Podcast #311 – Musician’s Union Lawsuit, UPS Backup, And Studio Guitarist Ira Ingber

My guest today is Ira Ingber, who’s a long time Los Angeles studio musician, composer and producer. Through the years Ira has had multiple major label record deals and toured and recorded with top Southern California singer/songwriters like J.D. Souther, Jennifer Warnes and Bonnie Riatt. Ira was also asked to form a band for Bob Dylan that led him to record two Dylan albums and tour with the legend. He’s also composed and performed on numerous original scores and songs for film, television and commercials. During the interview we spoke about growing up in the heart of the Hollywood music scene, some excellent stories about playing with Bob Dylan, studio guitar rigs through the decades, and much more. On the intro I’ll take a look at what's behind the lawsuit against the Musician’s Union pension fund, and protecting your home studio with a UPS backup.
