Episode 59: Ian "The Cheeto Flow" Hallowell

Ian "The Cheeto Flow" Hallowell is more things than I could possibly list here in one of these bio-type thingys, but I can for sure say that he is a saxophonist, a son, a brother, a nephew, and one heckuva badass dude.

I mean...wow.

Amazing hang.

Glad we got to chat about a few of his favorite records, which are these:

• Blacknuss (1971), Rahsaan Roland Kirk

• Rodrigo y Gabriela & C.U.B.A.'s Area 52 (2012)

• Harmony of Difference (2017), Kamasi Washington

• Prodigy Productions's Prodigy (2021)

• Dirty Horse (2022), Martin

And what a ride they were.

It's the Badass Records Podcast, where hopefully you have the opportunity to appreciate some music and a little bit of conversation. Appreciate you stopping by.

copyright disclaimer: I do not own the rights to the intro/outro audio. They are samples from a tune called, "The Squirming Coil," which was the leadoff cut to Phish's sophomore effort, Lawn Boy (1990). It (c/o Elektra Records, Marketed by Rhino Entertainment Company, a Warner Music Group Company) remains one of the best first tracks to one of the best albums in rock history. Or whatever history. Jam-band. I dunno. How 'bout that record-label mouthful, though? Haven't typed one quite that long prior. Anyway...point is you should listen to Lawn Boy. Several times. It's in the Mount Rushmore talks of badass records. Promise.
