THE WRECKING CREW - Tommy Tedesco - Carol Kane - Hal Blaine - Glen Campbell - Ep. 11213 juin 202601:24:34

KEN COOKE (all the way from Australia!)  joins Rob on the podcast today to talk about the great WRECKING CREW

The Wrecking Crew was a group of session musicians who performed on some of the biggest music hits in America .. mainly in the 1960s and 1970s.

In 2008 a great documentary came out revealing members of the wrecking crew and their contributions to music

Rob and Ken go through some of the members and tell you what songs they were on along with the history of the wrecking crew into the 70s and how things all of a sudden changed for session musicians.  Also some of the bands and artists who used the Wrecking Crew on many of their songs.

We find out how they got their name and which member absolutely hates that name (a person Ken and Rob has slight run in with)

Rob and Ken also go over the documentary and what it covers and some of the bonus material that is on the 2-disc DVD edition.

Prominent members that are covered on this podcast are: CAROL KANE (only female member of the Wrecking Crew), EARL PALMER, GLEN CAMPBELL, HAL BLAINE (who was on over 140 top 40 hits)  and ... TOMMY TEDESCO!  

Ken actually owns one of tommy's instruments (that was used in some of the music for an Indiana Jones movie).

If you go on youtube you can see the video from the podcast of Ken showing Tommy's "Laud". **** KNOW GOOD MUSIC can be found on Podbean (host site), Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Iheart Radio, Pandora, YouTube  and almost anywhere you listen to podcasts.

THE LAST WALTZ Movie Review - From the Archives - originally aired April 10, 202123 mai 202600:37:01

FROM THE ARCHIVES - Original Airdate of 4.10.2021

New intro by Rob

Today Jim (rob) and Mike (matt) talk about the 1976 film THE LAST WALTZ

ABOUT THE LAST WALTZ The Last Waltz was a concert by the Canadian-American rock group The Band, held on American Thanksgiving Day, November 25, 1976, at Winterland Ballroom in San Francisco. The Last Waltz was advertised as The Band's "farewell concert appearance", and the concert saw The Band joined by more than a dozen special guests, including their previous employers Ronnie Hawkins and Bob Dylan as well as Paul Butterfield, Bobby Charles, Eric Clapton, Neil Diamond, Dr. John, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, Ringo Starr, Muddy Waters, Ronnie Wood, and Neil Young. The musical director for the concert was The Band's original record producer, John Simon.

The event was filmed by director Martin Scorsese and made into a documentary of the same title, released in 1978. Jonathan Taplin, who was The Band's tour manager from 1969 to 1972 and later produced Scorsese's film Mean Streets, suggested that Scorsese would be the ideal director for the project and introduced Robbie Robertson and Scorsese. Taplin served as executive producer. The film features concert performances, intermittent song renditions shot on a studio soundstage, and interviews by Scorsese with members of The Band. A triple-LP soundtrack recording, produced by Simon and Rob Fraboni, was issued in 1978. The film was released on DVD in 2002 as was a four-CD box set of the concert and related studio recordings.

The Last Waltz is hailed as one of the greatest documentary concert films ever made,[3] although it has been criticized for its focus on Robertson.  In 2019, the film was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the National Film Registry for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant".

******

Rob (and co-hosts) will be back in June 2026 with some brand-new podcasts and interviews!  Stay Tuned

THOM LAFOND (Banshee Tree) Interview / Colorado Folk Rock Band18 avr. 202600:59:35

Rob interviews guitarist/vocalist Thom LaFond from the Colorado based band BANSHEE TREE!

***

BIO:

BANSHEE TREE is an indie psychedelic pop/rock band with sharply-written songs, jazz-inspired guitar solos, saxophone textures, and grooves that nod to the dance floor, they've spent nearly a decade evolving their sound. That fusion reaches a new peak with Bad Luck, a restless and unapologetically diverse album that captures a celebrated band chasing down new horizons.

For years, Banshee Tree's evolution took place not in the recording studio, but onstage. A weekly residency at a speakeasy in Boulder, Colorado, gave the musicians an opportunity to reach beyond their origins as a swing band, while the addition of new members — including veterans of Denver's funk and punk-rock scenes — helped broaden the group's influences. Banshee Tree began gigging in other cities, too, busking with street performers in New Orleans and sharing late-night jam sessions with bands in the Pacific Northwest. Before long, their fusion of acoustic and electric styles had grown so wide that Banshee Tree could play virtually anywhere: dubstep festivals in California, EDM bills in Colorado, and bluegrass shows with genre-benders like Leftover Salmon and The Infamous Stringdusters.

***

APRIL 17th saw the release of their second studio album BAD LUCK - be sure to check it out.  You can hear some of the new music within this podcast.

Rob and Thom talk about the history of the band, songwriting at the Home Depot, AI and how it is effecting the music industry, Marc Ribot, Gloria Gaynor, GONG, Stellar Jay,  the fundraiser for a van and a possible name for the new van... and alot more!

Thom picks his mystery question and it's a good one! ********** Check out Banshee Tree at their website : banshee-tree.com

There you can find video of their live performances, their bio and you can donate so they can get a new touring van... have your name written somewhere in the van!

You can also find the band on Facebook and Instagram

ELVIS PRESLEY Movie Review KISSIN COUSINS ep. 10408 janv. 202601:09:09

ELVIS Movie & Soundtrack Review for KISSIN COUSINS

Paul and Rob talk about the 1964 Elvis movie KISSIN COUSINS.

They go thru most of the songs from the movie in order as they appear in the movie and we talk about the plot of the movie (there is a sort of a plot).

They also play audio from a SKIP E LOWE interview with the director / writer GENE NELSON that is from 1990 (with permission)

This was such a fun movie for us to watch and review.

'Paul not only was on the podcast last year talking Horror Films (Paul is a writer/director of independent horror films like HUNT CHASE KILL and the LEGEND OF THE BUSHKILL WITCH) but... he's a huge Elvis fan just like Rob is ... so it was only fitting that Paul would agree to come to the studio and record this podcast.  

We are releasing this podcast on what would of been Elvis' 91st birthday (January 8, 2026)

**** SUBJECTS COVERED (or uncovered): MOONSHINE BIKINIS KITTYHAWKS WRASSLING  And of course the Movie itself, The Soundtrack, Fun Facts and The Critics ... oh... the critics..

***

FIND OUT: What cast member acted with her son in the movie? Was Elvis' wearing a wig? Who did Elvis' get in a fight with? What cast member was not really singing? Does Elvis get the girl (or girls?) What did Yvonne Craig have to say about Elvis? (Paul tells us from a first hand conversation he had with Yvonne) and more! ***** KNOW GOOD MUSIC can be found on Podbean (host site), Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Iheart Radio, Pandora, YouTube  and almost anywhere you listen to podcasts.

Ms Fab will bring a fun and exciting flavor to the podcast and we'll be talking more about 70s, 80s music than anything.  Maybe 60s and 50s.. I see an Elvis movie review in the future.

KISS ALIVE - Album Anniversary Edition - 50th Anniversary - ep.9410 sept. 202500:29:57

KISS ALIVE - 50th ANNIVERSARY Special Podcast with Sam and Rob

September 10, 1975 KISS ALIVE!  Was unleashed to the public.

Since then it's proven the test of time as far as LIVE albums go.

Oh, but wait... it wasn't entirely recorded live ... there were studio tricks ?

The album that almost wasn't saved Casablanca Records from bankruptcy and propelled KISS into greater music territory.  It would be only a year later when they put out their ground-breaking earth shaking album DESTROYER.. and the rest is kisstory!

Find out who they borrowed a guitar from when recording the over-dubs for KISS Alive. Who ended up funding Kiss' dressed to kill tour (which lead to kiss alive) What made Neil Bogart (owner of Casablanca) suddenly want to give the band 2 million dollars? What words of wisdom will we hear from Gene Simmons in this podcast? Who made Rob want to learn how to play guitar? What was the inspiration behind the name KISS ALIVE? We cover all this in less than 30 minutes AND MORE! ********* KNOW GOOD MUSIC can be found on Podbean (host site), Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Iheart Radio, Pandora, YouTube  and almost anywhere you listen to podcasts.

LIBERTY DEVITTO Interview - Billy Joel / Paul McCartney / The Lords of 52nd Street / The Slim Kings02 août 202501:03:27

Matt and Rob Interview legendary drummer Liberty DeVitto

We talk about his 2020 book "Liberty, Life, Billy & the Pursuit of Happiness"

Liberty helped sell over 150 million albums with a band that Phil Rubin named "the Lords of 52nd Street" with Billy Joel at the lead.

**** We talk about: THE FIRST TIME LIBERTY MET BILLY JOEL WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO MEET PAUL MCCARTNEY AND RECORD WITH HIM THE SONGS "SCENES FROM AN ITALIAN RESTAURANT" AND "ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG" THE SONG LIBERTY DIDN'T LIKE TO PLAY THE UNIQUE SOUNDS USED FOR "PRELUDE / ANGRY YOUNG MAN" AND "STILETTO" THE 911 BENEFIT, VISITING GROUND ZERO THE RECOVERY SQUAD (Liberty has been sober for over 20 years!) THE SLIM KINGS (LIBERTY'S CURRENT BAND) AND MORE! (AND THINGS THAT ARE NOT IN LIBERTY'S BOOK) **** Matt and Rob grew up listening to Billy Joel so it was a great honor for us to talk to someone who was in the middle of it all back in the 70s/80s.  The good, the bad and the ugly of it all. We tried to keep it positive. Liberty is such a humble, funny and sweet person it was a great time for us all. **** Liberatori "Liberty" DeVitto is an American rock drummer. He is best known for his work as a drummer for singer-songwriter Billy Joel's recording and touring band. He has also been a session drummer on recordings for other artists, including Paul McCartney, Carly Simon, Phoebe Snow, Karen Carpenter, Stevie Nicks, Rick Wakeman, Bob James, Meat Loaf, and more. He is credited as a drummer on records that have sold a combined total of 150 million units worldwide.

In 2020, Liberty released his first book, an autobiography, Liberty—Life, Billy, and the Pursuit of Happiness (pictured below). He then began exploring other literary journeys and released his first children's storybook, Love, Santa Clause—A humble-hearted Christmas story.

CHRIS SLADE Interview - AC/DC - THE FIRM - TOM JONES - MANFRED MANN'S EARTHBAND13 juil. 202500:40:12

ROB & JEREMY interview CHRIS SLADE

Chris Slade had an incredible career in music spanning 6 decades!

Chris is from Wales and grew up 6 miles from where Tom Jones grew up.  So it only was right that Chris became Tom Jones drummer (Chris was on Tom's first 6 albums including LIve in Vegas)

Chris went on to form Manfred Mann's Earth Band (Blinded by the Light) ... was asked to join a new supergroup THE FIRM (in the 80s with Jimmy Page & Paul Rodgers), was in ASIA, URIAH HEEP... 

... and one of the greatest bands of all time ... AC/DC.  Chris was on their RAZOR'S EDGE album which he played drums on the legendary song Thunderstruck!  He also recorded "big gun" for the Swartzenegger movie "Last Action Hero".  He joined AC/DC on their ROCK or BUST world tour in 2015.

He was in AC/DC up until 2020 when Phil Rudd rejoined.

We only had about 35 minutes to talk to Chris so we couldn't cover his whole career (who could) but we got to talk drum technique, auditioning for AC/DC, being asked to join The Firm and other stuff including who makes the best tea and if Chris could go back in time where would it be and when?

Also hear Chris' response when Jimmy Page told him (while recording with Tom Jones) what he was going to call his next band ... you may have heard of them?

A good fun interview!

SOPHIE CORAN Interview - Philadelphia Singer Songwriter17 mai 202500:48:27

Rob and Matt had the pleasure of talking to Singer/Songwriter Sophie Coran a week or so ago.

Sophie's new album "I don't go to New York anymore" was just released.

The album is a beautiful indie pop album that doesn't disappoint.  Very dreamy, 14 beautifully constructed songs.  A couple of the songs are experimental.. the album is a wonderful journey into the indie pop realm.. We just love this album!

We talk to Sophie about her new apartment, her cats, toy pianos, why she doesn't go to New York anymore, Jeffrey Campbell Boots, her 7 visualizer videos, teaching piano and we find out a couple non-music things about Sophie... what is her favorite Philly food and the last movie she saw in the theater... 

**** A LITTLE ABOUT SOPHIE Sophie is a singer/songwriter based in Philadelphia.   When she was two years old, she asked her mom for a “pi-na-no.” Music has always been a huge part of her life, in fact, she's not sure there’s ever been a period of time where music wasn’t a defining factor in her decisions.  From piano lessons, to learning to write down the songs she heard in her head, to studying classical composition in college, she knew music would always be present in one way or another. After graduating from MSM, she spent some time abroad, landing in London, and then back to Philly, where she is currently based. ****
