Summary

Jack Johnson joins Track Star* today to listen to a few songs and chat about the impact they had on his life, personally and professionally, and how those songs and artists continue to inform the work he does today. In this episode, Jack Johnson gets into the role music played in his childhood, his falling in love, and his life as a surfer, a filmmaker, and finally a musician. Exploring the power of music to make us laugh and cry, and to transport us to different times and places, Johnson emphasizes, above all else, the importance of love and hope in his music and in his life. Jack teaches us, ultimately, that music exists so that we might meet each other, share experiences, and learn to understand and love each other in new ways.  This Episode's Track List:  If 6 Was 9 - Jimi Hendrix Steal My Kisses - Ben Harper These Arms of Mine - Otis Redding Bad Mouth - Fugazi Box Full of Letters - Wilco All The Time - Bahamas Night Nurse - Gregory Isaacs Driftless - Greg Brown
