Spec Ed #2: The Conversation So Far (Learning To Listen)

On this Special Edition of the True Tunes Podcast, we look back at some special moments from our first 18 months as we have discovered our mission to listen to better music and listen to music better – together. We have gathered some favorite clips from our times with Steve Taylor, Phil Keaggy and Rex Paul, Buddy Miller, Tommee Profitt, Charlie Peacock, Christa Wells, Eddie DeGarmo, Liz Vice, Waterdeep, Ella Mine, Marc Byrd, Daniel Smith, Chris White, Sandra McCracken, Ian Fitchuk, and both Larry Norman and his son Mike. In fact, we have included a previously unheard clip from a long lost conversation with Larry as well as a snippet from an upcoming episode with artist and poet Kevin Max. It’s a look back, and forward, as we take stock of this conversation that is just getting started and contemplate the value of conversation, relationships, and the postures and perspectives that allow us to continue to learn.

Om Podcasten

Music industry veteran, author, artist, and producer John J. Thompson hosts conversations with a diverse panel of artists, songwriters, producers, and industry innovators who seek the deeper resonances in music and culture. Classic and contemporary music is explored for signs of life, light, and beauty on the ”Jukebox” feature as well. Knowing that all music is spiritual, can we sing along with the good, the true, and the beautiful in ways that make us better neighbors, more compelling artists, and richer reflectors of the light by which we live and move and have our being? Let’s try.
