Folks we ran in to some technical difficulty in Tomball which bumped us off of our podcast schedule so here we are catching up right in the middle of the holidays. Yikes!! We had a fun visit today talking about this and that. We're trying to attach some footage from Tomball, Texas and our Christmas show but as of this writing we'll have to see about that. Have a Happy New Year and a prosperous 2024 and here's to lots more episodes and guests from "The Cowsills Podcast"! Thanks for listening!
With last week's episode with the great Phil Solem having gone on a bit because not only was his story great but we were also visiting an old friend who we knew when he was an up and coming struggling musician like the rest of us. So we have no guest this week but we do catch everyone up on some issues and this and that so enjoy the visit and Merry Christmas!
After listening to this episode of The Cowsills Podcast folks you will learn that our guest, Phil Solem of the Rembrandts, has a rich history that goes way beyond the fact that he and his bandmate, Danny Wilde, as the Rembrandts recorded and released their biggest hit, the theme song from the TV series "Friends" called "I'll Be There For You". It's a long episode but no one has to listen in one sitting there was much to visit about. Phil goes way back with The Cowsills all the way to the "Cocaine Drain Album" days. Hope you enjoy listening it was an awesome visit!
Happy new episode everybody. This week's guest, Marc Nathan, takes us in to the world of the A&R position at a record company. Marc was the guy who signed artists to labels, the A&R guy. He would scour for new music and new talent and play a role in bringing it all to the public. But the story within this amazing accounting was when Marc went to bat for The Cowsills and paid a dear price. Wait until you hear Marc's recounting of the memorable meeting he had with Doug Morris of Atlantic Records regarding The Cowsills and the songs from "Global". You won't believe it!!!
Hello everyone we're here today podcasting live almost because this episode is going up right away. We have no guest this week but Susan gives a great review of the inaugural "Big Easy" cruise she went on. We talk about this and that and get caught up with each other and all of you. Thanks for listening and watching...lots of new guests coming, as Paul says, "...from all walks of life!
Being a "baseball family" we were overjoyed with the opportunity to visit with the legendary Jim Rosenthal, writer of some of the greatest sports books every written. "Nolan Ryan's Pitching Bible" ('91), "Randy Johnson's Power Pitching" ('03), "Tony Gwynn's Total Baseball Player" ('92) and the great "Pitch like a Pro - A Guide for Young Pitchers and Their Coaches from Little League through High School" ('99) and more. We listened to fascinating stories and insights surrounding these famous icons of baseball and Jim's interaction with them. Lots of fun!
Ever wonder what a music publicist does and why it seems every successful team has one? We had a great visit with the legendary music publicist Bob Merlis. Bob was head of publicity at Warner Brothers Records for 30 years before breaking out on his own as a successful independent music publicist working with stars like ZZ Top, Dion, John Mellencamp, Neil Young, it goes on and on, over a brilliant career that's still successful and thriving. Bob even escorted a young 20-something Susan Cowsill on a publicity tour promoting her singles deal with Warner Brothers in the mid-70's. The best news is Bob, as of last week, is now the publicist for The Cowsills!!! Enjoy this unique insight into a unique position in the music industry.
Hello everybody. Well we have one more episode with no guest so you know us we just chat and visit about this and that. Our next two guests are already lined up so next week look for a visit with famed veteran publicist Bob Merlis and following that we'll be visiting with the great baseball sports writer Jim Rosenthal. We are looking forward to lots of great guests this year.... enjoy the episode.

Hi everybody. Today's guest is Jim McCarty...the original and only drummer the Yardbirds have ever had.
