    At the height of the early Covid scare Jack was nearing the end of his life with lung cancer. His long lost son came onto the scene and convinced a lot of us that Jack's unrecorded songs about his favorite jazz legends needed to be recorded. Everyone said "Damn the virus" and pulled together to get these timeless songs laid down for posterity. Well here it is 5 years later and posterity ain't enough...people need to hear this incredible stuff. Here 'tis

  • Ol' Steve By His Lonesome, Music You Ain't Never Heard
    Jul 29 2025
    Beth is out of town and Steve has to lift this whole thing by his lonesome. I pulled out a lot of wacky music from films and various projects, most of which never made it to a successful release for whatever reason. Includes a brand new one from Beth and Steve's upcoming album as well as a variety of original songs and instrumentals...like a song consisting of birds in the jungle of Papua, a terribly wrong attempt at new age music, Steve's famous Hot Wheels commercial, Beth's song about our goldfish that tried to fly but crashed on the floor, Jason Feddy singing amazing grace. And that's just a little sample

  • Our Show Featuring Harold Payne
    Jul 21 2025
    Multi Platinum singer-songwriter Harold Payne joins Beth and Steve for an hour of stories and tunes. Harold has written songs for many major artists including Rod Stewart, The Temptations, Taj Majal, Snoop Dogg, Patti LaBelle, Sly Stone, 50 Cent, Leon Russell and Lana Del Rey to name a few. He is also a unique master of improvising songs on the spot. He even does one that we spontaeously asked him to do, a tune about an upcoming gig with Jeff Silbar and Jodi Siegel. Scary stuff but not for him. Oh and he averages 200 live gigs a year. I guess he likes to be busy!

  • Jack Prather's Music with Mark Turnbull
    Jul 20 2025
    Mark Turnbull joins Beth and Steve to reveal one of the great unsung jazz singer songwriters of the 20th and 21st centuries. Jack was a true hipster before hipsters became hip, someone who had everything needed to be famous and well respected except for that mythological big break. No matter, he breaks big on this podcast. If you dig Mose Allison and Bob Dorough you wil love this.

  • 041425 Wood Family Fun
    Apr 15 2025
    A Random sampling of music that includes or features members of the very Woody family tree of Wood. Of course you've got Nate Wood originals but also a cut from a $300,000,000 project for Sony Classical that Steve produced featuring Sony Classical's 2 top tenors. A totally misguided concept that flopped like Ishtar. Also a song by the cheif of a tribe on Papua that Steve recorded with a handheld recorder. Also hear Beth singing probably the only recorded version of a Jack Tempchin song called "Skateboard Johnny" produced by Honk bass player featuring Frank Cotinola, a bathtub full of chikens from the house next door in Laguna Canyon. And that's just a start.
