122. Jimmy Vivino on Al Kooper 'Super Session w Mike Bloomfield & Stephen Stills'

Guitar legend, multi-instrumentalist and bandleader of Conan's Basic Cable Band - Jimmy Vivino - joins me to discuss the classic album that kicked off the jam band era: Al Kooper, Mike Bloomfield and Stephen Stills' "Super Session" (1968).

Jimmy talks about his long friendship and collaborations with Al Kooper, the career paths that led each of the major players to this record, and tells amazing stories from his own storied career in rock'n'roll, including playing bass with Springsteen in the studio, getting chewed out by Chuck Berry on stage mid-song, jamming with a shirtless Keith Richards, when David Bowie played him a song he wrote about Jimmy’s brother, how nothing on a Beatles record is ‘un-fucked-with’ and why you should always meet your heroes.

My Favorite Album is a podcast unpacking the great works of pop music. Each episode features a different songwriter or musician discussing their favorite album of all time - their history with it, the making of the album, individual songs and the album’s influence on their own music.

296. Inside David Byrne's American Utopia with percussionist Jacquelene Acevedo

New episodes are back for 2020! After being recently knocked out by David Byrne's American Utopia on Broadway, I connected with brilliant percussionist Jacquelene Acevedo and asked her to join me on the show to go behind the scenes on this fascinating show. We talk about everything from how her dance background informed the show's unique choreography, the technical demands of staying mobile while playing, joining the show for Broadway after the world tour, her favorite songs in the set to perform, audience reactions, how the show spreads hope and teaches us to be engaged members of society and which celebrities have dropped in to see the performance.
