In this special episode, Sally Stevens and Ron Hicklin give us insight into the creative world of James Horner like very few can. Ron and Sally began working with James in the early 80s as studio vocalists and vocal contractors and their voices can be heard on so many Horner scores like Glory, Apollo 13, Sneakers, Jumanji, Casper, Red Heat, and many more.

The stories my guests tell, paint an intimate picture of what it was like to spend countless hours in the studio with James, his work ethic, his perfectionism and his childlike characteristics.

Ron Hicklin shares how he became a trusted partner and confidant for James and the bond that they shared.

If you are a lover of the works of James Horner, this is a must listen.

One of the greatest gifts of being a podcaster has been getting to know Ron Hicklin and Sally Stevens. I am so grateful for both of them, not only for allowing me to help tell their stories, but for the heart they poured into their work for us, and their friendship. Thank you both.

This episode is dedicated to two wonderful people- Sally Stevens and Ron Hicklin.

To the late James Horner- so many times, as I watch a new movie, I wonder if it would have been you scoring it if you were still with us. Thank you for the gift of so much beautiful and soul-stirring music. You are missed, maestro.
