In this jam-packed episode of "Moods and Modes," Alex remembers the late Vic Juris with special guest Kate Baker, who was Vic’s musical partner and wife. Kate discusses her partnership with Juris and how he approached working with other musicians, and the two discuss the last album she recorded with Juris, Return To Shore. Alex is also joined by Joe Russo’s Almost Dead guitarist Scott Metzger, who shares his experience of being a student of Juris; and, licensed attorney & guitarist Mark Hanna tells Alex about his time spent learning from Vic, and explains how a keyboard solo from a Juris song ended up on a classic hip hop track.
