Bootlegging whiskey, acid tests, grass, and songs about murder. The origins of the Grateful Dead are fascinating and not what most people think. Born out of the tradition of “old, weird America”; bluegrass, jug band music and deadly folk tales, the Grateful Dead, as young adults, were into some strange stuff and we are all better for it. The band would go on to create their very own “new, weird America” due in part to the cultural impact they would have over their near 40-year career. But their connection to the traditional music that spawned them was due in large part to their harmonica player, singer, and keyboardist, Ron “Pigpen” McKernan, who lived “the life” so authentically that he died at the age of just 27. This is the Grateful Dead origin story and the Ballad of Pigpen. To view the full list of contributors, see the show notes at www.disgracelandpod.com.

We are doubling up on the remastered episodes this month and continuing with the Prohibition Era, this time covering Bill McCoy. Bill was a successful rum runner by sea, creating what was called rum row where hundreds of boats would sit outside U.S. jurisdiction and sell the illegal booze. His stuff was so good that it was referred to as the "Real McCoy" amongst his loyal costumers.

GREAT VIDEO VERSION: https://bit.ly/42hIZb9 Often called, “the greatest American novel” today - why is this book such a scandal? Read on and then watch/listen! Though an initial publishing failure, the book that many of us (Boomers, X-ers, Millennials) were forced to read in high school English class, is having a great centennial birthday. Currently, the new Broadway/London musical adaption is the hottest ticket in theater. Additionally, the movie starring Leonardo DiCaprio made almost $ ½ billion dollars. It also continues to sell over 500,000+ print copies per year, despite being one century old - making it one of the most successful books in all history (excluding the “Holy Bible”). The author, F. Scott Fitzgerald, was the highest paid and best reviewed writer in U.S, history, when “Gatsby” was first published in 1925 – and he was only 31. BUT, this book turned out to be a great disappointment in sales upon its initial release and helped lead to the author's very early death. What went wrong? During WW2 – years after the author's death - it experienced a great resurgence in popularity and has, today, become a multi-billion-dollar franchise with multiple movies, TV adaptions, and theater. But it's author died tragically at only 44 and in poverty, with all his books out of print. My co-host and I - with the help of literary expert, Dylan Cuellar - attempt to unravel one of the most tragic mysteries in U.S. publishing history.

Originally released April 11, 2022. Bootlegging was an inevitable result of 1920s Prohibition in the U.S. And when the government tried to solve the problem, they ended up with a solution that killed at least 10,000 Americans through poisoned, denatured industrial ethyl-alcohol. In this episode, we tell the story and then talk with Comedian Leslie Battle!

On this week's remastered episode, we head back to the Prohibition Era! We kick things off with one of the first well known bootleggers after the Volstead Act was passed, George Remus. Through his profession as a pharmacist, he would get legal booze, have it hijacked by his men, and then sell it on the illegal market for millions. It all went downhill after he got busted and sent to prison where his then wife stole all his money and that's where the story gets even more crazy!

Interview by Kris PetersAustralian music icon Diesel kick-started his Bootleg Melancholy Album Tour in December with explosive shows in Avoca Beach and Kiama, where fans got to experience the special musical language he has developed with his band of stalwarts, Richie Vez on bass and Lee Moloney on drums. Presented by New World Artists, Diesel, alongside Vez and Moloney, will resume the Bootleg Melancholy Album Tour this March in Warragul, followed by Melbourne, Launceston, Hobart, Perth, Batemans Bay, Newcastle, Sydney, Wyong, Adelaide with proceedings drawing to a close on Saturday, May 3 in Elizabeth.The two set performance showcases Diesel's impressive career spanning over three decades, with boundless energy and vitality infused into every song, old and new, the audience will be treated to an unforgettable experience shared with music lovers nationwide. “With so much material to draw from, I'm excited to blend new songs with classics,” Diesel shares. “We make quite a bit of sound for a three-piece, and each show will reflect that energy!” Fans can expect a dynamic set list featuring perennial favourites like Tip Of My Tongue, Soul Revival, All Come Together, Man Alive, Never Miss Your Water and Cry In Shame, alongside “new family member” tracks from Bootleg Melancholy.Diesel is also excited to announce an exclusive guitar giveaway with long-standing partner, Fender. Every ticket purchased for the 2025 Bootleg Melancholy Album Tour —including those who have already purchased tickets—will automatically go into the draw to WIN a signed Squire Sonic Stratocaster Electric Guitar, there's one guitar to be won at every show. At the conclusion of the tour, Diesel will personally draw a major prize winner, who will receive a one-on-one Zoom guitar lesson with the Australian legend—a truly unique and exciting opportunity for fans and aspiring musicians alike.One of Australia's greatest success stories, Diesel, has spent three decades weaving his one-of-a-kind musical magic into his rock and blues-fuelled sounds, both as part of the band Johnny Diesel & The Injectors and, more recently, as a solo artist. With multiple #1 ARIA charting albums under his belt, six ARIA award wins and millions of streams alongside a legion of fans, Diesel's creative skillset also expands beyond his own projects, with the talented artist also renowned for his work as a producer and multi-instrumentalist.HEAVY caught up with Diesel on the eve of the first show to find out more. Given the amount of touring Diesel has done throughout his career, we ask if he still gets the same enjoyment out of life on the road."There are some things that I've become more aware of that I don't like," he measured "The good thing about that is you become more aware. You can let it bother you or become more aware of it and… accept, maybe, or take steps to try and avoid. That's the good thing about experience, I suppose. When you first start you just go 'why does that happen?' or 'what do you mean?' Now, I wouldn't say that there's very few variables or surprising things. I think the most challenging thing (laughs)… let's get down to the basics. Watching the carousel go around and your gear doesn't come out. That's always a good start to the day (laughs). Which has happened. Then you think, okay, call this person. Call that person. Call music stores. You start begging and borrowing and then you have to calculate it's gonna come on that flight, but will it make it to the gig in time for the crew? This is all things that have happened, and the crowd, they're not to know. it's not their problem. That's always the biggest challenges. You always allow enough time, of course, but then it becomes like a sliding scale. How much time can you allow because you've got commitments before that and it's also the massive expense of going the day before and things like that. So you've got everyone on hold and you have accommodation and cars for an extra day. These are all big factors for a touring party."In the full interview, Diesel discusses the Bootleg Melancholy Album Tour in more detail, what to expect, the performance time over two sets, balancing each setlist, the other members of his touring band, how to win a signed Squire Sonic Stratocaster Electric Guitar at each show, future music and more including a few music and life lessons learnt along the way.Tickets and more information www.diesel.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

Al Capone wasn't just a gangster—he was a mastermind who built an empire on bootlegging, bribery, and bloodshed. But no event cemented his reputation like the Saint Valentine's Day Massacre. On February 14, 1929, seven of Bugs Moran's men were lined up in a Chicago garage and executed in a hail of seventy bullets. The massacre shocked the nation, turning Capone into Public Enemy #1 and igniting a federal crackdown that would eventually bring him down. Who really ordered the hit? Was it Capone, corrupt cops, or an inside job? Theories have swirled for nearly a century, and the truth remains one of America's coldest cases. Join me as I unravel the rise and fall of Al Capone in this deep dive into one of the most infamous mob hits of all time. #AlCapone, #ValentinesDayMassacre, #TrueCrime, #OrganizedCrime, #MafiaHistory, #BugsMoran, #EliotNess, #CrimeHistory, #MobBoss, #ProhibitionEra, #ChicagoCrime, #PublicEnemyNumberOne, #SaintValentinesDayMassacre, #CaponeLegacy, #GangsterWars, #MobViolence, #TrueCrimeStory, #CrimeDocumentary, #MafiaTales, #TrueCrimeAddict, #UnsolvedMysteries, #HistoryChannel, #LaurenceFishburne, #CrimeInvestigation, #Bootlegging, #Mobsters, #CrimeLords, #HistoryLover, #GangsterLife, #TrueCrimeCommunity, #HistorysGreatestMysteries=======================================History's Greatest Mysteries: Al Capone https://play.history.com/shows/historys-greatest-mysteries/season-6/episode-3Order a copy of Deceived or She Knew No Fear and get the book signed for free! https://www.ProfilingEvil.comDONATE to Profiling Evil: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=T54JX76RZ455SSUPPORT our Podcasts: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1213394/support

Send us a Text Message.In this interview with author Maggie Shipstead, we discuss her best-selling novel Great Circle.

She flies as a bootlegger transporting liquor, the flies as a bush pilot in Alaska before joining the Air Transport Auxiliary to fly during the war.

On this date in 1917, the North Dakota attorney general's office made a shocking announcement. An arrest warrant had been issued for the president of the Soo Line Railroad, Edmund Pennington, for bringing liquor into the state. The assistant attorney general said immense quantities of liquor had been shipped to illegal clubs, blind pigs, and bawdy houses.
After discussing a few pending issues at the Court, we look back to analyze several decisions from last month-- FBI v. Fikre, a mootness case with national security implications, and the shadow docket dispute in one of many cases named United States v. Texas (the SB4 case)-- and then turn to last Friday's more recent decision in Sheetz v. County of El Dorado about the Takings Clause and local land use policies.

An infamous bootlegger and gambling tycoon, renowned for his role in creating the iconic Stardust Casino & Resort in Las Vegas, Tony "The Admiral" Cornero was a legendary figure. His entrepreneurial spirit led him from the humble origins of an Italian village to the bustling streets of America. Yet, his journey was marked by turbulence and intrigue.Born into hardship, with his family facing financial ruin, Cornero's early life was fraught with adversity. However, he swiftly rose from driving a cab to becoming a rumrunner, amassing a fortune by the tender age of 25. Yet, his rapid ascent fueled egos and bankrolls that ultimately culminated in a fatal encounter in 1925.After a dramatic escape from arrest, Cornero found himself in Vancouver, only to surrender himself years later. Undeterred by his past, he ventured to Las Vegas, where he inaugurated one of the city's pioneering resorts, the Meadows Casino & Hotel. However, his refusal to associate with notorious figures like Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky led to arson, destroying his property.Returning to Southern California, Cornero launched gambling ships off the shores of Santa Monica and Long Beach, most notably the SS Rex. Yet, his ventures drew the ire of State Attorney General Earl Warren, leading to a dramatic showdown dubbed "The Battle of Santa Monica Bay."Despite setbacks, including the revocation of his gambling license and a near-fatal shooting, Cornero persisted.

Join me as we head to Western Kentucky, to meet a man who took his moonshining skills and family traditions and found a way to legalize them and give people a taste of moonshine culture and spirits distilled in one of the most unique looking stills you'll ever see - the square coffin still. Enjoy my conversation with Arlon "AJ" Casey Jones of the Casey Jones Distillery. Lots of stories, history, and a tasting of their 7 year old barrel proof moonshine. Enjoy! Cheers! Drew
Pauline Pusser was shot and killed in an ambush believed to be meant for her husband, Sheriff Buford Pusser, in August of 1967 in McNairy County. According to the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation, an autopsy was never performed on Pauline's body. Mike Elam is an author, former law enforcement officer, and historian with a focus on Sheriff Buford Pusser's life and the unsolved murder of Pauline Pusser. His book, "Buford Pusser: The Other Story," dives into the complexities of the Pusser legend and presents evidence that questions the accepted narrative. Listeners can learn more about Mike's work on Pauline's case at his YouTube channel - https://www.youtube.com/@bufordpusser1122/videos Resources: Walking Tall (1973) BUFORD PUSSER: The Other Story In this episode of Zone 7, Crime Scene Investigator, Sheryl McCollum, discusses the unsolved murder of Pauline Pusser with Former Officer, Mike Elam.

Long before internet archives and the anytime, anywhere convenience of streaming, people collected, traded, and shared radio and television content via informal networks that crisscrossed transnational boundaries. Eleanor Patterson's fascinating cultural history explores the distribution of radio and TV tapes from the 1960s through the 1980s. Looking at bootlegging against the backdrop of mass media's formative years, Patterson delves into some of the major subcultures of the era. Old-time radio aficionados felt the impact of inexpensive audio recording equipment and the controversies surrounding programs like Amos ‘n' Andy. Bootlegging communities devoted to buddy cop TV shows like Starsky and Hutch allowed women to articulate female pleasure and sexuality while Star Trek videos in Australia inspired a grassroots subculture built around community viewings of episodes. Tape trading also had a profound influence on creating an intellectual pro wrestling fandom that aided wrestling's growth into an international sports entertainment industry.

Once upon a time, I was deep into collecting bootleg recordings of my favourite bands…and this obsession came from a really good place…at least I thought so… I'd already bought all the albums and singles, collected a bunch of memorabilia, snapped up the t-shirts, and gone to all the shows…but I wanted more…the only place let to go was unofficial—read: illegal—releases… Almost everything I accurate was on cd…some were burned discs that I traded for with other hardcore fans…I might go to eBay once in a while…there were a few stores I knew that stocked these discs for special customers…and whenever I went overseas to certain countries were copyright laws were lax—Russia, Indonesia, a few places in the Caribbean—I'd be sure to visit the market stalls to see what they had…I honestly wasn't trying to rip off or hurt anyone…I just loved these bands so much that I needed to own a copy of everything they did…once, when I talked about my bootlegs on the radio—probably not a smart idea—I got a letter from the head of a recorded industry organization calling me “morally reprehensible” … But over the years, these hardcopy bootlegs became harder and harder to find, thanks to crackdowns on illegal exploitation of intellectual property, the disappearance of these record stores, and, most importantly, the rise of online file-sharing…by 2008 or so, the physical bootleg market had all but collapsed…I haven't acquired anything new for my collection for almost a couple of decades now… But I've never lost my fascination for this recordings…where did they come from?...how were they made?...who distributed them?...did they really hurt artists and the industry?...and what kind of legacy did old-school bootlegs leave behind?... I've found some answers to those questions and more…this is another look at bootlegging, part 2… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
On December 24, 1877, Thomas Edison filed a patent for a new invention he referred to as a “talking machine”…for the first time ever, audio could be captured, played back, stored, shared, and analyzed… When asked what the point of his machine was, Edison listed some future possibilities…. His phonograph (as he called it) would eventually be used as a method of preserving great speeches….it could also be used for making audio letters, giving dictation, a talking clock, a telephone answering machine, and remote learning…and way down the list was “reproduction of music”… That original talking machine technology has evolved greatly over the years and the “capture and reproduction of music” has moved way up on Edison's original list of uses…the recorded music industry is now worth tens and tens of billions of dollars… But the phonograph also gave birth to a new type of music industry…when it first went on sale, copyright laws weren't ready…they had been drafted and enforced with the printed word in mind, not with audio recordings…this meant that people began making recordings that weren't exactly authorized in the proper ways… This gave birth to another industry, one that worked in the shadows of record labels, music publishers, performing rights organizations, and all the rest of the legitimate record music industry… What started with secretly recorded Edison phonograph cylinders progressed through reel-to-reel tape recordings, unauthorized vinyl records, cassettes, CDs, and digital files freely traded online…you may have some of these recordings in your collection—and you may not even know it… The original name of such recordings is “bootlegs”…here are a few things about them that you might wanna know… Learn more about your ad choices.

Giuseppe “Joseph” Parisi while sitting in his jail cell penned a diary that serves as the foundation for this intriguing narrative. The epic unfolds in Southern Italy, where 17-year-old Giuseppe embarked on a journey to America. As the year 1920 marked the onset of Prohibition, a wave of feuds swept the nation, and West Springfield, MA, was no exception. The catalyst? The murder of Carlo Siniscalchi, the King of Little Italy, at the hands of Giuseppe.This notorious event catapulted the story onto the national stage, sparking a mob war that lasted 13 years and a trial drew over 2000 spectators during the intense closing arguments. The jury, after contemplation, delivered a verdict that echoed through the corridors of justice.In the aftermath, jurors united in signing a petition against the sentencing. Meanwhile, Carlo's widow, Pasqualina, assumed the mantle of the Queen of Bootlegging, only to meet a tragic end as she was brutally murdered in front of her companion, who peculiarly escaped with just a minor injury. Was he trying to take control of her empire?Fast forward to later years, Giuseppe, now seeking citizenship, found himself filing papers alongside his former attorney, now holding the esteemed position of the governor of Massachusetts. Nick tantalizes you with a sneak peek into his forthcoming book, promising another riveting tale.Nick Parisi Links:Website: https://authornicholasparisi.myshopify.com/Buy Mafia Confessions: King of Bootleggers-Murder: https://www.amazon.com/MAFIA-CONFESSION-Bootleggers-Murder-Prohibition/dp/B0CMYKQHBLFollow Nick on IG: https://www.instagram.com/author_nicholas_parisi/?hl=en Before the Lights Links:Hire Tommy to Speak for Your Organization: https://tommycanale.com/Get Tommy a Glass of Vino: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/beforethelightsBecome a BTL Member: https://www.beforethelightspod.com/supportBefore the Lights Website: https://www.beforethelightspod.com/Please Rate & Review the show!Support the showFollow the show on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beforethelightspodcast/Follow the show on Face Book: https://www.facebook.com/beforethelightspodcast/Follow the show on Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beforethelightspodcast?lang=enFollow Tommy on Face Book: https://www.facebook.com/tcanale3Rate & Review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/before-the-lights/id1501245041Email the host: beforethelightspod@gmail.com

Lionel Richie, Stupid Laws and Bootlegging. Enjoy
January 17th, 1920 was the day the United States was suppose to get sober. Prohibition and the Volstead Act were officially official, and things were going to change. Prior to Prohibition things weren't great. Drunken crimes were hitting too close to home, and some thought drying out the country was the answer. What they didn't count on was the crime that came with the pursuit of supplying bootleg liqour to the masses who still wanted to wet their beak. Join us as we get Historically High on Prohibition!
Over 100 years ago this month, Congress approved the act that would soon make prohibition the law of the land. While some Louisianans supported the so-called “noble experiment,” most were unhappy with the idea. Not only has the state long been home to carnival celebrations where alcohol plays a prominent role, but the location of New Orleans and Baton Rouge on the Mississippi River made them important port cities for alcohol shipping and distribution.Sam Hyde, professor of history and director of the Center for Southeast Louisiana Studies at Southeastern Louisiana University, joins us for more on the history of prohibition, bootlegging and speakeasies in Louisiana. When you think of cajun music, you might think of an accordion, a fiddle or even a washboard. But some musicians have discovered a relationship between cajun and classical genres, and are incorporating that into their work. Mary Grace Ellerbee is a pianist from Zachary, La. and the inaugural recipient of the Everett G. Powers Fund for Creativity award from the Arts Council of Greater Baton Rouge. She joins us to discuss the cajun and classical crossovers in her latest work, “Quatre Chansons Cadiennes.” Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Adam Vos.

The term ‘rumrunning' might be associated with Prohibition-era goons in the American Midwest. But bootlegging is alive and well today, and this week's episode goes from Sean's surprising discovery in western India, to a booze-inspired political execution in Pakistan, a Scot in Saudi shackles, homemade soju in Kuwait—and much more.

Skip James's most famous lyric was “I'd rather be the Devil” and he put his money where his mouth was. He shot a man dead, spent time as a pimp and a bootlegger, and womanized up and down the United States. Skip may have eventually found religion, and even recognition as the last great bluesman to be discovered by white America, but all that devilish living–and a possible hex–would bring his lifestyle to a brutal end.
