Episode 173: In Conversation With Billy Vera (Part 1) Sarah usually writes these show notes, and on the rare occasion that I fill in for her, I do something silly - I either make them really short or I have ChatGPT help me by doing most of the work.  This time, I asked to do them because I am still in shock that this episode exists and because it was a true thrill to speak with an artist who has been a favorite of mine since I was 16! After discovering Billy Vera, along with many others of my generation, thanks to the hit comedy "Family Ties", I would go on to collect his entire catalog, with the exception of "Queen of Diamonds / Jack of Hearts" by Evie Sands & Billy Vera which I haven't been able to find yet.  I will one day though!  I would watch him on TV shows like "Wiseguy" and "Into the Night", where he served as a late-night bandleader and often performed his wonderful songs.  I would occasionally be surprised and excited to spot him in movies throughout the 80s and 90s.  He was doing so many great things, and doing all of those things at a level which should have made him a Super Star if there was any justice in the world.   With all of his various talents, songwriting and singing are where Billy truly shines, so getting to talk with him about his career and his music was an amazing experience.  In this first episode (of two), we touched on so many topics, even going back to the mid-1960s and some of his earliest songs.  I really hope you will enjoy this discussion on some of my favorite music.   Topics that we cover in this first episode: ·        Billy's upcoming trip to Italy to perform and  to receive an award at the Porretta Soul Music Festival ·        Working with Jerry Wexler ·        Writing songs professionally in NYC in the 1960s ·        A song he wishes he wrote ·        Writing "Room with a View" with Lowell Fulson ·        Working with Bonnie Raitt ·        Recording "Storybook Children" with Judy Clay ·        Playing the Apollo Theater ·        Thoughts on songwriting ·        Celebrating the 50th anniversary of Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era and "Don't Look Back" ·        His 1988 Capital album "Retro Nuevo" ·        The three styles of Production ·        Working with Lou Rawls and George Benson ·        Working with Arif Mardin ·        How did Jim Keltner become a Beater in 1988? ·        Working on the Blake Edwards movie "Blind Date" ·        Hanging out with Bruce Willis, Demi Moore, and Kim Basinger ·        Meeting L. Russell Brown ·        Being "inspired" by Loni Anderson ·        Writing his biggest hit "At this Moment" and the story behind the song ·        Writing Brian's favorite BV song "Here Comes The Dawn Again" ·        Releasing his biggest album on Rhino Records ·        Doing promo work in the 1980s ·        Advice from his mother You can learn more about Billy's story, his books, and his music at https://billyvera.com/ Follow him on Facebook for the latest info on his gigs and his weekly radio show: https://www.facebook.com/TheRealBillyVera Treat yourself to music and books by Billy here: https://www.amazon.com/s?k=billy+vera&crid=31CGZ21181YET&sprefix=billy+vera%2Caps%2C102&ref=nb_sb_noss_1 Read more at http://www.permanentrecordpodcast.com/ Visit us at https://www.facebook.com/permrecordpodcast Follow us at https://twitter.com/permrecordpod  Check out some pictures at https://www.instagram.com/permanentrecordpodcast/ So this BlueSky thing looks shiny and new: https://bsky.app/profile/permrecordpod.bsky.social Oh!  Here's another one of these things - Threads: https://www.threads.net/@permanentrecordpodcast Leave a voicemail for Brian & Sarah at (724) 490-8324 or https://www.speakpipe.com/PermRecordPod - we're ready to believe you!

Lenny Kaye has secured his place in rock history as the Patti Smith Group's longtime guitarist, but he also helped define rock history with one of the most influential compilation albums of all time: Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era 1965–1968. To create that 1972 double album, Kaye pulled together a largely obscure collection psychedelic and garage-rock songs that made a new kind of sense together, from the Electric Prunes' throbbing “I Had Too Much To Dream (Last Night)” to the guitar freakery of the Count Five's “Psychotic Reaction” to Sagittarius's gently trippy “My World Fell Down.” Now Kaye has expanded upon his work with a 5-LP Nuggets box released by Rhino on Record Store Day. What were his must-haves this time around? How do these songs hit differently 50-plus years later? How has Nuggets affected Kaye's own music-making, and how do his writing sessions with Patti Smith go?

While you may think of Motown when you first hear Wilson Pickett, this sound is neither from Detroit or its counterpart from Philadelphia.  This is from the deep south with the deep soul of the 2 M's - Memphis and Muscle Shoals.  The Exciting Wilson Pickett was Pickett's third studio album and firmly established his credentials as one of the leading lights of Soul music.    Pickett grew up in Alabama, and like many soul singers at the time he got his start in church.  He had a contentious relationship with his mother who he described as "the baddest woman in my book."  Eventually he went to live with his father - and further honed his singing style - in Detroit.  Many tracks on this album were recorded at Muscle Shoals with a backup band called The Swampers.  Lynyrd Skynyrd would cite them as they "were known to pick a song or two."  The Swampers would tour with Pickett and form an interracial act during a time when this was unusual..Wilson Pickett was known by a number of names including "Wild Wilson" or "Wicked Pickett," and was known for his wild lifestyle.  He would have a number of difficulties with alcohol and cocaine over the decades, which would put him in trouble with relationships and the law.  Wilson Pickett was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1991.Wilson Pickett died of a heart attack in 2006, just weeks shy of his 65th birthday.  The Land of 1,000 DancesThis song was a minor hit in 1963 for Chris, Kenner, but became a top 10 hit for Pickett.  While he doesn't name 1,000 dances (and the name of the song never appears in the lyrics), he does name 16 including the Pony, The Mashed Potato, and The Twist.  You may remember this song from the movie "Forrest Gump."Barefootin'The second track featured in today's podcast is also a remake (originally recorded by Robert Parker), with a faster tempo than the original.  Check out that horn section by The Swampers.99-1/2 Won't DoThis is a slower track based off a gospel track transitioned to a love song.  "I got to have all your love, night and day.  Not just a little part, but all of your heart, sugar, Ninety-nine and a half just won't do."In the Midnight HourThis is a signature song he co-wrote, and also connects with gospel songs - I may meet Jesus soon in the morning, maybe in the midnight hour.  This song was selected for preservation in the National Recording Registry by the Library of Congress for being "culturally, historically, or artistically significant." ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Theme from the television series “Gilligan's Island”This comedy was current in 1966, but we all remember this from reruns on afternoon TV after school. STAFF PICKS:“Over Under Sideways Down” by The YardbirdsBruce brings us a song inspired by Rock Around the Clock by Haley and the Comets.  It came out as a single in May 1966, and was on the charts at the time.  That's Jeff Beck on the lead guitar, and he also plays bass on this track as well.“Sunny Afternoon” by The KinksRob's staff pick made it to #14 on the Billboard charts.  Brothers Ray and Dave Davies formed The Kinks in 1964, and Ray Davies wrote this song.  It is about the massive taxes that the British Labour party was pushing out under Harold Wilson.“You Don't Have to Say You Love Me” by Dusty SpringfieldBrian's staff pick features his favorite female vocalist from the 1960's.  Springfield heard this tune originally in Italian, and had new lyrics written for it.  She cried when she first heard this song with the new lyrics.  A number of artists covered this song, including Elvis Presley.“Sweet Young Thing” by The Chocolate WatchbandWayne features an American garage band from California, who sing about a Peeping Tom spotting his “sweet young thing” at a party.  Wayne found this group off a compilation album called  Nuggets:  Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era 1965-1968. INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:“Jeff's Boogie” by The YardbirdsThis instrumental from the B-side of “Over Under Sideways Down” wraps us up this week's podcast.

As lovers of pop and rock music, we probably all have favourite bands or performers from the Sixties era: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Doors, The Who, The Beach Boys etc etc. Wonderful acts all worthy of our attention. There's a problem....and it's not ubiquity. In focusing on these bands (and other iconic names), there's so many great musical acts who we never paid attention to or have completely forgotten about.   Welcome to episode 126 of Love That Album podcast.   In 1972, music writer (and future guitarist for Patti Smith Band) Lenny Kaye created a hugely influential compilation for Elektra Records called Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965–1968 (to be referred to from here as just Nuggets). It contained 27 forgotten-about pop and short form psychedelic songs. Most of these songs were gems waiting to be rediscovered by music lovers who had become used to other things: Laurel Canyon songwriters, prog, hard rock / proto metal. Many of the songs we have now come to know as "garage rock" were not remembered or appreciated. Lenny Kaye wanted to change that.   Since its original release, there have been a large number of similar compilations, carefully curated from regional one-off hits or great songs that went nowhere. Some comps are even assembled by fans from their extensive 45s collection to share with others. In 1998, Nuggets was expanded to a 4 CD box set containing about 120 songs and a comprehensive book.   For this very special episode, I am joined by Eric Reanimator (host of LTA: The Compilation Edition) to talk about our love of Nuggets. The first half of the show is devoted to our discovery of this music, Lenny Kaye's history, and why this collection is so important to the history of rock and pop. In the second part of the show, we nominate 10 songs from the box set to talk about in detail, their own history and legacy. The beauty of this collection is its diversity. Sure there are songs with fuzzed out guitars that may have been created under the influence of certain substances, but there's glorious harmony laden pop, swaggering blues rock, and wild wig-outs....all from bands you may not know, but may be your next favourite listening experience.    Huge thanks to Eric for joining me on this episode and for all the wonderful episodes he's contributed to LTA over the years.   You can download the show from Spotify, Stitcher or iTunes (search for “Love That Album podcast”) or from the website lovethatalbum.podbean.com   Send the show feedback at rrrkitchen@yahoo.com.au (written or mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbum.   If you’d consider writing an iTunes review we’d be immensely grateful. However, it’d be even better if you told a friend about the podcast – at a barbecue, over coffee, while hitting a six, on social media….whatever way you choose, consider me grateful.   If you enjoy what you hear, please tell a friend or ten to tune in.

The thunderous heart of Australia's greatest rock'n'roll band You Am I, drummer Rusty Hopkinson, dons his professor's cap and guides us through a potted history of garage rock and early psychedelia through the seminal Lenny Kaye compiled box set 'Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era' (1972). We talk about whether or not you need drugs to appreciate psychedelic rock, the ongoing musical conversation between Britain and the US, the influence of the record on some classic You Am I tracks, how this compilation helped birth punk rock and what is at the heart of all great rock'n'roll. Plus, Rusty recalls what it was like touring with the Replacements on their recent final shows, cutting the new YAI record at the Daptone studios in New York and why the band aren't purists. My Favorite Album is a podcast unpacking the great works of pop music. Each episode features a different songwriter or musician discussing their favorite album of all time - their history with it, the making of the album, individual songs and the album's influence on their own music.Jeremy Dylan is a filmmaker, journalist and photographer from Sydney, Australia who has worked in the music industry since 2007. He directed the the feature music documentary Jim Lauderdale: The King of Broken Hearts (out now!) and the feature film Benjamin Sniddlegrass and the Cauldron of Penguins, in addition to many commercials and music videos.
