Legendary proto-punk guitar heroes, James Williamson & Deniz Tek, have joined forces for a brand new, odds-defying studio album, Two To One, set to be released September 18 by Cleopatra Records. An inductee into the Rock N Roll Hall of Fame, Williamson was the guitarist and co-songwriter for one of the most iconic and influential albums of all-time, Iggy & The Stooges Raw Power, while Tek launched and occupied the same role for what became Australia’s ground zero for the punk movement with his band, the revered Radio Birdman. The album features 11 all-new original compositions highlighted by the first single “Stable” and the explosive lead-off track “Jet Pack Nightmare.”
Watch the video for “Stable”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OwkUzeJzpo
Williamson had this to say about the project; “It was really a lot of fun working with Deniz to make a no-frills, good old-fashioned guitar album. Took me back to Raw Power and Kill City days. Deniz comes from a very similar approach to music that I do, both of us have had many years of experience in Detroit and Ann Arbor, Michigan.”
Tek adds: “Raw Power shaped my path as a young guitar player. It was great to partner up with James to make this album. Everything fell into place beyond expectations - the songs, the band, the production, and even the timing. I am very happy with it."

EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW
A very versatile acoustic and electric bassist capable of playing straight-ahead jazz, funk, and fusion, Brian Bromberg has built a respected career playing with a bevy of luminaries and issuing his own highly regarded albums. Influenced by the virtuosic finger-tapping style of Stanley Jordan, Bromberg sometimes sounds like three bassists at once during his often thunderous solos. It's a talent that found him a part of Stan Getz's group at age 19. Since then, he has been a valuable sidemen with artists like Dave Grusin, Billy Cobham, Michael Bublé, and others. He recorded his first albums as a leader in the '80s with dates like 1988's Basses Loaded with Ernie Watts, and has since balanced session work with recording his own varied dates, such as 1991's It's About Time: The Acoustic Project, 2005's Metal, and 2010's Bromberg Plays Hendrix.
Taking time out from his solo work, Bromberg appeared on albums by Till Brönner, Andrea Bocelli, Andreas Varady, and others. In 2016, he returned with Full Circle, which included guest appearances from Arturo Sandoval, Kirk Whalum, and others. Thicker Than Water arrived in 2018 and featured guest spots by Najee, George Duke, Randy Brecker, and more.
The Bromberg Plays Hendrix remix/remaster will be available on September 18, 2020. You can begin Pre ordering as of August 14th, 2020.

A remixed and remastered version of veteran jazz bassist Brian Bromberg‘s 2012 tribute album to Jimi Hendrix, Bromberg Plays Hendrix, will be released on September 18 in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the guitar legend’s death.
The unique instrumental album actually features no electric guitar, with Bromberg’s bass accompanied solely by longtime Jeff Beck drummer Vinnie Colaiuta.
Bromberg Plays Hendrix features renditions of such classic songs as “Fire,” “Manic Depression,” “The Wind Cries Mary,” “Foxey Lady,” “Hey Joe,” “Crosstown Traffic” and “Purple Haze,” among others. The reissue also includes a new original tribute tune Brian composed titled “Jimi.”
Bromberg says he’s been a Hendrix fan since he was a kid.
“I was 10 years old when he died, and I remember sitting on the floor of my bedroom, looking at his picture and crying,” he recalls. “Jimi Hendrix was a larger than life figure to me. There was something about him that really intrigued me, even as a young child.”
Regarding Colaiuta’s contribution to his album, Brian says, “He’s a genius. There’s nothing he can’t do.”
Bromberg’s long list of credits includes playing on albums by Lou Rawls, Stephen Bishop, David Cassidy, longtime David Bowie keyboardist Mike Garson, Kenny G, Michael Bublé, Andrea Boccelli and ex-Toto singer Bobby Kimball.

PITCH:
I am a 63 years old scholar and scientist: A graduate out of Loyola University in Westchester Los Angeles from the 1970's. I have also had two full NED experiences at age 25 and 44 that changed the way I look at the Universe and even our periodic chart of elements. It also affected the way I look at all our sciences on the planet, especially medicine.
I was finally interviewed on Coast to Coast AM by George Noory on November 19, 2019 and April 5, 2020; to tell some of my amazing life story. I came back from the Light to write a new book I've titled THE MASTER'S KEY TO UNLOCKING AND MASTERING CHRONIC DISEASE. The book delves into the science behind how non-environmental and non-congenital disease works in all organic life on the planet. This is cutting edge science and connections our planet needs which cover everything from CFS to Cancer and how they are formed in the body.
You can read more about the story behind my work, as a private researcher scientist, on my website; at the following URL where I'm selling the book. The book has been selling both through Payhip.com out of the UK as an ebook and through Bookbaby.com out of New Jersey, as a soft cover, paperback version.
So far, everyone who has interviewed me are very interested in my two NDE experiences. However, I did not come back from the other side to talk about that experience and get stereo typed as a paranormal experience. I came back to help bring new insight into our world to help save human life by enhancing our medical knowledge on this planet. I need to be heard on more medical and alternative medical health care talk shows, not just the paranomal shows who are interested in my NDE experiences. The knowledge revealed in THE MASTER'S KEY, not only saved my life, but is saving the lives of those who put the knowledge to work in their own lives after they read THE MASTER'S KEY.
There is no other book like THE MASTER'S KEY book on the face of the planet right now and what it reveals, I know because I've read the top health science books these past 20 years as well as thousands of abstracts on the subject leading to incredible connections out planet needs right now, including how to clear the COVID19 virus from the body without a vaccine. No one has captured what I reveal in THE MASTER'S KEY.

BIOGRAPHY:
I was born back in the mid 1950’s to Patrick and Patricia Montague. I attended four grade schools in Los Angeles, California: I was a born asthmatic and struggled with bad eye sight all my life. This kept me out of sports and kept me more in my books. So my physical handicaps served to make me the scholar I am today. My parents divorced when I was age ten, after being separated for three years. My brother Patrick Vincent and I eventually wound up in the custody of my father just before the start of our teen years. We then both attended Notre Dame High School from about 1970 to 1974. I graduated cum laude (with honors) and won a California State scholarship. I decided to attend Loyola University of Westchester, California, because I was interested in their fine & communication and liberal arts & sciences programs.
My interest had always been in the arts and sciences, since I could first walk. I was always taking things apart as a boy to see how they worked, as a budding young scientist and I wanted to learn music at the early age of 5 years. However, the unrest in my family caused by my mother, held me back from learning at the fast pace I wanted to learn. I got some lessons, but didn’t get to really pursue learning music, until age 15: Then, while attending Loyola University, I nearly second majored in music before graduation. These days I keep a Cdbaby artist page of some of my earlier music works dating back to my late teens and early twenties. I thought back then, I would not focus more on the science aspect of my interests, until this time of my life anyway: So, I went after the performing arts first, while keeping my studies in the liberal sciences going, even after graduation. I never stop studying and reading as a scholar.
After graduation from Loyola University, around age 23; I had my first full death encounter off the operating table of Hollywood Presbyterian Hospital during a pylogram and cystoscope study at age 25; where sodium pentothal was used to put me under. I did not have to come back from the Light in that experience, for I had learned the original plan for my life had been “wrecked”, as I stood before the Lord of the Universe we call Jesus in this world, while I was in the Light. So I didn’t have to come back to the Earth at age 25. The experience was all quite real and profound. We are part of something far grander than any of you can even begin to imagine. How the grander picture of it all works,
I came back to reach out to my parents and brother, because the Light showed me that they were tetter tottering between Heaven and Hell: Both places in the Light are quite real I might add. Our Lord encouraged me to return, so I would be sure they were going to be fine, before moving me on past this life. I was working on a new board game titled THE MILLION DOLLAR BANK GAME, so as to market it with the banks as a giveaway premium and then into the retail market back in those days. I’ve never been wealthy as a scholar, but I knew I needed a vehicle that would quicken the pace of making me the money I needed to further pursue the arts and sciences. That’s another story in my life. I was very close to final success after many years of marketing, when I walked into a local Vons supermarket near my home, where I bought contaminated sausage, causing my health to dramatically fail. I spent 3 years with Western medicine to try and save my life. After three years, my primary care physician told me to go home and die; for there was nothing else they could do for me.
I was very close to death when I met a fellow by the name of Dr. Rick Santee, ND; who started me down a new pathway to help me change my biological terrain. I had entered a new world of science I would have to master. My life was dependent upon it too. Eventually, I surpassed Dr. Santee’s knowledge as a research scientist and started to begin the journey that lead to writing THE MASTER’S KEY, where I was walking “virgin territory” in my research studies Santee told me. It took 15 years to write the new book that came from that as I saved my life in the end.
When the Light showed me the peril my parents and brother were in, with them tetter tottering between heaven and hell, I decided to come back; to see if I could make a difference in their lives, to get them home to the Light, where our Lord’s heaven is located.

LEGENDARY BASSIST
with
J E F F E R S O N A I R P L A N E
and
H O T T U N A
ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME MEMBER
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW!
As a Founding member of the Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna, Jack Casady’s full driving tone and innovative melodic bass work has defined the role of bass guitar in Rock and Roll for decades. Liberating the bass from its traditional role as part of the rhythm section, Jack s pioneering approach has brought the instrument to the forefront. With sweeping chords and stormy melodic lines Jack’s bass distinguished not only Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna but also a variety of side projects and recordings with artists including Jimi Hendrix, David Crosby, Warren Zevon, Country Joe and The Fish, SVT, Rusted Root and Gov’t Mule.
In September of 1965, Casady received a fateful call from his old friend Jorma Kaukonen, who had transferred from Antioch College to Santa Clare University in San Francisco and became immersed in a new music scene developing there. As Jack recalls, “Jorma told me he had joined a band called Jefferson Airplane and I kind of laughed at the name. He asked me what I was doing and seemed surprised to hear that I was playing the bass. Then he says, ‘Wait a minute. I’ve got a bass player in this band that I’m not fond of. It’s not working out, in my opinion.’ So then he says, ‘Let me call you back.’ A few minutes later he calls back and says, ‘We got this band. We got a manager. And the manager promises to pay us $50 a week whether we “work or not.” ‘ And I said, You’re on!’”
When the original singer Signe Anderson left the band to have a baby, it was Jack who convinced Grace Slick, then performing with her own band the Great Society, to join the group. The roster complete, Jefferson Airplane rocketed to superstardom in 1967 on the initial strength of their hits “Somebody To Love” and “White Rabbit,” making them a cornerstone of San Francisco’s burgeoning rock scene. Jack’s ground-breaking basswork was a highlight of Surrealistic Pillow, the Airplane’s 1967 breakthrough album. “That album was really a unique statement,” says Casady in retrospect. “There were a lot of different styles of songs contributed by everybody, including an instrumental acoustic fingerpicking original tune by Jorma called ‘Embryonic Journey.’ It was quite an eclectic album and I think it still holds up today.” Jefferson Airplane subsequently released a string of acclaimed recordings –After Bathing At Baxter’s (late ’67), Crown of Creation (’68), the live Bless Its Pointed Little Head (’69), Volunteers (’70), Bark (’71), Long John Silver (’72) and the live Thirty Seconds Over Winterland (1973). The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995.
In 1970, Casady and Kaukonen found time between Airplane gigs to put together another uniquely named aggregation, the blues-influenced Hot Tuna. “We formed Hot Tuna basically because we were young and had endless energy,” says Casady, “and there was so much material going into the Airplane from everybody it ended up that you’d only get a couple of songs per session.
Hot Tuna shows are an opportunity to witness two lifelong friends coming together to make extraordinary music. “I can’t remember having so much fun,” says Casady, “but also musically being so in touch and in the moment with the music as I am now; where every minute, every note counts on stage. And I find it really unique that I have a situation with a partner of over 42 years now where we can just really enjoy the craft of making music together.”

Jack Casady shares his ideas and techniques with learning bassists. In an informal and delightful session (Jorma provides vocals and guitar along with companionable commentary), Jack analyzes his bass parts for classic tunes from the Hot Tuna repertoire, and discusses the musical concepts that make up his unique style -- melodic lines, tonal variety, chordal work and improvisational solos.

Songs include "Ninety-Nine Year Blues," "Blues in A," "San Francisco Bay Blues," "Been So Long," "Mann's Fate" and "Water Song."

One half of the best-selling duo of all time

NEW RELEASE
JOHN OATES & THE GOOD ROAD BAND ‘LIVE IN NASHVILLE’
IS SET FOR
A SEPTEMBER 18TH RELEASE
EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEW!
John Oates is one half of the best-selling duo of all time, Hall & Oates, as well as an accomplished solo artist. Singing from the time he could talk and playing the guitar since the age of five, John Oates was destined to be a musician. Born in New York City, his family moved to a small town outside of Philadelphia, PA in the early 1950s, a move that would change the course of his life.
Soaking up the sounds of the 60s, John was influenced by the nascent folk scene, bluegrass, delta blues, and ragtime guitar styles, while also immersing himself in R&B legends such as Otis Redding, Sam and Dave, The Temptations, Curtis Mayfield, and Smokey Robinson and the Miracles. One of his biggest mentors was his guitar teacher Jerry Ricks, who had spent time on the road with Mississippi John Hurt and Son House, and introduced John to the music of Doc Watson and Reverend Gary Davis, passing down their signature finger and flatpicking styles.
John Oates met Daryl Hall while attending Temple University in Philadelphia, PA. The two began collaborating and playing music together, marking the beginning of their historic partnership. Since their formation in the early 70s, Daryl Hall & John Oates have gone on to record 21 albums, which have sold over 80 million units, making them the most successful duo in rock history. They have scored 10 number one records, over 20 Top 40 hits, and have toured the world for decades.
In addition to their numerous American Music, MTV awards, and multiple Grammy nominations, in 2005 they were inducted into the American Songwriters Hall of Fame and in May of 2008 were presented the prestigious BMI Icon Award for their outstanding career achievement in songwriting. In April 2014, Hall & Oates were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
Since embarking on a long awaited solo career in 1999, John has recorded six solo albums: Phunk Shui, 100 Miles of Life, Mississippi Mile, a live album called The Bluesville Sessions, and Good Road To Follow, (which featured collaborations with Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic, Vince Gill, Nathan Chapman, Jim Lauderdale, and Jerry Douglas).
John’s most recent record album:
JOHN OATES & THE GOOD ROAD BAND ‘LIVE IN NASHVILLE’
IS SET FOR
A SEPTEMBER 18TH RELEASE
John went on the road with the “ Good Road Band “ the very same musicians that played on the album and developed a critically acclaimed show which he captured during a live performance at the legendary Station Inn in Nashville in June of 2020. The recording, to be released in September 2020 displays the amazing talent of these world class players and captures the energy of not only the music of “Arkansas” but introduces new original songs as well. “This is the culmination of two years of touring and you can hear the players interacting and working together in a way that is astounding.

Change of Seasons:
A Memoir Hardcover
–Deckle Edge, March 28, 2017
by John Oates (Author), Chris Epting (Author)
available at amazon.com
John Oates was born at the perfect time, paralleling the birth of rock ‘n roll. Raised in a small Pennsylvania town, he was exposed to folk, blues, soul, and R&B. Meeting and teaming up with Daryl Hall in the late 1960s, they developed a style of music that was uniquely their own but never abandoned their roots. John uncovers the grit and struggle it took to secure a recording contract with the legendary Atlantic Records and chronicles the artistic twists and turns that resulted in a DJ discovering an obscure album track that would become their first hit record. This is not your typical rock and roll story. John was focused creating great music. Along the way he achieved incredible success, battling the ever-changing pop music landscape and coming to terms with complex managerial, business, and personal challenges.
Daryl Hall and John Oates have over 20 albums together, more than 60 million records sold, and 29 Top 40 hits. They are the most successful pop duo in the world and members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. And yet John’s story has never been told. Relying on his many hand-written journals, he brings to light many fascinating stories spanning his entire life with a journalist’s eye and a poet’s heart.
In Change of Seasons, John shares his highs, lows, triumphs, and failures. He takes the reader on a wild ride through all the eras, personalities and music that has shaped him into what he is.
