Chip Taylor (Episode 21, 10/20/15)
Amazingly thorough interview with songwriter and gambler Chip Taylor (born James Wesley Voight) referencing his huge catalogue of songs including #1 hits Wild Thing and Angel of the Morning, and his exceptional brothers (actor Jon Voight and geologist Barry Voight who predicted Mount St Helens eruption.). I came upon this podcast accidentally while searching for a different songwriter and was blown away by the professionalism and thoroughness of hosts Scott Bomar and Paul Duncan. They took the time to learn ever relevant aspect of Chip Taylor’s amazing career and used that to bring the listener on an intimate journey through his songs, interlaced with Chip’s recollections and motivations. I highly recommend the Song Craft: Spotlight on Songwriters podcast and look forward to hearing all of their 200 episodes. Matt Mannino

As a fan of song writers this show is a welcome companion on my daily walks. Love to hear the stories from the story tellers themselves and then go and listen or re-listen to the songs!! This is a great listen !
