Fred Neil: Other Side Of This Life Part I

Monday Mayhem 18 7pm to 11pm
Hosted by Pete Dixon & Joe Schlabotnik

Pete Dixon and Joe Shlabotnik examine the life and music of Fred Neil who is best known for penning the hit theme song to the movie Midnight Cowboy called Everybody's Talkin'. He helped many of the musicians in Greenwich Village get their start. He had a rich baritone voice and a unique rhythmic style of playing the 12 string guitar. The special will include much of Fred's music and interviews with John Sebastian, Vince Martin, Pete Childs, Ric O'Barry and Bob Ingram as they give us insight into Fred's complicated nature and try to reason why he turned his back on music while still in his prime.
