Steve Postell Live On Game Changers With Vicki Abelson

It's been a long ride with singer/songwriter/producer, Steve Postell. We go back to Bleecker Street in the heady daze of the New York club scene. I was booking the Rock 'N Roll Café and Steve was fresh outta Pure Prairie League. I was RockStar struck. I booked him that day and have continued to for the past 30 + years wherever I went and whatever I did. When I had my book launch at The Federal it was Steve I went to. He put together the most kick-ass jam band, as he always does. Steve has the distinction of being the one musician who's played every single venue I've booked. How lucky am I? We talked about Steve's early days as a kid being mesmerized by his mother's record collection and a guitarist in the park, knowing that was what he wanted to do. From lessons with his early mentor, Richard Nieves, who trained him on guitar, reading music, and singing simultaneously, to Mannes School of Music... playing Broadway, sessions, Pure Prairie League, his own record deal, Little Blue, producing with Steve Ferrone, and John Jones, Night Train Music Club, where he assembled the best of the best, to The Immediate Family, the culmination of his life's work, and dream come true. There are great stories about Dylan, who inspired him, James Taylor, Jackson Browne, David Crosby... meeting Lee Sklar, then Russ Kunkel, Danny Kortchmar, and Waddy Wachtel... and how lightning struck. This angelic voiced angel sang for us, played for us, including some slide guitar, and took us through the non-stop career of a successful working artist. Real-time comments from past bandmate, Dan Hickey and current, Leland Sklar, made the whole deal that much more fun. My heart is full. I loved every minute.
