Bill chatrs with Mort Garson who was one of the most unique and outright bizarre resumés in popular music, spanning from easy listening to occult-influenced space-age electronic pop. Born July 20, 1924, in the Canadian city of St. John, New Brunswick, Garson attended the Juilliard School of Music, briefly graduating to the ranks of professional pianist and arranger before he was drafted to serve in World War II. Upon returning from duty, Garson cemented a reputation as a top session hand, tackling arranging, conducting and composing.
