Inside MusiCast - Episode 34 (Greg Mathieson)

This edition of Inside MusiCast takes us into the mind and music of a true native of Southern California, where at a very young age he was playing piano, and by high school he was learning harmony from one of Stan Kentons principal arrangers. Fast forward through a career that has spanned three decades and youll find a master arranger, producer, and session player who has left an impressive mark on many musical genres. Youll find his musical genius injected into hits for Faith Hill and Randy Travis; Christina Aguilera and Tina Turner; Donna Summer and Barbara Streisand; Manhattan Transfer and Larry Carlton; and Helen Baylor and Andre Crouch. In the jazz scene, his highly acclaimed 'Baked Potato Super Live', recorded with Toto members Steve Lukather and Jeff Porcaro, along with 'Pops' Popwell from the Jazz Crusaders, shook up the music scene as one of the freshest live jazz recordings in history. It still remains as a 'must have' among musical aficionados to this day. His jazz collaborations continue to this day. Whether performing live, in studio or even on television, our guest also continues to be in high demand internationally. Inside MusiCast welcomes the master of the West Coast Groove, Greg Mathieson.

Buffed Bods

 With enough lacquer applied and enough time for it all to dry sufficiently (at least 3 weeks), it's time to finally buff out the finishes on the guitar bodies.

One small problem I had - no buffer.  It can be done by hand, sanding using finer and finer grits until you reach a point where you can use a polishing wheel, like perhaps a lambs' wool bonnet or foam pad for my DA.  The process is fairly labor intensive, but certainly doable.  I had another idea...

About 10-15 years ago, I built my own drum sander.  I didn't know if I wanted to spend too much on a factory unit (besides not having enough cash to do so at the time), so it was a good way to see if I would actually use one enough to warrant purchasing one.   It worked well enough, I used it for 4 or 5 years - enough to wear through the formica top sliding things under the drum to the point it needed replacing.  I replaced it with a Performax 22-44 drum sander.  I tore apart the old sander and was never quite sure what I was going to do with the drum: 

Many luthiers use a series of 12" cotton buffing wheels charged with a dry compound.  The buffing arbors sold for this purpose (and the subsequent buffing wheels) usually use a 3/4" rod as their base.  It just so happens that's what I used for the drum - so, I cut the plywood drum off of the rod:

 The rod already had keyway slots cut into it (by a friend), so mounting the pulley would be simple.  After that I got a hold of a 3/4"die and put some threads on one end to mount the wheels.  I picked up a couple arbor plates from LMII for the job and ordered some cotton buffing wheels.  All I needed was a motor to run the affair.  The 3 hp motor I had used for the drum sander would have worked, but was actually too powerful...  An arbor like this works best with about a 1/4 hp motor, that way the buffs can drag down the motor rather than power through - which could burn through the lacquer.

The only 1/4 hp motor I have on hand is this old warhorse:

 It's an old Wagner Electric repulsion-induction motor (no capacitor), complete with oil ports for the bearings.  It's probably 60 years old, and may be even older.  I got it out of a pile of motors dad had years ago, I think he said it originally powered a band saw of some sort.  I cleaned it up, re-oiled the bearings and pressed it back into service.

 It's a wonderful old motor, it works perfectly.  I now have a buffer setup - at least for the time being.  I'll have to make a more permanent assembly at some point, but for now, this works.

For the guitar bodies, I started off by wet-sanding the finishes to remove the orange peel:

 I worked up through the grits, starting at 600 and going up through 1500.  I worked until there was a nice even sheen on all faces, being careful not to cut through the finish, especially at the edges.

 Then it was over to my "new" buffer with each body.  With each I started with Menzerna "Fine" grit compound, followed by "Extra Fine", then finally used a Meguiar's swirl remover.

 Each grit got its own wheel, so not to cross-contaminate.  After all was finished, I polished each with paste wax.

 For the life of me, I can't take a decent photo of the black body.  Here's as good of a one as I've been able to get it:

 

 

 

 Next up is to install nuts, then sand and polish the necks and install them.  Then I can install the hardware and string these up....

Inside MusiCast - Episode 29 (Brian Bromberg)

When Brian Bromberg got his real break as a jazz bassist at the age of nineteen, he had already been playing professionally for six years. Yeah, that would make him thirteen when he started playing gigs at jazz clubs and events in Tuscon, Arizona. But, it was Bill Evans' bassist who connected him with the jazz legend Stan Getz, who was shopping for a touring bassist at the time. And with one phone call from Stan, he had the gig. Today, as a seasoned bassist, Brian Bromberg has been described as one of the best 100 bassists in the 20th century. This is due to his remarkable proficiency as a technician, player and composer. Brian is a true jazz bassist. Hes also a contemporary smooth jazz artist that has turned the ear of music lovers and audiophiles that see his true passion and dedication to his craft. On his latest solo release, he invited heavy-hitter friends such as Lee Ritenour, Kirk Whalum, Jeff Lorber, Boney James, Rick Braun, George Duke, and Vinnie Colaiuta to contribute their talents to this truly hybrid jazz recording called 'Downright Upright'. Its a remarkable project and we highly recommend this album. Inside MusiCast welcomes Brian Bromberg.

It is a testament that Bill has landed on his own two feet and has created arguably his best solo work to date, but on his own terms. Hes teamed up with an amazing group of musicians: George Hawkins, Jr. on bass; Bruce Gaitsch on guitars; and Billy Ward on drums and percussion. To put the finishing touches on the album, he called on his talented family to contribute at every level of the project: His wife Tamara on lyrics and vocals, and his son Will on vocals, playing keyboards and writing. No Place Left To Fall delivers thirteen solid songs that are all well-built and designed to create a cohesive project. It was recorded the old fashion way - four great musicians collaborating in one room creating magic. In other words, Bill has written an album, not just songs. Inside MusiCast welcomes a reenergized classic, Bill Champlin.

From Michael Jacksons 'Off The Wall' to Quincy Jones 'The Dude'; from Smokey Robinsons 'One Heartbeat' to Anita Bakers 'Rapture'; from Joe Samples 'Spellbound' to Ricky Lee Jones 'Flying Cowboys', youll find his uniquely experienced groove added to each hit. Because of his ability to deliver the right feel for the right project, he has been one of Quincy Jones go-to drummers since 1979, and also Barbra Streisands since 1993.

Inside MusiCast - Episode 59 (Stephen Bishop)

Songwriters are very special people. Theyre the ones who battle with themselves and suffer through an amazingly creative process that most take for granted. When you listen to the songs that Stephen Bishop has written over his career, you find an honesty and transparency that has allowed him to deliver hits such as On And On and Save It For A Rainy Day. His career actually began as a songwriter long before he wrote songs for himself. In fact, one of his first collaborations was with Art Garfunkel, who discovered his songwriting and vocal talent and invited him to sing and also contribute two tracks to his legendary Breakaway project. He has penned songs for Diana Ross, Barbra Streisand, Bette Midler, Steve Perry, Kenny Loggins, The Four Tops and also Pavarotti. Widening the body of his work, he sang the hit theme It Might Be You from the movie Tootsie and also has written and sung on 13 other films, including Animal House and White Knights, from which he was nominated for two Grammys and an Oscar for his song, Separate Lives. Inside MusiCast welcomes a gifted songwriter, Stephen Bishop.

Randy Goodrum Guitars & Music

Randy Goodrum has a gift. And for over thirty years, he\'s shared it with us all in the form of hit songs that are timeless. His compositions have been recorded by artists such as Anne Murray, England Dan and John Ford Coley, Toto, Chicago, Steve Perry, Al Jarreau, Johnny Lange, Steve Lukather and, well, this list goes on and on. Goodrums extensive work with Chet Atkins early on helped to open the door to opportunities that would blossom for the rest of his career. But his success has not been a consequence of luck. It took the classically trained pianist about ten years before a songwriting effort would be recorded. Hes achieved an elite status in the world of songwriters and his accomplishments are as heralded as such names as Burt Bacharach, Carole King, Paul Williams, Carol Bayer Sager, and Paul Simon. Inside MusiCast is pleased to welcome an icon in the music business, Randy Goodrum.

Guitars Are A Ton Of Fun

It\'s time to change the strings on one of my guitars. It is not something I like to do. Changing guitar strings is a tedious task. But it needs to be done.

If you don\'t change your strings fairly often, the notes you play will thud instead of ring. That\'s not good. You want to hear clearly each individual note that is played.

A great guitarist can make a solo sing like Emmylou Harris, growl the blues like John Lee Hooker or sneer like Mick Jagger. But not even the best can do any of those things with dead strings.

Rock stars probably have people who change guitar strings for them. That must be nice, but I don\'t know what it\'s like to be a rock star. I play in a bar band. It\'s a very good bar band, but it\'s still a bar band. Nobody is going to get famous here.

I\'ve been playing in bar bands since I was 15 years old, back in the days when a punk kid could be in a bar if he had a guitar slung over his shoulder. The more often you play, the more often you need to change your guitar strings. And my current bar band has been very busy lately.

Bar bands often perform for people who are loud, rowdy and liquored up. This is particularly true during Mardi Gras season. Two recent gigs come to mind. My band played at a bar the evening of parade day and then played at another the night of Fat Tuesday. The revelers were out in force late into both evenings

There\'s nothing quite like trying to execute a difficult guitar part, while also trying to sing something dead-on, and have some chick stumble on stage and drape Mardi Gras beads around your neck. She almost knocked over my microphone stand on her way off the stage.

But it\'s all part of the deal. You just do your best to keep the song going.

I had a well-deserved break the weekend after Mardi Gras. So I decided to take in a different type of performance, something less crazy. I attended a school play, two of them, in fact. I went to a middle school performance on a Saturday and a high school production on a Sunday.

The middle school production was \"Seussical Jr.\" It was based on the writings of Dr. Seuss. The high school production was \"Oklahoma!\" Both shows were outstanding.

There\'s something pure about going to see a school musical. It\'s nice to see young, talented kids who have worked hard perform in front of an appreciative audience. The audience usually includes proud parents who have children in the production.

I was among those proud parents at both shows I attended. Emmy, my youngest daughter, performed in the middle school production. Kate, my oldest daughter, was part of the cast of \"Oklahoma!\"

My girls are musically talented. Both started taking private piano lessons when they were very young. (Sue Slivka, if you\'re reading this, I thank you.) Kate plays piano, violin and guitar. Emmy plays piano, violin and cello. Both also receive private voice lessons.

I love watching my daughters perform. I\'ve attended quite a few concerts, recitals and school plays. An interesting aside: Tickets to \"Oklahoma!\" cost $10 each. If you came to see my bar band perform on Fat Tuesday, you paid a $5 cover charge to get in the door. That means people paid more to see Kate than they did to see me.
