What a treat the final third of the show was. Good friend to the proGram Todd Clouser rang in to discuss his solo show on May 9th at the Frequency. The making of A Love Electric‘s new album “The Naked Beat” and how adding the sinGing to his work became a natural proGression, but still on to get used to. It is always a treat to chat with Todd about his and others music. Speaking of others….Todd recently played a few gigs with John Medeski, who happened to be our bottom of the hour guest. John and I discussed in lenGth the making of his new album “A Different Time“, and perhaps his reasoning behind making this album “to be different”. We discussed how music and songs heal as well as the shared space we have in our ears for sound. It was a thrill to be able to talk to him about both Todd and friend of the show, Micro Rivard, the leader behind my Sun Ra, Club d’Elf….and to get a sort of feel what it is like for John to join this amoeba of characters making inspirational improvisational music.

Here are some of those shared spaces:

This final portion of the show was filled with conversations. First was an artist I have been spinnin’ for yEARS and it was great to talk with Ron Levy about his new album and book…we swapped some quick stories about a shared beloved pal, Melvin Sparks and chords and harmonies/B.B. King and how he uses his ear memory. It was just like a conversation on this proGram was first started and intended. Then, ringing in riGht after Ron was Sallie Ford who made up for not ringing in the day before..we spoke of her show that evening at the Majestic and the new album. I was able to spin a few more tracks between that chat and a thrill of a good time convo with Freekbass. He and I talked about his Cincinnati Reds and my Red Sox, his album Concentrate and the work with Bootsy Collins on it, as well as almost all his records…Freek will be playing bass on tour in the Kelly Richey Band, and will stop here in Madison this Friday at the Harmony Bar. He also mentioned tales of a new album that included the words nasty and dirty, so now…that sounds like something to look funkward to. Here’s what the show looked like:
