About this listen

It's family time on the Piano Girl Podcast with Robin Meloy Goldsby. In the first story, "The Notes that Got Away, you'll meet Bob Rawsthorne, Robin's drummer dad, as he takes a tour of the many places that once featured live music. Where did all the notes go?

"Driving anywhere in the greater Pittsburgh area with my dad, eighty-two year old drummer Bob Rawsthorne, means listening to dozens of stories pulled from over six decades of gigs in vanished venues. We can hardly cross a strip-malled intersection without him pointing at a corner and blurting out a tale that involves skullduggery, musical madness, or management idiocy."

In the second story, "Badass Randy and the Beauty Queens," Robin Goldsby flashes back fifty years to celebrate the audacity of her little sister Randy, who takes on the thankless task of judging a childhood beauty contest. Lessons galore for anyone in the music business. "You want the tiara? Make it yourself."

Featuring the title track from Goldsby's newest solo piano album, Home and Away.
