When the Music Won’t Let Go, Stories of Musical Fandom.

Dan and Brian speak with Warren Hartman, a songwriter, recording artist, and longtime music director for Kenny Rogers. His perspective as a sideman during Kenny Roger’s many tours gives him some insight into what converts some admirers of artists into devoted followers and extreme fans. In this episode Shai Korman (Friday Night Movie Night host) tells of meeting Weird Al Yankovich when he was a kid. Diana Daly (Social Media and Ourselves host/producer) shares a powerful story about what MeatLoaf and his album Bat Out of Hell meant to her. Finally, Buddy Buttram (drummer) shares a story that makes us wonder if every musician has an origin story, rooted in listening.
