Author: Steve Madaio, Jimi (Fitz) Fitzgerald and Tad Sisler

Prolific trumpeter Steve Madaio had a profound influence on popular music. From his early days, performing with the Butterfield Blues Band on-stage at Woodstock, to decades of recording and touring with Stevie Wonder, The Rolling Stones, John Lennon and virtually hundreds of other multiple-platinum artists, Steve's signature trumpet sound and iconic arrangements left an indelible mark on music as we know it today. His autobiography penned with Tad Sisler entitled "Reflections in the Key of Life" begins in the drug-fueled counterculture of the 1960's, chronicling his incredible journey through legendary tours and recording sessions with the best of the best. it is an intimate portrait from the inside packed with great moments and valuable life lessons.Steve Madaio was called the "Forrest Gump" of his time, always happening to be at the apex of the music business, right in the heart of the action throughout his fifty-year career. This podcast series was conceived and created by Steve Madaio, Tad Sisler and legendary broadcaster Jimi (Fitz) Fitzgerald, to give life to the book and audiobook and to reveal even more fantastic stories. Only 5 episodes into the podcast, Steve suddenly died of a heart attack. Through their grief, Fitz and Tad decided to go ahead and release the podcasts in a series, and to complete the series with interviews and stories from many of the legends and friends Steve recorded and performed with, through the years. As Fitz says, "With so many credits to his career, the question isn't about who Steve worked with, it's about who DIDN'T he work with!" This is an amazing journey through an extraordinary life that will captivate you and leave you wanting more.
