This podcast looks at my song “Jack of All Trades” and walks through how a tune can change between the original draft and the demo – which is included in the podcast – and how you sometimes keep tweaking while recording the CD version. (There’s often no such thing as a final draft…just the last version that you played or recorded.)

I also talk about the story behind the lyric, “I Even Wrote for Jay Leno one time” and include a few audio clips: Two samples of what I wrote for Mr. Leno, and one relic of me doing standup back in the 80s. (But really, who wasn’t doing standup back in the 80s?)
