Throwback Wednesday

Episode 116 As a very lucky adult, I have toured the US and Europe many times, singing and playing guitar for people. But in my younger years – when I was the handsome young man you see in this photo – the music I made was keyboard based. When I was a senior in high school, I was in a synthesizer band called Pink Aftershock. We released a cassette tape of some of our originals songs on this date 35 years ago, November 17, 1986. That tape was the first release from a small indie label I operated called Slamdek which issued more than 40 releases by Louisville artists over the following decade. I have always loved the way all the notes are just laid out in front of you on a piano or synthesizer. It makes more visual sense to me than the way they are stacked on a guitar. You can see all the notes at once and choose the colors you'd like to blend. For today's episode, I used some sounds and techniques that reminded me of the music I loved while growing up, and had a lot of fun combining them with some of the approaches I have been using in music since then. I hope you enjoy it. Music: "Throwback Wednesday" by Scott Ritcher Nov. 17th Music BMI Associate producer: Betsy McClimans

Bisquick

Episode 114 In the middle of the supermarket, the protagonist of today's 44-second audio drama comes to a painful realization. As omniscient observers, we know he shouldn't be so hard on himself. Despite what the product's name might suggest, Bisquick can be used for much more than quickly making biscuits. Pancakes, quiches, and pizza crusts can also be found in its wheelhouse.

A Message from the Chattahoochee River Strangler

Episode 112 The charming and affable Chattahoochee River Strangler stops by with a personal message for listeners of Here's the Tower. He doesn't care for the nickname the media has invented for him, nor is he a fan of the way he was portrayed as evil and mysterious on an earlier episode of this program. He's so likable and easygoing, the least we can do is give Terry Wayne MacAnaulty a few minutes of our time to set the record straight. Music: "Blue Creek Trail" by Dan Lebowitz Associate producer: Betsy McClimans
