The Ike Stubblefield Interview is featured on The Paul Leslie Hour.
Are you here? Answering that question is optional, but we thank you for listening to this episode of The Paul Leslie Hour featuring an interview with the late Ike Stubblefield, who was known to many as a master of the Hammond B3 and keyboards.
Ike Stubblefield performed on stage with so many great artists: George Benson, B. B. King, the Four Tops, Eric Clapton, Ike & Tina Turner, The Derek Trucks Band, the Jerry Garcia Band and so many others. He was an incredible musician.
It’s kind of funny how the interviewer, Paul E. Leslie met Ike Stubblefield. One New Year’s Eve Ike stopped Paul on the street outside the Fox Theater. Why? Who knows. Maybe he thought Paul looked funny. You just never can tell. They struck up a conversation and it felt so natural that the idea to do an interview soon came up. They recorded this interview at the now-defunct Sambucca Jazz Cafe in Atlanta.
It was a very sad day when we learned Ike Stubblefield passed away in 2021. Ike had a lot of friends and for anyone who say him perform, it was quite an experience.
