Brisbane, Australia's The Saints are responsible for two of the greatest punk albums of all time, in 1977's '(I'm) Stranded' and 1978's 'Eternally Yours.' This November, look for “The Saints '73-‘78” to be touring North America, featuring original members Ed Kuepper and Ivor Hay, along with The Birthday Party's Mick Harvey, the Sunnyboys' Peter Oxley and Mudhoney's Mark Arm, in service of original lead singer Chris Bailey, lost to us in 2022. Additionally, there's a four-LP boxset version of the milestone debut album out, as well as a new solo album from Ed, done in conjunction with Jim White from the Dirty Three, called 'After the Flood.' Check out Goldmine author Martin Popoff interview The Saints guitarist/ vocalist/songwriter Ed Kuepper in a wide-ranging chat that looks at how The Saints dovetailed into the punk movement, along with a fair bit on each of the three albums covered by the upcoming tour, plus a look at the new solo album. We also touch upon the creative differences that led to Ed's split with Chris after the band's controversial third album, 'Prehistoric Sounds,' issued in October of 1978. Horns? Acoustic guitars? Surely The Saints didn't invent punk?! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
The Saints were a very important band in the history of Australian rock. Their mixture of melodic but greasy garage rock with a punk spirit was unlike anything else in the 70s. It produced the song they're still best known for, "(I'm) Stranded", one of the greatest punk anthems ever. That debut album of the same name from 1977 was recently given the deluxe treatment - 4 albums of remastered versions, b-sides, live shows, and more. Guitarist Ed Kuepper joins us to discuss his own, and the band's history including how they made that killer debut, why he left the band after three albums for a solo career, the loss of Saints frontman Chris Bailey, and a ton more.

"Top 5 Winter Songs? A winter themed episode, lads? In August?!? Good timing, doofuses!" We hear you, imaginary (and, frankly, rather rude) podcast critic. And our retort is that our friends in the southern hemisphere are still firmly in the grips of winter. For example, our Third Lad this week, one of the greatest songwriters that Australia has ever produced (and an artist who is on the short list of Brett's musical heroes), Peter Milton Walsh from The Apartments! PMW has led the Apartments in various incarnations since 1978, starting with the spiky indie pop of the EP 'The Return of the Hypnotist' on The Go-Betweens' Able Label. After brief stints with The Go-Betweens and Ed Kuepper's post-Saints band The Laughing Clowns, the Apartments reformed in 1984 with the classic single "All You Wanted." Their first full length, 'The Evening Visits...And Stays For Years', followed in 1985 on Rough Trade, with the 1987 single "The Shyest Time" featured on the John Hughes soundtrack for Some Kind of Wonderful. Among the Apartments' string of breathtakingly gorgeous, diverse records are 'Drift' (1993), 'A Life Full Of Farewells' (1995), 'Apart' (1997), 'No Song No Spell No Madrigal' (2015), and 'In And Out Of The Light' (2020). For the uninitiated, Welcome to Walsh World! Peter stopped by in between sessions for a forthcoming record. Just as a small forewarning, we recorded our lists afterwards...so any juvenile, off-topic or off-colour side conversations about pillows, tank tops, getting lost in department stores, or Art Garfunkel lookalikes are no reflection on the pure class of Mr. Walsh. Hopefully, to quote the man himself, we didn't "take something good and make a mess of it". Special thanks to Marc Shea from the great fellow Pantheon show Performance Anxiety for the introduction, and much gratitude to Peter's wife Kate for the coordination.

In this episode of New Politics, we provide an alternative assessment of the 2024 Budget, exploring its reception across various media outlets, economic assessments, and the underlying political machinations. Of course, most of the reactions from major players in the media landscape, including News Corporation, Nine/Fairfax, the ABC and the Guardian, are mostly negative and it's their inherent biases that shape public perception.We also look at the underlying priorities revealed in the Budget, such as the $11 billion in fossil fuel subsidies juxtaposed against the $6.5 billion allocated for social housing and homelessness, and the relatively minimal support for the arts and creative industries.What is the significance of the Budget in the context of the next federal election and how does it set the stage for the campaign? Will there even be another Budget before the next election? It's unlikely: this smells like, tastes like and looks like a pre-election Budget, we don't think there'll be another one in this parliamentary term.We also turn our attention to the federal government's new Future Gas Strategy, which looks very similar to Scott Morrison's much-derided 2020 gas-led recovery plan – we discuss the environmental and economic ramifications of expanding gas production until 2050 and ask the question: how does pumping more greenhouse emissions into the atmosphere actually decrease greenhouse emissions, as claimed by the minister for resources? It doesn't – but a bit of gaslighting of the electorate will always reduce the political problem.We then cover the sentencing of whistleblower David McBride, who exposed war crimes committed by Australian Special Forces in Afghanistan. This case raises significant questions about whistleblower protections and the government's commitment to transparency and accountability. Why is McBride in jail, when the people who committed the war crimes are still free?And Senator Fatima Payman displays more courage in her little left finger than the entire government and she will probably pay a large price for this courage. That's Australian politics: courage is always punished, cowardice is always rewarded.

Respected as one of Australia's iconic musicians, Ian Moss (5x time Aria winner & original member / guitarist of Australian super group 'Cold Chisel' drops by to discuss his current live tour and Rivers Run Dry' Deluxe Album Release. Brad explores the history of the term ‘album' and have a good ol' ramble about the changing view of full length records in the modern music business. Watch video of this episodeFollow the RC Music PlaylistListen to RIVERS RUN DRY by IAN MOSSListen to Bradley McCaw's musicFollow Brad everywhere @bradleymccawofficialBrought to by True Arts Podcast NetworkCreated, produced, hosted & engineered by Bradley McCaw.Original sound design by Matt Erskine at Crosspoint SolutionsOriginal Video designed by Adam Shaw at Axis Productions Theme composed by James RyanAbout IAN MOSS:Respected as one of Australia's iconic musicians, Ian Moss delivers an unforgettable sound – not only as a telling soloist on guitar but especially with his silken voice, ringing with clarity and resonating with pure soul. While primarily recognised as an axeman of unusual tenacity and sweet melodic sensibility, Ian's distinctive vocal is the essential signature of his soulful, bluesy muse – as it has been since his first tentative foray into music during the early 1970s.Born and raised in Alice Springs, Ian started playing guitar in local teenage bands but moved to Adelaide after failing one of his high school years, planning to repeat in the big city. Fate intervened when he answered an advertisement for a guitarist in a shop window in 1973, joining the band that was to become a legend in Australia – Cold Chisel. After Moss joined organist and principal songwriter Don Walker and drummer Steve Prestwich, the group took shape with singer Jimmy Barnes and eventually bass player Phil Small, starting the hard grind of playing gigs on the back of flatbed trucks and in suburban hotels. Barnes remembered young Mossy as “a boy from the bush who didn't wear shoes but played fantastic”. They hit the road and paid their dues, playing countless one-night stands across the country. The reputation and status of Cold Chisel steadily grew, mainly on the strength of blistering live shows, and in time their well-crafted recordings became staples of radio airplay.By 1980, with the release of the seminal East album, Cold Chisel was the biggest band in the country. Moreover, they defined a national sound – hard-driving rock chased by a shot of blues, lyrics depicting the Australian experience and resonating powerfully with young working class fans. Moss's voice began to shine through such seminal Cold Chisel songs as Never Before, Bow River (written by Moss) and a gorgeous rendition of Ray Charles' Georgia. However, efforts to translate overwhelming Australian success to Europe and the United States failed to gain traction, serving to demoralise, frustrate and eventually dissolve the band at the height of its creative powers. While the band's Last Stand tour in December 1983 closed an important chapter in Ian Moss's musical career, Cold Chisel remains one of Australia's favourite bands long after its demise.Enjoying the status of Australia's best guitarist, Moss carefully evolved into a solo artist of the same calibre and commanding the same respect as Cold Chisel. After five years of patient nurturing, Moss released his debut single Tucker's Daughter in January 1989, and caused an immediate sensation. The anthemic song – which Moss wrote in collaboration with Don Walker – sat in the Top 10 for 11 weeks and hit No 1 for two weeks, achieving gold sales status after 15 weeks and selling more than 73,000 copies. Moss's second solo single, Telephone Booth, was released in June that year, hit the Top 10 and remained in the Top 20 for 10 weeks.This bold renaissance of his solo career amplified Moss's willingness to embrace new ideas and influences. “It took a bit of nerve for me to unplug and play acoustic, but it injected this freshness into my playing,” he says. “It was a significant new path for me.” Heartened by success for that album, a second chapter of Moss's acoustic recordings – his sixth solo album Let's All Get Together, released in 2007 – saw the input of guests including James Morrison and Margaret Urlich adding colour to striking new interpretations of familiar songs, including Flame Trees and Choir Girl. To support the album release, Moss undertook an extensive tour with former Noiseworks and INXS singer Jon Stevens, and further touring in early 2008 showed Moss to be an especially dextrous musical stylist; not just a rock player, not just an acoustic strummer, but a truly seasoned and rounded musical talent.In 2008, Moss was on the Australian television series It Takes Two, singing duets with celebrities and showing a side of his musical character that surprised many listeners. “When I put aside the guitar and sang a few soul ballads on that show, people were suddenly listening to me differently. They'd say ‘Yeah, we knew you sang, but we didn't know you could really sing'. It was both flattering and frustrating. I kept wondering what they thought I'd been doing for past 30 years. It showed that there was a different side of my music that hadn't really been heard by enough people before.” Mossy is now allowing his guitar work to take a back seat while he concentrates on singing – which is the focus of his new album Soul on West 53rd that features fresh takes on classic soul songs from the likes of Sam Cooke, Al Green, Otis Redding and Levi Stubbs.This product of New York recording sessions with producer Danny Kortchmar and an all-star band of soul session musicians, including drummer Steve Jordan, Leon Pendarvis on keyboards, Neil Jason on bass and Hugh McCracken on guitar, is another bold venture from Moss that will certainly turn heads. When audiences hear the power and excitement on Soul on West 53rd, it will reinforce what Ian Moss has to offer as a vocalist of repute. The album release will also give him the impetus to reconnect with his supportive legion of European audiences – and maybe even reach America. “It's nice to fantasise about that, taking my soul songs to America. I'd love to give it a try, but I know it won't be easy.”Significantly, as Moss prepares to introduce material from his new album to live audiences, the influence of his New York soul sessions has inspired a new burst of song writing for him. “Working with such classic songs has brought a lot of ideas for original material as well. For the next album, featuring my own songs, I'd expect it to follow the same style. There's something really great going on here.”The setting had been established for Moss to emerge as an important solo artist. His debut album Matchbook, released in August 1989, entered the charts at No 1 and remained there for three consecutive weeks. It stayed in the Top 10 for 14 weeks and has sold more than 185,000 copies.When he went back out on the road, Moss's live shows drew a hoard of Chisel faithful and a league of new fans. In 1989, Moss toured for 25 weeks, playing dynamic and energetic performances five or six nights every week to virtually full houses across Australia. Crowds were left hungry for more.Moss closed off a triumphant year by winning five Australian Record Industry Association Awards in 1989: Best Australian Debut Single for Tucker's Daughter and Best Australian Debut Album for Matchbook, Australian Song of the Year for Tucker's Daughter, Best Australian Album for Matchbook and Best Australian Male Artist.In 1990, Mossy took his music to the world, touring and gaining airplay across Scandinavia and northern Europe. At home, as a live video recorded on the Matchbook Concert Tour went Gold on the day of release, Moss returned to the studio to start recording his second album, Worlds Away. Released in Australia in October 1991, the album was then issued in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and Scandinavia the following year. In 1993, Moss consolidated his growing European fan base with tours in April and May through Germany, Austria, and Switzerland, earning high praise in fantastic reviews.Moss took stock of his musical output in 1995, changing direction to embrace the blues in bolder fashion, and in the studio this translated to recording a much tougher album than his previous releases suggested. Petrolhead, his third solo offering that was released in 1996, had Moss playing bluesy rock with none of the heavily produced, big budget sheen that had been applied his late-1980s and early-1990s recordings. With lan Rilen (from Rose Tattoo and X) on bass, Paul Demarco (Rose Tattoo, Catfish) on drums and Don Walker on occasional keyboards and song writing, the sound was recorded almost live, stripped back and honest without ever losing its innate power. “It was a conscious decision to get back to something I was always happy doing,” says Moss. “The result is tough, ballsy blues meets rock… plenty of heart, alive and kicking.”A Cold Chisel reunion during 1998 – both in the studio for the recording of new material and subsequent touring to promote the resulting Last Wave of Summer album – put Ian back in the national spotlight as a showman and musician of dazzling ability. It reminded the Australian public of Moss's alluring talent and diversity as a performer, as did another Cold Chisel reunion tour in 2003 and his input to Jimmy Barnes' Double Happiness album of duets in 2005.However, during 2005, Moss's musical output took another exciting fresh turn. He was invited to record an album of acoustic songs for Liberation Music and the Six Strings album – part of the Liberation Blue label's engaging acoustic series – was the result.2018 will bring a new chapter in Ian's career as he releases the new self-titled studio album, his sixth, and heads to the road for what will be his biggest national tour in decades. In 2007 he told the Sydney Morning Herald, “I haven't made my definitive album yet.” Ten years later with his the self-titled “Ian Moss”, he might have just done that.Mossy's sublime playing – on his Fender electric and Maton acoustic – is as expressive as ever. “Sometimes the words are useless for what it is I'm trying to get across,” he confides in ‘Hold On (To What We Got)'.Of course, that underplays Mossy's vocal – a superb instrument in its own right – as well as the powerful personal stories on this record. But Mossy's finest work is all about feel. And it's that feel that tells you everything you need to know.It's no accident that the album is self-titled. This is the pure stuff. Classic Mossy.In August of 2018 Ian was invited to take part in the Jimmy Webb and Friends concerts along side David Campbell, Kate Ceberano, Ed Kuepper, Cold Chisel bandmate Jimmy Barnes and of course the master songwriter Jimmy Webb and blew the room away.In October 2018 he performed the Cold Chisel classic ‘Flame Trees' to a global audience of millions at the opening ceremony of the Invictus Games on the Steps of the iconic Sydney Opera House.2019 saw the 30th Anniversary of the iconic and landmark album Matchbook and a national tour with a killer band that received rave reviews. The album was released on August 1, 1989 and peaked at #1 on the ARIA Albums Chart. It remained in the Top 10 for an amazing 14 weeks, shipping more than 200,000 copies in the first 12 months alone. The album went on to win Album of the Year, Best Male Artist and Breakthrough Artist – Album, Breakthrough Artist – Single and Song of the Year (shared with Don Walker) for ‘Tucker's Daughter' at the ARIA Music Awards in 1990.As Cold Chisel's biographer Anthony O'Grady observed, “When Moss goes into guitar dream world he pulls out chords and notes and sounds that do not fit the plot as such, but which create new dimensions – astounding stuff that can never be reached through intellectual process, only through a quantum leap of intuition and imagination.”
In this episode of New Politics, we look at the big week in Canberra, highlighting the continuing issues that have dominated the headlines and the halls of Parliament. Firstly, we examine the incident involving Barnaby Joyce's public intoxication in Canberra, which reignites discussions on the standards of behaviour expected from public figures. Joyce's actions are not just a personal failing but a reflection of broader issues within the political landscape, including double standards, substance misuse within Parliament, and the leniency often afforded to certain politicians.We also discuss Senator Linda Reynolds' announcement of her departure from politics at the next election, raising questions about the commitment and effectiveness of politicians who are on their way out but still hold office.The then explore the passage of the “right to disconnect” legislation, designed to protect employees from work-related intrusions into their personal time. Despite its benefits, the opposition, led by Peter Dutton, signals a contentious political climate, with debates skewed by media portrayal and party politics. Adding to the controversy, allegations against Peter Dutton during his tenure as Home Affairs Minister are scrutinised. Accusations of misconduct involving contracts and audits raise serious concerns about accountability and oversight within government operations.A surprising development in Parliament saw the success of a motion by independent MP Andrew Wilkie, advocating for the end of the prosecution of Julian Assange—a decision met with resistance from the Coalition, highlighting the divisive nature of political support and opposition in Australia.Lastly, the episode covers the unexpected call for a snap election in Tasmania by Premier Jeremy Rockliff, prompted by governmental instability and pressing local issues. This move could signify a pivotal moment for the Liberal Party and for Tasmanian politics, addressing or exacerbating existing challenges in health, education, and housing.Join us as we unpack these developments, offering insights into the ramifications for Australian politics and the ongoing debates that shape the nation's future. #AUSPOL #assangeSong listing:‘Confessions Of A Window Cleaner', Ed Kuepper.‘Just Give 'Em Whiskey', Colourbox.‘Praise You', Fat Boy Slim.

We look at songs from a few of the major protest movements in our lifetime – racism, Vietnam, Ireland, Margaret Thatcher! From Woody Guthrie, through Springsteen and Dylan, to racism and Vietnam and the UK's Margaret Thatcher, to present-day Australia, we look at some of the great protest songs. Some of the stories behind those songs will take your breath away. Our “Album You Must Hear before You Die” this time is Talking Heads' awesome “Remain in Light” from 1980. This album has been hailed as Talking Heads' greatest statement, the last and most accomplished of the trio of albums they recorded with Brian Eno (another of our idols). Seemingly timed to coincide with our review, the live movie “Stop Making Sense” has been completely restored and is in 4K on the big screen - 40 years on! We also talk about how Ed Kuepper achieves such a big sound in concert using a special edition Fender Stratocaster. There's sure to be stuff you didn't know here!

In this episode, we unpack the recent High Court ruling that ended indefinite detention, challenges Australia's immigration policies and the subsequent political storm it has ignited. The decision to release 81 unlawfully detained asylum seekers sparks a broader conversation about the government's response and potential shifts in immigration legislation.The intricacies of the proposed misinformation and truth in political advertising laws: we explore the hurdles faced by the Labor government in balancing public demand with the opposition's critique. With a staggering 87% of the electorate supporting such laws, we question the government's delay in their implementation and the underlying political dynamics at play.We then look at the trial of David McBride, a whistleblower shedding light on war crimes committed by Australian troops in Afghanistan. We analyse the government's stance on whistleblower reform, contrasting actions against McBride, Bernard Collaery, and Julian Assange, and look into the complexities of legal actions and the anticipated reforms in whistleblower legislation.There's more trouble in the Liberal Party, with the defection of Russell Broadbent to now sit as an independent MP, breaking the record for the number of MPs on the crossbench. We look implications of this departure on Australian politics, the future of the Liberal Party and the potential impact on the upcoming elections.We end this episode with the ongoing conflict in Gaza and the international pressure on Israel to cease military actions and analyse the Australian government's stance on the issue and the recent confrontation between Peter Dutton and Anthony Albanese in Parliament. We then examine the challenges of addressing this complex geopolitical issue without succumbing to social division, and the National Press Club address by Dr. Francesca Albanese, who gave the media a good lesson in media ethics.Song listing:‘Prayer In C', Lilly Wood and The Prick (Robin Schulz remix).‘Confessions Of A Window Cleaner', Ed Kuepper.‘The Last Goodbye', Odesza.‘Praise You', Fat Boy Slim.

Everyone has heard of Leonard Cohen, but not so many know much about him. With this episode, we look to give you a taste of Mr Cohen – his views on life, women and songwriting; his extraordinary influence on modern songwriting; his legacy, and, of course, “Hallelujah”! A world that never had Leonard Cohen in it would be a much lesser place indeed. Jeff gives us his holiday report on a visit to the only Museum in the world dedicated to penises, whose prime exhibit is a plaster cast of Jimi Hendrix' tackle. (It's true!!) We give an update on our Ed Kuepper episode, with a report on his live concert in Sydney in September, which was fantastic! We take a quick look at a few of the icons we've lost so far this year including Tom Verlaine (Television), Burt Bacharach, Andy Rourke (The Smiths), Francis Monkman (Sky, 801), and Sinead O'Connor. In honour of Sinead, our Album You Must Hear Before You Die is her “I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got” (1990), which we both agree is an absolute cracker of an album. Haven't heard it?

This episode, we look at Ed Kuepper, whose fame sadly does not match in any way his contribution to rock'n'roll! Bursting out of Brisbane in the mid-70's, Ed helped found The Saints, one of the key influences on punk. Tiring of The Saints, he created The Laughing Clowns, before launching into a solo career interspersed with stints in The Aints and The Bad Seeds. The “Album You Must Hear before You Die” is the immortal “Tubular Bells”, Virgin Records' first-ever release. This was one of the first albums Mick ever bought, and what an album to start with! Mick recounts the story how the Tubular Bells themselves, left behind in the studio after John Cale recorded “Paris 1919”, were a late addition to what became an iconic album. On a lighter note, Jeff introduces extreme kayaking, and considers the possibility of a “Mick and the Phatman”-branded team, sponsored by a leading brand, leaping over 1000-metre waterfalls! Enjoy!

Rockshow Episode 163 The Saints. The Saints were an Australian rock band, originating in Brisbane, Queensland in 1973. The band was founded by Chris Bailey (singer-songwriter, later guitarist), Ivor Hay (drummer), and Ed Kuepper (guitarist-songwriter). They were initially labeled a punk band because, like American punk rock band the Ramones, the Saints were employing the fast tempos, raucous vocals and "buzzsaw" guitar that characterised early punk rock – although this only reflects a portion of their overall sound. With their debut single "(I'm) Stranded" in September 1976, they became the first punk band outside the US to release a record, ahead of better-known acts the Damned, the Sex Pistols and the Clash. They are considered one of the first and most influential groups of the genre, particularly within Australia. Aside from mainstay Bailey, the group also had numerous line-up changes – in early 1979, Ivor Hay and Ed Kuepper left, while Bailey continued under the moniker with new musicians. Although the band achieved little commercial success in its early years, their seventh album All Fools Day peaked in the Top 30 on the Australian Kent Music Report Albums Chart in April 1986. Bailey also forged a solo career, and had relocated to Sweden by 1994. The band was inducted into the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) Hall of Fame in 2001. Bailey died in April 2022, effectively ending the band. https://m.facebook.com/TheSaintsOfficial https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/chris-bailey-the-saints-dead-obituary-1335779/amp/ https://punk.fandom.com/wiki/The_Saints https://mobile.twitter.com/barisolanhasan/status/1101705255849549824 #musicvideo #musicstudio #musiclover #musiclife #musicindustry #musiclovers #musiccover #musician #musicproducer #musicproduction #musicians #musicislife #musicartist #musicphotography #musicvideos #Music #drummer #Guitar @drummers @spotify @twitter #grammy @grammy @Australia #Australia #TheSaints @TheSaints @punk #Punk #goldalbum #Platinumalbum @Platinum @gold Please follow us on Youtube,Facebook,Instagram,Twitter,Patreon and at www.gettinglumpedup.com https://linktr.ee/RobRossi Get your T-shirt at https://www.prowrestlingtees.com/gettinglumpedup And https://www.bonfire.com/store/getting-lumped-up/ https://app.hashtag.expert/?fpr=roberto-rossi80 https://dc2bfnt-peyeewd4slt50d2x1b.hop.clickbank.net Subscribe to the channel and hit the like button This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/rob-rossi/support https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/getting-lumped-up-with-rob-rossi/id1448899708 https://open.spotify.com/show/00ZWLZaYqQlJji1QSoEz7a https://www.patreon.com/Gettinglumpedup --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/rob-rossi/support
Ed Kuepper & The Queensland Symphony Orchestra: Live at The Tivoli, Fortitude Valley, 5 November 2020 Ed Kuepper has been a presence in Australian music for nearly fifty years. Born in Bremen, West Germany, Kuepper's family migrated to Brisbane when he was a child. In high school he co-founded the band that would become The Saints, one of the most influential groups in the history of punk music. After three albums with The Saints, Kuepper left the band to pursue more esoteric styles of music. He formed the band Laughing Clowns, which produced a more avant-garde jazz kind of sound. In the 1990s he returned to heavier rock music with The Aints, a project that was revived again in the 2010s, now with an exclamation mark at the end of their name. The Aints! were previously featured in episodes 267 and 269 of Live Delay. Since the mid-1980s Kuepper has released a long and steady stream of solo albums, crossing a broad swathe of genres though always anchored by his singular style of guitar playing. We previously aired a solo set of his in episode 145. In 2017 Kuepper teamed up for a collaboration with the Queensland Symphony Orchestra, reinterpreting songs from his vast back catalogue in a live performance for the Brisbane Festival. In 2020 the collaboration was repeated, with Live Delay there to capture the event. The QSO was conducted by Peter Morris on the night, with orchestrations by Rob Davidson. Recorded by James Fearn-Wannan Mixed by James Fearn-Wannan Show production, engineering and host: Scott Mercer Originally aired via Zed Digital, 7-8pm, Sunday 4 September, 2022
Having wowed audiences with their take on 45 years worth of Kuepper catalogue, Ed Kuepper and Jim White return to their COVID interrupted tour. As a founding member of The Saints, Ed reflects on his time and relationship with the late singer Chris Bailey, who died earlier this year.
"Best of" lists can be subjective, depending on who is surveyed, and what they were asked. There's a huge difference between popular and “all-time great”, and great music needs to stand the test of time. So, we've had a look back at Aussie albums over the years and decided we'd talk about some albums we regard as the "best of all time".

Legendary Australian guitarist Ed Kuepper and drummer Jim White will finally head back out on the road in 2022 after lockdowns put a pause on touring. Ed Kuepper's behind some of Australia's most influential bands including punk outfit The Saints, as well as the Laughing Clowns and the Aints, but he's less well known for his forays into experimental jazz.
We enter the wasteland of Joh Bjelke Petersen-era Brisbane and meet a band, The Saints, who went from playing in Petrie Terrace to London and Paris because they had the audacity to make and distribute their own record.

When I say the name Ed Kuepper, what comes to mind? The Saints? Laughing Clowns? The Aints? Maybe his prolific solo career, or his work crafting beautiful soundtracks for the big and small screen. Born in Germany, and raised in Brissie, Ed Kuepper is a living legend of the Australian underground, and his impact on the artists that have followed stretches decades. In 2021 he marks 45 years as a recording artist, so I thought it was high time he joined me to Take 5. While his work has travelled from punk to avant garde jazz and beautifully languid guitar, I was curious about the songs that fuelled him, over five decades of making music. Some of these songs make total sense, others are total brilliant curveballs. Grounding it all is the rumbling voice of one of our greatest guitarists, songwriters, and storytellers.

Anne & Kevin talk with Ed Kuepper about the working life of a musician. Ed started his musical career as co-founder of early punk band The Saints, then formed experimental post-punk group the Laughing Clowns. After releasing over 50 albums his last venture came full circle forming post-pre-punk band The Aints!
“In And Out Of The Light” Peter Milton Walsh of the Apartments is the Dean of the darkness and the light. Like an indie rock Virgil, in his work the Brisbane-born singer/songwriter expertly guides us through the roughest waters and brings us back to solid ground. It’s hard to think of anyone else who’s oeuvre' is so devastatingly perfect. A songwriter of poetic precision, spellbinding stillness and wrenching balladry, Walsh is practically peerless. His band’s new album In And Out Of The Light is mesmerizing, heartbreaking and unreasonably beautiful. After the band broke up, Walsh played in the Go-Betweens and Ed Kuepper’s Laughing Clowns before getting the second incarnation of the Apartments going. In this conversation the genial Walsh talks to Alex about how his recording process has changed, the creative and editorial synergy of Robert Forster and Grant McLennan,the tricky sequencing of the new album and what becomes of beauty in the physical world...
Seja talks to her guest Ed Kuepper (The Saints, The Laughing Clowns) about the beginnings of the Saints, growing up in Brisbane, and pre punk tabloid hysteria. Ed tells Seja about how much the band achieved in its short lifespan, how getting banned from venues made them open their own club, and what a revelation it was moving to London. Ed and Seja chat about their love of the Kinks, their feelings about 2007's Pig City show that the Saints briefly reformed for, and writing songs in German. Ed's show story was illustrated by Alex Gillies (@againstwoodgrain). You can see his work on Etsy under AlexGilliesWoodcuts.

"Ed Kuepper Says If You Want Cheery You’ve Called The Wrong Person” Although that statement has an Abandon Hope All Ye Who Enter Here kind of vibe, Ed Kuepper is actually one of the most genial fellows around. The former guitarist (and founder) of the legendary Australian punk band The Saints and the Laughing Clowns talks to Alex about his early interest in composition, the scene in London in the ‘70s and what it was like to dust off the material he wrote over 40 years ago that now comprises his band The Aints! new album The Church Of Simultaneous Existence. Kuepper also talks about his discipline as a guitar player, why he almost quit playing music a few times and the current state of his relationship with Saints singer Chris Bailey.
Ed Kuepper of The Aints! discusses new mini album 5,6,7,8,9 and national tour.

The Aints The Aints were formed by Ed Kuepper who formed the legendary The Saints in Brisbane which became one of the world’s first punk bands. There are two iterations of The Aints, they first popped up on the scene in the early 90’s and released a few EP’s before peetering out in ‘94 after an album was recorded but never released. The Aints as a name is from the old days when an S had worn off the kick drum which originally said The Saints. For this recent stint in the music world, Kuepper recruited the best of the best to formulate a band which would tear through The Saints back catalogue as well as their own material. Kuepper recruited Peter Oxley from The Sunnyboys on bass, Paul Larsen Loughead from The Celibate Rifles and The New Christs on the drums, Alister Spence on piano and Eamon Dilworth arranging the brass and on trumpet. If you’re a keen listener or just a diehard fan you might want to jump back a few episodes to Episode 267 where we featured the first half of this recording of all classic The Saints songs. This episode however, will feature the second half of that gig where they played the entire set of the new Aints material to an eager crowd. The Aints in 2018 released an album called The Church of Simultaneous Existence which was an epic piece of work and well received by fans so much so that the title track placed at number 90 in the coveted 4ZZZ Hot 100 of 2018. Recorded live at The Triffid on the 27th of October in 2018

The Aints in 2018 released an album called The Church of Simultaneous Existence which if you stay tuned to Live Delay you might just hear sometime soon. This set features classics from The Saints but without a doubt The Aints are their own band with their own energy.

The former guitarist (and founder) of the legendary Australian punk band The Saints and the Laughing Clowns talks to Alex about his early interest in composition, the scene in London in the ‘70s and what it was like to dust off the material he wrote over 40 years ago that now comprises his band The Aints! new album The Church Of Simultaneous Existence. Kuepper also talks about his discipline as a guitar player, why he almost quit playing music a few times and the current state of his relationship with Saints singer Chris Bailey.

Founding member of iconic Australian punk band The Saints, Ed Kuepper has a chat with Steve about his new album 'The Church of Simultaneous Existence' with his band The Aints! Ed talks about the 40-year process to write the album, the lead single 'Red Aces' and The Aints! upcoming national tour.
Ed Kuepper is a songwriter and musician. If you’re a regular listener of Penmanship, you’ll already be familiar with at least one of his many songs, as the podcast’s theme music is ‘Eternally Yours’ by his band Laughing Clowns, which he formed in Sydney in 1979. But if you’re a fan of Australian music, there’s a good chance you’ve heard a few others, too: perhaps the title track to the 1977 album (I’m) Stranded by Brisbane punk rock band The Saints, or a single named ‘The Way I Made You Feel’ from his 1991 solo album Honey Steel’s Gold. He has been writing, recording and performing music in Australia and around the world for more than 40 years, and to my ears he is one of this country’s most distinctive and memorable guitarists, too. December 2015 marked the release of Ed Kuepper’s 50th album, Lost Cities, though depending on how you count his prolific solo catalogue, that number might be as high as 100. After exploding out of the gates with the incendiary, distorted guitar tone in The Saints, it’s been fascinating to watch him shift across several genres and playing styles to end up with the sparse arrangements heard here. When reviewing the album for The Australian, I wrote that “there’s nobody quite like him operating in Australian music today, and that he continues to invest in this work is a gift.” In a sense, the album was a gift to himself, too: its release coincided with Ed’s 60th birthday. I first interviewed Ed at his home in the south-west Brisbane suburb of Sherwood for Mess+Noise in 2010, where we spoke about the song ‘Eternally Yours’ at some length. I return to the same house on a quiet Sherwood street in late February 2016 to interview Ed on his back deck, with his dog Oscar lying on the ground between us. You’ll hear cicadas, planes and garbage trucks in the distance as we discuss why Ed thinks fuzz-box guitar distortion sounds “pissweak”; how he avoids retreading the same ground when writing songs; how his writing has progressed between The Saints, Laughing Clowns and his solo career; his experiences with touring as a member of Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds a few years ago, and whether songwriting gets easier with age. Ed Kuepper is an Australian musician. He is a highly regarded and prolific songwriter and a distinctive and unique guitarist and vocalist. He was the founding member of The Saints, Laughing Clowns and The Aints. He has led an active solo career since the mid 1980s and won numerous ARIA awards. He has toured extensively in Australia and internationally. He has worked on film soundtracks, toured as back-up guitarist for Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds, and recently released Lost Cities, his 50th album.
