I have been a part of Memphis radio since the early seventies. This podcast was born from a series of articles I wrote for the Examiner about Memphis music and musicians. It started with the death of Jim Dickenson, with him died a lot of great stories. Before long, Willie Mitchell was also gone taking his stories with him. There was no documentation of their stories and I wanted to do that, document the stories of Memphis music and musicians. After writing several articles on people like Jimi Jamison, Jim Dickenson, Willie Mitchell, and Shawn Lane I wanted to take it to the next level by doing a radio interview show. I pitched my friends David Fleischman and Jon Scott of All Memphis Music.com who liked the idea and I started recording the interviews. These are not question and answer interviews, they are conversations. Many of the people I interviewed have shared stories that they have never told anyone else in an interview. That was what I was looking for, not just stories but unique stories. The response to the show has been overwhelmingly positive, much better than I ever imagined. Memphis Music InnerView is a production of Planet Earth Complex in partnership with Get Cracken Productions, Jerry Williams is the Executive Producer.
