The Brian Ray Interview is featured on The Paul Leslie Hour.
We’re honored to have you tuning in for an especially magical episode featuring an ultra talent in live and recorded music: Brian Ray.
Paul was asked not long ago, who he has interviewed that was “Just plain cool.” Paul thought about it and said, “Hmmm. Coolest, you said?” He was reminded of an in-person interview he recorded with Brian Ray at a Ritz Carlton hotel back in 2005. As you’ll soon hear, Brian Ray is just a cool, laidback kind of guy. Well, he did grow up in Southern California.
Now, about Brian Ray… He’s a guitarist, singer, songwriter, recording artist, producer. He’s appeared on some great recordings of artists ranging from Etta James, Paul McCartney, Steve Goodman, Willy DeVille, Stephen Bishop, Smokey Robinson and Shakira, etcetera! He’s also toured with Paul McCartney for the last 20 years playing lead, rhythm and bass guitar.
Brian was on tour with Paul McCartney and was kind enough to meet up with Paul. Jeff Pike, Paul’s good buddy recorded the interview as well as some acoustic / vocal performances.
At the time of the interview you’re about to hear, Brian Ray was releasing his debut solo album, “Mondo Magneto.” You’ll get to hear a couple of those songs “recorded live.” You’ll probably want to get the record, which you can get on Amazon or Apple Music. It’s a really phenomenal record featuring some great songwriting, one song even features the late Etta James.
You can also, if you feel up to it, help us in our mission to keep telling the human story. Just go here and we thank everyone who is contributing.
We really hope you enjoy this show with the talented and laidback Brian Ray. Let’s get into the show, shall we?
