As is sometimes the case, part 2 is even bigger and better than part 1... more Key Changes, and this playlist that we asssemble for you is quite honestly, epic.
This week's episode includes some all out diamonds in the rough, and some lumps of coal. "Not My Day Job" features our curation of a bunch of songs from people who are famous for something OTHER than singing. You'll recognize some and we'll reveal some other new mysteries. These are famous actors, comedians, athletes, etc., who just happened to get the itch, thought they could sing, and used their stardom to record a song or two. And a few of them actually got a decent amount of airplay! We'll give them all some time on the podwaves tonight...

Author Chris Sutton returns to the podcast. He's here to talk about his latest book Sparks 1969 to 1979: Every Album, Every Song. It's part of Sonicbond's On Track series. Beginning as a five-man band, the duo of Ron and Russell Mael retained the name and spent much of the seventies working with a succession of sidemen and collaborators. They ended the seventies on a high note with the collaboration with Italian composer and producer Giorgio Moroder for top 20 UK hit “No. 1 In Heaven”. Many who worked on Sparks records have shared their thoughts in the book. The popularity of Sparks has grown over the decades. In 2023 they sold out two nights at the Royal Albert Hall!Purchase a copy of Sparks 1969 to 1979: Every Album, Every Song in the USPurchase a copy of Sparks 1969 to 1979: Every Album, Every Song in the UK Episode Playlist ---------- BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock YouTube Channel Follow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:FACEBOOKINSTAGRAMTIKTOKX Find Your Nearest Independent Bookstore Contact The Booked On Rock Podcast: thebookedonrockpodcast@gmail.com The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

Back in June, I had author David Cain on to tell us about his book Infinite Dead: A Daily Guide to Grateful Dead Concert Performances Volume 2: July. I wanted to have him back on to talk about the first volume, which covers all the Dead shows during October. David made some time to come back on and I'm so glad he did. Very few bands deserve an in-depth look at a band's live show, the Grateful Dead is at the top of that list. Infinite Dead is a new, groundbreaking guide to Grateful Dead concerts. Authoritative and entertaining, Volume 1 features detailed reviews of every Grateful Dead concert performed in the month of October—over 200 shows, including: The three-set, acoustic-electric performances at The Warfield in San Francisco and Radio City Music Hall in New York City;Their five-night “final” stand at the Winterland Ballroom in 1974; andThirteen Halloween performances, from their first in 1966 to their last in 1991.Also included in this volume is the band's revival of “Dark Star” (10/9/89 Hampton Coliseum), “St. Stephen” (10/11/83 Madison Square Garden), and “Turn On Your Love Light” (10/16/81 Melkweg). What better month to talk about The Dead than the month of October!David Cain has been listening to the music of the Grateful Dead for over forty years, including seeing live performances of the band in twenty-five cities in thirteen states during the course of three decades. David's writing on music, sports, and other subjects has appeared in publications ranging from Addicted To Noise to USA Today's Baseball Weekly. David lives in the San Francisco Bay Area.Purchase a copy of Infinite Dead: A Daily Guide to Grateful Dead Concert Performances Volume 1: OctoberVisit the Infinite Dead website Episode Playlist ---------- BookedOnRock.com The Booked On Rock YouTube Channel Follow The Booked On Rock with Eric Senich:FACEBOOKINSTAGRAMTIKTOKX Find Your Nearest Independent Bookstore Contact The Booked On Rock Podcast: thebookedonrockpodcast@gmail.com The Booked On Rock Music: “Whoosh” by Crowander / “Last Train North” & “No Mercy” by TrackTribe

Once again, recorded live and in-person in my front room, this episode sees Jake, Phil and I come up with mixtape playlists for our favourite 1970s songs, in the style of a fantasy draft.
When Will Butler left his band Arcade Fire, he didn't know what would happen next. With a Grammy on his shelf and an Oscar nomination for his musical score on Spike Jonze's “Her,” it seemed like he could do anything — why not Broadway? Now, he's written and composed the music for “Stereophonic,” a new play that was recently nominated for a record-breaking 13 Tony Awards. Set in the 1970s, it follows a fictional rock band on the cusp of superstardom as they struggle through recording their new album. Will talks to Tom about which moments from the play felt like he was dipping into his own past, how a band's relationships influence their art, and why it was good he didn't know anything about ‘70s rock music.
Matt tackles the Brian May classic "Now I'm Here" off of the Queen "Sheer Heart Attack" Album. We talk about delays, dungeons, peaches, classic tracks, deaky magic ...and much more.
