Hi, this is Gilbert Gottfried and this is Gilbert Gottfried's amazing colossal podcast with my co-hosts Frank Tanto Padre.

And tonight we are pleased to have two terrific guests, one of them is Roger Cook, who is a musician, singer, producer, former pantomine artist, and one of pop and country music's most prolific and successful songwriters.

Writing a co-writing memorable hit songs including You've Got Your Troubles. Here comes that rainy day feeling, long cool woman in the black dress.

My baby loves loving and the Coca-Cola jingle turned into an international sensation. I'd like to teach the world to sing.

His songs have been covered by the likes of Johnny Cash, Dusty Springfield.

Bing Crosby, Betmidler, Neil Diamond, Petula Clark, The Drifter's Gene Pitney, and his late great friend John Prime.

In the mid 1970s he relocated to Nashville and enjoyed a second career as a writer of country hits including Don Williams, I Believe In You, and Crystal Gales talking in your sleep.

And George Straits one night at a time, among others. He's a member of the National Songwriters Hall of Fame and the country music Hall of Fame and the first Englishman to be inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame.

And our other guest, Henry Gross, is a Jew.

That's all that matters to me. I mean, I guess you wrote us saying whatever. I'm fine, but you're a Jew.

That's right. Does anybody need more coffee?

Henry Gross is a musician, singer, songwriter, record producer, occasional actor, and one of the funniest men in Rock n' Roll, a founding member of the Duwap Group, Shanana.

He played the New York World's Fair and the Catskills, Wild still a teen, and he was also the youngest person to perform at Woodstock.

He's open for acts like Billy Joel, Aerosmith, Fleetwood Mac, The Beach Boys, and collaborated with everyone from Deon to Jim Croci to Chaka Khan and written songs for Judy Collins, Mary Travers, South Side Johnny,

Ronnie Millsap and Cindy Lauper. In 1976, he released a single, Shannon, a song we've discussed on this podcast a number of times,

which quickly went gold in the US and became a worldwide hit, Ruching Number 6 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and number 5 on the Cashbox Top 100.

And in 2006, he toured with a terrific one-man theatrical production entitled One Hit Wanderer, a journey through the highlights and funniest moments of his life in and out of the show business.

The show business.

I don't care. We get the general idea.

We get the idea.

A journey through the highlights and funniest moments of his life in and out of the entertainment business.

Frank and I are excited to welcome to the show The Pride of Bristol and Brooklyn.
