    Today's topic The Lost Generation. Got to bring back the music. The music of love. A time when music was great with soul and had the sound of smooth harmonies. And I'm thinking of a fabulous group known as the lost generation.

    With their silky vocals and that sweet R&B groove, they brought us tunes that made the world smile. They knew how to stir those emotions sending love notes through the airwaves straight to your heart. It’s time to revive that love music.

    Whether it's their iconic hits or those deep cuts that made you feel like you were floating on a cloud, we owe it to ourselves to bring back the sounds that defined a generation.

    Now let me tell you about the group Lost Generation. The members Lowrell Simon, Fred Simon (brothers),Jesse Dean, Leslie Dean and Larry Brownlee began singing together in 1969. This was after Jesse Dean completed time in the United States Army. Shortly after forming, Lowrell Simon's childhood friend, Gus Redmond (who was by that time promotional head at Brunswick Records), had the group record with producer Carl Davis. The result of these sessions was the single "The Sly, Slick and the Wicked", which became a hit in the US, and whose sales earned Brunswick Records enough profits to buy itself out and dissociate itself from its parent company, Decca Records, that same year. Lowrell Simon was inspired for the song's title by the film title The Good, the Bad and the Ugly.

    The group scored a few further hits, and disbanded in 1974. Members Brownlee and Fred Simon later joining Mystique. Lowrell Simon embarked on a successful career as a songwriter and, in the late 70's, a solo artist. Larry Brownlee died in 1978. Fred Simon currently sings bass vocals with The Chi-Lites. Lowrell Simon died in 2018 of multiple health complications.

    They were a group that had great vocal arrangements. They were like a sweet potion blending powerful leads with silky background harmonies that transported you straight to the heart of the soul experience. The band sound was a perfect marriage of passion and skill.

    So as we reminisce about the year 1969, let's not forget The Lost Generation - the torch barriers of soul music keeping the flame alive in an ever-changing musical landscape. I'm Gail Nobles, and you're listening to the Cat Bear.

    Hello groovy podcast listeners. It's your host Gail Nobles on the Cat Bear. I've got something that got folks scratching their heads - records and podcast. Now let me break it down for you.
    Picture this: You hear the music from your radio. That's the vibe my friends, but here's the kicker - when it comes to podcasts, we’re throwing those vinyl grooves right out the window. Why? Let me tell you.

    Podcasts all about the spoken word. Imagine a conversation between your favorite host, dishing out stories, news, and laughter. They don't need no crackling vinyl or spinning disc. It's all digital now, screamed right into your ears through the magic of the Internet.

    Next up, the flexibility. In the world of podcasts, we're not limited by the length of a record. Who needs to flip it over? A podcast can take you on an adventure, whether it's a quick 15 minute chat or an epic two hour deep dive. No side A or Side B, just straight up freedom.

    And Hey! Let's not forget about production. Those dreamy sounds you hear in my podcast or crafted with care, mixing in music, sound effects, and all sorts of audio wizardry. Records are just grooves and a slab of wax or a multimedia feast for your ears.

    Just look on the bright side. You got a chance to do something new. I wish I could play a few minutes of a 45 record, but I can't. It's against the podcast rules. While we love the sound of vinyl spinning. podcasts are forging their own path through the airwaves, bringing conversations and stories directly to you. You won't hear those records playing in the background of a podcast. It's all about the magic of technology.

    I'm Gail Nobles. Thank you for tuning into the Cat Bear. The podcast sound the podcast way.

    We celebrate the sensational sound of a truly captivating Queen of Urban Pop. The one and only Aaliyah. Princes of R&B with a voice that flows like velvet and moves that could mesmerize the hardest of hearts. That's what her song Death of a Playa is all about. Hmm! Hm! Aaliyah was the epitome of cool that brought that sultry blend of R&B and hip-hop straight to the fourth front of our minds and our stereo speakers.

    Born with a gift and an inimitable style. A unique style and different. Aaliyah burst onto the scene like a shooting star lightning up the charts with timeless classics that make you want to groove and sway. Her smooth hypnotic melodies wrap around you like a warm embrace while her infectious spirit uplifts and inspires turning each performance into a magical experience.

    Whether she was enchanting us with one in One in a Million or showing her powerful side with Try Again Aaliyah had a unique ability to connect with her audience, leaving us all yearning for more of her dazzling presence. Just like right now, we wish to see her again. With her signature look, striking confidence, and undeniable talent she stood out from everyone else. She was a trailblazer for generations to come. We see that every day. We see people inspired by her.

    Aaliyah, a star whose light will shine bright and forever echo in the hearts of music lovers everywhere!

    I’m Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening. You can now turn up The Queen’s music and groove.
