🎙️ Show Topic: 🎸 Music and Memories of Rock and Roll – A Journey Through Sound and Soul! 🎸
My latest podcast, recorded on Monday, October 27th, 2025, was a fab show filled with great music and unforgettable memories from the golden age of rock and roll. We spun tunes from The Beatles, Laurel Canyon favorites, Bubblegum Pop hits, The Monkees, The Beach Boys, and many others that defined an era.
A huge thanks to our special guest, Stephen Michael Schwartz, who shared his wonderful music memories, from his deep love of The Beatles and the California Sound, to the joyful vibes of Bubblegum Pop, John Denver, Harry Nilsson, and more.
Stephen also talked about his own incredible journey in music, starting with his recordings on RCA in 1974, and continuing through the songs he’s written for both adults and children.
We even looked back on his work with Parachute Express and their beloved tune “Dr. Looney’s Remedy,” featured 30 years ago in Disney’s Home Video Come Sing With Us (1995).
It was a heartfelt and inspiring episode that celebrated the joy, creativity, and spirit of rock and roll across generations.
Expect Beatles brilliance, Everly Brothers harmonies, California-sound sunshine, bubblegum pop hooks, and singer-songwriter treasures from John Denver, Jackson Browne, Harry Nilsson, The Monkees, The Beach Boys, and more.
We weave the stories behind the songs with first-hand recollections, concerts, chance meetings, and the way certain records still feel like home the moment the needle drops.
🕰️ Tune in for melodies, memories, and the soundtrack of a lifetime.
