Scott Wolf - All Strings Considered Podcast

Guitarist Scott Wolf is being widely recognized for his versatility as a performer, teacher, and arranger for classical guitar. Scott most recently received his Doctor of Musical Arts from the University of Southern California, where he studied classical guitar with renowned pedagogue and Los Angeles Guitar Quartet member Scott Tennant. He earned a Master of Music from New England Conservatory under the tutelage of Eliot Fisk and received his Bachelor of Arts at UC San Diego with Dr. Randy Pile.

So begins the bio of Scott Wolf.  Good stuff!  He's also got a nice little podcast going, they are focused on classical and I find the interviews with the flamenco guitarists especially exciting.  Go check it out, but there's one with Adam Del Monte and one with Grisha Goryachev.   The podcasts are really well produced, absolutely pro quality.

Delta-Slider Radio? More Thoughts

Update - Really just one new thought.  What about a podcast once in a while?  A show that you can play on the computer, download from iTunes, play on your mp3 player...???

Hey loyal readers.  I need your input!  I’ve been thinking of starting up an Internet radio station on Live365.com that would, of course be focused on the type of music I usually feature here on the blog.

Since it is the type of set-up that pays the royalties and all that jazz I can play anything and everything you and I want to hear.  American Primitive, blues and even flamenco.  I know, weird mix.

But I have a lot of questions.  And that’s where you come in.  Please, please, please give me some feedback on this.  I don’t want to put a ton of work into this thing and then have it broadcasting to a vacuum.  I need to know if you would go to the site, sign up (free) and listen to the station.

Here's some things I would like to hear about:

Have you ever heard of Live365?  Is there a better site?

Do you already listen to Internet radio?

If so, is it working for you or are you looking for something better?  What would ‘better’ be to you?

Would you listen for free?

There is also a VIP membership (for a fee, of course).  Will you pay to listen to Internet radio?

If you are a musician with unreleased music, would you be interested in having your music played on this station?  

I’m looking for answers to these questions and any general feedback about this idea that you might have.

Leave me a comment with your thoughts.
