The Colorado Sound S9 EP27 2015

The weekend is over.  I hope you got the chance to go see some live music.

I had a very interesting conversation with one of Colorado’s native musicians yesterday, Dan Treanor, who will be my guest on Offstage Beyond the Music in August.  Now in his late sixties and still going strong, Dan has seen all of the changes of the industry here in the state since he started playing music after returning home from the Vietnam War in the early 70s.  Originally from Pueblo, he recalled bands like the Trolls and a few others I’m going to have to go try and find some recordings of.  I’ve got a couple of records from the Trolls but they don’t sound very good, so I’ve never played them on the show.  I’m honored to have Dan as my guest on the show next month.

In celebration of her 30th Anniversary of making music in Colorado, The Colorado Sound Presents Hazel Miller making her debut at the historic Mishawaka Amphitheatre along with Chris Daniels & the Kings who have also never played the Mish in their 32 yrs of making music in Colorado.  As part of the 1st anniversary of Offstage Beyond the Music, this week’s segment was from Hazel’s session a few month’s ago.

The Colorado Sound S9 EP26

RDP_1271BWCrushed.  Absolutely crushed.  I’ve never been so busy.  Truth: some days I feel it would be easier to have a “real job” with an expected number of hours, and time off to just do leisurely things.  I enjoy no such luxury as I attempt in my final decades to tell as much of the story as I am able about music and musicians in Colorado.  Well, that and doing sound and/or emceeing and/or producing shows and/or rehearsing with the new lineup of Goatz!, back after a nearly six year hiatus (new recordings and/or videos coming  in August).

Hmmm … seems I slipped into the “Chris abyss” (coined by Morris Beegle from Hapi Skratch Entertainment) on that first paragraph.

I completely and utterly screwed up this month’s edition of Offstage …Beyond the Music with Freddi Gowdy.  I got new equipment last month to solve a long standing production quality issue, and didn’t get it right.  So for July, as we celebrate the one year anniversary of the podcast series, I’ve decided to pull out segments from some of my favorites of the past year .. starting off with one from the very first episode with Chris Daniels last July … 

jill-sobuleJill Sobule is one of our native artists who has long gone unnoticed as such among local music fans.  She grew up in Denver, went to St. Mary’s, and to CU before heading off to Spain and other parts on her musical journey. So to lead things off this week I did an artist two-fer with one of her biggest hits, and something from her most recent album “Dottie’s Charms” from 2014 – that was largely influenced by a charm bracelet she found at the bottom of a drawer, “…hung with about 20 pewter charms, including an airplane, the Statue of Liberty and a disc bearing the name Dorothy.”   See playlist below to listen to the song via YouTube.
