    Dj

    Does anyone remember listening to DJs who were good at "Hitting the Post"? This was a special technique where DJs could start talking during the instrumental beginning of a song and then stop talking just in time before the vocals of the artist started.

    Do you remember recording things on the radio to a cassette tape?

    As a kid I would wait to the end of a given year and then record the top 100 songs of that year from radio as it was being broadcasted and counted down to my cassette tape. That was such a thirill for me.

    If you could meet a famous musician, who will you meet?

    It is very sad about R Kelly. He is a great artist.

    Has music lost consistency and hype compared to past years?

    Music today does not carry the melodic quality that it had years ago. Lyrics in a song can mean so much too. One of the great modern song writers I admire to this very day is Harry Chapin from the 70s. One of his great songs is "Taxi" from 1974.

    Does a good song need any promotion to gain recognition?

    A movie producer out there can take just about any song, past or present and promote it very effectively in their movie. I truly believe they have the power to promote a song in the proper manner for the right audience.

    Does anyone else admire The Beach Boys?

    I really liked the harmonizing in their recording of "In my room" and of course "Don't Worry Baby". Another fav of mine is a "Kiss me Baby".

    If you could meet a famous musician, who will you meet?

    I would love to meet Neil Diamond and ask him what inspired him to write such meaningful songs over the years. He is truly a talented writer of our time.

    Which song would you consider to be a masterpiece?

    Love is all you need by the Beatles. The orchestra arrangement is one of the greatest in rock music history.

    Watching movies or reading books?

    I enjoy watching movies more because I learn so much more from watching movies especially historical movies. Reading a book is fine but I get more absorbed into the story by watching a movie about a topic. I tend to watch a movie again multiple times as I keep learning from it the more I watch...
