Kootch! Worth waiting for! Timing is everything, and his was perfect. It’s taken years to get Danny Kortchmar alone in the Game Changers guest seat, having paid us a couple of previous visits with his Immediate Family brothers. This Danny is kinder, gentler, and oh, so fun. He’s been leaning more and more in this direction to my view since falling in love with Lisa Roy, even after surviving the devastating loss of her life. She was the love of his, and it appears she did him a world of lasting good. Danny will be the first to admit he can be serious and… cranky. No sign of that guy this evening… just great stories of some of the greatest musicians of our time, from one of them, all wonderfully, entertainingly, told. We may have even heard a few previously undocumented firsts… starting as a kid discovering early rock ’n roll, to very soon playing it, summering on Martha’s Vineyard, and the early teenage friendship that would change his life. Jamie, as Kootch calls James Taylor, who talked him into some questionable behavior, then blamed him, classic! Not something I’d imagine or associate with sweet baby James. Their lifelong friendship, their musical collaboration, how it started, and why it ended. Meeting, working, and loving Peter Asher, Lou Adler, Carole King, Russ Kunkel, Leland Sklar, Waddy Wachtel, Linda Rondstadt, and Jackson Browne. The story behind Somebody’s Baby. We talked about his extensive successful producing career (although he has a caveat which was fascinating to hear) - including Jon Bon Jovi, Billy Joel, Toto, and his extensive collaboration with Don Henley, the great and the tough of it. There are no endings with Kootch. Once family, always family. He remains close to all of them. And speaking of family, Danny spoke to the birth, development, and current state of affairs of The Immediate Family, his beloved creation. His frustration with the pandemic’s impact and the conflicting work schedules of his brothers doesn’t dampen his passion for their new album yet to drop, and their soon-to-be-released brilliant Denny Tedesco documentary, Immediate Family. There is remorse that Waddy Wachtel’s commitment as Stevie Nick’s musical director, a position he’s held for 25 years will keep him from 5 scheduled live shows, but Danny did drop some news… The Cars Elliot Easton will be jumping in for those shows, certainly softening the blow. 

This time with Danny was a joyous romp through the musical soundtrack of so much of my life. His songs, and his playing, are forever etched in my heart and soul. The man sure do know how to rock ’n roll. Good God!

Thrown together at the last KIng minute, it's some kind of King special.

[avantgardebarbie]

And it's too late, baby, now it's too late Though we really did try to make it

You were light and breezy, and I knew just what to do Now you look so unhappy and I feel like a fool

It's too late now, darling

Tonight my vintage sheet music from the #CaroleKing / #MauriceSendak collab #ReallyRosie finally arrived. Excuse me while I’m off prepping my upcoming one-man cabaret show. In my basement. 😂 #twodrinkminimum (at Saline, Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmavYKtuFUo/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

【今日のレコード】仕事を始める前にキャロル・キングの『つづれおり』。中古盤をさんざん聴き倒したので2021年再発の新品を購入。これリマスターされたのかな。少し感触が異なるような。曲はどれも最高にいいです。 #CaroleKing #Tapestry #1971release https://www.instagram.com/p/Cl7wW2hpOXl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE MONKEES + SATURDAY MATINEE MUSIC VIDEO – The Monkees “Porpoise Song” (live 2011) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NgV3KLUrhAw This week in 1966, THE MONKEES TV show premiered and changed everything in popular music, television, and multi-media. Someday I’m going to write out my “journey with The Monkees.” Like millions of other pre-teens in 1966-67, I caught on to their music and their cutting-edge show that was a form of rock’n’roll psychedelic vaudeville. Frank Zappa and The Beatles were amongst their fans, and John Lennon said he “never missed an episode.” Little did I imagine that one day I’d professionaly work with The Monkees. 

One day I was doing an interview and was asked, “What’s your favorite Monkees song?” My knee-jerk response is “Porpoise Song.” Besides being my #1 favorite Monkees song to perform and listen to, this was the only uncut footage I could find of us doing “Porpoise Song” on the American wing of the 2011 tour (thanks to Joey PGH1 for capturing this @ Merrillville IN 6-30-11). According to Monkees-authority/historian/manager Andrew Sandoval (who guided the 2011 international tour), the original recording was the most elaborate production in Monkees history. Cashbox magazine compared it to “I Am The Walrus,” and for me it felt like participating in a Pink Floyd set. Written by Carole King & Gerry Goffin (who created the porpoise theme), the song bookended the 1968 film HEAD, the deconstruction of The Monkees mythology.

Today, Live, KOOTCH!!! It's been a long time coming! The founding brother and he last of The Immediate Family to jump. Well, technically, he has done the show twice with said brothers. This time we fly solo.

I've been blessed to know Daniel Kortchmar for some years, thanks to Steve Postell, he played at my book launch in 2015, more blessed to have seen, heard, and witnessed him play many many times over the years... James Taylor, Carole King, Jackson Browne, Linda Ronstadt... to name but some... the iconic songs I know every word to, Somebody's Baby, All She Wants To Do Is Dance, Dirty Laundry, oh come on! The list goes on, and on… from The Section to The Immediate Family and everything in between, nobody rocks like Kootch. And speaking of which, their Denny Tedesco doc, The Immediate Family, is brilliant, an entertaining triumph, and will soon be in a theatre near you. And, he smiles now! This is gonna be epic!
