#588 - John Tesh

The John Tesh Interview is featured on The Paul Leslie Hour

Every now and then someone is a guest on The Paul Leslie Hour that I was aware of my whole life. It was surreal to be invited to interview John Tesh. Tesh is a celebrated pianist, composer, performer, radio & television personality. Growing up, I was aware of him through Entertainment Tonight, and then came to appreciate his music. Many of you are familiar with his hit radio and multi-platform program, Intelligence for Your Life.

As a musician, John Tesh has sold more than 8 million records and performs both as a solo pianist, a 12-piece big band and an 80 piece orchestra. This interview explores a number of topics, but it was in part to discuss his album Big Band which I very much recommend. I’ve been listening to it lately and I also have the DVD of the live concert. John Tesh performed and sang a number of classics from the Great American Songbook on these releases, as well as several originals.

As it turns out, today is John Tesh’s birthday. He still looks as young as ever and I hope you’ll give this interview a listen as well as some of his great albums. 

John Tesh is right here on The Paul Leslie Hour.
