I would like to interview him on my podcast all about educating & preserving 60’s music rock & roll history to younger generations. I would like to speak with him about the Teen Pop sessions he arranged for Steve & Eydie. If someone can put me in touch with him that would be great my email is samltwilli@icloud.com. I’m dying to know the names of session musicians who played on their stuff. That would be great.

Rip spoke about many of Joe’s students, including Joe Soldo, Dave Tofani, Eddie Daniels and others. I thoroughly enjoyed these discussions and learned much about tone production from Rip. Sadly, Rip passed away in spring of 2023 and is sorely missed. Abe most is a new name to me and I appreciate getting to know him through your post.

The great jazz guitarist/studio musician/educator Howard Roberts once told me that he had studied with Hugo Friedhofer. Howard considered this to be one of the most important influences on his development as a jazz musician and he also had a few stories he shared with me about Friedhofer.<br /> Howard also recorded a Friedhofer composition called “An Orchid for Miss Sterling” on one of his mid-fifties LP’s on the Verve label.<br /> I always wondered if this beautiful melody was originally a “stand alone” piece written for the album, or was it part of one of Friedhofer’s film scores and extracted by Roberts to be used on this LP?<br /> If anyone knows, I’d really appreciate any information you could provide -specifically about this piece and its origins!
