Episode 19: Hanging On The Telephone - Jack Lee/The Nerves
Episode 19
samedi 1 juillet 2023 • Duration 26:19
Earlier this month, it was announced that at the end of last month, another rock and roll legend left us and ascended to the rock and roll heavens. While this legend may fall into the often overlooked category we like to focus so much on here, it doesn’t make him any less of a legend. In fact, I think it makes him even more of a legend because he has that cool air of mystery floating about him. Jack Lee penned many great songs over his musical career, and while not all of them were big commercial successes, his songwriting and music styling have been hugely influential on many who have come after him.

Episode 6: Never To Be Forgotten
Episode 6
lundi 16 mars 2020 • Duration 24:24
Eddie Cochran is our subject today..
Eddie Cochran is a paramount figure of rock and roll...He was basically Chuck Berry and Elvis rolled into one person. He was the original "rocker" .. like mods vs rockers? yeah Eddie was who all those rocker kids aspired to be.. He could sing, he could play guitar, he was good looking. this kid really had it all going on. He was experimental with recording techniques, being one of the first to mess with multi-track recording and overdubbing..He even was one of the first to mix distortion into his sounds.
Legend.

Episode 5
mardi 10 mars 2020 • Duration 16:51
ROCK AND ROLL HISTORY: The notorious and ill-fated Anarchy Tour is our subject today. This tour was planned as the very first "Punk Rock" touring show which featured an all star line up. Sex Pistols, Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers, The Damned, and The Clash. The story gets pretty messy..
How messy??
Filthy and Furiously Messy.
