  • Steve Katz

    Robert, you’ve done it again—taken me back to the 60’s folk/rock/jazz era that shaped me, and during which we came together in Boston to introduce those sounds to our radio listeners. Steve Katz (no relation that I know of, but who knows?) was a wonderful guest, as was his music on certainly one of my favorite albums of all, “Child is Father to the Man,” which I still play with unashamed sentimentality. Steve’s vocals have torn at the heart for 55 years, and now I know why. I have to cut this sh... more

  • Informative and extremely entertaining

    Listened to the Brian Hyland interview yesterday and I was amazed at how much ground Robert covered in his interview, asking all the pertinent questions I would want to know the answers to!

    In addition, we got to hear some of Robert’s own great music which appeared to be perfectly segued into this in such a natural, easy way.

    Robert masterfully exudes an easy rapport with the artist he is interviewing which makes the entire piece seem to glide like silk. Loved the whole piece and am truly look... more

Q: How do you handle being asked to match a certain sound versus following your own creative direction?
Usually they hire me for a reason based on past work, so there's an expectation of a certain sound, but I try to push beyond it and not repeat myself, blending client needs with my own voice.
Kevin Kiner - Celebrated Multi-Award Winning Movie and TV Composer. Star Wars, CSI: Miami, Narcos, Walker Texas Ranger!
Q: Did you like Spaghetti Westerns when you were young and did something in the studio morph into something else unexpectedly?
Yes, I loved Spaghetti Westerns and Clint Eastwood; in the studio, ideas often morph into something different as I improvise and explore across genres, keeping the process dynamic.
