On this week’s episode we are joined by Joe Esposito. Joe Esposito, also known by his nickname "Bean," is an American singer, songwriter, and musician. He formed the vocal group Brooklyn Dreams in the 1970s, alongside Eddie Hokenson and Bruce Sudano. The trio quickly gained recognition for their harmonious sound and songwriting abilities with their big break coming when they collaborated with disco queen Donna Summer. While Esposito found success with Brooklyn Dreams, his solo career also flourished. He became well-known for his powerful and emotive voice, which led to numerous opportunities in both the recording studio and the realm of film music. One of his most famous solo tracks is "You're the Best," featured in the 1984 film "The Karate Kid." This song, known for its motivational lyrics and catchy melody, has become an enduring anthem of triumph and perseverance. Joe has worked with a variety of renowned artists. Notably, he co-wrote the hit "Lady, Lady, Lady," which was performed by Giorgio Moroder and featured in the film "Flashdance." His ability to craft memorable melodies and poignant lyrics has made him a sought-after collaborator in the music industry.
