The Big Beautiful Bill was 15 00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:07,879 passed in July. You know, the IRS didn't have time 16 00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,599 to change all the forbes. So now everybody's going to 17 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,560 get huge tax refunds. If they were overtime workers, if 18 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:18,599 they're if they had tip income, all those things are 19 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:22,159 going to be refunded those taxes this year where they 20 00:01:22,239 --> 00:01:24,920 filed for their taxes. And then the other thing is 21 00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:27,159 that we've got lots of great new ideas that we're 22 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:29,359 going to put before the American people this year to 23 00:01:29,439 --> 00:01:32,280 make their lives better. The President mentioned in his economic 24 00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:35,319 speech from over here at the White House that we've 25 00:01:35,400 --> 00:01:38,760 got like everybody in the whole cabinet working on trying 26 00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:41,120 to get housing to be more affordable. We're going to 27 00:01:41,159 --> 00:01:44,640 have a plan, a big plan, to announce sometime soon 28 00:01:44,719 --> 00:01:46,640 in the new year. It's going to be really good 29 00:01:46,719 --> 00:01:48,560 news for the American people who feel like it's just 30 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:50,239 not affordable to buy a home anymore. 31 00:01:50,480 --> 00:01:51,079 Speaker 4: Don't forget that. 32 00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:55,280 Speaker 3: Under Joe Biden, the average mortgage payment for the typical 33 00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,560 middle class family who are buying a first time for 34 00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:01,840 the first time a home went fourteen thousand dollars a year, 35 00:02:02,239 --> 00:02:05,159 fourteen thousand dollars a year because of inflation and higher 36 00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:07,400 interest rates. And we've got a plan that's just going 37 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,520 to make that go almost completely reverse. Already we've reduced 38 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,800 that monthly mortgage payment by three thousand. 39 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,719 Speaker 5: And that would be welcome to as my friend. That was, 40 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:19,520 of course, Kevin Hastard, he is the head of the 41 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:20,960 White House Economic Council. 42 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,439 Speaker 6: On all of the good things. 43 00:02:22,479 --> 00:02:24,719 Speaker 5: A Christmas present if you will to you coming in 44 00:02:25,479 --> 00:02:28,319 the new year from the Trump administration.

Today's the 53 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:01,599 anniversary of Tom Bell's Daft and we will talk about 54 00:03:01,599 --> 00:03:05,319 that near the bottom of the hour. Welcome today. We 55 00:03:05,439 --> 00:03:11,599 also had another death in the rock and roll category, 56 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,000 and that he's not as well known. I never thought 57 00:03:15,039 --> 00:03:17,360 he was as famous as she should be because he's 58 00:03:17,479 --> 00:03:23,080 such a great songwriter and such a great musician. 59 00:03:23,120 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 6: And that Christopher Rea passed away today. 60 00:03:26,159 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 5: You might remember the song from nineteen seventy eight, Fool 61 00:03:30,319 --> 00:03:33,400 if you think It's over. That was Chris Raya, and 62 00:03:33,479 --> 00:03:36,319 he passed away today. Days also in the anniversary of 63 00:03:36,439 --> 00:03:40,120 Joe Cocker passed away. You know again, I mean you're 64 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,000 so you are so beautiful. I mean, he doesn't remember 65 00:03:43,039 --> 00:03:47,280 I love that song. Okay, So on the policy front, 66 00:03:48,879 --> 00:03:56,360 we have continuations of stories that are just I guess 67 00:03:57,719 --> 00:04:00,479 from last week, from the week before, or one of 68 00:04:00,599 --> 00:04:05,120 them being the Epstein stuff that will not go away. 69 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,400 Those of you who listen regularly know how disgusted tired 70 00:04:08,479 --> 00:04:11,080 I am of this Epstein story. If I don't hear 71 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,599 the name Jeffrey Epstein again, it would be too soon. 72 00:04:15,039 --> 00:04:19,759 But since all the documents were not released, there are 73 00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:26,639 conniption fits being had. One of the conniption fits, well, 74 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:31,160 you've got to you have this renegade Republican Thomas Massey 75 00:04:31,959 --> 00:04:36,639 and Rowe Kahana. Now Massey was on Disgrace the Nation. 76 00:04:36,879 --> 00:04:42,399 Oh I'm sorry, Face the Nation yesterday and Kahanna was 77 00:04:42,480 --> 00:04:46,439 on that PMS whatever we call ourselves now now channel 78 00:04:46,759 --> 00:04:51,560 MS what MS thirteen now MS MS one hundred. 79 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 6: Now. 80 00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:54,959 Speaker 5: Oh, by the way, it's a big stink over CBS. 81 00:04:55,720 --> 00:05:00,680 Barry Weiss running CBS. I love you, I know you, Barry, 82 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:04,199 but I love you. You are doing some things and 83 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:09,279 there is much gnashing of teeth over them. I'll get 84 00:05:09,319 --> 00:05:13,560 to that. Okay, first, let's do this in order. CAV 85 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:19,199 please cut three, no, no cut cut four, Mister Massey 86 00:05:19,720 --> 00:05:23,800 followed quickly by cut three from PMS. Whatever they are 87 00:05:23,920 --> 00:05:26,920 with Roe Kahana, here is Thomas Massy. 88 00:05:27,759 --> 00:05:29,680 Speaker 4: What are you going to do about it to force 89 00:05:29,759 --> 00:05:34,040 them to comply? I mean, can you do anything? Oh? 90 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 6: Absolutely? 91 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:38,639 Speaker 7: People have talked about and by the way, Todd Blanche 92 00:05:38,720 --> 00:05:41,319 is the face of this, but it's really the Attorney 93 00:05:41,399 --> 00:05:44,800 General's Office, Pam Bondy, who is responsible. And there are 94 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,519 several ways to get at this. Some take longer, summer shorter, 95 00:05:48,959 --> 00:05:52,560 the quickest way, and I think the most expeditious way 96 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:55,720 to get justice for these victims is to bring inherent 97 00:05:55,800 --> 00:06:00,560 contempt against Pam Bondy and that doesn't require going through 98 00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:04,759 the courts and give her And basically Rocanna and I 99 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:07,240 are talking about and drafting that right now. 100 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,240 Speaker 4: I hear you talk about inherent contempt or impeachment. I 101 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:13,600 mean these are words that Democrats have been really careful 102 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:16,279 not to throw around, especially the impeachment word. It's come 103 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,519 up a few times and you've seen leadership walk it back. 104 00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,279 Why is this time different? And do you have the 105 00:06:21,319 --> 00:06:25,000 backing of democratic leadership to actually push forward with impeachment 106 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:26,439 if it comes to that? Is that the next step 107 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:28,800 when we come back in January. It's different because. 108 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,600 Speaker 8: It's coming from Republicans. Still, if it was just me 109 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:34,680 out there or Robert Garcia out there, it would be 110 00:06:34,759 --> 00:06:37,120 seen as, Okay, this is just a democratic thing. This 111 00:06:37,199 --> 00:06:39,399 is going to be Thomas Massy leading it. There are 112 00:06:39,399 --> 00:06:41,199 a few Republicans who are on board with it, but 113 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:44,360 we're not going straight to impeachment. We're starting with contempt. 114 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:46,959 And the idea would be that you should get a 115 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:48,959 thirty day grace period. By the way, she's already in 116 00:06:49,079 --> 00:06:51,399 violation of the law, thirty day grace period to get 117 00:06:51,439 --> 00:06:52,240 the documents out. 118 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 4: Thirty day grace for the sergeant at arms detaining and arresting, 119 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:55,639 because that's what it is. 120 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:57,879 Speaker 8: Well, it would be a fine. We're fine enough up 121 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:00,680 to five thousand dollars each day she doesn't get these 122 00:07:00,759 --> 00:07:03,399 documents out. My goal is not to destroy paybody. I 123 00:07:03,399 --> 00:07:06,079 didn't even know who body was. I've gotten to know 124 00:07:06,319 --> 00:07:10,759 these survivors, and my goal is that on a personal level, 125 00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:15,759 these documents need to come out. They wives were traumatized. 126 00:07:16,079 --> 00:07:19,240 They want these documents out, and whatever we can do 127 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:20,720 to get the documents. 128 00:07:20,279 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 5: Out, yeah, okay, whatever they can do to get the 129 00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:24,439 documents out. 130 00:07:24,600 --> 00:07:24,879 Speaker 6: Fine. 131 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 5: The documents are being staggered in release. There are complaints 132 00:07:28,639 --> 00:07:32,399 coming in. By the way, the story today in the 133 00:07:32,519 --> 00:07:37,240 Daily BS Epstein victims flatly accused the oj of breaking 134 00:07:37,319 --> 00:07:40,800 the law not protecting their identities with release. You've got 135 00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:47,160 hundreds of thousands of documents and they're trying to release them, 136 00:07:47,319 --> 00:07:50,279 and I don't know who they think is supposed to 137 00:07:50,360 --> 00:07:56,759 be doing all the reactions and everything necessary. Okay, fine, anyway, 138 00:07:56,879 --> 00:08:01,560 that's the Epstein news. Democrats are having Clinton, by the way, 139 00:08:01,680 --> 00:08:05,199 apparently according to the Daily Mail, it's a tabloid. You 140 00:08:05,279 --> 00:08:07,759 have to take what you read with the grain. But 141 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:12,519 supposedly Bill Clinton is a little bit ticked off. He's 142 00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:17,439 demanding all the files be released, and some spokesperson whatever, 143 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:20,959 we have nothing to fear from what. I can't care 144 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:27,600 us anyway, whatever. For the Epstein junkies out here, there's 145 00:08:27,639 --> 00:08:33,679 your Epstein fix. I'm moving on. So tired of this 146 00:08:33,879 --> 00:08:38,159 Epstein stuff. I'm sorry, but David, I know they're victims. 147 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,080 I've never said I don't care about them. Tired of 148 00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,080 the old story. People didn't care about this the whole 149 00:08:44,120 --> 00:08:46,960 time Joe Biden was in office. You didn't care one 150 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:50,720 thing about Epstein. Epstein, Epstein. Now all of a sudden, 151 00:08:50,799 --> 00:08:56,360 it's gotta be front news every freaking day. Enough already. Oh, 152 00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:59,639 by the way, Democrats are threatening another shutdown in January, 153 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,039 Mary Christmas, hope you have happy holidays. They're gonna shut 154 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,399 the government down. They want what is it this time? 155 00:09:05,759 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 6: Oh? Yeah, Trump wants to. 156 00:09:08,279 --> 00:09:12,399 Speaker 5: Dismantle the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Bold of Colorado. 157 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:13,559 Speaker 6: Do you really care? 158 00:09:14,480 --> 00:09:17,039 Speaker 5: Do you even know if I said to you what's 159 00:09:17,080 --> 00:09:20,360 in Bold of Colorado that the federal government has a 160 00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:22,879 stake in? How many of you saying, Oh, I know, 161 00:09:23,399 --> 00:09:27,399 it's the Atmospheric Research Center? How dare Donald Trump? 162 00:09:27,519 --> 00:09:27,679 Speaker 9: Cut? 163 00:09:30,080 --> 00:09:34,080 Speaker 5: So now Democrats want to shut down your government once 164 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:38,360 again because Donald Trump is realigning things over at the 165 00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:42,279 Atmospheric Research You know what really their tike? That their 166 00:09:42,399 --> 00:09:46,360 tike that to global warming hoax. All of the slush 167 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,840 fund that's been in this global warming scam for all 168 00:09:49,919 --> 00:09:53,360 these years is coming apart. That's what they're annoyed at. 169 00:09:54,279 --> 00:09:57,120 And I think this is part of that. In fact, 170 00:09:57,600 --> 00:10:00,720 Cut five didn't intend to get this in the first segment. 171 00:10:00,799 --> 00:10:03,200 But since we're on it. The energy we have an 172 00:10:03,279 --> 00:10:07,200 energy secretary and apparently he's actually doing his job. His 173 00:10:07,320 --> 00:10:11,039 name is Chris Wright, and this is Chris Wright on 174 00:10:11,799 --> 00:10:15,440 one of the Sunday shows over the weekend talking about energy. 175 00:10:15,879 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 4: So what's the announcement this morning? 176 00:10:18,399 --> 00:10:22,360 Speaker 10: So, my Department of Energy has announced we're going to 177 00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:26,600 return over thirteen billion dollars to the taxpayers. That's over 178 00:10:26,639 --> 00:10:30,000 one hundred dollars per American family. This was money passed 179 00:10:30,039 --> 00:10:34,120 and slated to be energy subsidies, but we need the 180 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,799 subsidies have been corrosive because they've not only cost taxpayer money, 181 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:40,159 but then they've led to more expensive electricity bills. 182 00:10:40,320 --> 00:10:42,799 Speaker 4: We lose twice. So we're doing everything we can. 183 00:10:42,759 --> 00:10:44,879 Speaker 10: In the Trump administration to stop the rise. 184 00:10:44,720 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 4: In energy prices. 185 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:48,159 Speaker 11: So money that was going to go to green energy 186 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:51,440 to subsize green energy is instead going back to the treasury. 187 00:10:51,960 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 6: Yes, so. 188 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 11: I thought that green energy was going to be pulling 189 00:10:57,759 --> 00:11:00,519 in all the above like a part of the energy 190 00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:04,279 dominance platform. Does this take it off the table? What's 191 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,279 going on with green energy? 192 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:08,399 Speaker 10: And again I don't agree with the name, but with 193 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,399 solar and wind and electric vehicles, which is where most 194 00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:15,799 of the money has gone, they've just barely gotten the 195 00:11:15,919 --> 00:11:18,360 three percent of the United States energy in two and 196 00:11:18,360 --> 00:11:20,440 a half percent of global energy. So it's just been 197 00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:24,399 a massive malinvestment. We've made electricity more expensive, We've pushed 198 00:11:24,519 --> 00:11:27,639 industries and jobs out of our country. Haven't moved the 199 00:11:27,759 --> 00:11:29,879 needle on global greenhouse gas emissions. 200 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:32,279 Speaker 4: It has been as the President said. 201 00:11:32,159 --> 00:11:36,559 Speaker 10: I think he rightfully characterizes it as a scam, a scam. 202 00:11:37,240 --> 00:11:42,159 Speaker 5: Three percent of all energy comes from electric, solar, whatever, 203 00:11:43,279 --> 00:11:47,240 and meanwhile your electricity bills have been rising because of it. 204 00:11:47,639 --> 00:11:50,960 Make that make sense, James, Okay, guess what when you 205 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:55,639 plug in your nice green electric car, you're plugging it 206 00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:01,639 into what You're plugging it into your power plant. What 207 00:12:02,159 --> 00:12:07,320 is used to get power to your power plant the 208 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:12,759 same stuff we've been using, fossil fuels. Your power plant 209 00:12:13,320 --> 00:12:19,320 can't power your life on windmills, and in order to 210 00:12:19,399 --> 00:12:24,200 have your electric, green car, you need fossil fuel. So 211 00:12:25,120 --> 00:12:29,759 it has been an entire scam from day one. And 212 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,919 Donald Trump in this administered thirteen billion dollars they put 213 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,159 for subsidies for people to buy their stuff. So they're 214 00:12:36,159 --> 00:12:39,480 getting rid of it. Good, all right, Immigrations in the 215 00:12:39,559 --> 00:12:43,960 news will move to that also. Fulton County, folks, we 216 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:46,679 got to take a break. What happened in Fulton County 217 00:12:46,799 --> 00:12:50,360 in twenty twenty is coming back to bite. It is 218 00:12:50,600 --> 00:12:55,519 not getting the headlines that it deserves. Democrats and Republicans 219 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,440 in Georgia that were in charge in it down playing 220 00:12:58,519 --> 00:13:01,600 the significance of the story. But it's still out there 221 00:13:01,799 --> 00:13:04,039 and it may. Princess Diana said over a weekend that 222 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,000 this is going to have a big repercussions. We shall 223 00:13:07,039 --> 00:13:11,879 see James Golding snurly, the James Golden Show on the 224 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:22,240 Red Apple Podcast networks, the James Golden Show Entertaining and 225 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:26,000 Informative on the Red Apple Podcast Networks. 226 00:13:26,519 --> 00:13:29,039 Speaker 6: James Golden Snurly now and Georgia. 227 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:34,639 Speaker 5: I mentioned this Fulton County admission that unsigned voting tabulation 228 00:13:36,159 --> 00:13:40,919 happened brings the spotlight back on them. So for almost 229 00:13:42,799 --> 00:13:47,320 almost all of the early voting that took place, the 230 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,840 tapes that are supposed to be signed off on were 231 00:13:49,919 --> 00:13:54,919 not the recorded tapes. Now that has led some people 232 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:59,120 to say, rightly, so, this is a serious violation of rules. 233 00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:02,759 In fact, one of the board members said, look, this 234 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:06,120 could just be lazy, or it could be something really egregious. 235 00:14:07,159 --> 00:14:14,200 But not surprisingly, the Republicans that run the place to saying, Oh, 236 00:14:14,240 --> 00:14:17,639 it's just the clerical error, don't mention it. What it 237 00:14:17,759 --> 00:14:19,879 points to is that the rules weren't followed, that election 238 00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:22,159 should not have been certified. It also points to the 239 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,879 fact that people that were questioning the election results in 240 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,000 Fulton County, and it takes, by the way, are not 241 00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:32,039 the only thing they're alleging. Some of the polling's places, 242 00:14:32,159 --> 00:14:34,399 it turns out, were open till two a m. What 243 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:40,639 sense does that make? It makes none now again, elected 244 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,480 Republicans down there and Democrats in the press are trying 245 00:14:44,519 --> 00:14:48,039 to play this off. Oh, it's just a clerical era. 246 00:14:48,360 --> 00:14:51,879 It is not just the clerical era, folks. Why have 247 00:14:52,159 --> 00:14:58,519 rules if it's if the rules aren't necessary? A all right, 248 00:14:58,559 --> 00:15:01,840 we're coming back. James Snarly with you here, fastest hour 249 00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:05,000 in American media will continue whatever you do. 250 00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,559 Speaker 6: Stay here and don't go away, please. 251 00:15:11,399 --> 00:15:21,279 Speaker 2: James Golden Show on the Red Apple Podcast Network. James 252 00:15:21,360 --> 00:15:26,519 Golden Show Entertaining and Informative on the Red Apple Podcast. 253 00:15:26,159 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 5: Network with me to discuss this. Man is my dear 254 00:15:32,879 --> 00:15:40,200 dear friend Ed Shay welcome, Ed, how are you James? 255 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 12: My god, I'm doing your last broadcast of the year 256 00:15:44,879 --> 00:15:47,879 and I did your first video podcast, so I'm like 257 00:15:47,960 --> 00:15:51,759 the bookends in your life there. I'm doing great. And 258 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,519 three years ago today we lost one of the greatest 259 00:15:55,399 --> 00:16:00,600 R and B record producers arrangers in the world. You know, 260 00:16:00,679 --> 00:16:04,440 I remember getting the call. I was in Costa Mesa 261 00:16:04,519 --> 00:16:08,399 and I was working Johnny Mathis and I got that 262 00:16:08,960 --> 00:16:11,639 email from a friend of mine saying that Tom passed away. 263 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,600 And James, I know, I tried to hook you up 264 00:16:14,639 --> 00:16:17,759 with him. He's in a big enigma to this day. 265 00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:20,639 I don't know what he died of. Well, it's been 266 00:16:20,759 --> 00:16:23,879 in his obituary or his Wikipedia page there for a 267 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:28,000 lengthy illness. But I'm going to repeat myself what I 268 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,840 have said to you over the years. One of the kindest, 269 00:16:31,799 --> 00:16:35,039 most gracious, loving man you would ever want to meet. 270 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:38,320 And he could write tunes, he told me, and again 271 00:16:38,399 --> 00:16:41,679 I mentioned Hughes to call me mister Oshay. He says, 272 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,120 I could write tunes like you were writing a postcard. 273 00:16:44,200 --> 00:16:48,440 He just had this gift of writing these beautiful lyrics. 274 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:51,639 And I just heard that the great springwriting that he 275 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:57,559 did the great orchestrations using Obo, English horns, French horns, 276 00:16:57,720 --> 00:16:59,919 and in the percussion. My world you know, the ye 277 00:17:00,200 --> 00:17:03,279 in the Maarimba. It was just exquisite and it is 278 00:17:03,399 --> 00:17:06,480 to this day. I still get goosebumps. And I don't 279 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:09,480 know if we'll ever reached that level of R and 280 00:17:09,599 --> 00:17:13,279 B that we knew, you know, getting that to the Delphonics. 281 00:17:13,799 --> 00:17:14,839 Speaker 6: He changed everything. 282 00:17:15,480 --> 00:17:16,200 Speaker 12: He changed. 283 00:17:16,759 --> 00:17:20,319 Speaker 5: It wasn't just the arrangements. And by the way, this 284 00:17:20,519 --> 00:17:24,279 went beyond R and B because all of these, so 285 00:17:24,519 --> 00:17:28,119 many of his records crossed as we used to say, 286 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,799 crossed over. I hated that term then. I don't like 287 00:17:30,880 --> 00:17:37,160 it too much now, but they became hits internationally worldwide, 288 00:17:37,359 --> 00:17:43,799 across the board. Great music, but he changed the production 289 00:17:44,839 --> 00:17:47,000 of it, the sound, and people that are not in 290 00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,559 the industry, that don't have it don't understand how that 291 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:56,559 was the sound. He paid attention to detail to everything 292 00:17:56,680 --> 00:18:04,000 he touched. The arrangements were beautiful and sophisticated. Yeah, everything 293 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:09,000 he touched had had a beauty to it. 294 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:13,680 Speaker 12: Absolutely, James. And you know, at one time we were 295 00:18:13,759 --> 00:18:17,039 going to do his lot of his hits with the 296 00:18:17,079 --> 00:18:21,200 Philadelphia Orchestra to we were going to do the best 297 00:18:21,240 --> 00:18:23,960 of Tom Bell like a pop series with the orchestra. 298 00:18:24,519 --> 00:18:28,400 And when the orchestra committee would not let Tom bring 299 00:18:28,480 --> 00:18:32,480 in his guys. Meeting me and Charles Collins and Bobby 300 00:18:32,599 --> 00:18:36,680 Eli and Larry Washington, he said, no, not doing it. 301 00:18:38,000 --> 00:18:42,440 He refused to do something as absolutely tremendous as the 302 00:18:42,519 --> 00:18:46,359 Philly Orchestra because he wanted to bring in his team. 303 00:18:46,880 --> 00:18:51,359 And again I told you in another interview, I remember 304 00:18:51,480 --> 00:18:54,720 Tom flying me out to LA to work with James 305 00:18:54,920 --> 00:18:58,039 Ingram to play the tune at the end of City Slippers. 306 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:01,119 And when I got to La again there was Charles Collins. 307 00:19:01,720 --> 00:19:06,480 You know, the guys. He was a very loyal guy. 308 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,079 And yes he was in the detail, but I'll tell 309 00:19:09,079 --> 00:19:12,559 you why he was in the details. With orchestrations. He 310 00:19:12,680 --> 00:19:16,440 would inquire, he says, ed, does this work one? 311 00:19:16,480 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 6: Marinda? 312 00:19:17,119 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 12: Is this okay? Does this work one? Timpany? And he 313 00:19:19,720 --> 00:19:23,000 would say the same thing with to Charles Collins, you know, 314 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,359 is this part working? So he was he was a student, 315 00:19:27,519 --> 00:19:29,960 you know, a lifetime student like we all are in 316 00:19:30,079 --> 00:19:30,559 the arts. 317 00:19:30,839 --> 00:19:31,839 Speaker 6: It never ends. 318 00:19:32,319 --> 00:19:35,759 Speaker 12: It's a constant, you know, I'll till battles sort of 319 00:19:35,839 --> 00:19:40,200 always trying to perfect. But he was just a beautiful orchestrator. 320 00:19:40,279 --> 00:19:43,119 And again I told you, over the years he was 321 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:47,599 known as the Black Burt Bacharach and Bert took great 322 00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:51,079 attention listening to Tom and Tom with Bert, you know, 323 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,720 with the time changes, they were very intricate, but as 324 00:19:54,759 --> 00:19:57,240 a listener you would never know it. You would never 325 00:19:57,319 --> 00:20:02,759 know it. It's like a I think it's a lost art. 326 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:06,359 I'm really not into what's happening today. I did to 327 00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:09,559 hear some Bruno marsh stuff that I really love, but 328 00:20:12,039 --> 00:20:13,920 end of an era, James, end of an era with 329 00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:16,480 that style of writing, you know where you're using a harp, 330 00:20:16,880 --> 00:20:21,039 a full string section, French horns, Obo, English orn, bassoon, 331 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,920 and still, as one person used to say, it was 332 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,319 R and D wearing a bow tie with Tom, very 333 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:33,720 sophisticated and just easy on the ear. Let's put it 334 00:20:33,799 --> 00:20:35,160 this way, easy on the ear. 335 00:20:36,039 --> 00:20:38,160 Speaker 5: I had the pleasure of meeting him once, and I 336 00:20:38,279 --> 00:20:41,160 have other friends like you who have met who you 337 00:20:41,319 --> 00:20:43,640 worked with him. I have other friends who've met him 338 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:47,319 and know him, and the stories are just amazing to 339 00:20:47,519 --> 00:20:51,599 come from everybody that was connected with he. And also 340 00:20:51,720 --> 00:20:53,920 I just want to mention his co writer on for 341 00:20:54,079 --> 00:20:57,200 his stage here, Linda Creed, who was just aweso phenomenal 342 00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:58,079 human being. 343 00:20:58,599 --> 00:21:02,440 Speaker 12: Absolutely wonderful and with all you know, the stylistics and 344 00:21:02,559 --> 00:21:05,480 everything that we associate with Tom Bell. I mean, we 345 00:21:05,599 --> 00:21:08,799 did other great albums. We worked with the Temptations, We 346 00:21:08,920 --> 00:21:13,319 worked with Phillips Timing. We worked with Gotto Barbieri, which 347 00:21:13,559 --> 00:21:16,960 was an absolute disaster because we did three days of 348 00:21:17,039 --> 00:21:20,799 recordings with Gotto and everything that Tom wanted up tempo. 349 00:21:21,279 --> 00:21:24,400 Goto won it as a ballot. The ballot's got too, 350 00:21:24,559 --> 00:21:27,559 so it was sort of a mismatch. I'm sure those 351 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,279 eight or nine cuts are still in a can somewhere 352 00:21:30,319 --> 00:21:33,680 in Philadelphia. But you know, we worked and again, you know, 353 00:21:33,799 --> 00:21:39,039 we worked with the Silvers and Loretta Linn. We did 354 00:21:39,079 --> 00:21:41,720 a great ballot that's still in that fish to Save 355 00:21:41,839 --> 00:21:45,920 Pittsburgh album with Loretta Lynn and I think it was 356 00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:49,160 either Teddy Pendergast. You know, the list goes on and on. 357 00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:53,200 What Tom has achieved over the years and again always 358 00:21:53,279 --> 00:21:57,839 under the radar, never boasting or bragging. When I was 359 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:01,000 at his home in Billingham, didn't even know that this 360 00:22:01,200 --> 00:22:03,680 man was in the music business. You know, there wasn't 361 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:06,960 an award, There wasn't even a piano in his living room. 362 00:22:07,039 --> 00:22:10,799 He was He wasn't a enigma. He was a mystery, 363 00:22:11,279 --> 00:22:14,720 he really was, but a great human being and musically 364 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:18,160 I can't say enough about the man and I next 365 00:22:18,279 --> 00:22:20,880 to year before. You know, Tom would say, all the 366 00:22:21,000 --> 00:22:24,119 rhythm section, guys, we would get double scale. So we 367 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:27,000 would work. We did like four days of blue roles. 368 00:22:27,039 --> 00:22:30,240 We would do like ten to one, two to five, 369 00:22:30,519 --> 00:22:33,240 and then seven to ten or six to nine, and 370 00:22:33,359 --> 00:22:37,279 we got double scale for that. And if I couldn't, 371 00:22:37,319 --> 00:22:39,000 if I would have to leave early to go to 372 00:22:39,079 --> 00:22:42,839 Atlantic City to work a showroom, he was okay with it. 373 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,480 I would come in the next morning and overdub what 374 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,440 I missed later in that day. So he was a 375 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:53,160 very kind You know, a lot of leaders want to 376 00:22:53,240 --> 00:22:55,240 do that, James. It's like, you know, your book for 377 00:22:55,319 --> 00:22:58,839 the for this nine hours or whatever, you can't leave. 378 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:02,640 And I couldn't. I couldn't stay for the day because 379 00:23:03,079 --> 00:23:04,880 some of the leaders that I worked for in Atlantic 380 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,160 City in the showroom wouldn't let me take off for 381 00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:10,599 an evening show. So Tom was gracious enough to say, 382 00:23:11,000 --> 00:23:14,279 do your thing, we'll overdub you in the morning the 383 00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:17,359 next day. And you know, so we would spend you know, 384 00:23:17,519 --> 00:23:20,079 three hours, maybe we would do two or three tunes 385 00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:25,519 within the three hours overdubbing percussion, Bobby e Lyiwan rhythm guitar, 386 00:23:25,839 --> 00:23:28,960 you know, Larry Washington, maybe on Kungha's and then bongos. 387 00:23:29,039 --> 00:23:32,160 So it was a process, but it was a lot 388 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:35,519 of fun and no anxiety, nothing at all. 389 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:37,000 Speaker 6: Just love it. Yeah. 390 00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,720 Speaker 5: Yeah, So well, the great Tom Bell ladies and gentlemen 391 00:23:40,839 --> 00:23:44,640 passed away from us on this day in twenty twenty, 392 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:48,720 twenty twenty two. And you know, one thing I would 393 00:23:48,839 --> 00:23:51,319 like to one thing I would like to just I'm 394 00:23:51,359 --> 00:23:53,200 just going to throw this out here. You know, maybe 395 00:23:53,279 --> 00:23:56,119 this idea because I never knew about the Philly story too. 396 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,359 You just said it about the Awkard stray. You know, 397 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:02,440 it wouldn't be a bad idea to have an awkarst 398 00:24:02,559 --> 00:24:04,519 or some way. I didn't have to be Philly, but 399 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:08,680 actually do the tribute album for tom Bell. 400 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,200 Speaker 12: Oh, it would be phenomenal. 401 00:24:11,519 --> 00:24:15,279 Speaker 6: It would talk about how to make that happen. That happen. 402 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,240 Speaker 12: You would have to get a producer, you know, and 403 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:21,480 good arrangers. Now, James, a couple of weeks ago you 404 00:24:21,680 --> 00:24:24,880 played Billy Paul Me and Missus Jones. Yeah, and I 405 00:24:25,039 --> 00:24:27,599 listened to that fact solo that fact solo is a 406 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,440 guy by the name of Jack Saith and Jack did 407 00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:33,119 a lot of the Tom Bell sessions and Jack did 408 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:36,039 some arrangements for Johnny Mathis, so he did two of 409 00:24:36,079 --> 00:24:39,119 the Johnny Mathis albums that was out in Philadelphia. 410 00:24:39,680 --> 00:24:41,359 Speaker 6: But I to remember you. 411 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 12: Talking about Billy Paul a couple of weeks ago, and 412 00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:47,640 there were so many unsung heroes in that Philadelphia scene. 413 00:24:48,119 --> 00:24:50,440 Of course, you know, we all know about the Wrecking Crew, 414 00:24:50,599 --> 00:24:53,440 you know Hal Blaine and all the guys. But I 415 00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:57,039 told you once before, I always thought that Philadelphia took 416 00:24:57,079 --> 00:25:01,359 a backseat to Muscle Shoals and you know Rote Town 417 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:04,799 of course, and again all great pitties producing great music. 418 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:09,400 But the Philly sound was a versus Philly sound. 419 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,799 Speaker 5: Was a worldwide sound and it needs to be acknowledged. Yes, 420 00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:17,720 what happened in Philadelphia changed the music world and it 421 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:19,359 needs to be acknowledged. 422 00:25:19,759 --> 00:25:22,839 Speaker 12: Yeah, I told you. I'm sorry to interrupt, but I 423 00:25:22,920 --> 00:25:26,440 told you before Tom really hooked up with Gamble and Huff, 424 00:25:27,079 --> 00:25:30,519 he was working as a record label called Cameo Parkway, 425 00:25:31,000 --> 00:25:33,839 which was you know Bobby ry Dell and d D. 426 00:25:34,119 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 11: Sharp. 427 00:25:34,759 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 12: If you remember the Locomotion and the mashed Potato, all 428 00:25:37,799 --> 00:25:41,799 those records you know from the day, and you know 429 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:45,599 Tom wound up conducting on the road for Chubby Checker 430 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,960 and then eventually, you know, he he got that hit 431 00:25:50,039 --> 00:25:53,480 with the Delphonics, which you know you'll hear in movies 432 00:25:53,559 --> 00:25:56,799 and Quentin Tarantino movie. I hear it with Nicholas Cage 433 00:25:56,839 --> 00:26:02,960 singing it. It's it's universe and like I said, it's worldwide. 434 00:26:03,079 --> 00:26:06,200 It's it's one language. You could be, you know, in 435 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:10,039 China or Japan, and you're still going to get goosebumps 436 00:26:11,039 --> 00:26:14,559 hearing these beautiful string intros. And Bobby Eli used to 437 00:26:14,599 --> 00:26:17,279 say Tom Bell was the king of the intros. His 438 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,880 intros were like magnificent that you would think you were 439 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:24,400 listening to a John Williams film score soundtrack of Hell. 440 00:26:24,519 --> 00:26:27,920 He had those strings. And I also told you before 441 00:26:28,039 --> 00:26:32,680 James here was a guy that was not he They 442 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,519 didn't let him into the Philadelphia Musical Academy. They said 443 00:26:35,599 --> 00:26:39,759 he didn't qualify. And I always remember him saying, mister o'shay, 444 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,960 I could buy that building now, but without any malice. 445 00:26:43,039 --> 00:26:47,160 He found it funny, but he was he learned from 446 00:26:47,559 --> 00:26:50,359 dealing with the guys. Does this work, you know, reading 447 00:26:50,559 --> 00:26:51,720 orchestration books. 448 00:26:52,960 --> 00:26:54,640 Speaker 5: I'm sorry I have to cut you short, but I 449 00:26:54,759 --> 00:26:56,680 have some things.
