#706 - Brian Galvin of the KISS Coffeehouse The Brian Galvin Interview is featured on The Paul Leslie Hour. This is an interview from the archives that’s fairly atypical, really. Paul was invited to the Grand Opening of the KISS Coffeehouse in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Yes, you heard that right. KISS Coffeehouse, and we mean KISS as in, the rock band. The KISS Coffeehouse was open from 2006 to 2013 and was officially licensed by the band KISS. You should see pictures of the place. So, that day Paul got in his trusty pickup truck and headed to Myrtle Beach with his traveling confederate and dear friend Jeff Pike. They were going to be able to ask and record some questions of Gene Simmons of KISS and Paul Stanley of KISS as well as the Creator of the KISS Coffeehouse, Brian Galvin. You’ll be meeting Brian in just a moment. Really a charming guy. There’s a lot of details to this tale, and maybe Paul will tell us one of these days. Long story short, Paul never got to interview Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley. Let’s just say that a maniacal, unbalanced individual in an 18-wheeler had something to do with their delay. Paul and his pal Jeff Pike are grateful that they escaped with their lives. The pickup truck got them to Myrtle Beach, but there was some considerable damage. At the end of the night, there was Paul and Jeff: grateful to still have your feet on the ground and breathing air. Upon returning to Atlanta they were able to setup a phone interview with Brian Galvin of the KISS Coffeehouse. We have it for your listening pleasure and for historical research purposes, of course. Real quick, would you be able to help keep The Paul Leslie Hour going? We’ve been going for 18 years now and it’s made possible through the listeners. Just go to http://www.thepaulleslie.com/support We thank you for your support. So…whether you’re a KISS fan, curiosity seeker or dedicated listener, now it’s time to hear this interview.

#703 - St. Somewhere The St. Somewhere Interview is featured on The Paul Leslie Hour Some of you heard Paul’s interview with Matt Hall, a singer who got his fame with the band St. Somewhere. Paul was a great fan of the band, as most certainly many of you are. Before St. Somewhere broke up and after Matt Hall and Aram Takvoryan departed, the band consisted of Quincy Yeates, Kevin Wiley, Trey Sansom and Dave Sansom. They were a great band under that incarnation also. Paul was pleased to interview them in-studio prior to one of their concerts. He was still learning the craft of interviewing and it was not easy and as Paul sometimes remarks, it’s still not easy to interview an entire band. You know, The Paul Leslie Hour is basically a semi-public archive of tons of recorded interviews that we make available to you. It takes work and time, but thanks to you all - it keeps on chuggin’ along. You can help. Just go to http://www.thepaulleslie.com/support We thank everyone who is contributing.

#702 - Jim Morris The Jim Morris Interview is featured on The Paul Leslie Hour. This is an interview from the archives with someone who won the hearts of so many people, who has since passed away. Jim Morris was perhaps the most popular independent singer-songwriter and recording artist making island-inflected music. He was quite a songwriter and his albums are filled with some great stories. To say he was a Jimmy Buffett clone is not at all accurate. Although influenced by Jimmy Buffett, Jim Morris was even more influenced by singer-songwriter Jerry Jeff Walker and much of his songwriting was very lyrical. He was a storyteller first and foremost. This interview Paul did with Jim Morris was recorded in an empty bar in Key West, Florida several years back. He told the story behind several of his popular songs and how he came to be the Jim Morris people traveled very far to see and hear. If this interview increases interest in his great work, our mission is accomplished.

#701 - Gene Mitchell and Paul Leslie LandShark Lager Tasting Gene Mitchell and Paul Leslie have a LandShark Lager Tasting on The Paul Leslie Hour. Hey and welcome to an episode of The Paul Leslie Hour that’s a bit of an anomaly. Okay? So, this segment was an idea Paul Leslie dreamed up with the smart folks at Margaritaville Brewing Company in Jacksonville, Florida, that’s the Sunshine State. Now, we should note that Margaritaville Brewing Company is a part of Anheuser-Busch out of St. Louis, Missouri. Ya know, Missouri—the Show-Me-State. Anyhow, this tidbit of trivia and two bucks may get you a cup of coffee, maybe a beer in a dive bar. Paul Leslie was the first person in the state of Georgia to drink a Landshark Lager, which is an island-style lager. It’s a beer that you can drink with a lime wedge…or without. We don’t like to tell people what to do. At the time, you couldn’t even get Landshark Lager in Georgia. Well, there’s always a way around everything. The folks who make the beer sent it to Singer-Songwriter Gene Mitchell. Gene Mitchell is a great Florida-based artist in the world of island music. I mean, he’s like the best. He’s so talented and also has a tiki bar at his house. What a guy. Anyhow, the brewers sent a couple of cases of Landshark Lager to Gene Mitchell who in turn sent one case up to Paul. They sampled the beer via telephone which was broadcast over the radio. It was an interstate beer-sampling, which you are about to listen to. Paul was told he was the first person in Georgia to drink one. You know, we mentioned the 2 dollars. The Paul Leslie Hour could use your help, no matter what the amount we are kept going by you the listeners. Simply go to http://www.thepaulleslie.com/support We thank everyone who is contributing. It was the other day, Jeff and Allison stopped by The Paul Leslie Hour world headquarters. The brought a bottle of something and a little lime wedge.

This episode features an interview with clarinetist and recording artist David Krakauer. It is not often an album is so instantly alluring as David Krakauer’s “The Big Picture.” David Krakaeur is a clarinetist extraordinaire and “The Big Picture” is his renditions of 12 songs from major movies throughout the years…and what a collection it is! At the forefront is the clarinet, but what makes this record so great is how innovative Krakauer is at interpreting the songs. Perhaps the most represented are songs from Woody Allen films: “Si Tu Vois Ma Mère” composed by Sidney Bechet which appeared in Midnight in Paris among others. Variety is key here. There’s Krakauer’s cover of “People,” made famous by Barbra Streisand in Funny Girl, flawlessly followed by the Sheldon Harnick & Jerry Bock song “Tradition” from Fiddler on the Roof. All it took was listening to “The Big Picture” once and Paul knew Krakauer was an artist he had to speak to. We hope you enjoy their heart-to-heart interview. Just remember, we need your support.

It created a sensation, and there was never a tune Paul played that would inevitably create a buzz every single time. Same goes for everyone who encountered the song. Henry, the engineer thought it was great! When Paul and Jeff were in the studio producing the radio show, there was mutual affection for the song. As they say, “Shoulda been a hit.” Well, you just never know. When Paul got ahold of the Greezy Joe & The Cheap and Easy Band’s album “Sail On,” he felt fortunate. Why?
