Hiya! My name's Terry J. Aman and in this, my 12th episode of VideoFuzzy the Soundtrack titled "Hiding Behind the Moon," I focus on artists in my music collection whose names begin with the letter J.

My title track takes me in a different direction for this set. Straight out the gate, I highlight the late Jeff Hanson's "Hiding Behind the Moon" is only in my collection in the first place because I heard it in a first season episode of "Nip/Tuck."

And so many songs by J-named artists trace their pathway into my collection by way of soundtracks and other media engagement I decided to lead with my Sparks entries, because with a few exceptions, most of them are by artists with one song in my collection. Apart from Jeff Hanson, this list includes Jace Everett, Jack White and Alicia Keys, Janet Seidel, Jem, Joshua Henry, John C. Reilly, Joe Purdy, Joyce Kennedy, Julia Migenes, Jan August, Jack Johnson and Jared Halley.

In Influences, artists with full LPs in my collection, I talk about Jefferson Airplane's "Surrealistic Pillow," Joss Stone's "The Soul Sessions," Jewel's "Pieces of You" and "Spirit" and Joan Osborne's "Relish."

In Breakouts, artists with multiple songs in my collection, I talk about finding a couple Journey tracks in my collection I know were taped off the radio back in the 1980s, some of the most Gen X music I own. Also, more from Joshua Henry and Jared Halley and songs by Jason Mraz.

And in a second pass at Sparks, other artists with one song in my collection, I Have Jay-Z's collaboration with Linkin Park, Jethro Tull, Jesus Jones, Johnny Cash, John Lennon and John Denver, Janis Ian, Johnny Rivers and Joss Whedon.

Hiya! My name's Terry J. Aman and in this, my 11th episode of VideoFuzzy the Soundtrack titled "Relics of Things Past," it's my second installment of artists in my music collection whose names begin with the letter I.

Yup, "Ep. 10: Caramia" focused on the 80+ songs in my collection by The Indigo Girls. Part 2 of the I's starts out with an interview with a college friend of mine, Mark Leonard Mason, and he talked to me about a band he was in at the time called Ice Nine. Since conducting and editing that interview, I received the tragic news that Mark lost his life in a car accident. I added some words ahead of the interview and beyond it to reflect our loss.

Under Influences [full LPs] I talk about Inspiral Carpets, Incubus and Ibeyi. Under Breakouts [multiple tracks] I talk about Iggy Pop and INXS. And under Sparks [single tracks] I talk about Ice Cube, Inara George and Information Society.

Pics in VideoFuzzy's Instagram of Ice Nine cassette and CD artwork, Mark Leonard Mason from the '90s, and screencaps from Ibeyi's performance of "Deathless" from their 2017 release "Ash" on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert in March of 2018.

Hiya! I'm Terry J. Aman, host of VideoFuzzy the Soundtrack, and in "Ep. 11: Relics of Things Past," I share my interview with Mark Leonard Mason of the Grand Forks, North Dakota, band Ice Nine who tragically we learned lost his life shortly after I spoke with him. The interview reflected his humor and passion and I have included as much of it as I could. His friend and former bandmate Eric Fundingsland shared a link to Ice Nine's final concert on bandcamp, and that link is in my show notes along with his other projects and web presence. Plus comments on Inspiral Carpets, Incubus, Ibeyi, Ice Cube, INXS, Iggy Pop and Information Society.
