    The Podcast: Diane HInds in conversation with Joe Cortez. SolarRadio.com

    Joe Cortez, born on October 13, 1943, in New York City, embarked on his journey in boxing long before earning acclaim as a respected referee. As a former amateur boxer boasting an impressive record of 43 wins and 2 losses, Cortez secured victory in six Golden Gloves tournaments before transitioning to the professional circuit in 1963, where he achieved an admirable 18-1 record before retiring in 1971. Returning to New York in 1976 after residing in Puerto Rico, Cortez seamlessly transitioned into refereeing amateur matches. His impeccable judgment and commitment to fairness quickly garnered attention from the boxing elite. In 1982, he officiated his first world title bout, overseeing the electrifying clash between WBA junior welterweight champion Aaron Pryor and challenger Miguel Montilla, culminating in Pryor's victorious 12th round TKO. Since then, Cortez has become one of the sport's most esteemed figures, presiding over more than 160 title bouts with characteristic poise and precision. Notable matchups in his portfolio include Tyson vs. Holmes, Duran vs. Barkley, and Bowe vs. Holyfield I, where he shared the ring with luminaries like James Toney, Naseem Hamed, and Bernard Hopkins, earning admiration from fighters and fans alike. Known for his mantra of "Fair But Firm," Cortez's influence extends beyond the ring to the silver screen, where he has appeared as a referee in blockbuster films such as Rocky Balboa and Play It To The Bone. Today, we sit down with Joe Cortez to explore the highlights and challenges of his unparalleled career, reflecting on his enduring legacy and his unwavering dedication to the sport that has defined his life.

    The Music: My Life. In conversation with Richard C McNeff

    In a captivating interview with renowned author Richard C McNeff, we delved into the mysterious world of Aleister Crowley and his profound impact on modern musicians. McNeff's forthcoming book Aleister Crowley MI6:  The Hess Solution spurred the way to exploring how the enigmatic figure of Crowley and his enduring influence on not just on music, resonate even today with icons like Jay Z, Ab Soul, David Bowie, Jimmy Page, Damon Albarn, and more. Aleister Crowley, often referred to as "The Great Beast," was a British occultist and mystic whose life and teachings have fascinated and perplexed generations. McNeff's in-depth research and exploration of Crowley's influence on key musicians unveils a deeper connection between the occultist's philosophies and the creative expression of some of the most celebrated musicians of our time.

    My guest is Habaka, the 2019 Black Music Award recipient of 'Best Performer', jazz, Las Vegas.  She is also known as the Panther of Cremona.  It was unavoidable, following in the family’s footsteps as a singer/songwriter. The family’s heritage is steeped in music. Her grandfather Jeri Jackson was a pianist and promoter, grand mother Irene Jackson a dancer and her mother Mary Ann Jackson a dancer and jazz vocalist. Her own father Melvin Jackson was band leader to Bobby Bluebland for 10 years and saxophonist to BB King for more than a decade. Music was in her blood. Her early life was spent on tour with a cabaret and aged 11 her mother declined an invitation for her child to join the legendary Alvin Ailey Dance troupe and at the age of 13 Habaka spent three years in a psychiatric hospital; a major turning point in her life and faith. Find out how this talented musician over came the feeling that she was ‘singing the devil’s music’ to now appreciating how the music she sings, has a message and how her faith, discovered aged 7, has never failed her.
