Taken to the Bridge, now what?

In reflecting back on the show today, I realized once again how fortunate I am to be able to spend time listening into the worlds of and sharing the times of some damn amazing people. The songs, the spirits and the innovations people come up with and express via sound stretches who I am as a person and increases my passion for wanting to spread it out there for others to feel what they may. Special Guest phone interview with Brother Larry McDonald, one of the earth’s greatest percussionists. We take time to discuss his first solo release, Drumquestra on MCPR Music, some differences between music from when he played with inventors like Bob Marley to the times of music now and we must have made a lot of people’s ears burn we brought up so many talents artists in our conversation. Hoping to get that conversation edited up & posted on the site soon, stay tuned. With must respect to Diane for everything always. Here’s the result of the weeks inspiration:
