I just heard about the passing of Gary Wright, and what an immense talent. He's also the man who gave Steve Porcaro his first gig. He's the skinny kid playing multiple keyboards at the same time in the video below, including the keyboard bass strapped around his neck..

We would found Toto the following year with a couple of friends from high school.

I am really starting to hate the whole "album noise" effect on pop music.

Hey guys, I own a LOT of Vinyl. NONE of it sounds like that.

Peter Gabriel has now released NINE singles this year (so far), and there's not a clunker among them.

Seriously, this is his best work in decades. Here's the new track:

A fair number of unsigned artists will be featured on Radio Free California tomorrow, as well as a couple in Spanish and one in Japanese. And oh yes, one smokin' jazz tune too.

What can I say? My tastes are eclectic. Stay tuned!

I might be putting my first ever foriegn language album on the Album Show next week. I just discovered an artist named Aleph Soul and their new album "El Puente" and I am just hooked.

My understanding of Spanish is stereotypically American Terrible, but these songs sound awfully good.

Here is the actual Official Video for "Ordinary Life". There is another one you may have seen already but this is the one I prefer. A special thank you to Abdul K (aka @sarkerkader444) on fiverr, who put this together. If you need this sort of thing done, he's the guy.
