Dodgers Organist Reveals Secrets of Spontaneous Song Picks

In a recent interview, Dodgers organist Dieter Ruehle discusses his witty and spontaneous approach to selecting songs during the team's games. Ruehle emphasizes the thrill of providing "live accompaniment" to the on-field action, noting that the "game isn't scripted" and his impromptu song choices are part of the excitement.

Meanwhile, acclaimed filmmaker Cameron Crowe reflects on his early journalism career in the 1970s, when he was a leading rock writer for Rolling Stone at just 15 years old. Crowe's new memoir "The Uncool" offers an intimate glimpse into his encounters with legendary musicians like Led Zeppelin, David Bowie, and the Allman Brothers Band. The book also explores Crowe's family life and the profound influence of his oldest sister, who introduced him to the transcendent power of music.

As Crowe prepares for a book tour and a long-planned biopic about his friend Joni Mitchell, he emphasizes the importance of music journalism that captures the passion and wonder of the art form. Crowe's own writing, both in his memoir and his films, has long been celebrated for its ability to transport readers and viewers into the creative process.
