He played a couple of songs in the midst of several guerrilla showcases during a very fun (and late) Saturday evening at the conference.<\/p>\n<p>This time, he gets the whole hour. We&#8217;ll learn how his father taught him that music was &#8220;something you sat and listened to&#8221; &#8211; it wasn&#8217;t background music for something else. His dad loved the classics. His mom taught him about pop music. James emerged under the influence of both, and as a result has been playing the traveling troubadour most of his adult life.<\/p>\n<p>In episode #87, James talks about his musical upbringing, his vagabond roots (his dad was in the army), and how fate simply insisted that he make his latest record, &#8220;Tempest in a Teacup&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Click to hear <a href=\"http:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/podcasts\/songs_and_stories88.mp3\">Episode #87<\/a> (time = 44:05, size = 40.5 mb).<\/p>\n<p>Episode #88 includes live performances of &#8220;Mountains&#8221; and &#8220;Mushroom&#8221; off the new CD, as well as &#8220;When I&#8217;m with You&#8221;, an unreleased track.<\/p>\n<p>Click to hear <a href=\"http:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/podcasts\/songs_and_stories88.mp3\">episode #88<\/a> (time = 24:04, size = 22.1 mb).<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/ax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net\/WebObjects\/MZStore.woa\/wa\/browserRedirect?url=itms%253A%252F%252Fax.phobos.apple.com.edgesuite.net%252FWebObjects%252FMZStore.woa%252Fwa%252FviewPodcast%253Fid%253D216646993\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.michaelgaither.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/subscribe-with-itunes.jpg\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<iframe src=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/like.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.michaelgaither.com%2Fhome%2Fsongs-and-stories-87-and-88-james-hurley-under-the-influences-pop-and-classical-that-is%2F&amp;layout=standard&amp;&amp;width=800&amp;action=like&amp;colorscheme=light\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowTransparency=\"true\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:800px;height:30px;margin-top:5px;\"><\/iframe>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Another two-parter, and another couple of episodes filed under &#8220;cool folk you meet along the way&#8221;.
