The Austin Snyder Experience

Just a little taste of Stanley Clarke as he as played on countless recording and projects over the years. The last LP on this show is SMV - Thunder with Stanley, Marcus Miller and Victor Wooten.

Some of the best music Carlos Santana ever recorded as this LP went #1 in 1999. This is a painting print Austin had hanging in his apartment. He loved the playing styles of Taylor Hawkins.

I have covered Tull from 1974 to 1989 this week. Two of my favorite Tull tunes are The Minstrel In The Gallery and Farm on the Freeway.

Ian Anderson's Jethro Tull band has been in existence since 1967, almost 60 years! Here is the first 5 years of the band's music.

Some of my favorite song to sing like A Matter Of Trust and I Go To Extremes.

Just the way you are was my mother's favorite songs for me to sing. I'm going to cover this week his LP's from 1971 to 1977.

I always enjoyed playing Perer's music for Austin, especially the live video "Growing up". The photo I chose reminded that the spirit of Austin lives through me by a bright and shining star.

I decided to hit he middle years of the band from 1980 to 1986.

This is an original band from Fort Wayne, no longer together but recorded a great disc called Anybody Listening.

The Foo Fighters was one of Austin's favorite bands especially Taylor Hawkins, the long time drummer for the band.

With the band Not My Kids, we enjoyed playing INXS tunes such as What You Need and New Sensation. Back in the day, we played Good Times written by members of INXS and Jimmy Barnes from Australia.

Here is a photo of Austin in the southwest, either Arizona or New Mexico.

Austin and I went to the Clyde Theatre to catch Queensyche approximately 3 1/2 years ago. He really enjoyed the drumming and percussion from Scott Rockenfield on the Empire recordings. They only played a couple of songs from that LP. Enjoy the Ryche!

This is a special show for my good friend Doug Jones, the engineer for WNHE 101.3 FM The Voice Of The East Side ( of New Haven, IN_) All Beatles number one hits, or most of them.

Being a former member of the tribute band, Pink Droyd, Austin came to and helped out many shows we did in Fort Wayne, Anderson, In and Cleveland, Oh. This photo was taken at the Clyde Theater in Fort Wayne at the Queensryche show.

Austin's first concert along with his brother, Jordan was the Ringo Starr All Star show down at Deer Creek/Verizon around the early 1990's. His first experience the the Beatles music.

One song was muted so I hope I fixed this.

Austin and myself played the first track together a number of times. This band had it's popularity in the late 70's and early 80's.

Austin and myself were headed to a Thanksgiving gathering in South Bend years ago and listened to some early Yes off of the Relayer LP. We also attended a show in Noblesville to see the band a number of years ago. He loved it!

Here is my part two of the Kansas material. Great songs plus with the new lead singer, Ronnie Platt.

I playing some of Kansas's songs from their first 6 LP's

We played with Brad Kelsey Band for a couple of years and played some Joe B. along with some John Mayer and B. B. King to name a few.

Well I finally found my first show, thanks DJ. Take a listen to my interview with Arron Steele from Horizon Arcs and After School Special. His new band is called Humans Among Us.

Great times playing these tunes with Austin. We did some "woodshedding" to get all of the songs tight when it was time to rehearse with the full band.

Mix of many tunes we played together. Songs like situation by Jeff Beck, Led Zeppelin, The Cars, INXS and many others.
