15):
were very orchestral.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
They were.
Speaker 6 (10:19):
It was kind of like I make this comparison warily
just like air supply. But it was positive music and
it was uplifting and their harmonies were amazing, and they
were British, which you know, gave them a little bit
more credibility.
Speaker 7 (10:39):
I like their music.
Speaker 6 (10:40):
I had a roommate who adored them, and he and
I lived in my roommate and I lived together for
three years, so I heard a lot of Moodies and.
Speaker 7 (10:47):
Their music means something to me personally.
Speaker 6 (10:49):
I saw them at the Midland once whatever version of
them was out at that point, and yeah, I still
play them.
Speaker 7 (10:56):
Their place resonates.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
It's not I don't know how influential they were, but
they definitely had a place in a lot of people's music,
you know, libraries.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
They definitely do like many artists of that type. I
don't take it all the way from I don't know
Dan Folgelberg to others. I generally like their songs that
where they move more into rock and roll, and Justin
Hayward is a fantastic player, and and John Lodge is
a great player too. But songs like I'm just a
singer in a rock and roll band or Ride my
(11:31):
Seesaw I mean, are and have great guitar riffs and
they really rock.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
Oh yeah, that's a great song. That's one of my favorites.
But they also wrote, you know, really sweet ballads, which
I'm a sucker for. And yeah, they were just so
influenced by the British rock and British pop in the
early sixties, and they had their own sound. They were
they had their own you know, personality definition And I
(12:00):
still play them. It feels like I'm listening to something
from a long time ago. But you know, that's what
I feel like when I listened to the Clency Brothers.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
Moody blues are kind of like that.
Speaker 6 (12:10):
It reminds me of good moments in my childhood adolescents,
and the only time myst of them live.
Speaker 7 (12:18):
It was great. It was fun.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
And Justin Hayward still tours and plays, and I know
people have seen him in recently. He's almost ninety now
and he's quite good. I watched an interview with him
with the YouTuber Rick Beto, who does great interviews with guitarists,
and that was super interesting as well. So John Lodge
rest in peace for him. So a couple of great
artists of different generations have been lost at different times
(12:42):
in their life. But it's great to be able always
as usual, to be able to pay tribute to them,
and of course fitting into that category. But several years
past is Gordon Lightfoot, and I know you've read a
lot about the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald his surprisingly
hit song, which really is kind of a seat or
an oral poem or whatever you want to talk about it.
(13:04):
I am no fan of the song, I like many
Gordon Lightfoot songs, but it was a great success and
it tells of a great story.
Speaker 7 (13:12):
Yeah, the story of the ship thinking.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
Like I mentioned to you before we started this was
I was living on the Canadian border, right on the
most upper northwest corner of New York State, in a
little village called Youngstown, about thirty miles north of Buffalo.
We could see Toronto's the toront skyline across the lake
if it was clear. So the Canadian the media and
(13:35):
culture we got in our in our home, in our TV.
And I so, I was a senior in high school
when this thing happened, and it was probably a big
deal in Canada because it was on the border, in
the middle of Lake Superior. And it's become and within
I don't know, a year or less lesson here.
Speaker 7 (13:55):
We're left.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
It wrote this epic poem. You know, it's class fight
as like a shanty, but it's an It's an epic
poem the way like the I mean, or I think
of bigger songs like American Pie or Bob Dylan's Lily
Rosemary and the Jacca Hearts, or yeah, it's just even
(14:17):
The Boxer by Paul Simmons kind of like that. But
his songwriting is so much more interesting. It's entertaining all
the way through. But it's like the Charge of the Librigade,
which was an epic poem that I read too many
times in high school.
Speaker 7 (14:29):
But so he's telling the story.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
He writes the poem and then figures out a melody and.
Speaker 7 (14:34):
It's it's drab.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
It's just like a morphine trip. But I read the
lyrics today without listening to it. It's really he was
an astute lyricist. So but it's kind of like you
listen to it once and then you get it. You
don't need you know, it's like saying a skit on
Saturday Night Live. You just listened to it fifteen times
(14:58):
or watch it. It's like, Okay, I get it, this
was bad. But you know, the fiftieth anniversary of this
sinking comes up next month, so there's a lot of
not celebrations. You don't celebrate that, but you memorialize it.
And so there's a lot going on in what I learned.
Was there so many museums attributed or you know about
(15:22):
that twenty nine people died, And I've read so.
Speaker 7 (15:26):
Much about how many how many.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
Boat sinkings and deaths occur on the Great Lakes and
over the past, you know, hundreds of years. It's been
in the thousands, So this one was a mystery.
Speaker 7 (15:41):
They don't know what happened.
Speaker 6 (15:42):
There was a there were boats out there not far
from them that not only didn't sink, they they participated
in the search and rescue, which there was none. So
but I'm just saying New York Times has a couple
of stories about this, this upcoming thing, and I'll just
sleep leave us with this, because as most good websites do,
(16:04):
they will lead you.
Speaker 7 (16:04):
To other stories that have been written about this. And
there was one.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
I just read the headline and it said Chargers coach
Jim Harbaugh uses wreck of Edmund Fitzgerald to inspire his team.
Speaker 7 (16:18):
Wow, I think only Jim Harba would do that. I
don't know it was.
Speaker 6 (16:24):
I didn't read it because I'd read enough about this song.
But I may go back and see how that's kind
of a stretch.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
But yeah, I'm trying to I'm struggling right now to
think of how he would use that song we put
him to sleep as a lullaby. Maybe if he played
the song.
Speaker 6 (16:44):
The story is like they that song we're not sinking.
I don't know I could see him doing anything.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Yeah, maybe something.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
I respect him a lot. He's a weird duck.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Note he is indeed a Gordon Lightfoot gave us a
lot of great music. I don't think that fits into it,
but it is a great tale and certainly we'll hear
a lot about it. And mysteries mysteries unraveled are fascinating
to people, that's for sure. We'll try to unravel a.
Speaker 7 (17:11):
Couple of go ahead, no, go ahead, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
We'll try to unravel a couple other mysteries coming up
as we continue on with Arts and Lifestyle Wednesday, presented

Speaker 2 (19:36):
Welcome back. And my wife and I were talking yesterday
at lunch as she had put on a presentation in
Lawrence for her business, and we were talking about and
Taylor Swift came up. We'll talk about that in a
minute or two. And sometimes you don't quite know why
and if and how fame comes to certain people, but
(19:58):
right now, certainly one of them. Famous pop artist in
the world is Chappelle. Ron came to Kansas City, drew
sixty thousand people to a show in Kansas City, or
two shows, I can't remember which one it was. And
she was an introspective Taylor Swift type of singer, went
to Nashville and then completely changed into the image that
(20:19):
she has now, which is pink Pony club and all
that kind of stuff. I find her interesting. I find
some of her music interesting. She clearly is interesting. Two
thousands of Kansas Citians.
Speaker 7 (20:32):
I love some of her music.
Speaker 6 (20:33):
It is the kind of pop that I can't resist.
In her pop sensibility, I don't I haven't explored her
enough to know what the songwriting protocol is or whatever,
but I listen.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
I've listened to your music. I love it.
Speaker 6 (20:47):
I watched so many people I know we're there over
the weekend, and some of them were adults, you know,
with their teenagers, which I've done that. It's one of
the greatest experiences you can have, is take your kid
to see whatever it is. But when it's music, it's
it's it feels more personal to me. So that was
(21:08):
that was joyous, and I was like, I kind of
miss being in that environment. But then when I got
the wider shots. I'm like, yeah, but I'm not doing
that anymore.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
My kids are adults. But so she's connecting on a level.
Speaker 6 (21:19):
But also the visuals I got from on stage were
just spectacular, like in the level of Taylor Swift and
in Lady Gaga, Like just the visual stimulation combined with
she writes music that just that just appeals to your
like primitive appeal to music and a lot of you know,
(21:41):
anthems and jumping around and and power to anyone whoever
you are. You know, it's it was. I mean, she's
she's important for now. I don't know how long this
will last because we're in a different culture. Well she
lasts as long as Taylor Swift, or does she even
wants to. I don't know, but she's a moment right now.
(22:03):
I think it's a significant moment.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I agree with you. I think it is also, And
like you said, you don't know whether she'll reinvent herself
ten more times like Lady Gaga has successfully, or if
she'll just kind of ride this out and we'll see
how she evolves. Seems more the former to me that
she would be likely to do. But Taylor Swift has
done this now for well nigh up on two decades
(22:29):
being an incredible success and maybe finally, I mean the
phrase of jumping the shark has jumped the shark. But
maybe there's a couple signs that this is going to happen,
or they'll be a little lull, or maybe she'll take
a bit of a hiatus because she's going to get married. Obviously,
her new show, The Life of a Show Girl, I
know in the Guardian interview review I read it was
(22:52):
only a two star review and there on a five
star system, so that's not a very good review. There's
a little backlash to the fact that she puts out
so much extra content, and maybe you is say that
that's just a money making vehicle. I don't think this
is a big blowback. We're both fans of her as
a business woman and a person who's impacted people's lives positively,
and as a Chiefs fan too. But maybe a little
(23:15):
blip here for Taylor and that hasn't happened too often.
Speaker 7 (23:18):
Well, this is my take on it. I think this
is her.
Speaker 6 (23:23):
You know.
Speaker 7 (23:24):
I started to read an article in The Atlantic.
Speaker 6 (23:26):
I didn't get into it much, but their point was,
like she said a point in her life where what
does she have to prove? I remember when I wrote
a review of the show at Arrowhead the Aris tour,
one of my conclusive points was like, where does she
go from here? How is she going to top this?
Like she's always topped everything. And my point I was like,
(23:49):
she can't write about breakups anymore. She is in love
with a man of her life, and I think this
is her showing like, yeah, it's everything, including this sex.
Then if it's her walking away point, that's fine. I've
seen this with twice when I was working at the Start.
You know, I interviewed Britney Spears when she was at
(24:11):
a point where she was writing about more sexual things
and not just you know breakups in junior high, including
a song about masturbation. They're like, what, how do you what? Well,
she's twenty four now, like they were alone. And then
when Miley Cyrus came out after totally you know, walking
(24:32):
away from whoever she was Hannah Montana, I think, and
did a show where she was climbing a stripper pole,
but it had been expressed that yeah, she's in her
twenties now, she's not Hannah Montana anymore. This is where
she's going and get the album, read the lyrics and
read the So I think this was her. Taylor Swift
(24:55):
is in her thirties, Like I think she has bigger
things on her mind. I don't know what she needs
to do that she hasn't done, but I expect that
somedays she'll put out a record about marital bliss or
divorce or something. But right right now, she's until with
another life, I think, and I respect her for that,
(25:16):
and I think this is her exclamation point times ten, like, yeah,
I'm during another chapter of my life, another face.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
We'll see what that chapter brings. And as mentioned in
the open, we've talked about Springsteen fatigue. He's put out
documentaries and one man shows and books and everything else.
And now, I mean he didn't decide to do this,
but director Scott Cooper and writer Warren Zanes came up
with a book a movie about Springsteen, a biopic, and
(25:49):
he's been heavily involved with it. He's been on the
set and everything. It's called Delivery from Nowhere. It will
be coming out quite soon and it is one that
is starring So yeah, hold on a second gear. I'll
just give a couple more facts. It stars Jeremy Allen White,
who of course is the star of the Bear. He
was a non musician when he started this project. Is
(26:11):
sort of a Timothy shallow May type of thing. And
I've saw him interviewed on CBS Sunday Morning. He was
interesting and seemed like a good guy, and it looks
like he's got the moves in concert down, and I
think he's going to do a good job. I guess
I'm a little more intrigued because I've sort of walked
away from so much of this Bruce content. But we'll
(26:33):
see what happens with this film.
Speaker 6 (26:34):
My pushback is, I mean, for the last how many
years of his life, Bruce has been a multi, multi,
mega wealthy superstar, So what's part of their life are
they talking about? And I already know enough about the
early part to not be interested in this. Like I
(26:55):
was scrolling through music documentaries on one of my portals
and it's like this twenty twenty three documentary on Prince
the Life of Prince, like he's been gone thro Like
what are you going to show me that I don't know?
And it's like a seventy five minute documentary, Like I
think I probably know everything.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Right, and there's no there's no bigger Prince fan than you.
But there's no bigger Prince fan than you, so you
know if you're not, you.
Speaker 6 (27:22):
Know, like I would show me something like since he
died in his estate. Sorry, I've got I don't even
really want to invest in them because there's there's a
lot going on there whatever. Tom Petty is a four
and a half hour documentary out and then the Wildflower documentary, Like,
don't show me like, oh, we're going to do the
(27:44):
spend of Tom Petty documentary.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
No you're not.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
It's already out there, So I don't know. I'm you know,
I'll listen and wait to see. I just know that
like these bio whatever you talk where you call them
the fake documentaries or my kids and I are fans
of true crime, but when I get to those true
crime they're like they read, they reconstruct things, and there's actors.
(28:10):
It's like, man, right, there's too many live footage of
shit that's we want to sorry, stuff we want to see.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
No problem.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
Yeah, It's like it was.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
Like, I don't know, I don't I love Bruce Like
I told you before I heard of him the album
before Born to Run the Wild the Innocent, and I
think that was it. But I bought every one of
his records and I respect him as much as anyone.
The last time I saw him, which was like twenty,
I don't know, nineteen, he was in his late sixties, seventies,
(28:43):
it was a great show. So I'm just he's putting
everything out and it's all coming at me and I'm like,
I have what I need, so yes, but thank you
for being out there.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
Paul McCartney's still out there. God bless yes.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
And finally let's end up with something so that also
maybe reeks of a little, uh little user fatigue, and
that is Rolling Stone lists. And now, because we're actually
a quarter of the way through the new quote unquote millennium,
they've put out a list of the top songs of
the New Millennium, leaning toward the billboard charts and such.
(29:18):
And I guess it's another thing that's sort of you know,
chipsy on the back of the neck with you know,
somebody's thumb and says you're you're kind of old if
you don't like these songs. That's almost what they're saying.
Speaker 6 (29:32):
Okay, So so Rolling Stone has a has a list.
I don't remember what the number is, two fifty maybe
beyond and I and I I bit on this, you
know thing. I got on Facebook, like, oh, let me
see what the list is, and they just revealed the
top trend. So I went to the list and looked
(29:52):
at it and but it's it's I don't like we
talk about this. These are just they're just starting five,
like and I try not to bite on them, but
I did. And it's limited from songs for release from
two thousand and now, which is actually twenty six years.
But but a song by the Yaays is number two,
(30:16):
which when I read that, I was like, you're just
begging for a fight, you know, like, of the of
the best songs in the last twenty five years, they
have number two, like I don't. And I think Missy
Elliott had number one, which is fine, she's great, you know,
we can forget it's been a while. But in the
(30:36):
top ten, Taylor Swift was there for a song I
didn't recognize. That doesn't mean anything. I don't I'm not
my daughters. I don't know all her songs, right, she
probably deserved presence in the top ten, right, But there's
no like even like the White Stripes, who I can
take or leave like they were not revolutionary.
Speaker 7 (30:54):
Sorry, I don't know they were. I love Jack White, Yeah,
he's some rocks are but.
Speaker 6 (31:02):
There's no a Tel, there's no there's no Billie Eilish,
there's no Chapel Roane or Chapel Rome, there's no right. Yeah,
there are a lot of there's no outcast like Oats.
I thought they were like a bomb going off in
the early part. Like, there's none of them in the
top ten or even in the top twenty. So take
it for what it's worth, you know, look at it
(31:24):
if you want to get agitated and fight. I mean
radio heads in there. But it's also even like excluding
the bands that I like that we're not on the
Billboard charts, so I know my tastes are a little
different from larger population. But there's stuff that I like
that should have been on there, and it was left out.
So I'm going to promise myself again not to click
(31:47):
on that.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
I guess part of the problem with this is that
it's it's Rolling Stone. We always thought of Rolling Stone
as sort of the touchstone, you know, and on guard right,
and then you sort of feel like, well, Rolling Stone
was cool. They didn't end up dartic was about people
you didn't know that much about when it was hard
to find out people, and and you know they they
did the books of listenings of classic rock and rating
(32:09):
every record so and and now you you know, I
always check out their news because I do this podcast
it and it's just like US magazine or something. So
maybe that's the part of the disappointment is in Rolling Stone.
Isn't the quote unquote what we would have thought it was?
Speaker 6 (32:26):
The yea, yeah, yeah, I thought, wait, does this shoot?
Did I started to fifteen, We're going up to one? Like, no,
they were I like them. I've seen them. They're so incidental,
Like how do you pick?
Speaker 7 (32:40):
What are you doing?
Speaker 6 (32:41):
Like, yeah, that's like saying, you know, one of the greatest,
you know, one of the greatest sitcoms was something that
got canceled after half a year or I don't know.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Right exactly exactly.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
Well, I'll sam, it's good to get agitated about music
and embrace it and enjoy it. And I pay tribute
to those who are great, and maybe Tevis snicker at
those who are less great or at least in our mind,
but they still please millions and millions of people, and
we are people pleasers every couple of weeks and it's
all because of your contributions. Look forward to talking to
(33:14):
you in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 7 (33:16):
Sounds good, Danny, Bless the Angelotis Family.
Speaker 3 (33:18):
This is sad, Yeah, it is sad.

And it's time for another edition of Danny and Tim's
Music Scene. Always eclectic and electric and energetic as usual,
And unfortunately we have a couple of passings to talk
about of very significant artists. One who lived along and
fruitful life and another who his life was cut off a
(01:00):
little bit too short. We'll talk about that. Maybe a
little backlash time about around this mega, mega mega and
admirable career of Taylor Swift. We'll talk about that a
little bit. Speaking of a little backlash, we've talked a
couple times recently on this podcast about Bruce Springsteen fatigue,
(01:23):
and this in the context of the fact that his
new biopic movie is coming out starring the Man who
stars and the Bear looks to really be putting a
pretty good star turn on this. I don't know what
the movie will be like, but we'll see about that.
Big stars who can be explained or not explained, or
(01:43):
enjoyed or questioned, maybe fitting into that category. As Chappelle
ron she do sixty thousand fans recently to Kansas City,
so that certainly is noteworthy. An article in The New
York Times associated seventies FM music and the song The
Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald, which is having its fiftieth
(02:05):
anniversary this year, the song by Gordon Lightfoot, which I'm
not a fan of the song. I'm a fan of
Gordon Lightfoot, but it's an interesting backstory as well, and
we'll talk a little bit about that and the fact
that it was a news event that was turned into
a song pretty darn quickly. And we'll start it off
with tributes to a couple of great artists. It comes
your way. Next, it's Arts and Lifestyle Wednesday, presented by
(02:26):

forward to working with you. Welcome back, And just yesterday,
far too young, we lost the neo soul singer DiAngelo.
He had been battling cancer for a long time and
passes away at the age of fifty one, came on
the scene with a big bang, with some music that
(05:48):
was fresh and new and retroactive at the same time
retro tribute, and also with his glowering good looks and presence,
which belied the fact that he was really a person
who cared about his art. I enjoyed the songs that
I heard by DiAngelo. I cannot say that I was
(06:09):
a fan or anything like that, but it kind of
hit me a little bit when he passed. He had
been sick for a long time, so this was not
a surprise. But still, to lose an artist who really
sold millions of records and impacted people and was really
seemingly kind of a cool guy at the age of
fifty one, that's pretty tragic.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
Tim To back up, the whole neo soul thing just
kind of evolved and exploded in the late nineties and
into the early two thousands, and he his first record
came out in two thousand and so he would have
been twenty five.
Speaker 7 (06:44):
Maybe he was. He looked like an Adonis and.
Speaker 6 (06:48):
He posed for the cover of this record, which is
part of a video he put out, and I mean,
he's just ripped his six pack is not like six
twelve months, twenty ounces. He's like, you couldn't help but
go whoa. So that got a lot of attention. But
the music with then was just so glorious, so different,
(07:12):
and he became swept into this neo soul, you know,
the wave that included people like Josh Stone and Maxwell
and Rafael Sadiq and anyway, Alicia Keys like and yeah,
so which I think he kind of ended up resenting
(07:36):
that there was so much attention on the video and
what he felt was less on the music. He was
a little grounded in and more than just making money quickly.
He would say later that I was never I never
didn't vibe myself as a neil soul guy. I made
black music, That's what I made. And so yeah, he
(07:56):
was almost use. He came out. He sort of retreated
for a while, I think, and gathered himself. He did
another tour and he came to the Midland. It was recently,
but you know, he did not look like he used to,
and I think that might have been the point.
Speaker 7 (08:09):
But he also might have been sick, so I don't
really know, but he was.
Speaker 6 (08:15):
He was an eminent moment and that movement, it produced
a lot of stars. Some of them are still, you know,
pertinent and relevance. Alicia Keys certainly is. But it was
a moment where this was a this was these were
artists who were taking soul music that existed in the
(08:36):
late sixties and seventies and giving it a contemporary twist.
But like his point was, I wasn't I was trying
to fit into a pigeonhole or anything. I was just
making music that was the result of what I'd heard
growing up and how I could take all that and
make it my own.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
And that he did, And yeah, he'll be missed because
he had had a sort of a comeback and probably
would have come back again. He's young enough that he
was going to do tours and had a wide array
of fans and everything else. And that certainly fits into
another artist who just passed, one who actually was lived
(09:17):
into his eighties, and that is John Lodge, the bass
player for the Moody Blues. Moody Blues who are I'm
a big fan of the Moody Blues. I understand that
some people it's not their type of thing. Their music
bordered on spiritual at times, and that was a turn
off for people a little bit. There's no doubt though,
(09:38):
when you listen to their best songs and if you're
listening for the bass lines, they're out of this world good.
And Justin Hayward is the singer songwriter and he Lodge
wrote most of them.
Speaker 6 (09:52):
I mean if Knights on White Satin was all over
the radios and late junior high high school. But as
young as I was, I was a student of to
know that that poem at the end of ear in
the middle of knights always sattin. We used to make
fun of it. We used to because it was just
so like whatever. But the larger point is, yes, they
(10:15):
were very orchestral.
Speaker 3 (10:17):
They were.
Speaker 6 (10:19):
It was kind of like I make this comparison warily
just like air supply. But it was positive music and
it was uplifting and their harmonies were amazing, and they
were British, which you know, gave them a little bit
more credibility.
Speaker 7 (10:39):
I like their music.
Speaker 6 (10:40):
I had a roommate who adored them, and he and
I lived in my roommate and I lived together for
three years, so I heard a lot of Moodies and.
Speaker 7 (10:47):
Their music means something to me personally.
Speaker 6 (10:49):
I saw them at the Midland once whatever version of
them was out at that point, and yeah, I still
play them.
Speaker 7 (10:56):
Their place resonates.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
It's not I don't know how influential they were, but
they definitely had a place in a lot of people's music,
you know, libraries.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
They definitely do like many artists of that type. I
don't take it all the way from I don't know
Dan Folgelberg to others. I generally like their songs that
where they move more into rock and roll, and Justin
Hayward is a fantastic player, and and John Lodge is
a great player too. But songs like I'm just a
singer in a rock and roll band or Ride my
(11:31):
Seesaw I mean, are and have great guitar riffs and
they really rock.
Speaker 6 (11:37):
Oh yeah, that's a great song. That's one of my favorites.
But they also wrote, you know, really sweet ballads, which
I'm a sucker for. And yeah, they were just so
influenced by the British rock and British pop in the
early sixties, and they had their own sound. They were
they had their own you know, personality definition And I
(12:00):
still play them. It feels like I'm listening to something
from a long time ago. But you know, that's what
I feel like when I listened to the Clency Brothers.
Speaker 7 (12:09):
Moody blues are kind of like that.
Speaker 6 (12:10):
It reminds me of good moments in my childhood adolescents,
and the only time myst of them live.
Speaker 7 (12:18):
It was great. It was fun.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
And Justin Hayward still tours and plays, and I know
people have seen him in recently. He's almost ninety now
and he's quite good. I watched an interview with him
with the YouTuber Rick Beto, who does great interviews with guitarists,
and that was super interesting as well. So John Lodge
rest in peace for him. So a couple of great
artists of different generations have been lost at different times
(12:42):
in their life. But it's great to be able always
as usual, to be able to pay tribute to them,
and of course fitting into that category. But several years
past is Gordon Lightfoot, and I know you've read a
lot about the Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald his surprisingly
hit song, which really is kind of a seat or
an oral poem or whatever you want to talk about it.
(13:04):
I am no fan of the song, I like many
Gordon Lightfoot songs, but it was a great success and
it tells of a great story.
Speaker 7 (13:12):
Yeah, the story of the ship thinking.
Speaker 6 (13:14):
Like I mentioned to you before we started this was
I was living on the Canadian border, right on the
most upper northwest corner of New York State, in a
little village called Youngstown, about thirty miles north of Buffalo.
We could see Toronto's the toront skyline across the lake
if it was clear. So the Canadian the media and
(13:35):
culture we got in our in our home, in our TV.
And I so, I was a senior in high school
when this thing happened, and it was probably a big
deal in Canada because it was on the border, in
the middle of Lake Superior. And it's become and within
I don't know, a year or less lesson here.
Speaker 7 (13:55):
We're left.
Speaker 6 (13:55):
It wrote this epic poem. You know, it's class fight
as like a shanty, but it's an It's an epic
poem the way like the I mean, or I think
of bigger songs like American Pie or Bob Dylan's Lily
Rosemary and the Jacca Hearts, or yeah, it's just even
(14:17):
The Boxer by Paul Simmons kind of like that. But
his songwriting is so much more interesting. It's entertaining all
the way through. But it's like the Charge of the Librigade,
which was an epic poem that I read too many
times in high school.
Speaker 7 (14:29):
But so he's telling the story.
Speaker 6 (14:31):
He writes the poem and then figures out a melody and.
Speaker 7 (14:34):
It's it's drab.
Speaker 6 (14:37):
It's just like a morphine trip. But I read the
lyrics today without listening to it. It's really he was
an astute lyricist. So but it's kind of like you
listen to it once and then you get it. You
don't need you know, it's like saying a skit on
Saturday Night Live. You just listened to it fifteen times
(14:58):
or watch it. It's like, Okay, I get it, this
was bad. But you know, the fiftieth anniversary of this
sinking comes up next month, so there's a lot of
not celebrations. You don't celebrate that, but you memorialize it.
And so there's a lot going on in what I learned.
Was there so many museums attributed or you know about
(15:22):
that twenty nine people died, And I've read so.
Speaker 7 (15:26):
Much about how many how many.
Speaker 6 (15:30):
Boat sinkings and deaths occur on the Great Lakes and
over the past, you know, hundreds of years. It's been
in the thousands, So this one was a mystery.
Speaker 7 (15:41):
They don't know what happened.
Speaker 6 (15:42):
There was a there were boats out there not far
from them that not only didn't sink, they they participated
in the search and rescue, which there was none. So
but I'm just saying New York Times has a couple
of stories about this, this upcoming thing, and I'll just
sleep leave us with this, because as most good websites do,
(16:04):
they will lead you.
Speaker 7 (16:04):
To other stories that have been written about this. And
there was one.
Speaker 6 (16:09):
I just read the headline and it said Chargers coach
Jim Harbaugh uses wreck of Edmund Fitzgerald to inspire his team.
Speaker 7 (16:18):
Wow, I think only Jim Harba would do that. I
don't know it was.
Speaker 6 (16:24):
I didn't read it because I'd read enough about this song.
But I may go back and see how that's kind
of a stretch.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
But yeah, I'm trying to I'm struggling right now to
think of how he would use that song we put
him to sleep as a lullaby. Maybe if he played
the song.
Speaker 6 (16:44):
The story is like they that song we're not sinking.
I don't know I could see him doing anything.
Speaker 2 (16:49):
Yeah, maybe something.
Speaker 7 (16:50):
I respect him a lot. He's a weird duck.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
Note he is indeed a Gordon Lightfoot gave us a
lot of great music. I don't think that fits into it,
but it is a great tale and certainly we'll hear
a lot about it. And mysteries mysteries unraveled are fascinating
to people, that's for sure. We'll try to unravel a.
Speaker 7 (17:11):
Couple of go ahead, no, go ahead, Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
We'll try to unravel a couple other mysteries coming up

at lunch as she had put on a presentation in
Lawrence for her business, and we were talking about and
Taylor Swift came up. We'll talk about that in a
minute or two. And sometimes you don't quite know why
and if and how fame comes to certain people, but
(19:58):
right now, certainly one of them. Famous pop artist in
the world is Chappelle. Ron came to Kansas City, drew
sixty thousand people to a show in Kansas City, or
two shows, I can't remember which one it was. And
she was an introspective Taylor Swift type of singer, went
to Nashville and then completely changed into the image that
(20:19):
she has now, which is pink Pony club and all
that kind of stuff. I find her interesting. I find
some of her music interesting. She clearly is interesting. Two
thousands of Kansas Citians.
Speaker 7 (20:32):
I love some of her music.
Speaker 6 (20:33):
It is the kind of pop that I can't resist.
In her pop sensibility, I don't I haven't explored her
enough to know what the songwriting protocol is or whatever,
but I listen.
Speaker 7 (20:46):
I've listened to your music. I love it.
Speaker 6 (20:47):
I watched so many people I know we're there over
the weekend, and some of them were adults, you know,
with their teenagers, which I've done that. It's one of
the greatest experiences you can have, is take your kid
to see whatever it is. But when it's music, it's
it's it feels more personal to me. So that was
(21:08):
that was joyous, and I was like, I kind of
miss being in that environment. But then when I got
the wider shots. I'm like, yeah, but I'm not doing
that anymore.
Speaker 7 (21:16):
My kids are adults. But so she's connecting on a level.
Speaker 6 (21:19):
But also the visuals I got from on stage were
just spectacular, like in the level of Taylor Swift and
in Lady Gaga, Like just the visual stimulation combined with
she writes music that just that just appeals to your
like primitive appeal to music and a lot of you know,
(21:41):
anthems and jumping around and and power to anyone whoever
you are. You know, it's it was. I mean, she's
she's important for now. I don't know how long this
will last because we're in a different culture. Well she
lasts as long as Taylor Swift, or does she even
wants to. I don't know, but she's a moment right now.
(22:03):
I think it's a significant moment.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
I agree with you. I think it is also, And
like you said, you don't know whether she'll reinvent herself
ten more times like Lady Gaga has successfully, or if
she'll just kind of ride this out and we'll see
how she evolves. Seems more the former to me that
she would be likely to do. But Taylor Swift has
done this now for well nigh up on two decades
(22:29):
being an incredible success and maybe finally, I mean the
phrase of jumping the shark has jumped the shark. But
maybe there's a couple signs that this is going to happen,
or they'll be a little lull, or maybe she'll take
a bit of a hiatus because she's going to get married. Obviously,
her new show, The Life of a Show Girl, I
know in the Guardian interview review I read it was
(22:52):
only a two star review and there on a five
star system, so that's not a very good review. There's
a little backlash to the fact that she puts out
so much extra content, and maybe you is say that
that's just a money making vehicle. I don't think this
is a big blowback. We're both fans of her as
a business woman and a person who's impacted people's lives positively,
and as a Chiefs fan too. But maybe a little
(23:15):
blip here for Taylor and that hasn't happened too often.
Speaker 7 (23:18):
Well, this is my take on it. I think this
is her.
Speaker 6 (23:23):
You know.
Speaker 7 (23:24):
I started to read an article in The Atlantic.
Speaker 6 (23:26):
I didn't get into it much, but their point was,
like she said a point in her life where what
does she have to prove? I remember when I wrote
a review of the show at Arrowhead the Aris tour,
one of my conclusive points was like, where does she
go from here? How is she going to top this?
Like she's always topped everything. And my point I was like,
(23:49):
she can't write about breakups anymore. She is in love
with a man of her life, and I think this
is her showing like, yeah, it's everything, including this sex.
Then if it's her walking away point, that's fine. I've
seen this with twice when I was working at the Start.
You know, I interviewed Britney Spears when she was at
(24:11):
a point where she was writing about more sexual things
and not just you know breakups in junior high, including
a song about masturbation. They're like, what, how do you what? Well,
she's twenty four now, like they were alone. And then
when Miley Cyrus came out after totally you know, walking
(24:32):
away from whoever she was Hannah Montana, I think, and
did a show where she was climbing a stripper pole,
but it had been expressed that yeah, she's in her
twenties now, she's not Hannah Montana anymore. This is where
she's going and get the album, read the lyrics and
read the So I think this was her. Taylor Swift
(24:55):
is in her thirties, Like I think she has bigger
things on her mind. I don't know what she needs
to do that she hasn't done, but I expect that
somedays she'll put out a record about marital bliss or
divorce or something. But right right now, she's until with
another life, I think, and I respect her for that,
(25:16):
and I think this is her exclamation point times ten, like, yeah,
I'm during another chapter of my life, another face.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
We'll see what that chapter brings. And as mentioned in
the open, we've talked about Springsteen fatigue. He's put out
documentaries and one man shows and books and everything else.
And now, I mean he didn't decide to do this,
but director Scott Cooper and writer Warren Zanes came up
with a book a movie about Springsteen, a biopic, and
(25:49):
he's been heavily involved with it. He's been on the
set and everything. It's called Delivery from Nowhere. It will
be coming out quite soon and it is one that
is starring So yeah, hold on a second gear. I'll
just give a couple more facts. It stars Jeremy Allen White,
who of course is the star of the Bear. He
was a non musician when he started this project. Is
(26:11):
sort of a Timothy shallow May type of thing. And
I've saw him interviewed on CBS Sunday Morning. He was
interesting and seemed like a good guy, and it looks
like he's got the moves in concert down, and I
think he's going to do a good job. I guess
I'm a little more intrigued because I've sort of walked
away from so much of this Bruce content. But we'll
(26:33):
see what happens with this film.
Speaker 6 (26:34):
My pushback is, I mean, for the last how many
years of his life, Bruce has been a multi, multi,
mega wealthy superstar, So what's part of their life are
they talking about? And I already know enough about the
early part to not be interested in this. Like I
(26:55):
was scrolling through music documentaries on one of my portals
and it's like this twenty twenty three documentary on Prince
the Life of Prince, like he's been gone thro Like
what are you going to show me that I don't know?
And it's like a seventy five minute documentary, Like I
think I probably know everything.
Speaker 2 (27:13):
Right, and there's no there's no bigger Prince fan than you.
But there's no bigger Prince fan than you, so you
know if you're not, you.
Speaker 6 (27:22):
Know, like I would show me something like since he
died in his estate. Sorry, I've got I don't even
really want to invest in them because there's there's a
lot going on there whatever. Tom Petty is a four
and a half hour documentary out and then the Wildflower documentary, Like,
don't show me like, oh, we're going to do the
(27:44):
spend of Tom Petty documentary.
Speaker 7 (27:46):
No you're not.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
It's already out there, So I don't know. I'm you know,
I'll listen and wait to see. I just know that
like these bio whatever you talk where you call them
the fake documentaries or my kids and I are fans
of true crime, but when I get to those true
crime they're like they read, they reconstruct things, and there's actors.
(28:10):
It's like, man, right, there's too many live footage of
shit that's we want to sorry, stuff we want to see.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
No problem.
Speaker 7 (28:18):
Yeah, It's like it was.
Speaker 6 (28:19):
Like, I don't know, I don't I love Bruce Like
I told you before I heard of him the album
before Born to Run the Wild the Innocent, and I
think that was it. But I bought every one of
his records and I respect him as much as anyone.
The last time I saw him, which was like twenty,
I don't know, nineteen, he was in his late sixties, seventies,
(28:43):
it was a great show. So I'm just he's putting
everything out and it's all coming at me and I'm like,
I have what I need, so yes, but thank you
for being out there.
Speaker 7 (28:55):
Paul McCartney's still out there. God bless yes.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
And finally let's end up with something so that also
maybe reeks of a little, uh little user fatigue, and
that is Rolling Stone lists. And now, because we're actually
a quarter of the way through the new quote unquote millennium,
they've put out a list of the top songs of
the New Millennium, leaning toward the billboard charts and such.
(29:18):
And I guess it's another thing that's sort of you know,
chipsy on the back of the neck with you know,
somebody's thumb and says you're you're kind of old if
you don't like these songs. That's almost what they're saying.
Speaker 6 (29:32):
Okay, So so Rolling Stone has a has a list.
I don't remember what the number is, two fifty maybe
beyond and I and I I bit on this, you
know thing. I got on Facebook, like, oh, let me
see what the list is, and they just revealed the
top trend. So I went to the list and looked
(29:52):
at it and but it's it's I don't like we
talk about this. These are just they're just starting five,
like and I try not to bite on them, but
I did. And it's limited from songs for release from
two thousand and now, which is actually twenty six years.
But but a song by the Yaays is number two,
(30:16):
which when I read that, I was like, you're just
begging for a fight, you know, like, of the of
the best songs in the last twenty five years, they
have number two, like I don't. And I think Missy
Elliott had number one, which is fine, she's great, you know,
we can forget it's been a while. But in the
(30:36):
top ten, Taylor Swift was there for a song I
didn't recognize. That doesn't mean anything. I don't I'm not
my daughters. I don't know all her songs, right, she
probably deserved presence in the top ten, right, But there's
no like even like the White Stripes, who I can
take or leave like they were not revolutionary.
Speaker 7 (30:54):
Sorry, I don't know they were. I love Jack White, Yeah,
he's some rocks are but.
Speaker 6 (31:02):
There's no a Tel, there's no there's no Billie Eilish,
there's no Chapel Roane or Chapel Rome, there's no right. Yeah,
there are a lot of there's no outcast like Oats.
I thought they were like a bomb going off in
the early part. Like, there's none of them in the
top ten or even in the top twenty. So take
it for what it's worth, you know, look at it
(31:24):
if you want to get agitated and fight. I mean
radio heads in there. But it's also even like excluding
the bands that I like that we're not on the
Billboard charts, so I know my tastes are a little
different from larger population. But there's stuff that I like
that should have been on there, and it was left out.
So I'm going to promise myself again not to click
(31:47):
on that.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
I guess part of the problem with this is that
it's it's Rolling Stone. We always thought of Rolling Stone
as sort of the touchstone, you know, and on guard right,
and then you sort of feel like, well, Rolling Stone
was cool. They didn't end up dartic was about people
you didn't know that much about when it was hard
to find out people, and and you know they they
did the books of listenings of classic rock and rating
(32:09):
every record so and and now you you know, I
always check out their news because I do this podcast
it and it's just like US magazine or something. So
maybe that's the part of the disappointment is in Rolling Stone.
Isn't the quote unquote what we would have thought it was?
Speaker 6 (32:26):
The yea, yeah, yeah, I thought, wait, does this shoot?
Did I started to fifteen, We're going up to one? Like, no,
they were I like them. I've seen them. They're so incidental,
Like how do you pick?
Speaker 7 (32:40):
What are you doing?
Speaker 6 (32:41):
Like, yeah, that's like saying, you know, one of the greatest,
you know, one of the greatest sitcoms was something that
got canceled after half a year or I don't know.
Speaker 3 (32:51):
Right exactly exactly.
Speaker 2 (32:53):
Well, I'll sam, it's good to get agitated about music
and embrace it and enjoy it. And I pay tribute
to those who are great, and maybe Tevis snicker at
those who are less great or at least in our mind,
but they still please millions and millions of people, and
we are people pleasers every couple of weeks and it's
all because of your contributions. Look forward to talking to
(33:14):
you in a couple of weeks.
