    • The Natalie Years
      Jul 18 2023

      Come along with us on this journey as we discuss the years that Gene spent arranging and producing several albums for Natalie Cole, working alongside Marvin Yancy and Chuck Jackson.  We make a few detours (per usual) and discuss Gene's arranging philosophy, and he gives some insight into who he might choose for his fantasy rhythm section.

    • Stony Island
      Sep 5 2022

      We go on a LOT of tangents during this episode, per usual, but it's the story of how Gene Barge met Andy Davis and Tamar Hoffs, and got involved in Stony Island. We talk about all of the wonderful cast members -- many of whom became stars in their own right.

      For more information on Andy's body of work, and to view the documentary on the making of Stony Island, visit http://www.andrewdavisfilms.com.

      Special notes:

      Gene was sitting in a very creaky chair during our chat.  We apologize for the annoying noise. :-) 

      Also, to clarify, Larry Ball and Tennyson Stephens co-wrote Percy's Theme for Stony Island.
