    Swiss Composer Kurt Maloo Talks about his Mega Hit "The Captain of Her Heart"
    Nov 19 2024

    KURT MALOO “THE CAPTAIN OF HER HEART” MEGA HIT- SWISS SINGER-SONGWRITER-COMPOSER-MUSICIAN-RECORD PRODUCER

    ZOOM EXCLUSIVE SPECIAL EDITION WITH RAY SHASHO

    Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends I’m your host Ray Shasho.

    In the 1980s, as one half of the brilliant pop duo Double, Kurt Maloo coauthored and sang the most enduring hit Switzerland has ever produced: “The Captain of Her Heart.”

    “The Captain Of Her Heart” remains a firm favorite and is still part of Maloo’s live repertoire. Internationally the most successful Swiss song of all time and regularly makes it into the jazz and pop download charts throughout the world. The song captures the moment when a woman realizes she can no longer wait for the man who has won her heart, but must move on to a new life, “as the day comes up.” This melancholic optimism is central to both Maloo’s poetry and his music.

    “Off The Record” is Kurt Maloo’s latest project a collection of songs released on an EP starting with volume 1 released in 2023 and volume 2 released this year. Reviving his 1966 Fender Strat and singing in Spanish (for the first time) on one of the songs, might not be what you were used to hear on his previous albums. But the new songs will constantly grow on you. Their fresh and intriguing atmosphere is providing the perfect background for Kurt’s warm and comforting voice.

    Oscar Fuentes Bills & Sepand Samzadeh of 'Days Between Stations' Talk New Album!
    Nov 2 2024

    ART ROCK/POST PROG GROUP ‘DAYS BETWEEN STATIONS’ RELEASING NEW ALBUM ‘PERPETUAL MOTION MACHINES’

    ZOOM EXCLUSIVE WITH OSCAR FUENTES BILLS & SEPAND SAMZADEH MUSIC VIDEO “SEEDS” OUT NOW!

    Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends I’m your host Ray Shasho.

    Days Between Stations are releasing their fourth album, “Perpetual Motion Machines (Music For A Film),” on November 29. Recently released is the music video “Seeds.”

    The music video for “Seeds” features artist Jean-Paul Bourdier BOO DWA at work, altering landscapes, coloring bodies, marking up film frames, playing with manufactured items to see how they influence visuals.

    “Perpetual Motion Machines (Music For Film)” is the result of DBS founding members keyboardist Oscar Fuentes Bills and guitarist Sepand Samzadeh working on the music for a documentary film about Jean-Paul Bourdier, himself, in the mid-2010s. As the music reached completion, the group was offered the opportunity to release their music as a “proper” album. Sepand says, “Jean Paul’s artwork was our muse, and we scored the music to pictures and to existing films.”

    Pink Floyd backup vocalist Durga McBroom sings on “Being,” which will be released as a video. The album is dedicated to the memory of "Big" Bill Kaylor who engineered early sessions of “Perpetual Motion Machines” and worked on the group’s second album, “In Extremis.”

    The band has a history of music in films-dating back to “Radio Song” (from the debut album) licensed in the independent film “Young, Single & Angry” in 2006 and then in 2023 in “Paul & Trisha: The Art of Fluidity,” now featured on Apple Movies.

    PROG ROCK GROUP ‘NINE STONES CLOSE’ RELEASING NEW ALBUM ‘ADVENTURES IN ANHEDONIA’ EXCLUSIVE ZOOM SPECIAL EVENT WITH BAND LEADER ADRIAN JONES

    LIVE FROM SWITZERLAND ON INTERVIEWING THE LEGENDS WITH RAY SHASHO

    Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends I’m your host Ray Shasho.

    International Progressive Rock band Nine Stones Close, with members from the UK, Ireland, Switzerland and the Netherlands, will release their second album of the year, “Adventures in Anhedonia,” on November 07, 2024, via FREIA Music. This new release follows “Diurnal,” which garnered critical acclaim upon its release in June.

    “Adventures in Anhedonia” is a deeply personal album, lyrically reflecting on the mental health and well-being of individuals, based on the personal experiences and traumas of guitarist Adrian Jones. Adrian shares: “It really reflects what’s been happening to me over the past years, the effect it’s had on me, and how I have tried to deal with some of it.”

    Musically, the album takes a distinct direction from “Diurnal,” capturing the emotional weight of the lyrical themes while still maintaining the signature Nine Stones Close sound.

    The band has also revealed the album’s cover artwork, another stunning piece by long-time visual collaborator Antonios Seijas.

    Prog Legend Neal Morse Talks New Album w/The Resonance Exclusive!
    Oct 12 2024
    NEAL MORSE & THE RESONANCE ANNOUNCE NEW RELEASE ‘NO HILL FOR A CLIMBER' AND LAUNCH FIRST SINGLE “ALL THE RAGE’ EXCLUSIVE SPECIAL EVENT ON INTERVIEWING THE LEGENDS WITH RAY SHASHO! Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends I’m your host Ray Shasho. Neal Morse is an American singer, musician and composer based in Nashville, Tennessee. In 1992, he formed the progressive rock band Spock's Beard with his brother Alan, he joined Dream Theater's co-founder and then drummer Mike Portnoy, formed the super-group Transatlantic. In 2002, Neal Morse became a born-again Christian, left Spock's Beard and began a Christian rock solo career, releasing many progressive rocks concept albums about his new religious faith, He continued to play with Transatlantic and formed three new bands with Portnoy, Yellow Matter Custard, Flying Colors and The Neal Morse Band. One of his most recent projects included two critically acclaimed solo releases with D'Virgilio, Morse & Jennings. Throughout his long career, Neal Morse has often been a musical collaborator, usually with some of the greatest prog musicians across the world. This time, Morse has brought that collaborative spirit closer to home. The new album by Neal Morse & The Resonance – entitled ‘No Hill for A Climber’ will be released November 8th, 2024, and the title is taken from a resonant line in Barbara Kingsolver’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel Demon Copperhead. PLEASE WELCOME AMERICAN SINGER,SONGWRITER,MULTI-INSTRUMENTALIST NEAL MORSE TO INTERVIEWING THE LEGENDS … PREORDER NO HILL FOR A CLIMBER BY NEAL MORSE AND THE RESONANCE OFFICALLY REALEASED NOVEMBER 8TH Pre-order now here: https://nealmorse.lnk.to/NoHillForAClimber To coincide with the announcement, the track ‘All The Rage’ has been launched with a brand new video. Watch it now here: https://youtu.be/BSXjvdHqADk?si=F_0g0Inzs48UoJvy “Awesome album! I can safely say this will be a fave of the year for me!” – Mike Portnoy Faithful to any Neal Morse prog album, ‘No Hill For A Climber’ features two epics (the 28 minute ‘No Hill For A Climber’ and ‘Eternity In Your Eyes’, which clocks in at 22 minutes) as well as three shorter songs: ‘Ever Interceding’, ‘All The Rage’ and ‘Thief’. The latter, Morse admits, is his current favorite: “It’s so different… it’s in all these different sections, and I’m really happy with the way each part has come out. It’s pretty crazy. There’s even a really cool King Crimson-style instrumental bit in the middle that Chris Riley originally came up with at the Radiant School a couple of years ago.” For all of these reasons, Morse believes that the whole album is unique, but notes that “if I was going to compare its structure to an album I've done in the past, it might be along the lines of ‘Bridge Across Forever’ or Spock's Beard’s ‘V’; it’s not that it sounds at all like those albums, it’s just structurally similar. It has voices and playing styles and soundscapes that many people will have never heard before! Everyone you work with changes you a little bit, so even sound a little different on this one, but I hope that everyone will love it!” FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT NEAL MORSE & RADIANT RECORDS VISIT https://nealmorse.com/ Official website https://nealmorse.com/morsefest-2024-2025/ Morsefest official website https://www.facebook.com/nealmorse/ Facebook https://x.com/nealmorse Twitter https://www.instagram.com/neal_morse_official Instagram https://www.youtube.com/user/NealMorseMusic/featured YouTube TOUR DATES Moresefest November 8, 2024 - November 9, 2024 White House, TN Morsefest 2024 USA @ New Life Fellowship November 15, 2024 - November 16, 2024 Zoetermeer, The Netherlands Morsefest 2024 EU @ De Boerderij January 17, 2025 - January 18, 2025 Brentwood, London, UK Morsefest 2025 UK @ Trinity Church NEAL MORSE Discography With Spock's Beard Main article: Spock's Beard § Discography The Light (1995) Beware of Darkness (1996) The Kindness of Strangers (1998) Day for Night (1999) V (2000) Snow (2002) Singer-songwriter albums Neal Morse (1999) It's Not Too Late (2002) Songs from the Highway (2007) Songs from November (2014) Life & Times (2018) Late Bloomer (2024) Neal Morse & The Resonance No Hill for a Climber (2024) Prog albums Testimony (2003) One (2004) ?

Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of Interviewing the Legends I’m your host Ray Shasho. John Wesley has built a long and varied career as a songwriter, “sideman” guitarist, and recording artist. His music has been called lyrically sensitive and musically dynamic. His songwriting style incorporates emotionally charged vocals that evoke the honesty and intimacy of Roger Waters and Patty Griffin coupled with a melodic yet intricate guitar style reminiscent of David Gilmour, Alex Lifeson, Jeff Beck, and Warren Haynes. Wesley’s guitar-driven acoustic and electric songs represent the cultivation of many inspirations — alternative, progressive, art, and classic rock genres intertwined with poignant lyrics drawn from the poetry of the common man. What really appeals to Wesley’s fans worldwide is a spark of sincerity and sensitivity so oft absent in today’s mainstream music In 2021, Wesley began touring as a guitarist and backing vocalist for alternative rock band from D.C.

Bridging past and present, the grit of industry and the calloused hard work of a rural man, “Closer to My Home” champions Farner’s multi-faceted artistry. Celebrating the 55th anniversary of the iconic hit “(I’m Your Captain) Closer to My Home” the album is highlighted with a re-record, finding Farner in exactly the same form as 1970. Mark says …“These songs are honest and from my heart,” “The collaboration with Jim (Peterik) and Mark (Slaughter) came from a place of trust and that makes the whole experience so much more rewarding as songwriters. The audience can feel that, and these songs reflect those very human moments that you can’t find creating a song from a computer.” PLEASE WELCOME LEGENDARY SINGER,SONGWRITER,GUITARIST,KEYBOARDIST, FORMER MEMBER OF GRAND FUNK RAIROAD AND CURRENT MEMBER OF MARK FARNER’S AMERICAN BAND… BROTHER MARK FARNER TO INTERVIEWING THE LEGENDS … PREORDER ‘CLOSER TO MY HOME’ BY MARK FARNER at https://markfarner.com/shop-2/ FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT MARK FARNER VISIT https://markfarner.com/ Mark Farner’s American Band Official website https://markfarner.com/farner-chords/ Farner Chords https://www.facebook.com/MarkFarnerAmericanBand/ Facebook https://www.instagram.com/markfarners_americanband/ Instagram https://music.apple.com/us/artist/mark-farner/2776173 Apple https://open.spotify.com/artist/6EIXFRkQvNMjdmgoBz2Gb7 Spotify https://www.amazon.com/music/player/artists/B000QJTLVO?isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=true Ama https://www.pandora.com/artist/mark-farner/ARz6Xx3PxbPdj9czon Pandora MARK FARNER’S AMERICAN BAND Upcoming concerts Oct.24th 2024 Robins Theatre Warren, OH Dec.05th 2024 The Ridgefield Playhouse Ridgefield,CT March 15th-22nd 2025 70's Rock & Romance Cruise 2025 Fort Lauderdale, Fl MARK FARNER DISCOGRAPHY Studio albums Mark Farner, 1977 No Frills, 1978 Just Another Injustice, 1988 Wake Up..., 1989 Some Kind of Wonderful, 1991 For the People, 2006 Closer to Home (2024) Mark Farner’s American Band From Chile with Love Live DVD with Grand Funk Railroad On Time (1969) Grand Funk (1969) Closer to Home (1970) Live Album (1970) Survival (1971) E Pluribus Funk (1971) Phoenix (1972) We're an American Band (1973) Shinin' On (1974) All the Girls in the World Beware!!!
