Inside the Mind of James Altucher
When I first sat down with James Altucher at his Upper West Side Manhattan home/office, I wasn’t sure what to expect… or what direction our conversation would take. But the next couple hours took us on a journey through computer geekdom, cryptocurrency, politics, entrepreneurship, book authoring, standup comedy and a number of other topics. It’s […]

Still Sowing the Seeds of Love
While on a nostalgic “behind the music” run via YouTube, I came across Tears for Fears “Sowing the Seeds of Love”. I remember when the album came out and the first time I saw the music video. Both were clearly a tribute to the influence of The Beatles. How do you pull off the rhythm […]

Heart of the Sunrise by Anderson, Rabin and Wakeman

One of my all-time favorite bands, their syncopated rhythms with changing time signatures, frenetic bass lines, virtuoso-like guitar solos, dramatic keyboards and unmistakable vocals are instantly recognizable… and never duplicated.
