Jaan Uhelszki - Co-Founder, Editorial Director CREEM Magazine
Season 3 · Episode 22
Friday, February 21, 2025 • Duration 01:13:07
THE MIKE GORMLEY SHOW - Featuring Jaan Uhelszkii - Co-Founder, Editorial Director CREEM Magazine
This is truly a special interview. Long-time friends, colleagues, and mutual admirers Mike Gormley and Jaan Uhelszki take you behind the curtain and show you the gritty world of rock and roll, from backstage confessions to Detroit Rock City, as only they can, from a rock writer's perspective.
Jaan Uhelszki was one of the founding editors at Detroit’s legendary CREEM magazine, where she helped pioneer a new form of rock journalism that combined critical analysis with a fan’s love of music.
Since then, her work – characterized by an acutely keen observational eye and an ability to draw out previously unheard confessions -- has appeared in USA Today, Rolling Stone, Spin, Classic Rock, Uncut, and Guitar World.
Currently the editorial director at the relaunched CREEM for the past three years and co-author of the recently released "MC5: A Oral Biography of Rock’s Most Revolutionary Band," she is the only journalist to have ever performed in full makeup with Kiss. Luckily, now she only wears Victoria Beckham eyeliner.
*Jaan Uhelszki curated the Original Music Soundtrack for the interview

Miles Copeland | I.R.S. Records Founder, Sting, The Police, R.E.M., The Go-Go's
Season 8
Saturday, August 17, 2024 • Duration 01:17:11
THE MIKE GORMLEY SHOW - With Jeremiah - Featuring Miles Copeland - Music Manager & Iconic Music Executive, Miles Copeland.
Mike Gormley Interviews...Don't miss these personal stories of how two friends and music business legends made the music we all love.
Miles Copeland's book is TWO STEPS FORWARD, ONE STEP BACK
In it, Miles tells the extraordinary story of a maverick manager, promoter, label owner, and all-around legend of the music industry.
It opens in the Middle East, where Miles grew up with his father, a CIA agent stationed in Syria, Egypt, and Lebanon. It then shifts to London in the late 60s and the beginnings of a career managing bands
—Only for Miles’s life and work to be turned upside down by a disastrous European tour.
From the ashes of near bankruptcy, Miles entered the punk world, sharing a building with Malcolm McLaren and Sniffin’ Glue, before shifting gears again as manager of The Police, featuring his brother Stewart Copeland on drums.
After founding I.R.S. Records, he launched the careers of some of the most potent musical acts of the new wave scene and beyond, from Squeeze and The Go-Go’s to The Bangles and R.E.M.
The story comes full circle as Miles finds himself advising the Pentagon on how to win over hearts and minds in the Middle East and introducing Arabic music to the United States.
"Never let the truth get in the way of a good story," his father would tell him. In the end, though, the truth is what counts—and it’s all his book.
