    Brian Hyland talks SEALED WITH A KISS & other Rock Classics

    Brian Hyland is known as the voice of Summer Love, & is a pioneer of Rock N Roll.  He sang one of my favorite songs, in fact it’s probably one of almost everyone’s favorite songs & one of the great classics of all time as it is on every karaoke song sheet…Sealed With a Kiss, which has probably been sung billions of times in karaoke. His journey through music is nothing short of legendary. At the ripe young age of just 16, he skyrocketed to stardom with his infectious hit, “Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini,” claiming the coveted #1 spot across the nation & earning him a prestigious Gold Record. But..this was just the beginning of a remarkable musical odyssey.   Alongside the dynamic duo of Gary Geld & Peter Udell, he had hits like “Let Me Belong to You,” “Ginny Come Lately,” the world wide phenom “Sealed with a Kiss,” & “Warmed-over Kisses” solidifying his status as a household name.   He collaborated with luminaries such as Snuff Garrett, Leon Russell, &  JJ Cale, delivering hits like “The Joker Went Wild” & “Run, Run, Look and See,” which soared into the top 20 on the charts.   We discuss:   -Where Brian grew up (right near me!) -How & when did this music bug germinate in you. -His meteoric rise which continued with the monumental success of Curtis Mayfield’s “Gypsy Woman,” a timeless anthem that resonated globally, selling over 3 million copies & produced by the legendary Del Shannon who was known for his megahit Runaway.   -How his penchant for reinvention shone brightly with his rendition of Jackie Wilson’s “Lonely Teardrops,” capturing the essence of soulful melodies with unmatched finesse. -How In 1977 he moved to New Orleans to work with Allen Toussaint.  Allen produced an album with Brian called “In a State of Bayou.” The album was loved by the critics and was one of the best pieces music he ever did. -After 60 years since the release of ‘Sealed with a Kiss’, Brian reunited with Peter Udell. Peter penned a Christmas song & invited Brian to record it. The song, titled ‘A Little Bit of Christmas Time’, was released at the end of Nov. 2023.  -How Brian continues to grace stages & studios with his timeless melodies, with a legacy as a true icon of the music industry which seems to only grow stronger with each passing beat. -“Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini…now those are some memorable lyrics. What year was that recorded & how did that song & those iconic lyrics come about. -How long did it take for your next hit song and what song was that? -Sealed With a Kiss.  How did that song come about and was it about someone specific? -What keeps Brian still performing 65 years after his first big hit?

    𝐇𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐢𝐧'𝐬 "Cat's In The Cradle" documentary from son Jason Chapin

    Jason Chapin is the son of Harry Chapin, one of the greatest recording artists of the 1970’s with two of the biggest and most memorable hits of all time: Taxi and 1974’s monumental hit Cat's in the Cradle.  Harry Chapin tragically died in 1981 in an auto accident in Long Island, NY. On the 50th anniversary of Cat's in the Cradle's hitting the charts as #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 for the week of December 21, 1974, Jason co-produced an award-winning documentary, Harry Chapin - Cat's In the Cradle: The Song that Changed Our Lives.  Included in the film are musical giants like Billy Joel, Judy Collins, Pat Benatar, Dee Snider, Mandy Patinkin & others who weigh in on Harry's legacy. These iconic lyrics from the chorus are among the most famous from any song in history: And the cat's in the cradle and the silver spoon Little Boy Blue and the man in the moon "When you comin' home, dad?" "I don’t know when, but we’ll get together then You know we’ll have a good time then." We discuss: -Why now with a documentary in the 50th anniversary of the song. -Who was the child that arrived? -How did Harry steal the song from his wife? -What do you suppose your mom Sandy Chapin meant by “We don’t know life’s lessons until too late?” - Which part of the 60% in Taxi that is true is actually true? -Judy Colins - "Harry had lyrically the human touch. Genius of putting scenes together that happened in real life." -Billy Joel - "It was all about humanity.  Not politics, but what it’s like to be a human & the foibles & failure & struggles."

What made you choose Mantle, Ruth & Koufax to write about? -Analytics had become the story of the game, not the people who play it.
